Sat under a tree today while listening to a talk on dark matter detectors at Nikhef
It may not look like much, but a few months from now this could be a thriving vegetable garden
More beautiful Nikhef technology! You are looking at a segment of the molecule decelerator for the eEDM experiment in Groningen, used to study the electric dipole moment of electrons.
One of the things the Einstein Telescope Organisation (ETO) is currently wrapped up in: coordinating the work on a site-independent report that compares the geometries for the #EinsteinTelescope from multiple perspectives (scientific added value, costs, risk, governance and socio-economic impact).

Towards a report on the comparison of geometries for the Einstein Telescope - Einstein Telescope

Will the Einstein Telescope have the shape of a triangle or two L’s? Work on a report outlining pros and cons of both options has commenced.

Sometimes my job takes me to exotic places like Elba or Geneva/CERN. Last week I attended a meeting much closer to home. Read more about the new collaboration on cost estimation between the Einstein Telescope Organisation (ETO) and ESA in this interview (initiated and written by yours truly) https://einsteintelescope.eu/news/esa-and-eto-partner-on-cost-estimation-methodologies/ #einsteintelescope #ESA
Looking at Timepix chip technology, used for detecting particles. Developed @cern.bsky.social and @nikhef.bsky.social
Sprouting apple branches announcing spring...at least indoors.
Mirror eyes...or a module for a giant neutrino detector at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea
Sometimes train problems turn into a treat! And I am not just talking about the coffee and croissant. Finally I had the space and time to calmly read through a report I had been carrying around with me for some time. #einsteintelescope #einsteintelescopeorganisation

The NES Col-Lab Retreat brings together researchers, data stewards, software engineers and support staff with an affinity for the Natural and Engineering Sciences.

During these three days in the beautiful Dutch dunes, we will gather to identify shared challenges and co-create practical, cross-institutional solutions for data and software in a FAIR manner.
