The event, organized by ICTP, in collaboration with SISSA and Imaginario Scientifico, will be held in English and is aimed at people of all ages.

The famous Higgs boson will be the protagonist of the special performance by a group of physics students from the University of Bonn. The show's two main characters will accompany viewers on an adventure that will lead them into the fascinating world of particle physics, the fundamental building blocks of nature. Along the way, meet luminaries like Rutherford, the discoverer of the nucleus, Lawrence, the inventor of the modern accelerator, and physicists working at CERN in the LHC tunnel.

WHEN: Friday 27 March, 11:00 (duration: 95 minutes)
WHERE: Old SISSA Building auditorium, via Beirut 4

Entrance is free, and all are invited!

The Bonn Physics Show is the brainchild of Herbert Dreiner, theoretical physicist, and Michael Kortmann. It aims to present physics in an easily understandable and entertaining way to an audience of all ages. For almost fifteen years the shows have been carried out with great success in Germany and other European locations, renewing every year with the turnover of students and with the contribution of new ideas.
