Statutory Public Lecture of the School of Theoretical Physics
The Large Hadron Collider – Shedding Light on the Dark Universe
by Professor Rolf-Dieter Heuer, incoming director-general of CERN
Hosted by University College Dublin,
Venue: RDS Concert Hall
As the world prepares for the start up of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN this year, experts anticipate revolutionary results explaining the origin of matter, unravelling the nature of dark matter and providing glimpses of extra-spatial dimensions or grand unification of forces and hints on dark energy. Professor Heuer is instrumental in shaping the European and international program in energy frontier physics. In this lecture, he will take a look into the future of particle physics.Professor Heuer is currently the director of high energy physics and astroparticle physics at Deutsche Electronen Synchrotron (DESY) in Hamburg, Germany.

He is best known for work on particle acceleration in astrophysical plasmas and the origin of cosmic rays, but has broad interests in computational and theoretical astrophysics and more recently in issues of policy for science. Congratulations Luke 👏 (2/2)
