HAPP 1-Day Conference: Heritage Physics: Illuminating the Past - in person and livestreamed online

Heritage physics involves the application of scientific techniques and technologies to answer questions about our cultural heritage and to enable our understanding and conservation of this. As scientific techniques have evolved across the past century from the earliest methods for age determination to modern day composition analysis, these have increased our ability to deepen our knowledge about ancient and historical artefacts as well as to preserve and restore them. This conference will survey the history of how the illumination of the past has developed as new fields of physics have progressed.

There will be a conference dinner at St Cross College at 18:30, for which booking is required. For programme, and to book for the dinner, please see website: www.stx.ox.ac.uk/event/happ-one-day-conference-heritage-physics-illuminating-the-past

Registration is required for both in-person and livestream.
