Diamond is often involved in events organised by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) throughout the year. These can be found listed below. STFC also have their own wide range of exciting opportunities for schools and the public. To find out more about these please visit the RAL activities webpage.
Particle Physics Masterclass (KS5)
RAL's Particle Physics Masterclass is a series of one-day events for sixth form students and their teachers, lead by particle physics researchers. These classes provide excellent support for the material on Particle Physics which is in many 16+ curricula.
The Masterclasses at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) provide the chance to hear talks by leading Particle Physicists from RAL and CERN, a tour of one of our particle accelerators (the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source and Diamond Light Source) and use data from the Large Hadron Collider to find a Higgs Boson with staff from RAL’s prestigious Particle Physics Department.
This event runs in March each year over 4 days; 3 in person days and 1 online day, (each school group visit is for one of the days). For more information and to find out when registration opens please see the STFC Eventbrite page.
Diamond Light Source is the UK's national synchrotron science facility, located at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire.
