From his groundbreaking early work on the cyclotron to his transformative research across nuclear, particle, and cosmic-ray physics, Alvarez’s legacy is deeply woven into the fabric of our Lab’s history. Nevala-Lee’s biography offers fresh insights into Alvarez’s time at the Lab, his collaborations, and the scientific culture that still inspires us.
This event is a unique opportunity for all staff in the to reflect on our shared heritage, engage with the history of our Lab, and draw inspiration for the future. There is limited seating in the Building 50 Auditorium, and the author will sign copies of his books after the talk. The session will also be available at streaming.lbl.gov.
