I recently finished the first steps of my little Arduino-Raspberry-Dart project called RaspuinoDart. Once I added the data-base backend it will appear on Github and more features will appear slowly after (hopefully).
Münster2017
Just returned from this year’s annual Spring Meeting of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (DPG) [German Physics Society] on particle physics in Münster.
I had the pleasure to chair a session on ‘searches for new particles’, listened to a few very nice talks, joined a couple of interesting discussions and got the chance to see a bit of a nice city.
Shiny new logo
Yesterday, I presented my design of a logo for the recently founded “Young High Energy Physicists Association” in it’s first general assembly at the DPG Spring Meeting in Münster.
Looks like people seem to be happy with it and it only awaits formal approval in an e-vote and to be used ;)
12 years CERN
Today it’s exactly twelve years that I have my CERN account :)
I first got it on 8 March 2005 when starting my internship in the high-energy-physics group at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, thereby laying the foundation of all that came afterwards … great people, great physics, great places … looking forward to more of all :)
Once again …
… we failed in getting a LEGO model of LHC experiments through the LEGO Ideas review.
After failing with my mini ATLAS model in 2014, yesterday LEGO finally rejected Nathan Readioff’s LHC micro models as well. Looks like we have to come up with yet another idea/design to finally reach our goal ;)
