Abstract

Originally prepared for ICHEP2020, A Day with Particles is a short independent film by three ATLAS physicists at Charles University in Prague. The 30 minute film follows a day in the life of postdoc Vojtech Pleskot, it mixes hand-drawn animations, deft sound design and a brisk script targeted at viewers with no knowledge of physics.
