Scientists Meet Scientists – Wednesday Coffee Talk by Prof. Elisa Resconi (Experimental Physics with Cosmic Particles) on a 100 years old puzzle

Events, WCT |


Prof. Ernst Rank and the TUM-IAS team invite the scientists of TUM and their guests for coffee each Wednesday! Just come over to the TUM-IAS after lunch between 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. and have a coffee with us, meet other scientists and listen from time to time to a short talk (10-15 mins) on a recent major TUM publication or issue – aimed specifically at a non-expert audience.

On October 26, 2016, Prof. Elisa Resconi (Experimental Physics with Cosmic Particles) will talk about the origin of the highest energetic cosmic particles ever observed, a 100 years old puzzle.
