About

The 2026 Nobel Prize in Physics is awarded to Prof. Francis Halzen for his role in
constructing IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a gargantuan telescope made from the natural ice block at the South Pole. This telescope specialises in detecting elusive but omnipresent particles called neutrinos. IceCube has discovered high-energy neutrinos from astrophysical sources outside our solar system, opening up a new window for observing the Universe.

Join Amol Dighe for talk in which he will describe what IceCube Neutrino Observatory is, why and how it was built, what discoveries it has already made, and what its future potential is.

This lecture is organised in collaboration with Infosys Science Foundation.
