Frascati National Laboratories participates with a special open-day and a rich program of guided tours. Appointment on Friday 12th of April 2019 from 2.30 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the framework of the event “Scienza In Giro”.

From the 1st to the 5th of April Frascati National Laboratories will host the 9th edition of INSPYRE – International School on Modern Physics and Research – the international school in English language addressed to students in their last year of high school from all over the world.

On March 25 11:44 CET, 2019, electron-positron collisions have restarted at the SuperKEKB collider at the KEK laboratory in Tsukuba (Japan). The Belle II experiment has now kicked off its physics data taking with a fully equipped detector.

The new quadrupoles for the DAFNE collider interaction section are ready to be installed on the machine. These magnets will provide focusing the beams interacting in the vertical plane and are very important to enable e+e– colliders to reach high luminosities. 

For the first time LHCb measured the difference between matter and antimatter in D0 mesons, particles composed of a charm quark and an up antiquark. The difference in the behaviour of matter and antimatter, known as CP violation, is one of the key processes to understand why the Universe

The Frascati National Laboratories offer to 5 undergraduate or graduate students the opportunity to carry out research in an experimental group during the summer.
