It has collected more than billion cosmic rays and observed several unexpected results. In this talk, I will report how we selected and qualified EEE parts for AMS in terms of reliability and performance requirements. I will also report our recent detector development for radiation tests and its application in the proton therapy.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>\u3010Tuesday, April 23\u3011<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Speaker: Prof. David Wark, FRS\uff08University of Oxford, Director of Science and Technology Facilities Council, UK\uff09<\/p>\n<p>Host: Dr. Henry Tsz King Wong (Deputy Director of Institute of Physics)<\/p>\n<p>Time: 15:00, Tuesday, Apr.23, 2019<\/p>\n<p>Title\uff1aNeutrino Oscillations &#8211; Past, Present, and Future<\/p>\n<p>Abstract: The talk will give a brief outline of the discovery of neutrino oscillations and then discuss the current state of our knowledge before discussing the exciting opportunities for future experiments (specifically the Hyper Kamiokande detector) which will tell us even more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Place: 1F Auditorium, Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Institute of Physics held two colloquiums on April 16 and 23.
