The high energy physics group from the department of physics, University of Jammu, was recognised as part of the international team awarded the Breakthrough Prize 2025 in Fundamental Physics — referred to as the “Oscars of Science”.

A special media interaction was organised at the university, with the high energy physics group sharing insights into their contribution to CERN’s ALICE experiment and the broader impact of the work.
