I hope that @ jodi and @ sparky are having a wonderful time at Chez Cooley!

From petergleick@fediscience.org on Mastodon: As more mainstream media open accounts here on Mastodon, try to follow them. As they build up audiences here, it will make it easier for them to abandon that Xhit site over there. Does anyone have a list of good media accounts here?

The past few days at # QueensUniversity have been remarkable, both for @ SNOLAB activities and for me professionally. First, it is ALWAYS excellent to touch base with colleagues, especially students and post-docs, where they are. Great conversations about # darkmatter , job hunting, inclusivity, strategies for navigating the research environment, and even # imposterism . …

From TheConversationUS@newsie.social on Mastodon: Quantum dots, the discovery which won this year's # NobelPrize in chemistry, are part of a a technology transition that’s revolutionizing how people work with atoms and molecules. "It can be hard to remember just how much of a quantum leap the technology is that’s being used to promote the latest generation of flashy T…

Curious about the basic physics that allows for # QuantumDots to exist? Check out my lecture on solving the Schroedinger wave equation, which uses a 1 dimensional model for such a dot to explore the most basic properties (and how to control them) of these wondrous nanoparticle systems. https:// http://status.hackerposse.com/url/24702 dzD1dt5qohijWaQqq This is a technical …

Whew, this # chemistry # NobelPrize seems to have had some non-scientific controversy surrounding it, which the press in the room are pushing on. There was a leak of the press release about 4 hours before the announcement, it seems, before the formal decision would have been made. One of the press seemed concerned about the nationality of one of the recipients. This got spicy.

Awesome! This year’s # NobelPrize in # Chemistry is awarded for the creation of # QuantumDots ! I loved engaging with students in 3rd semester physics on this subject. It was easy to model a quantum dot using the infinite or finite square well quantum system. They could quickly understand some of how some of their mobile device and TV screens work. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/bbbc571e9bb7810b716799c1b2c5b2cd2be557a536187adc327fcf2a493f5ae6/view

It was a lovely day in # Kingston . I am getting a ton of things done while I am at # QueensUniversity this week, both for @ SNOLAB and for the # PICO and # HALO experiments. It is also nice to work to support the students and post-doc here who are working hard to do great science at SNOLAB. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/e5656cc8402143058a9d299f628a26f4785ef10924563e63cd23f6c6eb914789/view

I ahve decided that working from the Teams webapp is a superior user experience than from the desktop app. The former seems to respect system resources while the latter is a devastating scourge on processors and RAM.

Live: 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics I have decided to wake up nice and early today to watch the live stream of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics announcement. It will likely begin later than scheduled, but the formal event should begin around 5:45am ET. I’ll post here as the event unfolds. I am very curious and excited to see what the committee has selected for this year! h…

Looking forward to the # NobelPrize in # Physics being announced tomorrow morning at about 5:45am ET. After the # Medicine or # Physiology prize, which rightly acknowleged key work in mRNA that led to highly effective vaccines developed at outstanding speed, I am excited to see what is selected for my field tomorrow. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/a264eb6e1fcb0529e59e6bdb85fee0fac19f23502e4cf88b9e9b3ad82089c54e/view
