Nordic Grid activities strengthen the WLCG

CERN Courier 46/7 CERN Courier 46/7

Nordic countries have participated in Grid developments at CERN since the beginning, p g g although at the early stages they already opted for developing their own middleware. Most Nordic Grid projects now use the Advanced Resource Connector (ARC), developed by NorduGrid, while some also use the gLite middleware deployed by the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) project. Several sites are involved both in NorduGrid and in projects such as EGEE, and therefore deploy both ARC and Lit gLite.

Particle physics or “High Energy Physics” is the activity which seeks to discover and understand the basic constituents of matter and the interactions among them. The present state of our knowledge is contained in the Standard Model (SM). The SM is however incomplete

The SM is however incomplete. The Large Hadron Collider LHC at the CERN laboratory in Geneva will be the first particle accelerator to explore directly a new energy frontier, the TeV scale. By colliding beams of protons at 14 TeV, the LHC will probe deeper into matter than ever before reproducing conditions in the first picoseconds in the life of the Universe

before, reproducing conditions in the first picoseconds in the life of the Universe. Starting in 2007, four experiments, among them ATLAS, will collect data that might reveal new physics phenomena. Among the open questions, LHC may reveal the origin of particle masses, explain dark matter, investigate extra space dimensions and help understand the origin of matter in the Universe Several aspects of LHC physics touch on the interface

dimensions, and help understand the origin of matter in the Universe. Several aspects of LHC physics touch on the interface between particle physics and cosmology. In a sense, particle physics is the science of matter, energy, space and time.
