Deborah Maw joins us on 15th May at Didsbury SciBar discussing Metaphysics using both quantum physics and the memory of water.
Dr Elizabeth Evans from NXCT presents at Didsbury Scibar in April. We will take tour into the sublime, the spooky and the stunning of the natural world and beyond through the medium of 3D X-ray scans.
High levels of radiation make nuclear reactors a uniquely challenging environment for the materials that they’re built from. But Why? The short answer is; radiation tends to make metals weak and brittle. But again, why? In this free science event, Dr Alex Carruthers will answer this question by considering…
Solar flares are dramatic explosions in the outer atmosphere of the Sun – the solar corona. They produce electromagnetic radiation and beams of high-energy charged particles, which can have serious detrimental effects on space instrumentation and on power systems and communication on Earth. Since the first solar flare was…
Cathy Eagle, a PhD student from University of Liverpool, Stephenson Insitiute for Renewable Energy joins us in person and online at SciBar this month to discuss whether CO2 can be useful. Cathy’s talk will cover; Carbon dioxide and the environment Reducing carbon dioxide emissions What is carbon dioxide utilisation?…
The terahertz (THz) region of the electromagnetic spectrum, which lies between microwave and infrared, offers a number of exciting opportunities for scientists and engineers. Already we are seeing new airport security scanners, medical diagnostics, tools for process monitoring in manufacturing, and high-speed communications. In this talk, Dr Graham will…
