Involvement in Nuclear Physics Experiments
INFN Grid is involved in the large international physics experiments centered around CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC): ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb. In support of these experiments, which will generate huge amounts of data and require intensive computing power, the INFN Grid infrastructure is being continually monitored, tested, challenged, and enhanced.
ECGI is a workgroup representing the Italian contribution to the development of the EGEE/LCG Grid Middleware in terms of testing the new gLite software and providing relevant user documentation.

Famous quotes containing the words involvement in, involvement, nuclear, physics and/or experiments:
“Not only do our wives need support, but our children need our deep involvement in their lives. If this period [the early years] of primitive needs and primitive caretaking passes without us, it is lost forever. We can be involved in other ways, but never again on this profoundly intimate level.”
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
“It may be tempting to focus on the fact that, even among those who support equality, men’s involvement as fathers remains a far distance from what most women want and most children need. Yet it is also important to acknowledge how far and how fast many men have moved towards a pattern that not long ago virtually all men considered anathema.”
—Katherine Gerson (20th century)
“Could it not be that just at the moment masculinity has brought us to the brink of nuclear destruction or ecological suicide, women are beginning to rise in response to the Mother’s call to save her planet and create instead the next stage of evolution? Can our revolution mean anything else than the reversion of social and economic control to Her representatives among Womankind, and the resumption of Her worship on the face of the Earth? Do we dare demand less?”
—Jane Alpert (b. 1947)
“Although philosophers generally believe in laws and deny causes, explanatory practice in physics is just the reverse.”
—Nancy Cartwright (b. 1945)
“My experiments did not turn out quite like yours, Henry. But science, like love, has her little surprises.”
—William Hurlbut (1883–?)
