From my very first problem set (homework) in graduate statistical mechanics. A deep and truly interesting question, touching on Hawking's famous ideas about black holes and thermodynamics. I never forgot this question. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/974015468783718400/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/48948 -

Them: "Meeting X will exceptionally start at 14:00 this week." Me: "I will exceptionally be competely shut out of Meeting X then because of the important Trigger General Meeting that starts at 14:00." Schedules in physics are a delicate thing. Easily changed, easily broken. -

From sciam https://twitter.com/sciam on Twitter: Renowned theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76. He revolutionized our understanding of black holes and overcame incredible adversity to become one of the world's greatest scientists. https://twitter.com/sciam/status/973899492402528256/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/48932 -

A rocket scientist, a super-string theorist, and a higgs hunter walk into a bar. Prof. Hawking suddenly leaves the bar. We are all very saddened by his departure. Most of us in the physics community were touched in some way by Hawking's ideas. He is already missed. -

Spring Break is upon us at SMU. This is a time to catch up on work, and do work, and to work. "Vacations are for undergraduates." (Robert Jastrow) -

... and also life as a faculty member, although those first two panels already have a low probability. Which makes the last two so much more painful. https://twitter.com/MkHeck/status/971127761145352193 -

Gabrielle Emilie Le Tonnelier de Breteuil, Marquise Du Chatelet: kinetic energy goes as the square of the speed of an object. This discovery set the stage for reformulating mechanics in terms of energy and energy conservation. #PHYS1303 https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/971725783675887621/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/48804 -
