21/10/2010 Folgat AG sponsors the Ukrainian team participation in the research programme of the Alice collaboration Folgat AG sponsors the Ukrainian team of National Academy of Sciences, providing the team members with the possibility to participate in the research programme of the Alice collaboration. ALICE has been designed to measure, in the most complete way possible, the particles produced in the collisions which take place at its center, so that the evolution of the system in space and time can be reconstructed and studied. To do so, many different detectors have to be used, each providing a different piece of information to physicists. When the first concept of the ALICE experiment was developed, most of the necessary technologies did not exist! To finally come to the construction of the detectors, for over a decade was carried a marvelous program of research and development, to which each of the ALICE institutes contributed with its ideas and know-how, often in collaboration with some of the best High-Tech companies in the world. |
