Event: Dark Matter Day 2024 (with Virtual Tour of the Lab!)

Dark Matter Day is celebrated on the day of Halloween 🎃, because, you know, dark matter is mysterious and spooky 😉! So to mark this day, the Dark Matter and Neutrinos Group at Penn State will be hosting a Dark Matter Day event at the Osmond Lobby on October 31st, 2024! We will have an information booth at the lobby from 10am to 2pm, to explore the science of dark matter and the experiments looking for it! Speakers include Profs. Carmen Carmona, Luiz de Viveiros, and postdocs and students working on Dark Matter experiments! We will also host a live, virtual tour of the LUX-ZEPLIN Dark Matter Experiment, located 1 mile underground in an abandoned gold mine! The virtual tour is at 12pm.
