Tour of TRIUMF
Today I had a fascinating tour of the TRIUMF facility here at UBC. TRIUMF is Canada's national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics and accelerator-based science. TRIUMF is considered Canada's premier physics laboratory and is consistently regarded as one of the leading subatomic physics research centers on the international level.
I am the first to admit my lack of knowledge of sub-atomic physics but I did my best to do some homework on the subject in order to ask some questions.
My impressions? The theorists and the experimental physicists are exploring areas that will change the world. I wish I could be a part of that change.
