Next Steps in Neutrino Physics

The Physics and Astronomy Department at Wheaton College presents a seminar. Fermilab physicist Geralyn Zeller will deliver a lecture titled "Next Steps in Neutrino Physics."

Geralyn (Sam) Zeller has a PhD. from Northwestern University and has worked in Fermilab since 2009. She received a 2012 DOE Early Career Research Award to advance a detector technology that will capture neutrinos' attributes with unprecedented detail.

The subatomic particles called neutrinos are among the most elusive in the particle kingdom and are very difficult to detect. Zeller will examine the challenging questions about neutrinos and discuss future plans and experiments being developed to answer these questions.
