This document provides a quantitative overview of Swiss participation in high-energy physics research and experiments, alongside institutional resource allocation. It includes: Tables of participation in experiments across major facilities and collaborations, including: CERN programmes (SPS, LEAR, LEP, LHC experiments such as CMS, ATLAS, LHCb, ALICE) - CERN R&D projects - External laboratories (DESY, SLAC, BNL, PSI, Saclay) - Breakdown by Swiss institutions, including: Universities (Basel, Bern, Fribourg, Geneva, Lausanne, Neuchâtel, Zurich) - Federal institutes (ETH Zürich, EPFL) - Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) Totals and distributions of participation in experimental collaborations Non-accelerator physics activities, such as: -Dark matter detection -Double beta decay -Cosmic rays and antimatter experiments -Human resources data, including: Number of physicists (particle and nuclear) -Academic staff (professors, postdocs, graduate students) -Institutional distribution of personnel -Financial data, including: Grants (excluding salaries) -Funding per physicist -Comparative funding across research domains (particle physics, nuclear physics, condensed matter, etc.) -The document serves as a statistical snapshot of Swiss involvement in high-energy physics, combining participation, manpower, and financial indicators.
