SNOLAB in the spotlight
“SNOLAB is essential. Underground physics is
becoming incredibly important, and SNOLAB has
become a great international facility that draws the
best researchers not only from Canada but also from
around the world. When you attract people from
around the world, you improve the quality of domestic
research, and domestic researchers can become part
of the forefront of vital international experiments.”
— Internationally renowned theoretical physicist and Carleton
alumnus Lawrence Krauss, the director of the Origins Project at
Arizona State University, who recently endowed a new annual
scholarship for an outstanding undergraduate physics student at
Carleton and will be returning to campus as a keynote speaker
at the Canadian Undergraduate Physics Conference in October.
Krauss will also be speaking at Carleton’s annual Fall Leadership
Luncheon at the Canadian Museum of Nature on Oct. 23.
