Wie funktioniert das Universum? Die Universität Graz stillt den Wissensdurst im Pub

WissenschafterInnen der Universität Graz erklären in einem Pub in 15 Minuten ihre Forschung und diskutieren dann mit den Gästen: Das ist das Erfolgsrezept von „Wissensdurst – die Wissenschaftsviertelstunde“. Nach einer Pause startet die Reihe der Universität Graz nun wieder durch. Den Auftakt macht Teilchenphysiker Christof Gattringer, der einen Blick in die innersten Strukturen macht, die das Universum zusammenhalten. 
Einsteins Relativitätstheorie und Quantenmechanik sind die essentiellen Zutaten für moderne Theorien von Elementarteilchen. Diese kleinsten Bausteine sind für das Funktionieren unserer Welt ganz entscheidend. Doch wie lassen sich diese Grundprinzipien am besten darstellen? Als Quantenfelder? Als Weltlinien? Christof Gattringer wird im Grazer Innenstadt-Pub „Hops Craft Beer“ mehr darüber verraten. 

WANN: Dienstag, 28. Mai 2019, 19 Uhr, 
WO: Hops Craft Beer Pub, Prokopigasse 14, 8010 Graz

Der Eintritt ist frei, um Anmeldung wird gebeten:
Tel. 0316 380-2203
E-Mail: andrea.penz(at)uni-graz.at

Die Veranstaltungsreihe „Wissensdurst“ ist Teil der 7. fakultät, des Zentrums für Wissen, Gesellschaft und Kommunikation der Universität Graz.

Staying fit during the holidays: summer sports on the University of Graz campus

The Kleeblattlauf is not the end of the fitness term. Following last year’s successful launch, the University of Graz is once again offering summer sports on campus this year. From 30 June to 16 July 2026, there will be a free exercise programme in the open air. On the shady Südwiese (between the main building and Universitätsplatz 2), anyone interested can get in shape in the afternoons with body workouts, fascia training and yoga.

Getting even hotter: Researchers predict global warming of 1.7 degrees by 2027

While Europe is currently sweltering in the heat, global temperatures are also rising towards concerning record levels. In 2026, Earth’s surface air temperature is expected to reach 1.62 degrees, and in 2027 even 1.71 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The long-term temperature rise – an average over a 20-year period – is predicted to exceed the 1.5-degree threshold of the Paris Agreement as of 2026 already. For the first time, researchers at the University of Graz have been able to make such a forecast so far in advance. The intensifying El Niño climate event favors forecast skill and thereby facilitates a reliable computation.
