"Dr. Keith Olive is a
distinguished McKnight University Professor at the University of
Minnesota. His research areas are high energy physics and properties of
matter. Joining us from Princeton University is Professor James Peebles,
theoretical cosmologist. Professor Peebles has made many important
contributions to the big bang model. With Robert Dicke he predicted the
cosmic microwave background radiation. Dr. Peebles lectured at the
University this week at the Fine Theoretical Physics Institute.
"We'll be discussing the evolution of the universe, current theories
about dark matter, and Keith's specialty — supersymmetry. Will the
Large Hadron Collider really find the Higgs Boson — and why do we care?
And closer to home — the MINOS neutrino experiment in northern Minnesota
— what's that about. All this and more and just in one hour."
