Public Lecture by Nobel Laureate: Looking for Fossils of the Big Bang
By Faizan
In this next edition of LIVE@Frost Science on Wednesday, October 26, physicist and Nobel Laureate Dr. Eric A. Cornell will present Looking for Fossils of the Big Bang in the Laboratory. Dr. Cornell shared in the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physics for synthesizing the first Bose-Einstein condensate. In his presentation, Dr. Cornell will concentrate on the work being done in the laboratory and how we can use precise measurements to look for fossils of the Big Bang.
