It was…freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Visiting CERN, an insider's perspectivehaha well a lot of what I do is computer based too, don't worryfreyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Visiting CERN, an insider's perspectivehaha well our offices are pretty crappy, if that's a comfort. We spend our money on cables and the experiments…freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Visiting CERN, an insider's perspectiveHappy to hear you like the post! We will start running again this spring, and fun results are coming out all the time.…freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Introduceyourself: Particle Physicist at the Compact Muon Solenoid at CERNHi, thanks! I don't personally study neutrinos in detail but do use them as they are produced in the collisions I study :)freyablekman (55)in #science • 7 years agoRE: The Building Blocks of Life - BasicsWhat a great post, I have a soft spot for biology and really enjoyed reading this intro. Thanks!freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Particle physics data taking and analysing - a 'quick' overviewI'd love to read about the hyperloop work, definitely! And let me know if you end up writing a song about Higgs…freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Particle physics data taking and analysing - a 'quick' overviewHappy to hear that, I think it is important to talk about the concepts, not to obfuscate with technicalities or…freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Particle physics data taking and analysing - a 'quick' overviewBoth (sorry!), there are known factors that the collisions are different, but also actual are actual statistical…freyablekman (55)in #steemstem • 7 years agoRE: Particle physics data taking and analysing - a 'quick' overviewthat is the nature of quantum physics.

Relatively it is, amazingly enough.
