I remember the day well. Caught the midnight screening, and then went back to the cinema 10 hours later to catch a screening at 10.00 in the morning. Saw it twice in 14 hours or so. A healthy appreciation of superhero content.😉

“Phonon lasers” shoot particles of sound instead of light. Now researchers have made the most powerful one yet, using a reflective cavity, a tiny bead and an electrode. #Echobox=1711334828" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">newscientist.com/article/242171…

What happens when a scientist and a historian both with a flare for the superhero genre meet? They write a book together! Check out this great article by Martina Silbrnikova at @TUeCursor_news about my latest book "Superheroes" written with Etienne Augé. cursor.tue.nl/en/background/…
