How can a Bohr atom picture be so wrong and so nice to draw at the same time 😬

It doesn't take an expert to say that something is wrong with this CF flange covered with aluminum foil :/

Ok, I understand this is a bad for experiments (multiple unexplained loose connection, freezing computers etc) but how dare the saboteurs touching our coffee machine?? Don't you have any dignity?

Very interesting #science news - the first SI prefixes since 1991 were announced today at the General Conference on Weights and Measures.
➡️ quetta = \( 10^{30}\), Q
➡️ ronna = \( 10^{27}\), R
➡️ ronto = \( 10^{-27}\), r
➡️ quecto = \( 10^{-30}\), q

For example the mass of an electron is just under one quectogram (1qg).

#atomicclocks are an underlying piece of #quantumtechnology that many take for granted. In the latest #article with @InQuantumTech@twitter.com, I talk to experts from @ColdQuanta@twitter.com and @NPL@twitter.com to discuss the importance of these devices.

Do you want to be part of extremely hardcore sensing 2.0 with long hours and high intensity?

Hopefully you enjoy our one to nine rubidium-87 Bose-Einstein condensates generated using painted optical potentials as much as we do! 🤩


Wow. Thanks to galactica.org and the suggestion by @physicssteve, I guess that teaching got a lot easier for the second half of this winter term 🤩🤣
