Both spacecraft have been flying in formation around the moon since Jan. 1, 2012. They were named by elementary school students in Bozeman, Mont., who won a contest. The first probe to reach the moon, Ebb, also…

The primary goal of this 3‐day workshop is to educate the LHC community about the scientific utility of likelihoods. We shall do so by describing and discussing several real‐world examples of the use of likelihoods, including a one‐day in‐depth examination of likelihoods in the Higgs boson studies by ATLAS and CMS. The workshop will start…

Embedded video from NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory California Institute of Technology This movie shows the variations in the lunar gravity field as measured by NASA’s Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) during the primary mapping mission from March to May 2012.

Spintronics (a neologism for “spin-based electronics”), also known as magnetoelectronics, is an emerging technology which exploits the quantum spin states of electrons as well as making use of their charge state. The electron spin itself is manifested as a two state magnetic energy system. The discovery of giant magnetoresistance in 1988 by Albert Fert et…

The Atomic Structure of Molecules by Matt Strassler December 7, 2012….also precursor to this article also by Matt Strassler, The Molecular Structure of Matter, May 28, 2012 Photo by Graham Challifour. Reproduced from Critchlow, 1979, p. 132. With the discovery of sound waves in the CMB, we have entered a new era of precision cosmology…
