Behind the Scenes of the Universe - Gianfranco Bertone
KORTE INHOUD
In this book, aimed at the general reader with an interest in science, the author illustrates in non-technical terms, borrowing concepts and ideas from other branches of art and literature, how physicists hope to identify the nature of the mysterious form of matter that goes under the name of dark matter, and that seems to permeate the whole of our Universe. The author argues that Cosmology and Particle Physics are about to undergo a pivotal paradigm shift, asscientists will soon test the existence of dark matter particles with the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, where the Higgs boson has recently been discovered, and with a new generation of extraordinaryexperiments worldwide.
