From NASAExoplanets https://twitter.com/NASAExoplanets on Twitter: The @Chandraxray Deep Field contains 7 million seconds worth of the telescope's observing time. Colored dots are black holes or galaxies. In this data sonification, colors dictate the tones as the bar moves from the bottom of the image to the top. https://chandra.si.edu/photo/2021/sonify3/animations.html https://twitter.com/NASAExoplanets/status/1375490479094181894/video/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/71524 In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -

We're running a workshop this summer built around Quantum Party!, a board game we developed to introduce quantum mechanics.

From ehtelescope https://twitter.com/ehtelescope on Twitter: For the first time, EHT scientists have mapped the magnetic fields around a black hole using polarized light waves. With this breakthrough, we have taken a crucial step in solving one of astronomys greatest mysteries.

I was drowning in teaching and dept. chair stuff yesterday. "What did I miss?" he sang at the beginning of the next act... :-) It's impressive to see how far b->sll has come in the last 20 years. LHCb should be proud just of the precision. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2021/mar/23/large-hadron-collider-scientists-particle-physics In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink Attachments

From JLab_News https://twitter.com/JLab_News on Twitter: #OTD in 1891 Soviet physicist Sergey Ivanovich Vavilov was born in Moscow.. Vavilov was known for his works with luminescence. In 1934, he co-discovered the Vavilov-Cherenkov effect, which garnered Pavel Cherenkov a #NobelPrize in Physics in 1958. https://twitter.com/JLab_News/status/1374704556223967237/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/71479 In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -

From LHCbPhysics https://twitter.com/LHCbPhysics on Twitter: Test of lepton universality in beauty quark decays https://t.co/QWjHNw1i8Z. The Standard Model predicts identical electroweak interaction strengths for electron, muon and tau. The result R_K = 0.846+0.044-0.041 constitutes evidence for lepton flavour violation. https://twitter.com/LHCbPhysics/status/1374271744136118273/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/71475 In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -

From NASAJPL https://twitter.com/NASAJPL on Twitter: Today marks the astronomical end of winter and the #FirstDayOfSpring in the Northern Hemisphere. This evening, look up to see Mars and the bright star, Aldebaran, appearing at their closest to each other (under 7-degrees apart).

OK, UpROOT4/AwkwardArray users: I want to truth-match jets in a ROOT file. I have different-sized arrays of true/reco. jet info (eta, phi). I want to DeltaR match and store matching jet info. Best way? Feel free to respond here: https://t.co/lFYTFCtqIB @kratsg @HEPfeickert In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink Attachments

The SMU Vaccination Clinic: all dressed up with no vaccine to administer. I get that it may not be a priority site, but I am frustrated at the idea of a legit vaccination site of any kind denied an allotment week after week after week. https://www.smudailycampus.com/news/coronavirus-on-the-hilltop-a-look-at-the-smu-vaccination-clinic In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink Attachments

From COVID19Tracking https://twitter.com/COVID19Tracking on Twitter: We don't know what path this Michigan outbreak is going to take, but this could prove a bellwether for what happens when new variants of concern encounter populations with less vaccine access.

From COVID19Tracking https://twitter.com/COVID19Tracking on Twitter: For many weeks now, the number of cases and hospitalizations has been going down across the country. Unfortunately, that trend has now reversed in the state of Michigan. Cases * and * hospitalizations are both on the rise there. https://twitter.com/COVID19Tracking/status/1372713658254467076/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/71427 In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -

From aaas https://twitter.com/aaas on Twitter: If you ask scientists to define life, you literally get hundreds of different answers. Im not exaggerating, says three-time @AAASKavli Award-winner @carlzimmer. His new book Lifes Edge explores what it means to be alive.

I take over #PHYS1303 next week from @profcooley and she heads off to teach the 2nd half of a special Higgs/Dark Matter course. Today I joined class to learn her best practices. 1 minute into her problem demo, she loses her notes and under the bus I go. Trial by fire! :-) In conversation from chirp.cooleysekula.net permalink -

From mikewarburton https://twitter.com/mikewarburton on Twitter: So you remember MICHAEL WINSLOW as the guy from the Police Academy movies right? Well, he was that for sure. But he was also a whole lot more. Just check him out here killing it with Led Zeppelins Whole Lotta Love on Norwegian TV.
