Dr William Campbell: Search for Dark Matter - Free public talk
Free public talk: Yes, We're Still Looking!
Find Out How Exactly We Plan to Search for Dark Matter Using Quantum Physics!
From dark matter to gravitational waves, some of the most fascinating mysteries in physics lie far beyond the reach of conventional tools. But recent advances in quantum technology, like quantum sensing, are opening new windows into these hidden realms.
Dr William Campbell will explore how we use quantum technologies to detect subtle, elusive signals from the universe, and why we're looking in the first place. He will guide you through the working principles of advanced devices that harness quantum effects to make ultra-sensitive measurements, enabling researchers around the world to search for gravitational waves, dark matter, and other signatures of new physics. Along the way, learn what makes a technology 'quantum,' why it matters, and how researchers right here in Western Australia, are playing a leading role in this global effort.
All welcome! Whether you're a curious high school student or an experienced professional, come along and discover the fascinating world-class research happening right here in your own backyard. Register now for your free ticket.
