Modern cosmology and gravitation Theoretical Physics String/M Theory, Gravity and Supergravity Theoretical Partical Physics Quantum and Classical Chaos Condensed Matter Nano-Science Fusion Plasma Physics Superconductor, Strongly correlated system Laser-plasma Interactions Spintronics, Functional Materials Low-temperature Plasma Technology Atomic and Molecular Physics Plasma Physics Nuclear and Particle Physics Electron Collision High Energy Physics Atomic and Cold atomic Physics Nuclear Physics Quantum Commun.,Quantum computation Phenomenology of Particle Physics Optics and Quantum Information Electronics Technology and Detector Optics Optics Engineering Quantum Information Nuclear Electronics High-speed Mass Data Acquisition Techniques New Detection Techniques and Methods Ming Shao / USTC

4 Brief history of CPPT 1958 the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) was founded s our laboratory was established the first Multiple Proportional Wire Chamber was constructed in China s we joined international collaborations: LEP-L3, LHC-CMS, BEPC-BES, KEKB-Belle, etc the CAS Key Lab of Particle Detection & Electronics was established the full TOF detector was successfully installed in RHIC-STAR the Center of Particle Physics & Technology was established the Lab was promoted as the National Key Lab of Particle Detection & Electronics of CAS and now under construction. Now, we joined over 10 collaborations working on many research fields. Ming Shao / USTC 4

21 International Collaborations Guest Professors: Horst Stöcker, Nu Xu, Hans Geog Ritter, Zhangbu Xu, Xinnian Wang, Huanzhong Huang, Fuqiang Wang, Jianping Chen Master Chair Professorship: Bin Zhou Near future: Joint Education & Research Center between CPPT & UoM Joint Education & Research Center between USTC & Tsukuba Univ. Looking forward for more collaborations in the future Joint projects: Detector R&D, Data analysis, Electronics Current projects: gaseous detector / scintillation detector Long term plan & interest: semiconductor / silicon technology & electronics Issues & status: funding and man-power Funding from CPPT itself can not offer continuous collaboration with JINR. A big particle physics group is not able to join NICA. People working for STAR focus on erhic upgrade, CBM or other non-accelerator projects. Electronics group is involved in several applied projects, attitude is uncertain. Ming Shao / USTC 21
