A couple of weeks ago I had fun doing a podcast with Robinson Erhardt where we discussed the above and a few other things. Hopefully it will give you some insights into particle physics and how we do it, as well as (unintentionally as I hadn’t quite clocked that there would be video) into my son’s bedroom, which is my home office while he’s at Uni.
Thanks Robinson for the invite and chat.

Another article (the first in a while) for BBC Science Focus.
A feature on this with six different pieces (by me and five colleagues) in New Scientist .
Hmm. That link above seems to only work from UCL (or I guess any institution with a subscription to the New Scientist. This link might be better for you!
