Installation of the Australian Research Council will help physicists more contribute to one of the greatest scientific experiments in the world, the large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe.
Geoff Taylor Professor of the University of Melbourne is head of the new centre and said that it would be a boost to the scientific reputation of the Australia.
"[What] Australia is known for is astronomy, especially for radio astronomy," he said.
"It is a major area of physics internationally and this centre will allow us to be full members internationally."
The large Hadron Collider is the particle accelerator more great world, it is located 27 kilometres long tunnel buried deep under the French Swiss border.
The machine Brecht particles together at high speed in an attempt to recreate the Big Bang.
It is hoped that the machine will reveal some secrets of the universe, including the mysterious Higgs boson or particle of God which gives the mass of particles.
