Quantum physics and Astrophysics have been captivating the minds of Physicists and the general public for decades. In this event, two of our academics from the School of Mathematics and Physics here at the University of Lincoln will start the discussion with their ‘top tricky questions’ in the fields of astrophysics and quantum physics.

Astronomy (Dr Phil Sutton):

• How many Moons does the Earth have?
• Why are there no green stars?

Quantum Physics (Dr Matt Booth):

• What is wave / particle duality?
• What is a wave function?
• What is superposition?

The online event for schools was organized Elizabeth Holland who is now a 2nd year physics student in the School of Mathematics and Physics. It was in part sponsored by the Ogden Trust grant PEGSU21\159 “Physics outreach undergraduate bursary”.
