PUBLIC LECTURE: Australia's Search for Dark Matter

The National Quantum & Dark Matter Road Trip as part of National Science Week presents:

Dr Jeremy Bourhill - "Australia's Search for Dark Matter: Using quantum technology to try and see the unseeable."

Dark matter is the biggest missing puzzle piece in our understanding of the universe. Understanding it would help answer some of the biggest and scariest questions we like to ask such as "why does the universe even exist?". In this public lecture Dr Jeremy Bourhill will discuss the overwhelming evidence for the existence of dark matter.

The lecture will be understandable by the general public from school age up and will feature physical demonstrations and a 30-minute Q&A.

Date: 17 August; Time: 5.45pm arrival, 6.00-7.30pm public lecture; Venue: Murdoch Lecture Theatre, UWA.
