“Besides his outstanding contributions to particle physics, Peter was a very special person, an immensely inspiring figure for physicists across the world, a man of rare modesty, a great teacher and someone who explained physics in a very simple and yet profound way. (1/2)

Solar panels destroyed by hail storm in Nebraska.
Counting on the sun & wind to power modern society is equivalent to praying to the weather gods.

Apart from the considerable and unique contribution that it makes to science and innovation, CERN's presence on Swiss soil also brings tangible economic benefits, states the Federal Council of Switzerland:

Neutrino oscillations show that lepton flavour violation exists.
Searching for such potential beyond-the-Standard Model behaviour in Higgs-boson decays, the @ATLASexperiment has set new upper limits on the branching fractions of H → eτ and H → μτ

A book that only few have read in detail, but still, it changed the world. A truly groundbreaking achievement.
Some of the easier stuff is being tought in all grammar schools. It's a marvel and its value cannot be underestimated.

How do you calculate the "curiosity windfall"?
