Communication to schools and to the public
Explanation of mass generation by the Higgs field using a model developed by us
Our group is intensively involved in science communication to schools and to the public, enabling public engagement in research, e.g. via analysis of original data in formats such as Masterclasses, which are regularly conducted by our young researchers in schools. In addition, mobile exhibitions, materials for the classroom, or the animation below, showing how the universe would have evolved, if the elementary particles had slightly different masses.
Our presentations and publications in science communication are summarized in the filtered overview from the FIS-database at the bottom of this page.
In a large exhibition on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), these four animations illustrated the evolution of our own universe and three alternatives. © Tricklabor, Michael Kobel, Ulrike Behrens u.a.
