Probing the Heart of Matter - Dr. Suzie Sheehy (Universities of Oxford & Melbourne)
Physics has always sought to deepen our understanding of reality, particularly our concept of matter. Today, city-size machines crash together particles — at nearly the speed of light — that are a trillion times smaller than a grain of sand. The resulting insights have both theoretical and practical value: a more profound (and weird) concept of existence, and new technologies such as diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy. Wonderfest joins BookShop West Portal — online — to present physicist Dr. Suzie Sheehy in discussion of her new book "The Matter of Everything: How Curiosity, Physics, and Improbable Experiments Changed the World."
Dr. Sheehy is a physicist, science communicator, and academic who divides her time between research groups at England's University of Oxford and Australia's University of Melbourne. She appears at 0:02:15 in the video.
This Wonderfest presentation, in collaboration with San Francisco's BookShop West Portal (BSWP), took place on January 22, 2023 via Zoom. The first speaker is BSWP's Susan Tunis; then Wonderfest's Tucker Hiatt introduces Dr. Sheehy. The video was edited by noble Wonderfest volunteer Neeti Sonth.
