LHCb Masterclass
- Masterclasses
Once again, the International Masterclasses will take place this year with the participation of the third large LHC experiment, LHCb. In addition to the universal detectors ATLAS and CMS, LHCb was built as a precision detector. Extremely good spatial, momentum and time resolutions allow the LHCb collaboration to study extremely rare decays and time-resolved measurements of matter-antimatter oscillations. This involves both measuring the parameters of the standard model with unprecedented precision and searching for new, previously unknown particles in quantum fluctuations.



![3D visualisation of human neuronal tissue reconstructed by multi-scale X-ray phase contrast tomography. Neuronal cell nuclei are shown in yellow for the granule neurons in the dentate gyrus region of the hippocampus. Blood vessels are shown in red. By changing the X-ray optical magnification in the multi-scale recordings, one can zoom into regions-of-interest (red ovals). In these scans the resolution is high enough to resolve sub-structures of the nucleus, associated with different DNA packing regimes.
