Are you interested in levitation? Maybe quantum effects? Or perhaps you only wish to see how cryogenics work? Join us and explore the new frontiers in science!
-
A particularly wavy matter
Delve into the physics of everyday waves, discover the strange wave-particle duality of quantum objects, and discuss how radiofrequency cavities rely on waves to accelerate particles at the heart of the LHC
-
Adventures at low temperatures #2: It is just a phase
Explore the transitions between different phases of matter, and how they can help us draw heat away from the LHC.
-
Adventures at low temperatures #1: Keeping it cool
Investigate why the LHC has to be kept at a temperature colder than outer space, and how it manages to stay at such a cold temperature.
-
Electromagnetic adventures #2: Currents 🔁 Magnets
Learn how electric currents can create magnetic fields as well as the opposite phenomenon – how changing magnetic fields can create electric currents.
-
How to create photons you can see
Learn how light is created, how incandescence (“warm light”) differs from luminescence (“cold light”) and how we use the latter in scintillation detectors.
-
Electromagnetic adventures #1: How to steer a proton
Explore electromagnetic fields, how to control a beam of electrically charged particles and how to design a particle accelerator like the LHC.
