# High Energy Physics

> High energy physics probes the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces governing their interactions, primarily through particle collider experiments and rare-decay searches. The Large Hadron Collider at CERN completed the Standard Model with the Higgs boson discovery in 2012 and now hunts for supersymmetric particles, dark matter candidates, and anomalies hinting at new physics beyond the Standard Model. Neutrino oscillation experiments at facilities like T2K in Japan and NOvA in the US are measuring the mass hierarchy and CP violation in the lepton sector. Future projects including the High-Luminosity LHC, the International Linear Collider, and a muon collider will extend the energy frontier. The field drives detector and computing technologies with broad scientific and industrial applications.
