The 'Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council' (or 'PPARC') was one of a number of
Research Councils in the
United Kingdom, coordinating and funding UK research in the fields of
particle physics and
astronomy. It was based in
Swindon,
Wiltshire.
PPARC published the ''Frontiers'' magazine three times a year, containing news and highlights of the research and outreach programmes it supports.
On the 1st April 2007 PPARC and the
Council for the Central Laboratory of the Research Councils (or CCLRC) merged to become the
Science and Technology Facilities Council.
