We did it! The first cosmic test of Bell's inequality to choose experimental settings with astronomical sources https://t.co/bRRpuYDIJc

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

I also had a fascinating discussion about science and religion with John Martellaro @jmartellaro on the TMO Background Mode podcast @backgroundmode https://t.co/yVZ2HbGoml

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

I had a great time as a recent guest on the People Behind the Science @PBtScience podcast hosted by Dr. Marie McNeely @PhDMarie https://t.co/EnBpP6edh5

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

I'll be tackling "The Year in Space and Beyond" at @Comic_Con @futuretechlive with @UCSD Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences Profs Brian Keating @briankeating, Shelly Wright @ikashell, and NASA Astronaut / Texas A&M Prof Greg Chamitov https://t.co/8nWYsH1xux

[Prof. Brian Keating @Briankeating]

Looking forward to being with @andyfriedman2 and @ikashell on the Golden Anniversary of Apollo 11!

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

Thanks to Mat Kaplan with the @PlanRad podcast for hosting myself, @DavidBrin, @briankeating, and #JasonGallicchio, discussing our Cosmic Bell experiment and the wonderful @novapbs documentary, "Einstein's Quantum Riddle", hosted at @imagineUCSD https://t.co/E1NWb8y5zr

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

I recently was a guest on the @backgroundmode podcast with @jmartellaro talking about science fiction, cosmology, quantum entanglement, and all sorts of fun and crazy topics: https://t.co/FyivQEQXpx

[Planetary Radio @PlanRad]

Thanks for hosting a nice little conversation about the nature of all that exists! I look forward to sharing it on Planetary Radio.

Einstein’s Quantum Riddle: Special PBS NOVA Screening and Panel Discussion https://t.co/iAcx0pa9LL via @imagineucsd

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

Our astroparticle physics paper testing for new physics beyond the standard model with optical polarimetry of high redshift galaxies was just published in @PhysRevD https://t.co/ZfLV73lm7I

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

Congrats to Arturo Avelino @CenterForAstro for our recently submitted paper, "Type Ia Supernovae are Excellent Standard Candles in the Near-Infrared", https://t.co/id0GOssClh, where we quantify how much better these standard candles perform in the Infrared vs. Optical wavelengths

@UCSDnews just posted a press release about our recent @PhysRevA paper https://t.co/n0CaIV3wI2 where we show how easy it would be to fake quantum entanglement if measurement choices were not perfectly "free" https://t.co/6CdH0bpjLK

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

Our paper including a new version of Bell's theorem just got published in @PhysRevA https://t.co/n0CaIV3wI2
We show that if Alice and Bob's entanglement test measurement choices are not completely free, one can reproduce the quantum predictions while keeping locality and realism.

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

For those who missed in on Wed Jan 9, the PBS NOVA @novapbs documentary about our experiment is now streaming for free here, probably at least until next Wed Jan 16: https://t.co/Ue3xJAu4vF

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

...but you can also buy the DVD here: https://t.co/whKJsWkKXA

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

If you miss it live, it might later stream on the @novapbs website: https://t.co/GpO2XzoTtT

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

A teaser of the episode is here: https://t.co/BvD45h1yCv

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

@novapbs S46, E2 is airing a documentary, "Einstein's Quantum Riddle" about our cosmic Bell experiment testing quantum entanglement with astronomical observations in the Canary Islands. It premiers Wed Jan 9 at 9pm ET (6pm PST) on your local PBS station. https://t.co/Ue3xJAu4vF

[Andrew S. Friedman @andyfriedman2]

Check out this fun piece on quantum entanglement and our cosmic Bell experiment by Laura Dattaro in @symmetrymag https://t.co/LWjs3TwrSF
