Italy will build a new collider

Italy has announced plans to build a new collider, in which the electrons will collide with positrons. As it became known, the new collider will use parts from American collider PEP-II, who stopped working in 2009.

According to preliminary data, budget SuperB collider will reach 400 million euros, and the processes it will study the CP-symmetry violation - a phenomenon for which in 2008 was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics.

Currently, major work on the study of CP-symmetry violation shall be held in Japan - it works collider KEKB.
