  Keith & Russ talk with Jørgen Randrup with the Nuclear Science division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.  He gives us a tutorial on the atom, the nucleus, and the quark.  Do quarks consist of even smaller particles?  How are they held together?  And Randrup discusses the mysterious "dark matter" that makes up most of the universe, though it has never been directly observed.

Aired March 29, 2015.
