Argon, the first noble gas in the periodic table to be isolated, was named after the Greek word for lazy after it was found to be totally unreactive. Lord Rayleigh and William Ramsay earned the 1904 Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry, respectively, for the discovery.

In a rush of academia, don't forget to enjoy life, family, good food, outdoor activities, traveling, etc. If you are thinking to do it all after you finish a/an experiment, paper, school, Ph.D., Postdoc, etc., so remember this is just one life, & sadly time is not coming back!

And that's a wrap on DUNE collaboration week. So much progress, new people, and new institutions. Can't wait to see where we go from here. See you in Manchester! #dunescience #collaborationweek

From the neutrino group, Melissa Uchida gave a plenary talk on the latest @Microboone results, and there were talks by @AXFMR, @_karoLEEna_ and @ste_vergani555 and posters by Jingyuan Shi and @JDetje . x.com/Microboone/sta…

Rounding off our MicroBooNE presentations at #IoPHEPPAPP2022: Alex Moor @CambridgeHEP talking about measuring the ratio of electron and muon neutrino interactions in our detector

"It would change our current understanding of the Universe." A team of scientists who have been searching for a vital building block of the Universe, a "sterile Neutrino", have failed to find it. Physicist Melissa Uchida tells #Newsnight why this is so important 👇

Forget spice — whoever controls the neutrinos, controls the universe! ⚛️ 🌌 OK, not exactly... but they *could* unlock the secrets of how it was formed. Listen to our podcast episode about @DUNEScience, one of the biggest science experiments on earth! energy.gov/podcasts/direc…

Academic Last Supper at the #HEP @STFC_Matters Summer School @LindaCremonesi

Awesome meme deserves a double tweet! @AXFMR I may steal this one in the future! 😅

On to neutrinos with @AXFMR from @CambridgeHEP showing us the wonders of @Microboone and @DUNEScience! 👻 (<-- the official neutrino emoji)
