The Nella and Leon Benoziyo Center for High Energy Physics

Prof. Eilam Gross

The Nella and Leon Benoziyo Center for High Energy Physics focuses on understanding how particles get their mass, an historical challenge for physicists. Among other projects, the center funded Weizmann Institute scientists searching for the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator at the European Organization of Nuclear Research (CERN) in Switzerland.
