Clara Nellist, Particle Physicist and Science Communicator |
|
|
The first online talk in this new series will be with particle physicist Clara Nellist, who is part of the ATLAS Experiment team at the LHC. Join Clara for a deep dive into the past, present and future of this incredible facility, 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 also share how the LHC continues to expand our knowledge of the Universe, and what it's like to work on one of the world's greatest physics experiments. |

| TUESDAY 4 APRIL | 6-7pm BST | 1-2pm EDT | ON-DEMAND | Don Lincoln, Senior Scientist, Fermilab |
|
|
Don Lincoln, senior scientist of Fermilab, America's flagship particle physics facility will explore how decades of Fermilab research have taught us so much about our universe and how it works. He will share the future research plans for the facility, probing the mysteries of neutrinos, antimatter and a persistent puzzle involving muons and explain how the results from Fermilab, and other experiments, are helping theorists in their quest for the elusive 'Theory of Everything'. |

John C Mather, Senior Astrophysicist, NASA |
|
|
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which launched in 2021 and began science operations in 2022, is now peering into the past to find the first objects that formed after the big bang, and to study the first black holes, the growth of galaxies, the formation of stars and planetary systems, and more. About 100 times more powerful than the celebrated Hubble Space Telescope, the JWST could observe a 1 cm² bumblebee at the Earth-moon distance, in reflected sunlight and thermal emission, and it promises to reveal many wonders of our universe.
In this talk, senior project scientist for JWST and Nobel prizewinning astrophysicist John C Mather will share how NASA and its partners built the JWST and some of it's first discoveries. |
