Frontiers of Science: Breaking the Light Barrier Dr. Stefan W. Hell, director, Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry, Gottingen, Germany Light is simultaneously a particle and a wave. The wave property limits the dimensions of what we can see to about 200 nanometers. Dr. Hell is developing innovative ways to "break the light barrier" to see objects below the diffraction limit. Date: Tuesday, November 30, 2010 Time: 7:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. Contact: Jim Degooyer 801-581-6958 Location: Aline W. Skaggs Biology Building - (view map) Cost: Free and open to the public, but tickets are required - go to www.science.utah.edu for ticket reservations.
