Case Studies

The following examples illustrate the ways in which technologies originating in the Particle Physics community find their way into industry:

• Axomic – Image database management for architectural practices
• deltaDOT – From collision tracking to high throughput screening, drug discovery and proteomics 
• Quadstone – data mining for customer relationship management systems e.g. Tesco cards 
• Applications of accelerators in healthcare and semiconductors – many thousands per year of accelerators are used in cancer treatment, semiconductor production and synchrotrons 
• Medical imaging – billions of pounds per year market in PET, CT and MRI based on high energy physics technologies. 
• Tesla Engineering – magnets for LHC enhance capability for MRI etc.
