1 Introduction

Greetings! This report is a summary of the activities of our members during the 2006-2007 year.The research activities will be described here, while the actual lengthy lists of publications andseminars will be made separately available.

Usual warning: since the Centre is primarily devoted to research and the principal members all havefaculty positions in the Physics Department, academic matters, teaching, funding and consultingactivities are identical and will not be repeated here. Please consult the annual report of the PhysicsDepartment for details.

Please also note that the Centre for High Energy Physics (CHEP) is to be distinguished from theCHEP/Astro consortium. The former is our real physics research entity and the subject of thisreport while the latter is the association of the CHEP groups with the local McGill Astrophysicsgroups for managing the computer networks of all our groups under one single organization. Sincethe Astrophysics groups came later, they naturally joined our technical infrastructure to the ad-vantage of all. On the physics Department webpages, both entities (CHEP and Astro) are listedtogether for theses organisatory reasons and also because so many of the research interests overlap,although no formal integration has yet been pursued.

2 Our Centre

Subatomic physics is at the leading edge of fundamental research. It addresses essentially thestructure of matter and its interactions. All the known particles of matter can be described ascombinations of a very few building blocks, the quarks and the leptons, representing 2 families of 6particles. Four types of forces have been identified in nature: gravitational, electromagnetic, strongand weak. Illustrating examples could be planetary systems, light emission from atoms, existenceof nuclei or slow nuclear disintegrations, respectively. Two of the great scientific achievementsof the past decades have been the discovery of the 6th quark “top”, and the unification of theelectromagnetic and weak interactions as manifestations of a single electro-weak process. Furtherpromising unification e!orts are currently being done to include the strong interaction and later ongravitation.

This bold program is carried out experimentally in a few large international collaborations. Ourexperimental groups are involved in the foremost projects at research centers in the USA andEurope. They contribute significantly to all steps of the projects, from detector construction viadetailed data analysis to interpretation and understanding of the results. The theoretical approachis also extremely strong and fully complementary. It moreover can be shown that very high energyphenomena, in astrophysics or cosmology, are ultimately but other aspects of our research axes andtherefore are also investigated. The scales and complexity of the field, but also the many scientificand technical ramifications represent the unique characteristics of our Centre and strengthens itsdynamics as a research entity.

Our members endeavor to use the Centre to deepen our research e!orts, to create an even morestimulating environment for extended collaborations and research, to improve recruitment andformation of young researchers and graduate students, and to coordinate all our common activities.This is being achieved through seminar series, conference and visitor programs, computer networkunification, sharing of laboratories and equipment, extensive exchanges of experience and know-how, and development of applications. The “McGill Centre for High Energy Physics” has an almost


20-year long tradition, was already re-structured considerably in 1995 and underwent ia few yearsago another transformation as several new young faculty members joined our e!orts and promotednew directions.

This mission statement is essentially identical to the one from the previous years. Several changesare of course happening continuously in the course of the research, but in our long range programthey a!ect but little the main lines of research. For this reasons, in this year’s report, instead ofproviding major repetitions, the general outlines of our research work will be skipped altogetherand only the highlights will be listed for our numerous axes of research.

3 Composition of the Centre

The Centre membership spans large areas of studies in the fields of high energy physics, particlephysics, cosmology, astrophysics and many aspects of nuclear physics. In the following tables, thelists of members are presented, each roughly identified by his/her experimental (X) or theoretical(T) orientation, as well as the general domains of high-energy physics (HEP), nuclear physics (NP)or astro-particle physics (Astro).

5 Seminars 2006-2007

The Centre sponsors five interleaving seminar series instrumental in the training of researchers:

• A formal seminar series within the Centre attracts speakers from across Canada, the UnitedStates and European visitors to North America. The seminars are an integral component ofour activity and are of great value to all members of the Centre, especially to our studentsand postdoctoral researchers. They are also organized jointly with the Particle Physics groupof the Universite de Montreal, so that further exchanges are generated.

• A popular series is the weekly “pizza lunch” seminar, usually featuring a Centre theorymember discussing his or her current research in an informal atmosphere encouraging studentparticipation.

• Another series is the “Wednesday Meetings” seminar, where all members of our experimentalteams get together and discuss their research.

• Our nuclear physics theory colleagues also maintain frequent seminars where guests fromoutside are invited to present and share their research.

• Finally, a few major workshops and large meetings are now being initiated by members ofour Centre on outstanding topics.

These seminars also provide a familiar setting in which graduate students and postdoctoral re-searchers gain valuable experience in presenting their work. All of our students, as well as mostof our visitors give at least one of these talks sometime during their programme. Our permanentmembers are also contributing to the series.

The list of seminars are available on the web underhttp://www.physics.mcgill.ca/chep/reports/chep 20062007 seminars.html


6 Publications (2006)

Publications, together with the training of our students and postdocs, are one of the most importantelements of research, because they stimulate, guide and set goals to our undertakings.

The publications are available on the web underhttp://www.physics.mcgill.ca/chep/reports/chep 20062007 publications.html
