Neil Turok: Quantum Universe - 2021 ICMS Christmas Public Lecture Dec 14 2021 Quantum Universe Ever since Galileo, observations of the physical world have confirmed the remarkable power of mathematical reasoning. In recent times, the range of our understanding has expanded to the largest cosmological scales and to tiny, subatomic scales. In both regimes, we find a surprising simplicity and economy in nature's laws. The observations provide clues to the solution of major puzzles: how are quantum theory and gravity reconciled? what happened at the big bang? what fixed time's arrow? what are the dark matter and dark energy? is there a complete mathematical theory of the universe? Timings (all GMT): 17.30 - Doors Open 18.00 - Introduction/Welcome 18.05 - 2021 ICMS Christmas Public Lecture 18.45 - Q&A 19.00 - Reception (in Bayes Centre) 19.45 - End of Event 'In-person' tickets are limited and available on a first come, first served basis 'On-line' participants will join via a Zoom Webinar For In-person attendees - COVID-19 arrangements - attendees are requested to wear a mask (unless exempt), whilst moving around the building.
