Description

Abstract: Elementary particles, just like Pokemons, have different properties and are categorized in different families depending on how they behave. For some time now, it has been the goal of many physicists to catch them all and complete our Pokedex, which we now call the Standard Model. In addition to re-introducing the most well known ones, this seminar will provide an overview of the newest generations of particles, what they can do and how scientists were able to detect them. So come join me to learn more about particles, Pokemons, and even maybe hear about some legendary particles physicists are still trying to catch.
