A particle physics eveningJon Butterworth, head of UCL Physics and Astronomy. He is a particle physicist who has participated in the discovery of the Higgs Boson at CERN, and author of the recent popular science book ‘Smashing Physics’
David Miller, particle physicist affiliated with Chicago University and CERN, where he works on the ATLAS experiment.
Lily Asquith, postdoctoral researcher in particle physics at Argonne National Laboratory, where she works on analysing data from the ATLAS experiment at CERN.

 Hosted by Professor Jon Butterworth (author of Smashing Physics), UCL is offering an evening of particle physics, suitable for all ages from 12 up.

Introducing the Large Hadron Collider, a virtual visit to CERN hosted by David Miller of Chicago University, a talk by TEDx speaker Lily Asquith (of Sussex University and the Argonne National Lab) about sonificiation of LHC data, and a Q&A session in which you can ask all your burning particle physics questions.
