This past was an exciting one on @SMU Honors Physics. This was "Hack-a-Thon" week, where students spent class time conducting experiments or doing calculations to help finalize their grand challenge problems on "The Physics of Cartoons." https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1456617006606831622/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/73086 In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -

From ATLASexperiment https://twitter.com/ATLASexperiment on Twitter: Check out these beautiful new event displays! On 29 October 2021, the ATLAS Experiment at @CERN recorded low-intensity test collisions. The LHC accelerated proton beams to 'injection energy' 450 GeV per beam in preparation for its restart next year. https://twitter.com/ATLASexperiment/status/1455227573093519360/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/73072 In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -
