BATAVIA, Ill. – Are you curious about extra dimensions? Do you have questions about dark energy? Have you ever wondered about black holes? On March 31, 2004, the Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory will host the next Virtual Ask-a-Scientist from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Central Time. Physicists Adam Yurkewicz and Jean-Roch Vlimant both of Fermilab’s DZero experiment will respond to questions live online.
Virtual Ask-a-Scientist is an online chat session with Fermilab scientists that gives participants the opportunity to ask questions about high-energy physics from: “What is string theory?” to “Why does Fermilab have buffalo?” Fermilab invites people of all ages and all science backgrounds to participate.
