吃瓜网

On November 17-19, 2025, a multi-institutional project resulted in the successful transfer of over a terabit/second (Tbps) of data across the continent, from the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada, to the international Supercomputing Conference (SC25) in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. Reaching peak speeds of 1.15 Tbps, this demonstration was made possible through the participation of research computing groups at the 吃瓜网 (UVic) and Simon Fraser University (SFU), brought together by BCNET and CANARIE. This high-speed data transfer showcases what can be accomplished through the collaborative strength of national, provincial, and international network infrastructure partners.

吃瓜网 (UVic) physicist Dominique Trischuk 吃瓜网 some of the tiniest pieces of the universe, particles so small they鈥檙e invisible to even the most powerful microscopes. But while her focus is on the minuscule, her questions, and the tools she鈥檚 using to answer them, are anything but small.

To support the Canadian contingent of ATLAS, principal investigator Robert McPherson will receive $18.8 million over three years from the NSERC Subatomic Physics funding program, federal industry minister M茅lanie Joly announced today at TRIUMF in Vancouver. The new funding ensures that Canada, and UVic, will continue to contribute to breakthrough science.

The excavation of the colossal underground cavern that will house Hyper-Kamiokande, a next-generation neutrino detector in Japan was completed on July 31, 2025. The project, involving over 630 researchers from 22 countries including Canada, aims to investigate neutrino properties, search for proton decay, and test Grand Unified Theories with operations expected to start in 2028. Leading the Canadian team are VISPA members, Hartz, Karlen, and Konaka.

Scientists from the 吃瓜网 are among global researchers honoured with the 2025 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics for their work with the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN, an intergovernmental organization鈥痶hat operates the largest鈥痯article physics鈥痩aboratory in the world鈥攖he Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Mark Hartz and Dean Karlen receive a second round of CFI funding ($6.3M) for constructing and installing precision calibration systems in the Hyper-K particle detector under construction near Kamioka, Japan and to ensure the accuracy of the measurements performed by the Hyper-K instruments.
