What?

Modern physics can describe almost any experiment on Earth with an exceptional precision. At the same time, the most complete physical model of our universe has major gaps, and we cannot even explain the existence of the matter of which we ourselves are made. How is it that we can understand everything down to the finest detail, and at the same time be completely off the mark on a global scale…?

Recently, a movement has emerged in scientific research to test our understanding of physics through small-scale experiments with great sensitivity. If you want to learn more about it, come to the borrellecture hosting Steven Hoekstra, brought to you by Physica!

The talk will be taking place on November 19th at 17:00 in FBG 5612.0126. The usual snacks, drinks, and good company will be provided.
