A screening of the documentary "The Peace Particle" and a subsequent panel discussion moderated by Prof. Arnab Bhattacharya followed.

The evening gave the audience a glimpse into how we explore the smallest scales to understand the biggest questions about our Universe.

Each sensor connects to its readout board through hundreds of hair-thin wire bonds. So how do you verify ~200 channels per board without touching a single fragile bond pad?
