After weโ€™ve agreed I get up to make coffee and he takes the notebook back and goes back to his version of equation and adds the appropriate indices and makes sure the equation looks proper. This is the most theoretical physics thing Iโ€™ve ever seen ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Iโ€™m bouncing some idea off of @wild and we had to get to pen and paper. Matthijs of course starts writing a detailed equation. I stop him and take the notebook and write literally F = D^T C^{-1} D and fishing my thought aka I explain my reasoning and we agree it makes sense

Hi! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป
level โ€œcarry fancy Japanese plum wine in a paper bag in public and look sketchyโ€ achieved

Everything you need to get started with IA is fresh on arXiv:

our cool new paper on Intrinsic Alignments (IA)
arxiv.org/abs/2309.08605

What is it: in short, it is a guide to IA

We hope you will find it useful ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿฅณ

@NikoSarcevic wrote a quick python app today. It was cool, but there was something about it I didn't like but couldn't immediately put my finger on what it was. TFW I missed three bus stops trying to pinpoint my problem with it

Environmental sustainability in basic research: a perspective from HECAP+

The climate crisis and the degradation of the world's ecosystems require humanity to take immediate action. The international scientific community has a responsibility to limit the negative environmental impacts of basic research. The HECAP+ communities (High Energy Physics, Cosmology, Astroparticle Physics, and Hadron and Nuclear Physics) make use of common and similar experimental infrastructure, such as accelerators and observatories, and rely similarly on the processing of big data. Our communities therefore face similar challenges to improving the sustainability of our research. This document aims to reflect on the environmental impacts of our work practices and research infrastructure, to highlight best practice, to make recommendations for positive changes, and to identify the opportunities and challenges that such changes present for wider aspects of social responsibility.
