We’re proud to have joined the 2025 Open Lab Day—“Touching the Invisible Dimensions of the Universe”—hosted by our institute in Zhangjiang. Our team (Jiangtao, Jun Kai, Xingyun, Yinghe, Yonghao) brought the mysteries of particle physics to life with two interactive exhibits: a Cloud Chamber and a Spark Chamber, captivating over 200 visitors!
The cloud chamber unveiled ethereal trails of cosmic rays and alpha particles, transforming invisible subatomic activity into a visual spectacle. Nearby, the spark chamber dazzled with crackling light bursts triggered by passing particles, sparking awe and curiosity across all ages. These installations bridged the event’s theme of “极大” (cosmic vastness) and “极小” (subatomic realms), echoing cutting-edge research like dark matter detection and neutrino studies showcased in lab tours.
From kids tracing particle paths to adults pondering cosmic riddles, the joy of discovery was universal. Special thanks to our team for translating complex science into wonder!
