Want to know more about what particle physics is like, told by others other than only me? Our group's Instagram account gives a voice to a very wide group of scientists
For example, we have measured if there is anything inside quarks. And Andreas Hinzmann, one of the authors, made this nice post about that result https://www.instagram.com/p/DW6hU-PjnJK/?igsh=OGM3dmFnZ2Q0eGV2 #scicomm #wisskomm #quarks #elementaryparticles

Particle physics by CMS experiment at DESY on Instagram: "In our current understanding of nature, visible matter is made of quarks. Quarks are considered to be point-like particles bound together with the strong nuclear force, one of four fundamental forces in the standard model of particle physics. However, one may wonder: Are quarks really the smallest building blocks of nature?
Scientists from CMS - DESY try to answer this question ✨

Salon | The useful rage of Godzilla - Star Trek Website
cross-posted from: https://startrek.website/post/37765690
[https://startrek.website/post/37765690] > This Salon feature from two weeks
back provides a good overview of the 70+ year Godzilla franchise and its
relevance to current audiences. There’s an analysis of where Monarch: Legacy of
Monsters fits in the franchise’s themes. > > >Our relationship with Godzilla
changes from movie to movie and age to age. Some films cast the King of the
Monsters as a protector unconsciously joining humanity – and occasionally, King
Kong – to fend off some mammoth existential evil. More often, he is a reckoning,
reminding us of how puny we are in nature’s schemes… > > >…each springs from the
same mutated DNA, mapping the source of Earth’s monster problems to mindless
warfare, along with the intellectual vanity compelling man to seek an upper hand
over nature instead of figuring out how to coexist. > > >Godzilla and the other
Titans stampeding in his wake are post-World War II creations; Ishirō Honda, who
directed the OG “Godzilla,” was a veteran of that war marked by his travel
through the ruins of Hiroshima after the United States bombed its civilians and
Nagasaki to force Japan’s surrender. The Geneva Conventions’ protocols made such
acts illegal, but as we’re discovering with alarming frequency and force these
days, laws are only as effective as our willingness to abide by them…
