About us
Nikhef is het Nationaal instituut voor subatomaire fysica. Wij doen onderzoek naar de kleinste deeltjes in de natuur met behulp van versnellers zoals de LHC bij CERN in Genève. Nikhef is the Dutch National Institute for Subatomic Physics. We do research into nature's smallest particles with accelerators such as the LHC at CERN in Geneva.

After a wonderful 50th anniversary year in 2025, the management and staff of the National Institute for Subatomic Physics Nikhef wish you a prosperous 2026. The institute will be closed from 25 December to 1 January for Christmas and New Year. From 2 January, the quest to discover the deepest laws of physics will continue. https://lnkd.in/es9VWBEU

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming an indispensable technology in particle and astroparticle physics. To accelerate scientific discovery, Nikhef is establishing a dedicated AI R&D group to enable more, faster and better science across all its research programmes. https://lnkd.in/eb-BXGGe

Theoretisch natuurkundige Jordy de Vries van de UvA en Nikhef ontvangt een ERC-beurs voor precisieberekeningen aan ondermeer drie vormen van bètaverval. Dat zou zonder grotere versnellers toch een aantal fysische raadsels kunnen beantwoorden. https://lnkd.in/e6bz8PC4

The interaction of the heaviest known particles may offer insight into processes beyond the reach of existing accelerators. NWO is funding new research into the dance of top quarks with Higgs particles. https://lnkd.in/euyppvkc CERN
