Speaker - Andrew Holmes

On 15th September, Hungerford Rotary Club welcomes Professor Andrew Holmes to the Club. 

His talk, A Physicist’s Life, explains that a physicist doesn’t spend his career dressed in a white coat bent over a microscope in a laboratory.
Rather he has to go out into the World looking for or creating projects and working with other organisations to carry out the mission.  Some of the work involves deep thought at the edges of physics knowledge, some involves complex engineering - usually both at the same time. 
His talk will look at these aspects spread out over a sixty-year career.
Professor Holmes has a distinguished academic background and a career including over two decades spent at the UK Atomic Energy Authority (Culham Lab), specialising in plasma heating and ion beam research for thermonuclear fusion.
