Gonna pull an Ernest Rutherford & squeeze chemistry into #funphysicsfriday. ๐Anyone else think the periodic table is actually really cool? (*Raising hand like Hermione Granger in potions) Then this xkcd is for you! SO on point, I can't even pick a fave section - can you?
It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's a ... bolide?! #funphysicsfriday (Because if your question can't be solved with a flowchart - or a spreadsheet - it can't be answered. ๐)
#funphysicsfriday! PSA for a special celestial event early Mon, 6/3. I love spotting planets! Do you? 6/3: look for Mercury & Jupiter close & bright above the E horizon. Mars & Saturn will be visible farther up the "planetary path," but Uranus & Neptune will require good binocs!
#funphysicsfriday! I shared this in my monthly newsletter (not a subscriber yet? You get a bonus prequel to Scattered if you do! Sign-up link is in the comments) yesterday. It's classic! One word: entropy. ๐ It reminds me of how I think of science fiction versus fantasy fiction.
It's #funphysicsfriday, and I have to share this humbling review: SCATTERED has "neat physics Easter eggs"! ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐ฉท Glad you enjoyed them, McN! One common theme in reviews is that my story made physics approachable. Yesss! (Except the few that said they skimmed those parts!)
#funphysicsfriday! I ๐คฃ over this, which is true for a lot of technical jobs (except physics, I would wager). As a mech'l engineer undergrad, I took 9 really hard math classes - but have no idea now how to solve ๐ AdCal problems! But Excel spreadsheets? I am the MASTER. You?
#funphysicsfriday! On July 30, 2 meteor showers will peak that night! Btwn full dark & midnight (before moonrise) see: โ๏ธ Delta Aquariids โ๏ธ Alpha Capricornids โ๏ธ Bonus: Perseids (peak 11-12Aug but visible now) โญ๏ธLook everywhere in the sky for these blazing comet crumbs!
#Funphysicsfriday! This summer a #nova explosion will occur w/in the Corona Borealis region! A white dwarf eating hydrogen from a nearby red giant will --> a thermonuclear explosion! It won't be a supernova, but the binary system will glow brightly for <1wk. No telescopes needed!
#funphysicsfriday! Anyone see the Tues meteors? I looked out, but it was cloudy by 10pm; didn't see a single โ๏ธ. ๐ข How about a laugh today? Why let the physicists at CERN have all the fun?! Me: "Look, boys, it's a kookymilliscmoom! We finally saw it!" Your best name?
#funphysicsfriday! In honor of July 4th and the ubiquitous fireworks we enjoy, here's the science behind it! I knew from being an ammunition engineer how the colors are mixed, but the ways charcoal and black powder is used to propel and blast are interesting. #fireworks #physics
#funphysicsfriday! I'm celebrating by sharing this vid of me reading chapter 1 of ๐๐ค๐ข๐ต๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ! (Chap 2 & 3 in separate vids!) Elie Rutherford listens in on her father's Sunday physics discussions w his researchers; she wants to be part of it! youtu.be/xyt1mqm4O2M

#funphysicsfriday! Per Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, you can't accurately measure a particle's velocity and position at the same time (momentum=velocity*mass). But will we soon? This "squeezer" tech might help us detect axions (in dark matter)! phys.org/news/2024-05-wโฆ
#funphysicsfriday! Thanks to Hubble, astronomers noticed a clear trend: a jet of plasma from a supermassive black hole at the core of the huge M87 galaxy seems to cause nearby stars to erupt along its trajectory. 2x the rate as the rest of the galaxy! Sciencedaily.com
#funphysicsfriday ... space x body edition! I ๐ฉท how Riddle's WINTER WORLD (it's tragic if too long) and Corey's LEVIATHAN WAKES (the body adapts) treat living in space on the human body. But look what really happens to our chromosomes' telomeres! More: bit.ly/3WmHdm5

#funphysicsfriday! HBD to Sir Ernest Rutherford (b.1871)! His research birthed nuclear physics - a big claim, but it's true (I was effusive about his accomplishments in this pod: listenvypod.com/66). He wasn't the star of SCATTERED, but his lab accident was a catalyst...
