Super informative article about the challenges of recycling car batteries (and why we need to think ahead) https://t.co/y88kxTnIdI

Curious about working in scientific publishing? Come by the Physical Review booth at the Job Expo of #apsmarch Wednesday and Thursday (hint: we've got three job openings) https://t.co/RQWi85u0sC

[Jessica Thomas @KJessicaThomas]

Love seeing a physics talk that starts with “What difference will it make?” Jenny Nelson of @imperialcollege on solar photovoltaic microgrids in the “Physics for Development” session at #apsmarch

[Physics Magazine @PhysicsMagazine]

Specially perforated materials break in a preferential direction. Results from researchers at @Caltech https://t.co/T4GD9Gfg4x

Read to the bottom to find out about the collective behavior of drunk worms!

[Physics Magazine @PhysicsMagazine]

Mental health, nickel-based superconductors, and dark matter are among the stars of @PhysicsMagazine’s favorite stories of the year. #PhysicsHighlights2020

Since I couldn’t travel, @MatsLindroos1 gave me this “zoom tour” of @essneutron

[Jessica Thomas @KJessicaThomas]

My piece in @PhysicsMagazine on energy-saving technologies for particle accelerators. Thanks to @erk_jensen and @MatsLindroos1 for explaining the science and sharing their passion for sustainability.

[Physics Magazine @PhysicsMagazine]

Bicycle paths heated with waste heat from a physics lab? This is one of several ideas being explored to reduce the energy consumption of particle accelerators. @erk_jensen @essneutron https://t.co/dRAuEyKZHq

This really is one of the prettiest physics images I've seen this year.

My piece for 𝗣𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝘀: 𝘿𝙞𝙜𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 3𝘿 𝙌𝙪𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙪𝙢 𝙃𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙀𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩
on the experiments and recent theory for this long-sought-after effect. With huge thanks to @KJessicaThomas https://t.co/a9Bs6yqMdG

[Andreas Wallraff @AndreasAtETH]

Check out this result from @qudev @ETH_physics @ETH_en alumnus Johannes Fink @fink_johannes @ISTAustria and his group showing that there is still more to learn about #inductors!

"As sometimes happens in science, the result was in part a stroke of luck"

[Physics World @PhysicsWorld]

Five different phases of a colloid-polymer mixture can co-exist at the same time, in defiance of the 150-year-old Gibbs phase rule, which states that only three simultaneous phases are possible.

My phone reminded me that it's been 1 year since my (wonderful) trip to the University of Buenos Aires—and several circles around this building before I realized it wasn't the physics department.

[Jessica Thomas @KJessicaThomas]

Great talk from @Brad_Marston in his Physical Review Colloquium about climate, topology, and how to build a stronger connection between physics and climate science.

[Jessica Thomas @KJessicaThomas]

I got to use the word "antispaghetti" in this write up about neutron stars. Surely that's a concept for a sci-fi movie?

[Physics Magazine @PhysicsMagazine]

Neutrino emission from a neutron star’s inner crust may be stronger than previously thought. @ASU https://t.co/F7xCmApgpH

Say "fermion" and smile: The @APSPhysicsEd writers and editors get together for our annual retreat. @KennJessThom @erikakcarlson @KatRWright

Thanks @netsci2020 for inviting me to be part of this. So many interesting (and tough) questions to think about.

[Jessica Thomas @KJessicaThomas]

Husband: What is the Hall effect?

Me: 10-20 breathless minutes about the classical version vs the QHE, the beauty of condensed matter, etc.

Husband: Um, because I think we may need to replace the Hall sensor in the washing machine.

Physics 200 at @YalePhysicsDept with Malcolm Boshier: Your problem sets with Ferraris are what converted me from an applied math major. This Week: We Thank Our Teachers https://t.co/pjqNJBJpEJ

Elvis lives on--kinda--in black hole mergers! LIGO and Virgo spot black holes of very different masses spiraling together and emitting gravitational waves of two frequencies. The result may strike a chord with fans of the King. @LIGO @APSphysics #apsapril https://t.co/dHFsVShMW9
