I was really hoping to get in this fall before we sealed up again. I wanted to do possibly the first ATLAS HDRs.

Who knows where to download XRumer 5.0 Palladium?

The articles says they estimate that they will require 1000 quenches to reach 7 TeV, and they can only do about 3 quenches a day, which means training magnets for 2 months.

How does that math work out? If you can do at most 3 quenches on a magnet per day, that would require almost a year. I'm not sure if I understand your discussion about doing 8 quenches in parallel. Even if can divide this by 8, that's a minimum of 111 days, which is well over three months, not two.

Can you please clarify?

Good luck with your bump hunting. What sorts are you looking for?

Oh, and get rid of the mac-a-day thing on your blogroll. I just tried it out, and they haven't updated it in months.

damn you gossip dr ruining our lives!
We're not going to take it anymore!
I declare war on gossip dr!
I will find out who you are and expose you!

When he was over at CMS, he (or the producer) told us that the target date for airing is April 21, but that it probably won't actually air that day. They hope it airs before May.

Awesome!!!

aaaah it all falls into place.
With a #4 I was more expecting Higgs Boson research to have revealed something earth-shattering. Instead it's a new stick cartoon on an obscure comic website. There's a profound message about life in this somewhere. Maybe I'll pay less attention to google trends in the future. : )

excuse us Stephanie

2009-04-03T16:00:00.000+02:00

Oh, and I think the joke is that the one scientist is so far behind his colleagues in studying the Higgs boson that he's completely bewildered by what seems obvious to them. Or they're pulling a prank on him to make him think he is.

Because the popular nerd webcomic http://xkcd.com/ (seen above in this blog) referenced it today. It's not uncommon for xkcd to cause a Google trend if his reference or topic is obscure to most readers.

Just catching up on your February posts. Thanks for the LHC updates. I like getting your "on-the-scene" perspective.

2009-02-13T20:46:00.000+01:00

Seth, you are right. It is actually really informative for dumb blondes who only took high school level physics (F=MA!) -- and they answer their question colloquially, which is also good. I guess that is good PR for CERN?

Alison: Actually, CERN's Angels and Demons FAQ is a great example of the lab making lemons out of lemonade. The black holes were not handled quite so well, at least not at first.

Stephanie: I just got a cheap US/LHC blog entry out of, basically, linking to this entry. Feel free to mock me.

Very cool, Dr. Skippy.

2009-02-09T16:40:00.000+01:00

Very cool, Dr. Skippy.

Hmm, the talk seems to be available again... for a while it was definitely restricted.

The talk is still available, as far as I can see.

2008-12-02T11:14:00.000+01:00

Respect for putting the photos online. You'd think the organization that spawned the Web would do more to harness its power rather than engage in cover-up activity, especially in a time when openness would be better respected.

A follow-up comment ... the talk I linked to is no longer publicly available (although it was at the time of posting) in case you are trying to follow the link.
