DESY's EXPO2000 exhibition hall | ||
DESY is hosting an exhibition called "Light for
the New Millenium", which runs from June 1 to Oktober 31. The hall on the
picture is where the exibition takes place. It is an external project of
the word exhibition EXPO2000.
The exhibit is meant to give the general public an impression of high energy physics, of physics with synchroton radiation, and of the work at DESY. There are explanations of elementary particle physics, geared towards a general public, backed up by actual hardware from experiments. Highlights are a working cloud chamber -- which always fascinates -- and a roughly 100m long stretch of the TESLA tunnel, where the visitor can see and learn about accelerators in general and TESLA in particular. Throughout the opening hours physics students
are always in the exhibition to
