Find out about the ideas behind the almost 50 yr long search for the #Higgs Boson, its discovery at the LHC, and why it is so important! Check out the "The Mystery of the Higgs Boson" #eBook in English https://t.co/wJmyagC3kX or German https://t.co/IixbJc5BrY #scicomm #wisskomm

The ‘doomsday’ glacier’s giant ice shelf is about to break away

The floating ice shelf of world’s widest glacier ― Thwaites glacier in Antarctica ― is detaching, with worrying implications for global sea-level rise

Dass die CO2-Emissionen nicht mehr so stark ansteigen wie 2011 im 'worst-case' Szenario (RCP8.5) angenommen, ist mindestens teilweise Erfolg der Klimapolitik. Es ist ein wichtiger Schritt in die richtige Richtung, aber keineswegs Grund zur Entwarnung.

✨What you see is a pair of colliding galaxies known as UGC 4211, which allowed scientists to detect two rapidly growing black holes separated by a mere 750 light-years.

Literally devastating news

And almost certainly even worse because the models don't include the effects of huge volumes of Greenland meltwater pouring into the North Atlantic at a rate of 30 million tonnes AN HOUR

New observations from the Very Large Telescope in Chile may have caught a Jupiter-like planet at its moment of birth around another star.
The universe just keeps on building more cool things.

I just published an explainer on aerosols and their role in the climate that I've been working on for the past few months! It includes both how aerosols work, how emissions have changed, and how thats driven recent warming (link below).

Another fusion world record was set with help from PPPL — this time in the German fusion system Wendelstein 7-X. The Lab, an @ENERGY national lab managed by @Princeton, played a key role in the experiment, developing a diagnostic and control system. ➡️ https://t.co/oHlcyMDXMf

[DOE Office of Science @doescience]

Fusion powers the sun and could one day make electricity on Earth. To do so, devices must maintain the plasma that powers fusion’s reaction. Researchers @PPPLab developed a new computer code to help design a future fusion device: https://t.co/lOGhj9gVXe

[ALICE Experiment @ALICEexperiment]

Transforming lead nuclei into gold nuclei is not a dream anymore! The ALICE experiment has measured the production of gold and other nuclei obtained from the emission of a few protons from the original lead nucleus!
