Super informative article about the challenges of recycling car batteries (and why we need to think ahead) sciencemag.org/news/2021/05/…
Curious about working in scientific publishing? Come by the Physical Review booth at the Job Expo of #apsmarch Wednesday and Thursday (hint: we've got three job openings) march.aps.org/events/expo/
Love seeing a physics talk that starts with “What difference will it make?” Jenny Nelson of @imperialcollege on solar photovoltaic microgrids in the “Physics for Development” session at #apsmarch

My piece in @PhysicsMagazine on energy-saving technologies for particle accelerators. Thanks to @erk_jensen and @MatsLindroos1 for explaining the science and sharing their passion for sustainability.
Bicycle paths heated with waste heat from a physics lab? This is one of several ideas being explored to reduce the energy consumption of particle accelerators. @erk_jensen @essneutron go.aps.org/36FQGuE
Since I couldn’t travel, @MatsLindroos1 gave me this “zoom tour” of @essneutron
This really is one of the prettiest physics images I've seen this year.

Check out this result from @qudev @ETH_physics @ETH_en alumnus Johannes Fink @fink_johannes @ISTAustria and his group showing that there is still more to learn about #inductors!

"As sometimes happens in science, the result was in part a stroke of luck"
Five different phases of a colloid-polymer mixture can co-exist at the same time, in defiance of the 150-year-old Gibbs phase rule, which states that only three simultaneous phases are possible.

My phone reminded me that it's been 1 year since my (wonderful) trip to the University of Buenos Aires—and several circles around this building before I realized it wasn't the physics department.
Great talk from @Brad_Marston in his Physical Review Colloquium about climate, topology, and how to build a stronger connection between physics and climate science.
I got to use the word "antispaghetti" in this write up about neutron stars. Surely that's a concept for a sci-fi movie?
Neutrino emission from a neutron star’s inner crust may be stronger than previously thought. @ASU go.aps.org/3jwv9Zv

Thanks @netsci2020 for inviting me to be part of this. So many interesting (and tough) questions to think about.

Husband: What is the Hall effect?
Me: 10-20 breathless minutes about the classical version vs the QHE, the beauty of condensed matter, etc.
Husband: Um, because I think we may need to replace the Hall sensor in the washing machine.

Elvis lives on--kinda--in black hole mergers! LIGO and Virgo spot black holes of very different masses spiraling together and emitting gravitational waves of two frequencies. The result may strike a chord with fans of the King. @LIGO @APSphysics #apsapril sciencemag.org/news/2020/04/…
