Please witness the most embarrassing moment of my professional life (thus far) - forgetting to plug in a temperature probe in a live demo! youtube.com/watch?v=EWqS6t…

Physics Photo Of the Day: Physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer Discussing Theory of Matter with Albert Einstein at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, 1947. (by Alfred Eisenstaedt)

Physics Photo Of the Day: Dr. Willem de Sitter and Albert Einstein discussing equations that provide the best available language for describing the universe seen as a whole, on a CalTech blackboard, Pasadena, c. 1932.

The Australian physics community is saddened by the recent death of Prof Les Kirkup (@utsengage) 2020 AIP Fellow & 2014 awardee of the AIP Physics Education medal. His contribution to physics education in Australia was outstanding and he will be sorely missed. Vale Les.

Looking for a job in physics in Oz? I do a list of physics jobs for the @ausphysics newsletter each month. The list is on our site. Its free but I am not sure anyone reads them. So I think I'll tweet them too.. here is a thread of a few jobs for Nov. 👇 aip.org.au/Jobs

Congrats to our own physoc alum Adam Micolich!

“Our research shows these ‘roaming reactions' exhibit unusual and unexpected features.” Published in #Science, a @UNSW-led team show in unprecedented detail something which could make atmospheric modelling far more accurate. @ScienceMagazine @kable_scott newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/science-t…

Hi everyone, with the new term only a few weeks away, this year Physoc has decided to implement a peer mentoring program. If you're an undergraduate or postgraduate physics student interested in being a mentor, please fill out the following form: forms.gle/x2Ltdu7zino4bo…

Glad to see strong representation from the physics undergraduate community :)
