Read more

With the help of CHRISP, researchers are using the internationally most powerful source of ultracold neutrons to investigate how our universe is structured. They determine, for example, fundamental natural constants with the highest precision and search for deviations in the current standard model of particle physics. They also develop and test detectors for experiments at PSI, for space missions and for the European research centre CERN in Geneva.

Magnetically shielded from the rest of the world

Research Using Neutrons Matter and Material Particle physics CHRISP

At the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI, researchers together with a company have constructed a room that is one of the best magnetically shielded places on the earth. With its help, they want to solve the last mysteries of matter and answer a fundamental question: Why does matter - and thus why do we - exist at all?
