Last chance to get the early booking discount

TUESDAY 7 FEBRUARY | 6-7pm GMT | 1-2pm EST | ON-DEMAND Join particle physicist Clara Nellist, for a deep dive into the past, present and future of the Large Hadron Collider. From its conception in the 1990s via the breakthrough discoveries of the past 13 years, to the ground-breaking science yet to come, Clara will reveal how this incredible facility continues to expand our knowledge of the Universe, and what it's like to work on one of the world's greatest physics experiments.   Clara will also show how research at the LHC encompasses so much more, with 17,500 people from across the world coming together to solve the toughest problems in physics; from the mysteries of dark matter to why there is more matter than antimatter in the Universe. EARLY BOOKING DISCOUNT ENDS IN: Book now BONUS RESOURCES INCLUDED IN YOUR TICKET ADDITIONAL ON-DEMAND TALK: HOW FAST IS THE UNIVERSE GROWING?  JO DUNKLEY  |  Astrophysicist and Professor of Physics, Princeton University The universe as we know it began in a big bang almost 14 billion years ago. In this talk, astrophysicist Jo Dunkley explains how we discovered this, and how we have measured how fast the universe is growing.   Jo discusses a fascinating conundrum facing astronomers today: that two methods of measuring the age and expansion rate of the universe don't agree. Is something wrong in our understanding? Jo will describe her team's contribution to answering this question, using a telescope high in the Chilean desert.
