⚛️ News from quantum physics: So-called Anyons are exotic particles that are neither bosons nor fermions. A team from Innsbruck, Brussels, and Paris has found a simple yet powerful way to detect anyons—by swapping two spins.

For the #PrinterSolstice2526 prompt ‘even’ -the number of quarks in a meson, a type of particle first observed & published by Bibha Chowdhuri (1913-1991) & her supervisor D.M. Bose in extensive air showers from cosmic rays. My portrait shows her, a mountain on which she gathered her data & a schematic of the cascade of particles we find in cosmic rays.

Born in Kolkata, her family’s Bramohist faith quite unusually 🧵

As described this is my linocut portrait of Bibha Chowdhuri, with a mountain range featuring Sandpakphu in front, sky with schematic of an extensive air shower behind her. She is a serious young Indian woman printed in purple ink with head and shoulders at a slight angle. The mountains are in a gradient of dark to light blue as we rise from the bottom of the page. The sky is a vivid gradient of colour like at dawn with a yellow umber through orange, pink, magenta and blue as it rises behind her and the mountains. Carved away in white is a near vertical line at the top branching repeatedly like a tree into straight, dashed and wiggly lines to indicate a particle cascade.

It is not always easy to find a good fit at an excellent research institution. If you are considering doing a #PhD or #Postdoc in #mathematics #particlephysics#theoreticalphysics or #astrophysics we have you sorted in Hamburg. This workshop is a way to get to know our Cluster of Excellence and #UniHamburg/#DESY groups on those topics, just before we start hiring this year. Check it out!
