Description

Partez à la découverte de l'infiniment petit, en compagnie de physiciens et de physiciennes qui vont vous faire découvrir les secrets de la matière quand on l'étudie aux distances les plus courtes, aux énergies les plus élevées. Vous vous initierez aux progrès les plus récents de la recherche en physique nucléaire et de la physique des particules, et vous découvrirez les principes des accélérateurs et des détecteurs avec lesquels on a pu étudier la matière à ces échelles, pour arriver jusqu'à la découverte du boson de Higgs en 2012 auprès du collisionneur de particules du CERN, le LHC.
