The University of Nottingham

University physicists Prof Ed Copeland (pictured next to the ATLAS detector) and Dr Tony Padilla joined videojournalist Brady Haran in Geneva to visit the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. They filmed videos for the University’s award-winning Sixty Symbols project, a website and YouTube channel which examines the different symbols, processes and equations used in the fields of physics, astronomy and engineering. Though they’re made by experts, the videos explain complex theories and concepts in an accessible way. This has earned Sixty Symbols — and its sister channels the Periodic Table of Videos, Numberphile and Deep Sky Videos — millions of fans across the world.
