📣 CERN scientists find evidence of quantum entanglement in sheep 🐑 Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon where two particles’ states are tied to each other, no matter how far apart the particles are. These findings could now help to explain the species’ fascinating flocking behaviour.

Waar komen hoogenergetische kosmische deeltjes in het heelal vandaan? Op die vraag kan een netwerk van 1.660 radiotelescopen mogelijk antwoord geven. Een Nijmeegs team van wetenschappers bouwde dit netwerk van telescopen in Argentinië, dat sinds een paar weken driftig data verzamelt.

Het is geen toeval dat het huidige kabinet grote steun heeft van mensen die niet academisch opgeleid zijn. Opleidingsniveau is immers een steeds belangrijkere scheidslijn in de Nederlandse maatschappij. Taalwetenschapper Lotte Hogeweg roept de universiteit op tot zelfreflectie.

Hey y'all US friends! Did you see my postdoc ad to come and work with me on CMS? inspirehep.net/jobs/2864716 We usually get very few American applicants in EU unis (zero again, so far), but maybe at this moment in time it's a nice opportunity? Deadline is flexible.

Wow! Een mooie stap op @CERN wat betreft 'open data'. De volledige data-set van het Delphi experiment van LEP staat online (dankzij Ulrich Schwickerath en collega's): opendata.cern.ch/docs/delphi-... Volledig, dus: ruwe data, reconstructie, simulatie, software (framework) en documentatie👏

Two Higgs bosons are better than one! In a measurement constituting a legacy of Run 2 at the LHC, the CMS experiment combines numerous searches for production of not one but two Higgs bosons. 🔎We're closer to observation of this elusive process than ever. Read more: cms.cern/news/tale-tw...
