[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

Listen to chemist Venkatraman Ramakrishnan as he shares some valuable advice to young scientists.

Ramakrishnan was awarded the 2009 chemistry prize “for studies of the structure and function of the ribosome.” This clip is from his participation in Nobel Minds in 2009.

Formation of conic sections ✍️

Circle: When the cutting plane is perpendicular to the axis of the cone, the cross-section is a circle.

Ellipse: When the plane is angled, but still cuts through only one cone (without being parallel to the side of the cone), the result is an ellipse.

Parabola: If the plane is parallel to the side (slant) of the cone, it creates a parabola.

Hyperbola: If the plane cuts both halves of the double cone, it forms a hyperbola - two separate curves.

Here we see groups of visitors on a tour of the @CMSexperiment labs.

The groups visited the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) and high-granularity calorimeter (HGCAL) labs, where new pieces of the CMS detector are created to cope with the higher number of collisions at the High-Luminosity #LHC.

ECAL measures the energies of electrons and photons, whereas HGCAL is a major upgrade of CMS, necessary to maintain excellent calorimetric performance in the detector’s endcaps during #HiLumiLHC operations.

Stern-Gerlach Experiment (1922) ✍️

Otto Stern and Walther Gerlach demonstrated electron spin by deflecting silver atoms in a magnetic field.

The Stern-Gerlach experiment is one of the foundational experiments in quantum mechanics, conducted by Otto Stern and Walther Gerlach in 1922. It was designed to investigate how atoms behave in a magnetic field, particularly how their magnetic moments interact with an external inhomogeneous magnetic field. The experiment used a beam of silver atoms, which were heated in a furnace and directed through a series of slits to form a narrow, well-collimated beam. This beam was then passed through a region with an inhomogeneous magnetic field, which exerted different forces on the atoms depending on the orientation of their magnetic moments.

According to classical physics, the magnetic moment of an atom—arising from the motion of electrons—should be able to point in any direction. As a result, when subjected to a magnetic field gradient, atoms would be deflected by varying amounts, producing a continuous smear or spread on a detector screen. This expectation was based on the assumption that angular momentum and magnetic moment were continuous classical quantities.

However, the actual result was strikingly different. Instead of a continuous distribution, the silver atoms split into two distinct spots on the detection screen. This indicated that the magnetic moment of the atoms, and hence the spin of the unpaired electron in the silver atoms, could only take on two discrete values. This was one of the first clear demonstrations that angular momentum—and more specifically quantum spin—is quantized, meaning it can only take on certain discrete values. For silver atoms, this corresponds to spin-up or spin-down along the direction of the magnetic field.

The choice of silver atoms was crucial. Each silver atom has a single unpaired electron in its outermost shell, while the inner electrons pair up and cancel each other's magnetic moments. Therefore, the magnetic properties of the silver atom are due entirely to the spin of this one electron, making the system an ideal candidate for observing spin quantization.

The implications of the Stern-Gerlach experiment were profound. It provided concrete evidence that classical ideas could not explain atomic-scale phenomena, and that quantum mechanics—with its probabilistic and quantized framework—was necessary. It not only confirmed the existence of quantised spin but also laid the groundwork for further developments in quantum theory, quantum measurement, and technologies like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and quantum computing.

🔭✨ En el corazón del Desierto de Atacama, donde los cielos son más prístinos que en cualquier otro lugar, se construye el telescopio más ambicioso de la historia: el Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). 👀

Con un espejo de 39 metros, será el primero con capacidad para detectar signos de vida fuera del Sistema Solar. 🌍🚀

¿Será este el inicio de la búsqueda de una segunda Tierra?👇
