Today the Weltmaschine exhibition starts in Berlin!
Its supposed to be a very nice exhibition on the LHC and the connected experiments such as ATLAS. There’s physicists from all over Germany coming to the Bundestag Subway Station in Berlin to explain the physics and more to the visitors.
ATLAS Control Room
Woohoo … since today I have access rights to the ATLAS Control Room!
Actually nothing too special … but anyway!
Tomorrow I’ll have my first part of the training for the Pixel shifts that I am supposed to take in the near future.
Excitement!!!<
LHC Inauguration
Just got my invitation for the Official LHC Inauguration on October 21st this year …
The going to be quite a large number of people around on this day.
And apparently Mr. Molecular Cuisine, Ettore Bocchia, will be responsible for the food that evening while Frans Lanting and his music and media show ORIGINS (adapted from the LIFE show) will entertain the crowd … which by quite a fraction will consist of VIPs from all around the world! … Very much looking forward to it!
First impressions from CERN
Well the first two weeks (with a little break though) are already over …
I am slowly settling in Geneva and at CERN … quite a few new things that came up during these weeks … and quite some work, man! But its cool … ;)
Here’s two pictures of the Globe in yesterday’s fine Geneva morning fog and of my office (I sit on the left side) at CERN. Btw the weather got really nice later the day … it often starts shitty like this …
300
Finally managed to watch one of the movies that was on my “2watch”-list for quite some time … “300” is another fine piece of fantasy, historical action movie.
For those of you that like these kind of movies you should certainly give it a try (for the other, maily female, readers … theres a lot of half naked greek warriors ;)
Anyway … its a cool movie to watch on a Sunday morning ;)
