SuperKamiokande
Physics; Particle physics
This experiment, located in the Kamioka mine in Japan, is the successor to the smaller Kamiokande experiment. SuperKamiokande provided compelling evidence for neutrino oscillations in neutrinos ...
TeV Energy Superconducting Linear Accelerator (TESLA)
Physics; Particle physics
A proposal for a next-generation linear collider made by an international collaboration based at DESY.
Tevatron
Physics; Particle physics
A 2 TeV proton on anti-proton collider that operates at Fermilab in Batavia, Illinois. The top quark was discovered using this accelerator.
Underground Nucleon decay and Neutrino Observatory (UNO)
Physics; Particle physics
A proposed Cherenkov detector experiment to search for proton decay, and neutrino oscillations.
Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS)
Physics; Particle physics
A proposed experiment, based in the Arizona desert, that will study gamma rays of slightly higher energy than the GLAST experiment.
Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP)
Physics; Particle physics
These as yet undiscovered particles are a leading candidate for dark matter.
