Particle Physics in the United States

Particle physics is both global and local. Scientists, engineers, and technicians at over 200 universities, institutes, and laboratories throughout the U.S. are working in partnership with their international colleagues to build hightech tools and components, conduct scientific research, and train and educate the next generation of innovators. Valuing equity, diversity, and inclusion, the field is committed to increasing participation of underrepresented groups. Particle physics activities in the U.S. attract some of the best scientists from around the world. Map indicates institutions receiving federal research funding.
