A DC Science Café Event! Light Matters: Photons and Atoms At Play
January 19, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Free
What could be more fundamental and wondrous than matter and light? Join University of Maryland chemistry professor John Fourkas for an uncommonly illuminating and substantial tour on the forefronts of light, matter and their interactions. Along the way, you will catch glimpses of 3D-printed words smaller than biological cells, cathedrals perfectly sized for bacterial congregations, and ultrafast lasers that can snap telling portraits of molecules in action.
