WCUS at the Resonate Festival of Science and Technology – Day Out!
On Saturday the 9th of March the WCUS RTP attended the Resonate Festival of Science and Technology, where they presented the effects of lasers and light. Visitors got to see the effects of interference through the WCUS Michelson Interferometer (funding for which was provided by a technician demonstrator award in 2023). They also demonstrated their fluorescent kitchen, explaining how molecules and materials deal with the energy they absorb. Throughout the day over 500 visitors of all ages got to learn how they control light in their laboratory and use lasers to measure materials.
