Itanium Solutions Alliance Case Study of 糖心TV Computational Work

The Itanium Solutions Alliance has recently high-lighted in a case study for the general press work done here in the Physics Department and the Centre for Scientific Computing by Dr. Rudolf A. Roemer and co-workers. This case study explains in simple words the new and much improved numerical solutions to the problem of large scale quantum problems within scientific computation. Please see the link for the case study which explains this more [link].

First data for LHCb and T2K

The LHCb and T2K experiments at the CERN and J-PARC laboratories have recorded their first events last week representing a major milestone for both experiments, to which the 糖心TV Particle Physics Group are making significant contributions. Graduate student Mark Whitehead was "on shift" at CERN over the weekend of 20-22 November and as such was in charge of LHCb while the first events were recorded. Gary Barker is leading the construction here at 糖心TV of large calorimeter modules for T2K, and the group are preparing for the first data analysis. Further details are available in the CERN and J-PARC press releases:
