Lindley Winslow, an assistant professor of physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will give a talk titled “Hunting Ghostly Particles.” Her talk will be on elusive elementary particles called neutrinos that may help explain the preponderance of matter over anti-matter in the universe. Winslow also will talk about her work as science consultant for the recent movie Ghostbusters.
The lecture will be today (Feb. 28) at 7 p.m. in the Cleveland Museum of Natural History (1 Wade Oval). Admission is free for members and $8 for non-members (includes price of admission to the museum). Reserving tickets in advance is recommended.
The event is co-sponsored by the Museum of Natural History and the Department of Physics at Case Western Reserve University.
