There is a twitch channel by a German particle accelerator project called "wave_hamburg", that is streaming the Taylor Swift Eras Tour in Hamburg via the vibrations their instruments pick up from cheering Swifties in the stadium 2km away. 😃😃😃

This might be the nerdiest way to watch the Eras Tour and I'm in love 😂🥰

Basically, at this institute called DESY, they are running an extremely high energy and high precision X-ray gun at a project called Petra. They normally use this to identify the molecular structure of stuff. (They were one of the first groups who figured out the structure of the SARS-CoV-2 virus 😃). And because they are dealing with this super high precision thing, they actually have to account for stuff like scientists walking around in the building or cars driving by, so they have this extremely sensitive network of instruments that is just there to pick up the tiniest vibrations. And that's sensitive enough, to pick up on the vibrations of Swifties cheering in the stadium 2 kilometres away. 😃

what's wrong babe you've barely touched your potential even though all your elementary teachers really liked you and said you were gifted and that you were going to do great things

Photons, hadrons and where they meet

The next particle collider to be built, not counting the planned upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, seems likely to be the “Electron-Ion Collider” (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island in the US. This will not be a machine probing the frontiers of high energy, but it will bring some exciting new capabilities, and it will indirectly help us understand the energy…

The secret to being a private person is to overshare dumb shit so people think you are an open book but then not tell them any of the important details of your life.
