Deutsche Ausgabe: In dieser Folge machen wir uns auf die Suche nach dunkler Materie - mit dem ALPS II Experiment am Deutschen Elektron Synchroton in Hamburg. Mit meinen Gästen Axel Lindner und Sven Karstensen tauchen wir in die Welt der Axionen, mysteriöse Teilchen, und wie man sie aufspüren kann. Daneben gibt es, wie immer in der Teilchenphysik, spannende Fragen zu Software und Datenaufarbeitung. Viel Spaß beim Zuhören. Links: https://alps.desy.de/ Die Home Page des ALPS Projektsh...
