Astronomy on Tap Triangle #21: Tuesday, May 5, 2020

Come check out Astronomy on Tap Triangle, our North Carolina chapter of short and engaging talks about astronomy over beer, held virtually on YouTube — this is our twenty-first event held from 7-9 PM on Tuesday, May 5th!

Join us online on May 5, 2020, 7pm EDT for our first ONLINE Astronomy on Tap Triangle! Dr. Amy Nicholson (UNC-CH) will come online to give a talk titled “From quarks to stars: understanding the strong nuclear force”. We will convene on YouTube live stream and you will have the opportunity to ask Dr. Nicholson questions through the virtual chat window. We are excited to see you “there”! (Bring your own beer!)

Dr. Amy Nicholson is an Assistant Professor of Physics at UNC Chapel Hill where she researches the origins of nuclear particles and searches for new physics they may exhibit. She received her Ph.D. and M.S. in Physics from the University of Washington, and her B.S. in Physics from New York University.

Our FREE Astronomy on Tap events feature accessible, engaging science presentations on topics ranging from planets to black holes to the beginning of the Universe. There is always lots of time to ask questions and interact with the presenters and other scientists who inevitably stick around for the beer.
