Founded by Daniel Hajas, who did a stellar job, I have now been gifted with the responsibility of organising the talks for this academic year. We have some wonderful speakers on very interesting topics. These talks are an opportunity for some of our leading researchers at Sussex to discuss their interests and work. All of these talks are aimed at general public with an interest in Physics. A physi

cs background is great but not at all essential. I really hope you all enjoy these lectures and for an inquiries, feel free to contact me at [email protected].
