Join Karolina Wresilo @wtafkaz and Jon Carrick from @LancUniPhysics on a live discussion + ask questions about the invisible side of the Universe: dark matter, dark energy, neutrinos and future surveys/missions. https://t.co/jcFAf7XxEp Live at 5.30pm 24/06/2020
Congratulations to MicroBooNE collaborator Karolina Wresilo of @CambridgeHEP for winning the US National Lab Physics Slam in the Scientific Discovery category, explaining how neutrinos can explain the origins of the Universe.
The prototype of a novel particle detection system for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment successfully recorded its first accelerator neutrinos! 🙌

The case against Israel for the crime of genocide is absolutely devastating.
It's been filed by South Africa, and it presents a terrifying body of evidence to justify the claim.
I've gone through the document to explain what it says - and why the world must know about it.
Triantis began his journey with the DUNE project by crisscrossing the State of South Dakota at least a dozen times. He has taken thousands of photos of the people and places along the path of the future beamline. https://t.co/NsL0XK4Awv
And that's a wrap on DUNE collaboration week. So much progress, new people, and new institutions. Can't wait to see where we go from here. See you in Manchester!

I've now been asked multiple times for my take on Elon's offer for Twitter.
So fine, this is what I think about that. I will assume the takeover succeeds, and he takes Twitter private. (I have little knowledge/insight into how actual takeover battles work or play out)

Last week many of our researchers attended #IOPHEPPAPP2022 - the first big in-person event for many in over two years. Thanks to @IOP_HEPP and @RutherfordApLab for hosting such a great event. Here's a round-up of some of the great talks/posters by @Cambridge_Uni researchers...
The new #Wboson mass value shows tension with the value scientists expect based on the Standard Model. If confirmed, this measurement suggests the potential need for improvements to the Standard Model calculation—or extensions to the model.
The triumphant return of the in-person poster session at #IoPHEPPAPP2022 - its great to be able to do this in person again! Featuring Philip Detje, Karolina Wresilo, and Jingyuan Shi (all @CambridgeHEP) and Chris Thorpe (@LancUniPhysics)
Busy and fun day today! At 11:00 CT, Bonnie Fleming (Yale) and Pedro Machado (Fermilab) are speaking about big questions in particle physics! https://t.co/itvaB2IdXv
Check out #4! MicroBooNE had a record year with 23 new papers in 2021. All pioneering work being done by our amazing students, postdocs, faculty, and scientists in a very challenging year.
Big news! Major milestone reached! The second, and last, wire plane has been installed! You can see the 2 wire planes on each sides with the cathode in-between. Thank you to the incredible team of people whom have made this possible throughout the years! #neutrino#sbnd#fermilab
