Searching for New Physics with the Belle II Experiment

Jake Bennett, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Mississippi.

The field of experimental elementary particle physics seeks answers to some of the most fundamental questions of the universe. What are the building blocks of matter and how do they interact? Is there anything more than what we see, and if so, how can we study it? Physicists and engineers from all over the world collaborate to build massive particle accelerators and detectors with which to study subatomic particles and their interactions. Join us at the next Oxford Science Cafe, where Dr. Bennett will give an introduction to subatomic particles and discuss recent studies from cutting-edge particle physics experiments.

Tuesday, February 17, 2026, 6:00pm - 7:00pm
