Saturday Morning Physics

Photographing the Ghostly Neutrino / Joshua Spitz, Norman M. Leff Assistant Professor of Physics (U-M)

You can't see them but they're everywhere. About 65 billion just passed through your fingernail in the past second. Indeed, the neutrino is the most ghostly of our fundamental particles. We've known about the existence of neutrinos for over 80 years, and yet their mysterious nature continues to confound us. This talk will discuss the importance of the neutrino in particle physics and cosmology and present how one can actually photograph a neutrino. No Ouija board required.

All talks are free and refreshments will be served. Visitor parking (Central Campus) is across the street from Weiser Hall (formerly Dennison Building) in U-M Church Street parking structure. There is a $2.00 cash parking charge.
