- **Event Description**: How do we make sense of an uncertain Universe?About this EventPROF ANDREW H JAFFE Talk and BOOK SIGNING!LOCATION: Martin Wood Lecture Theatre, Clarendon Laboratory, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PUHow do we make sense of an uncertain Universe? In this lecture, inspired by my book, The Random Universe, I will weave science, philosophy, and history, from David Hume’s challenge to the probabilistic insights of Thomas Bayes. I will tell stories such as Arthur Eddington’s eclipse expedition that confirmed Einstein’s theory of gravity, and explore ideas from thermodynamics and quantum mechanics that place fundamental limits on certainty. I will also discuss modern debates about the Big Bang and the difficulty of extracting truth from imperfect data. I will reflect on how science builds knowledge—and why that process matters today.For further details, please email leanne.odonnell@physics.ox.ac.uk  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/57075e60-185a-11f1-bb3a-635179641116-rimg-w522-h740-dc040405-gmir.jpg
