Department of Basic Sciences

High Energy Particle Physics (HEPP) Research Group

The competent academic and technical staff the HEPP Research Group are involved in advanced studies on High Energy Physics, Particle Physics, Particle Detectors and Particle Accelerators. 

The local laboratory infrastructure to conduct R&D in these fields together with various externally funded projects (TÜBİTAK, TENMAK, TÜSEB) and memberships in world-class international research collaborations offer unique opportunities to PhD students as well.

Istinye University is a member of four (ATLAS, CAST, DRD1, FCC) collaborations at CERN, the European Particle Physics Laboratory, one (BESIII) experiment at the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and one (sr-EDM) experiment under preparation at the US Brookhaven National Laboratory as well as the COST action CosmicWISPers.
