CaLIPSO

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful nuclear imaging technique used widely nowadays in oncology, cardiology and neuropsychiatry. The PET technology consists in injecting the patient with a radioactive tracer, of interest to probe a biochemical process.

Detectors for linear collider

FELICE (acronym for "Future Electron LInear Collider Experiment") is a group of physicists and engineers working for the physics and detectors at the ILC (International Linear Collider).

GBAR

Aims: One of the fundamental questions of today’s physics concerns the action of gravity upon antimatter. No experimental direct measurement had been successfully performed with antimatter particles in the 2010's.
