SUMMARY:LCAS Monthly Meeting - The Cosmos in the Lab: Exploring the Dark Matter Mass Scale with Direct Detection
DESCRIPTION:While the astrophysical and cosmological evidence supporting the existence of a gravitationally-active dark matter is overwhelming\, no signals unambiguously attributable to it have yet been observed in laboratory experiments. The prevailing hypothesis is that the dark matter is comprised of a new fundamental particle not found in the Standard Model of Particle Physics. In that framework\, the possible mass of the dark matter particle ranges over 50 orders of magnitude\, posing a challenging and exciting landscape for detection. In this talk\, Dr. Dylan J Temples of Fermilab will briefly review the evidence supporting dark matter and the properties which a fundamental particle must satisfy to be dark matter. From there\, he will discuss the signatures of dark matter models across the range of allowed masses and the detector technologies used to investigate them. Finally\, He will provide some outlook on dark matter searches in the future from the viewpoint of an experimentalist. \nZoom Meeting Link  Meeting Link  \n

SUMMARY:AUTCL - Deerfield
DESCRIPTION:**10/28/25 UPDATE Due to forecasted cloudy skies the Deerfield Astronomy Under the City Lights event will be moved to Wednesday\, October 29th** \nAstronomy Under the City Lights is a free to all-ages event presented by the Lake County Astronomical Society in cooperation with local libraries. LCAS volunteers will bring sophisticated telescopes to allow the public to view the Moon and other objects in the sky. \nVisitors are welcome to view at any time during the scheduled hours\, and stay as long as they want. No registration is required. Groups are welcome. \nIn the event of bad weather we have a back up date of October 29th.
