Rather than allay such fears, public pronouncements by particle scientists themselves often unwittingly fan the flames of hysteria...This book surveys media depictions of particle accelerator physics and the perceived dangers these experiments pose. In addition, it describes the role of scientists in propagating such fears and misconceptions, offering as a conclusion ways in which the scientific community could successfully allay such misplaced fears through more effective communication strategies...The book is aimed at the general reader interested in separating fact from fiction in the field of high-energy physics, at science educators and communicators, and, last but not least, at all scientists concerned about these issues...About the Author..KristineM Larsen holds a Ph.D. in Physics and is currently a professor at Central Connecticut State University, New Britain, CT, in the Geological Sciences Department. She has published a number of books, among them The Women Who Popularized Geology in the 19th Century | | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | | 关键词 | Particle accelerator experiments in popular science; Safety of the LHC; misconceptions in science jour | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-12206-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-12205-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-12206-5Series ISSN 2197-1188 Series E-ISSN 2197-1196 | | issn_series | 2197-1188 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
