This video by Steve Mould on collapsing cavitation bubbles is a really neat piece of science communication.

Especially because apparently, the mechanism behind how you can make light by quickly compressing water is called Bremsstrahlung and I live right next to* the @DESY research centre (and particle accelerator) that studies a type of this radiation (synchrotron radiation). And its always fun to hear a German technical term pronounced by a Brit.

Speed of light? Particle Collisions? Neutron stars? Sounds like science fiction?

Not for the 34 interns who are visiting our GSI/FAIR campus for two weeks 👩‍🎓 👨‍🎓

They have the chance to experience hands-on science in our departments: experiment electronics, IT, materials science, the detector lab and many more!

Have fun!

Gigantic LHC successor: Private individuals pledge money for the particle accelerator.

CERN is soon to decide on the construction of a gigantic successor to the LHC, the Future Circular Collider (FCC).

Several billionaires have now pledged money for it.

🎂⏲How did GSI/FAIR become what it is today? Travel with us through time, from the foundation of our research center all the way to our new FAIR mega project.

Happy Birthday GSI/FAIR🥳 Here is to many more years of groundbreaking research and international collaboration!

For the first time, researchers, including Laura Fabietti, of the ALICE experiment at #CERN’s #particleaccelerator, directly observed how light atomic #nuclei and their antiparticles – so-called #deuterons and #antideuterons – are formed in extremely high-energy #particlecollisions: http://go.tum.de/450524
