Spooky Physics Night 2024

Invitation: The annual Halloween-themed open house at the Department of Physics and Astronomy.

Fri
1
Nov

Bring your kids and friends to learn about energy, electricity, magnetism, sound and waves, the physics of ultracold temperatures and more. But beware! Expect a hair-raising experience -- literally: we'll shoot enough electricity through your body to make your hair stand up -- and other ‘nefarious’ experiments involving a bed of nails, lasers, superconductors and electromagnets. All harmless activities, of course! The night will also include food and fun, a Halloween costume contest for children, and liquid nitrogen ice cream for everybody, ‘freshly’ made at -320 F degrees.

Spooky Physics Night visitors may park in the University Circle, surrounding areas alongside, or near the Vaught Hemingway Stadium (access from Gertrude Ford Blvd), in the Pavilion garage or in the lots near the Turner Center.
