Description

The rest of season three is still under development! We wanted to improve the clarity before publishing. Parity violation just isn't that easy to talk about! In the mean time, here is the second episode in a short bonus series about the state and future contemporary particle physics. I hope you enjoy it!

This is an essay that we originally posted on our substack page:
https://pasayteninstitute.substack.com/p/we-should-build-a-muon-collider

Four Reasons we should build a new particle collider:
1. We still have more science to do!
2. Technology transfer to Medicine and Industry
3. Institutional memory is valuable
4. Even more science comes with it!

Share these reasons with someone, especially if they doubt the need for more Scientific funding!
