CERN Summer Students Programme • Each summer, several physics and engineering students from Croatia participate in the CERN Summer Student Programme • Usually one financed by CERN and the rest by MZOS • Nearly 40 students in the last 10 years • We have to select the best from many interested candidates: • > 20 candidates for 3 places in 2013 • Some past student projects • New detector testing (pixel, GEM, …) • LHC Physics analysis • Accelerator control electronics • Nuclear Physics experiments • .and much much more…
Future projects at CERN • LHC running expected till ~ 2030 through several energy & luminosity upgrades • Many smaller size projects (e.g. anti-matter gravity) • Farther future options at the energy frontier: V. Brigljević Nuclear, Particle and Astroparticle Physics in Croatia
