Dark Matter Day is an international event dedicated to outreach activities focused on the research and exploration of dark matter and its many enigmas. And of course it’s celebrated on Halloween 🎃, because it’s some spooky stuff 😉!
The Dark Matter and Neutrinos group, together with colleagues from the IGC and physics department, hosted an information booth at the HUB (the main student center in the university), to talk to people about Dark Matter, Cosmology, and Physics in general! We had a lot of students stopping to ask about it, and some lively discussions! In the spirit of Halloween, we also gave out some dark chocolate!
Below are some pictures. The booth was hosted by: Luiz de Viveiros, Carmen Carmona, Donghui Jeong (Faculty); Sarah Schon (Postdoc); Wei Zha, Katie Wild, Joshua Black (Grad Students); Amber Krape, Gus Eberlein (Undergraduate Students).
