Nordic Grid activities strengthen the WLCG CERN Courier 46/7 CERN Courier 46/7 Nordic countries have participated in Grid developments at CERN since the beginning, p g g although at the early stages they already opted for developing their own middleware. Most Nordic Grid projects now use the Advanced Resource Connector (ARC), developed by NorduGrid, while some also use the gLite middleware deployed by the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) project. Several sites are involved both in NorduGrid and in projects such as EGEE, and therefore deploy both ARC and gLite. Lit

Among the open questions, LHC may reveal the origin of particle masses, explain dark matter, investigate extra space dimensions, and help understand the origin of matter in the Universe. Several aspects of LHC physics touch on the interface dimensions and help understand the origin of matter in the Universe Several aspects of LHC physics touch on the interface between particle physics and cosmology. In a sense, particle physics is the science of matter, energy, space and time. Links: HEPP BigBang Machine
