Science Café Cleveland presents
Why we aren't discovering dark matter, black holes, supersymmetry - or anything else exciting - at the world's largest accelerator
OCTOBER 12, 2015
FEATURING:
Glenn Starkman, Ph.D.
Professor, Physics and Astronomy
Director, Institute for the Science of Origins, Center for Education and Research in Cosmology and Astrophysics, CWRU
EVENT INFORMATION:
The Standard Model of Particle Physics explains what atoms are made of, and what holds them together. Every prediction we have made with it has turned out to be correct. Yet for 40 years particle physicists have claimed that the Standard Model is a sick theory and must be cured by adding many additional particles and interactions. I'll tell you why they thought so, why I think they're wrong, and what it means for the Large Hadron Collider and for particle physics in general.
