Prof Terry Wyatt


My research work is in the field of experimental particle physics. I am a member of the particle physics group at the University of Manchester.

I work on the experiment at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider in Fermilab, near to Chicago, U.S. Here is some information about the Manchester group on DØ.

In addition I currently chair the LHC experiments committee (LHCC) at CERN and am a member of the CERN Scientific Policy Committee (SPC), and the CERN Research Board.


I can normally be contacted in Room 6.22 of the Schuster Lab at the University of Manchester:

If you really insist on a Manchester email address then send email to userid: Terry.Wyatt at the mailserver manchester.ac.uk but the response may be slower

From January 2002 to August 2007 I was on sabbatical from the Particle Physics Group at Manchester University


December 2004-September 2007: I was based at Fermilab, Batavia 60510, Illinois, US.

I was spokesperson of the experiment at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider in Fermilab, near to Chicago, U.S.


April 2003-March 2006: I held a PPARC Senior Research Fellowship and split my time between Fermilab and Manchester.


January 2002-March 2003: I was employed as a guest scientist at Fermilab Illinois, US, on Leave of Absence from the University of Manchester.

I used to work with the OPAL experiment at the electron-positron collider, LEP in CERN, near to Geneva, Switzerland.


I make quite a lot of effort to promote the public understanding of science.

For example: Identifying Interesting Events at LEP is a set of web pages I wrote for the UK national masterclass in particle physics.
The aim of these pages is to allow you to identify for yourself some interesting particle physics interactions or "events". These events have been seen using the OPAL experiment at CERN, near to Geneva. These web pages were translated into various european languages as part of the international masterclass in particle physics.
