This is just one of a bunch of pics I took at yesterday's Fermilab Photowalk at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. Just a handfull of pics to show off with more to come. The public spaces at Fermilab are neat and well worth a visit, but if you ever get the chance to go behind the scenes, at a place like this, TAKE IT! Fermilab, Batavia, IL

"Hidden Pieces: The Large Hadron Collider and our dark universe" lecture at QUT on 19/11/2019 given by Dr Steven Goldfarb - a particle physicist working on the ATLAS Experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider.
This lecture was made possible by Dr Andrew Fielding of QUT's Science and Engineering Faculty, with funding support from the Australian Institute of Physics - AIP, and the Australasian College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine - ACPSEM.
Perimeter Institute works with high school teachers to create lessons for modern physics. Apparently they run workshops for teachers, then the Ontario Association of Physics Teachers has events around Ontario that presents the material to more teachers. I've been to a couple so far, some of it is good, some of it is less fun.
I don't know what this is. It says something about "Debuncher" on the top but that's just a reference to what this entire ring used to be in the Tevatron days, I think (agni.phys.iit.edu/~vpa/fnaldebuncher.html), when this was part of the antiproton production system. Making antiprotons in large numbers was really hard -- I once heard them referred to as "the most expensive stuff on earth, by weight". That's one reason the LHC decided to use proton-proton collisions.
These are the where the signals are taken from a bank of photomultiplier tubes at Rutherford Appleton Labs in Oxfordshire.
The beam was switched OFF!

Magnet and TPC of the HARP Experiment. We used it for measurements for the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment.
Collisions and vertex detector are to the right, and I think the steel box might hold their first particle ID detector. Particles continue to the left, go through the big magnet, and then there is another tracking detector after the magnet.
I took Darren's parents down into the pit for a tour and it happened to be the day they were installing Castor. (CASTOR seems to be lacking a nice "explain to the public what we're about" web page. This is the best I can find: twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/CASTOR)
