Please call ahead to check. • Your attendance at any Festival event signifies your agreement to comply with the following guidelines for attendance: www.cam.ac.uk/sciencefestival/guidance The Festival gets very busy with around 30,000 people attending over the two weeks, so we ask for your patience with staff and volunteers as queues can occur and resources are limited. The Festival is hosted in working departments and is run by staff and student volunteers. We are trying to give you the best experience possible, while keeping events free-of-charge and accessible to everyone.

  • (Dis)Believing and Belonging: Investigating the Narratives of Young British Atheists1
    (Dis)Believing and Belonging: Investigating the Narratives of Young British Atheists1 REBECCA CATTO Coventry University JANET ECCLES Independent Researcher Abstract The development and public prominence of the ‘New Atheism’ in the West, particularly the UK and USA, since the millennium has occasioned considerable growth in the study of ‘non-religion and secularity’. Such work is uncovering the variety and complexity of associated categories, different public figures, arguments and organi- zations involved. There has been a concomitant increase in research on youth and religion. As yet, however, little is known about young people who self-identify as atheist, though the statistics indicate that in Britain they are the cohort most likely to select ‘No religion’ in surveys. This article addresses this gap with presentation of data gathered with young British people who describe themselves as atheists. Atheism is a multifaceted identity for these young people developed over time and through experience. Disbelief in God and other non-empirical propositions such as in an afterlife and the efficacy of homeopathy and belief in progress through science, equality and freedom are central to their narratives. Hence belief is taken as central to the sociological study of atheism, but understood as formed and performed in relationships in which emotions play a key role. In the late modern context of contemporary Britain, these young people are far from amoral individualists. We employ current theorizing about the sacred to help understand respondents’ belief and value-oriented non-religious identities in context. Keywords: Atheism, Youth, UK, Belief, Sacred Phil Zuckerman (2010b, vii) notes that for decades British sociologist Colin Campbell’s call for a widespread analysis of irreligion went largely un- heeded (Campbell 1971).

Kaminski*a a Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, University of Cambridge, New Museums Site, Pembroke Street, Cambridge, CB2 3RA, UK b Nanophotonics Centre, Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge, J J Thomson Avenue, Cambridge, CB3 0HE, UK c Department of Optics and Quantum Electronics, University of Szeged, H-6720 Szeged, Dóm tér 9, Hungary d Institute for Life Sciences and Department of Chemistry, University of Southampton, University Road, Southampton, SO17 1BJ, UK Corresponding authors: SM ([email protected]), CFK([email protected]) Coupling of light to the free electrons at metallic surfaces allows the confinement of electric fields to sub-wavelength dimensions, far below the optical diffraction limit. While this is routinely used to manipulate light at the nanoscale 1, in electro-optic devices 2 and enhanced spectroscopic techniques 3-6, no characterization technique for imaging the underlying nanoscopic electromagnetic fields exists which does not perturb the field 4, 7 or employs complex electron beam imaging 8, 9. Here, we demonstrate the direct visualization of electromagnetic fields on patterned metallic substrates at nanometer resolution, exploiting a strong ‘autonomous’ fluorescence-blinking behavior of single molecules within the confined fields allowing their localization. Use of DNA-constructs for precise positioning of fluorescence dyes on the surface induces this distance-dependent autonomous blinking thus completely obviating the need for exogenous agents or switching methods. Mapping such electromagnetic field distributions at nanometer resolution aids the rational design of nanometals for diverse photonic applications.
