What is the future of the world’s biggest physics experiment? And what intriguing hints of new physics are around the corner?
Harry Cliff is the Science Museum Fellow of Modern Science, which he reckons might be the only job title which begins and ends with 'science'. He spends half his time searching for signs of new physics at LHCb, one of the four big experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. For the other half, he indulges his love of talking about physics at the Science Museum, where he develop exhibitions, events and online content.
This talk was filmed in the Royal Institution on 31 October 2017.

Harry Cliff is one of those physicists who explain the most complex topics of physics in a brilliantly simple way ......just loved his presentation
-
Thank you Royal Institution for making this available freely. Such an engaging and informative lecture. Harry Cliff's enthusiasm is simply contagious. Explained in a simple and easy to understand manner.
-
Probably the best lecture on particle physics I've ever seen. Great presenter and very clearly thought out description for what are the greatest mysteries of the universe - no small feat!
-
The exciting takeaway is the quality of this man's intellect. To have achieved such a high and depth of knowledge, with such clarity and modesty is so stimulating and inspiring. His casual dress is a bonus.
-
One of the best presentations with a fabulous rhythm and content in front of a dead or disinterested audience with zero sense of humour!
-
This is by far the best single explanation of recent advances in physics I've seen.
-
Harry Cliff matches Brian Greene in his skill at explaining science with the added feature of presenting more words per second and the ability to share the excitement of his work with great visuals and gems of humor.
-
I’ve been interested in the Quantum physics for years, but I learnt some really basic things about the Standard Model I didn’t know. His coverage of things to be investigated was also inspiring. Very well done.
-
Beautifuly elegant talk. Harry Cliff takes us from the beginnings of quantenphsyics right to the front of research today. 100 years of physics which is sadly hardly known by the general population. I hope this man will give more lectures in the future!
-
Harry Cliff did a fantastic job preparing and giving this lecture. You don't need any prior knowledge of the area to be able to understand it. By the end, he cautiously tells us about a new and profound discovery that will truly reveal itself in the next year or two. I CAN"T WAIT!

24:42 is when it hit me. This universe we live in is amazing
-
Five star presentation Mr. Cliff.
-
I'm here because of the recent results from the Fermilab's muon g-2 experiment which is another strong evidence that we miss something from the standard model as Harry Cliff hinted at the end of this video.
-
A difficult topic explained with such a clarity is really great . Harry Cliff is a genius
-
His humor' is unique... Piloting over most of the audience's heads with joke/humor....graduate physics humor... the audience was happy anyway, bliss.
-
This was a very interesting explanation of what the Standard Model is about -- such a clear explanation of fields that make particles possible and what an atom consists of.
-
Best lecture I’ve ever seen on particle physics .... big up
-
36:45 This guy gets such an amazing spark in his eyes when he talks about this stuff and no one seems to react in the room. If I was there, I'd get up and give him a hug. Physics is so awesome it makes me cry. 😪
-
This guy is on fire. What an entertaining speaker.
