The principal components of the dilution refrigerator for the @SuperCDMS experiment have arrived! These components have made their way to SNOLAB after completing performance testing at Fermilab.  🧵 (1/3)

🔔New IceCube results to be published in @ScienceMag tomorrow! For the first time, IceCube found evidence of high-energy neutrino emission from NGC 1068, an active galaxy in the constellation Cetus and one of the most familiar and well-studied galaxies. #IceCubeNGC1068

Just two more days until our exploration day in the @BoulbyLab @STFC_Matters Mars Yard! We have some truly incredible Mars Rovers ready to go! Looking forward to seeing all the innovative ideas in action! #MarsRover #ExtremeEnviroments #Mars #coding #Space #exploration
What a fantastic evening collaborating with the Pitlochry Cafe Scientifique where Alan Watson @UniversityLeeds discussed "Discovering the Origins of the Highest Energy Particles in Nature " which was met with a packed cafe and great interest! #ISMD2022

Mars rovers need minds of their own. So, how do their minds resemble or differ from ours? Join a particle physicist (@XinRanLiu_1) and professor of developmental neurobiology for this discussion. 🎫rse-curious.com/minds-on-mar… 📅15.00, Friday 12 August, at the @RoyalSocEd.

“For now it’s kind of a weird thing, we’re saying that we’re the best in the world at finding nothing, but the prospect of finding new physics a few years from now is entirely feasible.” - @chamkaurghag @newscientist newscientist.com/article/232…

LUX-ZEPLIN: World's most sensitive dark matter detector tested for the first time | New Scientist

A brief test has proven that the new LUX-ZEPLIN dark matter detector is the most sensitive ever. It may be our best bet for finally finding dark matter particles

After a decade of hard work, the successor to ZEPLIN and LUX called LZ (@lzdarkmatter) reigns supreme once again as the world-leading dark matter detector. It has been an honour and privilege to be a part of the process and work with some of the best people. #darkmattermatters
