(2/2)... , intense and expensive proton collisions at CERN to help discover mysterious long-lived particles that could explain the weakness of gravity, the nature of dark matter, and/or the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of our universe. Now we just have to get approved and build it!!
(1/2) The MATHUSLA CDR is out, after years of work by dozens of brilliant people, as well as a few redesigns in response to the shifting sands of the funding landscape. This groundbreaking 40m detector proposal for the HL-LHC will robustly maximize the discovery potential of our most energetic...
Most heartwarming thing I read today
25-year-old rando pushing code into production systems for incredibly sensitive, mission-critical Treasury payments to set up potentially illegal blocking of payments Musk doesn't like
We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.
The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds.
It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.
um... hi my dear American friends..... the news coming from down south is truly head-spinning. how will this be affecting you? I imagine LGBTQ2S+ folks are obviously having a hard time, but it seems that all of my scientist friends and anyone relying on federal grants will be severely compromised?

Speaking professionally, I think that’s a perfectly acceptable level of snark for a thesis
Yeah should all work out. We’ll be there late Feb - end of August. Got a place in thoiry. See you there!
Applying for my partner's french visa for upcoming CERN sabbatical. Calling French consulate in Montreal: 'pour un service en français, compose le un 1. pour un service en anglais, compose les deux'. Press 2. <Line dead>. Thank you Montreal :D

It provides a beautiful top-down view of the FN theory space and suggests new discovery opportunities in charged lepton flavor violation and cosmological probes. (This paper was uploaded over new years due to reasons, hence I promote it now that more people are back online, it deserves eyeballs.)
My grad student Micah Mellors just finished his first paper, together with awesome collaborators Claudia Cornella and Gordan Krnjaic, on probing the leptonic Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism in generality using flavor-violating probes. arxiv.org/abs/2501.00629
Elon Musk’s editorial in the German newspaper ‘Welt am Sonntag’ officially, undeniably and openly makes him a self-professed neo-nazi supporter. The fact that this exact description isn’t headlines all over the US makes obvious how impotent the American press apparatus is. Get fucked you Nazi fuck.
Bold of you to assume that stack is ever getting finished
G’day everyone. Super intrigued by what’s happening here after basically swearing off social media (especially X-twitter) years ago. This kinda feels like the good old days of the social internet, despite the fact that we clearly live in the bad timeline. Nice to see so many physics friends here. ❤️
