The way to get people to know you, attach your name to your face, and realize you are knowledgeable is, maybe suprisingly, to ask questions at meetings, as often as possible. You do not understand…

The Large Hadron Collider is delivering as expected a large amount of integrated luminosity of proton-proton collisions to CMS and ATLAS, running at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The total…

Dark matter, up to 25 percent of the universe, hasn't actually been found. It is a hypothesis, though not an unreasonable one, given that something must create a gravitational force. But science has…

In 2008, “The missing memristor found” [1] was published in the respected science journal Nature, and this claimed discovery was announced on the front pages of most major newspapers. This “discovery…

When CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, near Geneva, Switzerland, announced the discovery of the elusive Higgs boson on July 4th this year--the result of years of running of the…

Collisions between heavy ions at machines like the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and more recently the LHC, may help enlighten our understanding of the hot…

I am very happy to have been invited, by Matteo Polettini, to two events that will take place at Festivaletteratura (literature festival), an important cultural event that takes place in Mantova, a…

Don't be surprised when you spot four Ferraris at 1 Einstein Drive, Princeton. Four brand new racing machines nicely parked next to each other and next to the entrance of the Institute for…

Don't be surprized when you spot four Ferraris at 1 Einstein Drive in Princeton. Nicely parked next to each other next to the entrance of the Institute for Advanced Study.  Fresh director…

ATLAS has just released a note which summarizes the searches for the standard model Higgs boson in 7-TeV and 8-TeV data. Since July 4th the main improvement is the addition of the WW channel, which…
