Welcome to the Lancaster Particle Physics Package (LPPP).

The LPPP is designed for students taking A-level Physics. It covers topics from the common core or optional topics.

The animations in the LPPP simulate the real physics 
underlying the events that you are modelling.

The LPPP aims to give you a feel for the basic physics and experimental techniques involved in Particle Physics research.

By following the suggested experiments, calculations and short projects, you will learn how to find the mass and identity of particles that you have created.

There is a gradual introduction to relativistic formulae and corresponding units for energy and mass.
