Enter the ballot for your chance to receive tickets to a special lecture at Imperial College London with Professor Brian Cox.
On behalf of Imperial Theoretical Physics, please join the ballot for a chance to attend an unforgettable lecture honouring Nobel Laureate Professor Abdus Salam. We are very excited to welcome Professor Brian Cox CBE as our keynote speaker, along with Professor Atish Dabholkar, Director of the International Centre of Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy.
Abdus Salam was one of the giants of 20th century theoretical physics and Imperial his academic home for 40 years. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1979 for his work on unifying the electromagnetic and the weak nuclear forces. This unification is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, our best understanding of all of matter.
There are limited public tickets available. Due to anticipated demand, we are operating a ballot system.

We are also livestreaming the event. If you would like to sign up to attend online, please register here.
Abdus Salam and the Fundamental Forces of Nature
Abdus Salam was one of the giants of 20th century theoretical physics and Imperial his academic home for 40 years. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1979 for his work on unifying the electromagnetic and the weak nuclear forces. This unification is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, our best understanding of all of matter.
Professor Salam also passionately believed that science was a uniting force in the world, founding the International Centre of Theoretical Physics (ICTP) devoted to advancing international collaboration and scientific expertise in the developing world.
Professor Dabholkar will speak on Salam and his efforts to promote science in the developing world and Professor Cox will provide the keynote talk on the theme of unification in the Standard Model of Particle Physics, and the ongoing quest for a unification of all forces of nature including gravity.
