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.

“I recommend limiting one’s involvement in other people’s lives to a pleasantly scant minimum. This may seem too stoical a position in these madly passionate times, but madly passionate people rarely make good on their madly passionate promises.”
—Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

“You can’t be a Real Country unless you have A BEER and an airline—it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a BEER.”
—Frank Zappa (1940–1993)
“We must be physicists in order ... to be creative since so far codes of values and ideals have been constructed in ignorance of physics or even in contradiction to physics.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“My experiments did not turn out quite like yours, Henry. But science, like love, has her little surprises.”
—William Hurlbut (1883–?)
