@ktfreese aw. Looks like a wonderful being. Sorry for your loss.

Last summer, I celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Standard Model with Nobel Laureates. I then celebrated my great-grandmother’s 103rd birthday. The experiences were not dissimilar.

Scientists think that, under some circumstances, dark matter could generate powerful enough gravitational waves for equipment like @LIGO to detect: https://t.co/MFJRoWkS1u

@sheydaipek @FlipTanedo @AngelaDSaini thanks for the recommendation. i just started it

[Ann E Nelson @anelson77]

@FlipTanedo currently reading "Inferior: How science got women wrong" by Angela Saini. Seems like it might be good.

ApJL papers are up! Get them here. There's a whole Focus Issue with 6 papers, and a summary page:

what a thrill

[MIT CSAIL @MIT_CSAIL]

3 years ago MIT grad student Katie Bouman led the creation of a new algorithm to produce the first-ever image of a black hole.

Today, that image was released.

Stunning footage. I wonder how normal this is?

Hi.

[NYT Science @NYTScience]

Karen Uhlenbeck helped pioneer a field known as geometric analysis, and she developed techniques now commonly used by many mathematicians. Today she has become the first woman to win the Abel Prize in mathematics. https://t.co/gui1za1xW8

A new, relatively small, experiment at CERN to search for exotic particles with "long" (e.g. 0.1 sec) lifetimes.

[CERN @CERN]

The experiment, which will complement existing searches for #DarkMatter at the #LHC, will be operational in 2021.

For years, @NASAHubble observing proposals led by men have had higher success rates than those led by women. Then @stsci adopted dual-anonymous review—and the results are impressive https://t.co/KztgAerMkg by Lou Strolger & @SheerPriya #WomenInSTEM

Just saw him talk about a more realistic application of this idea to the hierarchy problem. Nice to see a new idea for why we haven't yet found an explanation for the size of the Higgs mass from LHC discoveries

For a year I've been reporting this story about major climate news, finally breaking today: A new simulation finds that global warming could cause stratocumulus clouds to disappear in as little as a century, which would add 8°C (14°F) of extra warming. https://t.co/1cSmLOsmOS
