About the event
This night is all about looking into those places that like to remain hidden, whilst finding new ways of looking at things! Dr David Newman will tell you about using x-rays for more than just medicine, Prof. Andrew Hillier will show you how we look at our sun and how that’s changing our understanding of solar physics. Finally, to wrap up this night, we will have a special session of three ‘micro’ talks. At just 7 minutes long, presenters will explain one idea from microscopy, quantum optics, and mechanics - with a chance for you, the audience, to quiz them in a panel Q&A session at the end.

If you have ever broken a bone or even just watched a lot of medical dramas, you will probably have seen x-rays…
