How it all began – The series of lectures on the subject of the Big Bang
What is our universe made of?
Does it have a beginning and an end? How were the elementary particles created and how do we find new ones? What is dark matter and what happened before the Big Bang? Answers to these questions are provided by the latest findings in particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology.
Together with scientists from the Cluster of Excellence Quantum Universe of Universität Hamburg and the research center DESY, the lecture series starts a journey to the origin of our universe:
How do axions help us understand the Big Bang? How did the two pioneers of physics, Lise Meitner and Vera Rubin, arrive at their insights into nuclear fission and dark matter? What does string theory describe? And what do the latest images from the James Webb Space Telescope show us about the formation of the first galaxies?
Ask the Scientist!
What are quarks and Higgs particles? What excites us about space telescopes, gravitational waves, particle collisions and supersymmetries?
Just ask directly: After the lectures there is the possibility to exchange ideas with the scientists over a drink
