The speaker for the November 2018 meeting of Basingstoke Cafe Scientifique at The Tea Bar will be Dr Chris Steer who will be discussing the topic of "Cosmic rays : Imaging with particles from space".

SUMMARY
TBC

BIOGRAPHY:
As well as being a scientist, Chris has researched applications of imaging using cosmic rays for around 9 years now, and is actively involved in a UK collaboration applying the technique to imaging of engineered tunnels.

VENUE:
The Tea Bar doors will be open from around 6.45pm before the talk which starts at 7:30pm, so you can get yourself a drink and have a chat with other participants. We will aim to finish around 9:00pm as usual, though everyone will be welcome to stay around and have a chat with the speaker until around 10:00pm.

The format of the evening is usually a talk of 30 to 40 minutes, followed by a short break so the audience can refill their glasses and buy cakes before questions and discussions about the talk. Entry is free and open to everyone, but we do encourage you to buy a tea, coffee or drink (and cakes) at the bar to show your support for The Tea Bar who sponsor the meeting by providing the venue.

Cafe Scientifique is a place where, for the price of a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, anyone can come to explore and debate the latest ideas in science and technology.

Basingstoke Cafe Scientifique is a free Science and Technology Interest Group organised and sponsored by the Basingstoke Friends Social Group and the British Science Association.
