Nobel Laureate Adam Riess recently visited the UC Davis campus to tell the story of the surprising expansion history of the universe. It’s a story Riess played a pivotal role in revealing. In 2011, he was one of three scientists awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics “for the discovery of the accelerating expansion of the universe through observations of distant supernovae.”
On Tuesday, Nov. 4, Nobel Prize-winning astrophysicist Adam Riess will give a free public lecture titled “The Surprising Expansion History of the Universe.” The lecture will start at 7 p.m. with a reception before the lecture at 6 p.m. The event is being hosted by the College of Letters and Science and the Department of Physics and Astronomy.
