"Physics in Kungsträdgården" is a local biannual outreach project which this year it took place on 7 September. On that Saturday the central Stockholm park Kungsträdgården was filled with students and scientists from Nordita, the KTH and Stockholm University departments of physics, astronomy, metereology, radiation physics, and joined by science educators from the House of Science. The public is invited to explore and experience the many facets of physics, ask questions, listen to talks, and try hands-on demonstrations. Nordita has inspired discussions on the formation of sunspots and super-cooled water, the geometry of soap bubbles and self-healing graphene, and the hidden secrets of quantum gravity, chaotic double pendulums and the inner structure of neutron stars.
Apostolos Vasileiadis, master student at Nordita, documented the event:
