It will be possible to store muon beams with central momentum from 1 GeV/c to 6 GeV/c with a momentum acceptance of 16%. The nuSTORM facility will have the capability to: ,- ,- • Serve a definitive neutrino-nucleus scattering programme with uniquely well-characterised ν e and ν µ beams; • Allow searches for light sterile neutrinos with the exquisite sensitivity necessary to go beyond the reach of the FNAL Short Baseline Neutrino programme; and • Provide the technology test-bed required for the development of muon beams capable of serving as the basis for a multi-TeV lepton-antilepton (muon) collider.

Wherever you take your talents next, fellow Imperial 5,000 guests from over alumni will be nearby. Almost every country and 100 nations to our annual region of the world has its own Imperial alumni association and they will be delighted to welcome Postgraduate Award you as the newest members of the Imperial family. Ceremonies held in the Today is all about your wonderful achievements. Enjoy your moment. Whatever path you take next, our splendour of the best wishes go with you. Royal Albert Hall. Warm regards, As we celebrate our new graduates’ remarkable achievements at Imperial, we reflect not only on academic distinctions already attained, but also on the opportunities and challenges to come, the goals we are yet to accomplish, the rewards still to be reaped. Sir Keith O’Nions Imperial did not become one of the world’s great universities by letting its students off lightly. Postgraduate study at Imperial requires remarkable intellectual prowess, sustained hard work and exceptional creative thinking. Not everyone has what it takes, but today’s graduates do. Thank you for choosing to bring your extraordinary talents here and enriching our community. I also wish to extend a special thanks to the family and friends here today who have provided invaluable support, guidance and advice over many years of study.

    Description of Ph.D. project in EXSS for Oct 2021 Entry Project title: Quantum Cascade Laser s-SNOM for intracellular imaging Principal Prof Chris Phillips Project No: CCP_1 Supervisor: Email: [email protected] Telephone x47575 Other Dr Holger Auner, Prof Alexandra Porter, Prof Charles Coombes. supervisors: Aims of the project: Very recently we gave found out how to use a Solid- State near field imaging technique, so- called s-SNOM, to look inside cells for the first time. It beats the diffraction limits of ordinary microscopy by a factor of ~3000, and the spatial resolution it gives (~3nm) already rivals the very best of electron microscopy at a fraction of the time effort and cost. We believe it has the potential to transform the biomedical sciences. We have shown how it can image the organelles inside a cell optically for the first time first time ever. Also , because it works at mid-IR wavelengths where chemical bonds have characteristic vibrational absorption bands that give them spectral “fingerprints” , the technique can be used to provide nanoscal chemical maps that, e.g. reveal where drugs bind inside the cell. The initial aims of the project will be to trail and develop the technology with Imperial cinicians, with a focus on themes, (1) the pathology pf Breast Cancer, (2) Drug resistance in multiple myeloma, and (3) the nanoscale causes of osteporosis. However, the potential applications are limitless and we will likely establish more collaborations as the programme progresses. Also Recent developments in the field of quantum imaging have demonstrated new methods of imaging objects by detecting photons that have not actually interacted with it.

    The Blackett Laboratory Leading Physics Research and Education in the Heart of London SPACE & ATMOSPHERIC PG RESEARCH 1st YEAR UG PHYSICS SYMPOSIUM OPEN DAY About The Blackett Laboratory at Imperial College London is at the forefront of physics research and education. The internationally-leading research programme actively fosters the development of new knowledge and new areas of technology. We work hard to promote a culture of transparency and fairness recognised by being twice recipients of the Silver Swan and Juno Championship Awards. The Department offers three year BSc and four year MSci physics programmes including physics with: Theoretical Physics, a Year in Europe, Music Performance CONDENSED and Science Education. We also offer nine Master’s level taught postgraduate courses, and MATTER THEORY are associated with a number of Centres for Doctoral Training leading directly to PhD studies. We host on average: 850 undergraduate students; 360 postgraduate research students and 120 post graduate masters students; 160 postdoctoral researchers; 122 academic staff; 100 technical and support staff The undergraduate and post graduate student bodies are active members of our community who engage with a range of societies, social events and departmental committees. THEORETICAL PHYSICS Career Destinations All students are offered a broad range of professional skills training to prepare them for the world outside university. Our graduates are highly sought after for their analytic and problem solving skills. On average 30% of our graduates take up employment in the finance and management sector, just under 50% of our exiting graduates go on to further study, at Masters or PhD level. The remaining graduates enter business, industry or the education sector.
