A number of educational based sites concerning the subject of physics can be found listed under the Educational Links page.   Big Bang Science - A web version of PPARC's most popular publication, which introduces particle physics, and especially the UK's role at CERN.   CCLRC - The Council for the Central Laboratory of the Research Council supports a wide-ranging research programme, including particle physics and space science.   CERN - The world's leading laboratory for particle physics and the major centre for UK research in this field.   DESY - The German national laboratory at Hamburg, home to HERA, the world's only electron-proton collider.   European Particle Physics Public Outreach Network - a European-wide network of professional particle physicists which will act as a conduit for providing information and resources useful in communicating particle physics to the public and to schools.   Guided tour of Fermilab - A virtual tour of this major US particle physics lab, including descriptions of how accelerators and particle detectors work. Also links to the Education Office where you can find out about more about the many education projects at Fermilab.   Identifying interesting events at LEP - An interactive guide to working out what's happening in events at CERN's major particle collider, including various challenges with multiple-choice answers.   More on Science at SLAC - Why do we need high energy beams? What is a linear accelerator? Answers to these and other questions.   National Particle Physics Masterclass 1999 - The High Energy Physics Group of the Institute of Physics will be organising a series of one-day Masterclasses in particle physics for 1999. The classes, which are aimed at sixthformers studying physics, will be held at universities and research laboratories throughout the country.   Particle Physics in the UK - The new web site with news and information about particle physics, from schools to journalists to professional physicists.   PPARC - Find out about the activities of the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council. The site also has pointers to other related web sites.   QCD and Particle Structure Network - is coordinated by Durham University, is one of the largest ever funded under this scheme. It brings together more than 100 particle physics theorists from 18 European institutions including those from three other UK Universities, Cambridge, Edinburgh and Manchester. The Network held its inaugural meeting at Durhamlast month.   SLAC - The Stanford Linear Accelerator Centre in California, site of the 2 mile long linear electron accelerator. There is good introductory material under 'More on Science' at SLAC
