BISHOP WILLIAMS HALL (J 200)
Around the world, in the deepest mines and the deepest oceans, from the Antarctic to low-Earth orbit, experiments are now searching for the elusive dark matter particle. I will attempt to explain how and why.
This lecture is presented at a general level and will be of interest to all students (including those in CEGEP).
