Higgs, muon, dark matter and all the rest: What's new about the composition of the universe?

Physics deals with the largest structures and the universe as a whole, but also with the smallest building blocks, the elementary particles. The lecture will show progress in both areas and explain how the two are connected.

Description

In elementary particle physics, there are exciting new results on known particles such as the Higgs particle and the muon, and these results provide us with information about the composition of the whole universe and its evolution since the Big Bang. At the same time, there are new results on dark matter in the universe, which also improve our understanding of elementary particles. The current state of research is illustrated and it is explained which open questions we are still unable to answer today.

The presentation will be held in German.

Photography as a Science: Hermann Krone and the Collections of the Institute of Applied Physics

The Institute of Applied Physics at TU Dresden houses two extraordinary collections on the history of scientific photography: the Hermann Krone Collection and the Scientific Photography Collection. Closely connected to the life and work of the famous photographer Hermann Krone, they trace the rise of photography as the decisive visual medium of science. Join us on a journey through the worlds of scientific images!
