This is a catastrophe for #particlephysics and #cosmology if it succeeds, by the way 🔭🧪⚛️

Department of Energy is indeed sending out notices to universities cancelling all of our grants unless the university agrees to a 15% rate cap.

Crop of a painting: Inspired by antique nautical maps depicting monsters in unknown waters, a worn celestial map shows dark matter styled as a draconic serpent wrapping around galaxies. (Dark matter is like a gravitational glue that binds galaxy clusters together, while dark energy pushes them apart.) Imagery and labels on objects around the map (books, papers, photos) suggest dark matter candidates like axions, WIMPs and black holes. #Art by Olena Shmahalo for Scientific American → https://www.olenashmahalo.com/project/here-be-monsters

This generation ship's body is shaped like a maple seed, intersected by two large wheels that would generate artificial gravity along their interior.

Crop of the right panel, illustrating the topic *Illuminate the Invisible Universe* from the 2023 P5 report: The evolution of the universe in three stages – 1. primordial cosmic soup / CMB, 2. current distribution of stars and galaxies, 3. further expansion.

I'm putting the final touches on my second book #EdgeOfSpaceTime and the entire book is an argument for #cosmology and #particlephysics through #poetry. Part of what we can do in #scicomm is make those connections for people. Those connections are powerful & motivating for people, esp in hard times.

Happy 71st anniversary CERN 🎉 #OnThisDay 71 years ago, twelve European countries came together to establish what has become the world’s largest #ParticlePhysics laboratory, home to the #LHC, birthplace of the World Wide Web and where the #HiggsBoson was discovered thirteen years ago.

The biggest questions in the universe are on page 12! #particlephysics ⚛️ 🧪

BOX 1-1 Big Questions 1. What explains the pattern of forces and matter? The masses of the elementary particles span more than 12 orders-of-magnitude with no clear pattern or explanation. The other properties of quarks and leptons have patterns that have thus far eluded a convincing explanation. Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and at future accelerators can provide clues to these mysteries. 2. Why is there more matter than anti matter in the universe? The excess of matter in the universe could be explained as a consequence of particle interactions that violate charge conjugation and charge parity symmetry and baryon number conservation in the early universe. Neutrinos and the Higgs can also play roles. Progress can be made through precise measurements of the properties of neutrinos, such as through the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment , and the search for neutrino-less double beta decay, as well as a better understanding of the Higgs, for example, at the LHC and future colliders. 3. Why is the Higgs boson so light and how does it interact with itself? The Higgs is both the simplest and most perplexing of all elementary particles. The Higgs coupling to quarks and leptons provides their mass; yet the light mass of the Higgs itself is a deep mystery, and its self-interactions have not yet been measured. The High Luminosity LHC will measure its properties, determine whether it has substructure or is truly elementary, and what that might imply about the evolution of the universe. 4. What is the nature of dark matter and dark energy? Dark matter and dark energy have been observed through their gravitational effects, constitute most of the matter and energy in the universe, and are central to cosmology; yet many of their properties have not been determined. The detection and study of dark matter and dark energy is among most urgent goals of experimental particle physics and astrophysics.

The puzzle of neutrinos, seventy years on Theorised in 1930 and discovered in 1956, the elusive neutrino still keeps many of its secrets, inspiring research efforts at CERN and around the world. Find out more: home.cern/the-puzzle-o... #Neutrino70 #Neutrino #ParticlePhysics #Science
