Peter Clarke is a Professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Edinburgh.
His early research work included the first measurements of direct CP violation in the Kaon system at the CERN NA31 experiment. At UCL he worked on construction of the ATLAS experiment for the Large Hadron Collider. He now works on studies of CP violation (the asymmetry between matter and anti-matter) as a member of the LHCb experiment at the LHC.
The lecture will be followed by a drinks reception where delegates can continue discussions on the evenings topics, meet old friends and make new acquaintances.

The IET Kelvin Lecture was set up to commemorate the life of three time president, Lord Kelvin who died in office in December 1907. The first lecture was given by IEE President Silvanus P Thompson on the Life of Lord Kelvin and the lecture is the IET's oldest running lecture after the President's Address.
We have presentations from past lectures, some of which have also been captured on video.
