Did you know about the Attosecond laser project? It won the Nobel prize for physics in 2023. N.B. There are more attoseconds in a second, than there have been seconds in the life of the Universe (13.8Bn years). Using the 4 attosecond laser, it is now possible to "photograph" the electron spinning around the nucleus.

This year's Nobel Prize in Physics rewards research into electrons in "flashes of light".

Ok this is pretty cool! @jb55 shared an apple podcasts link - I missed it in my main nostr feed - but saw it in Fountain and because of open podcasting even though it was an apple podcast link Fountain can find the episode, show me the playable content card, and let me queue it up and download it! image View quoted note →

apparently they found a new connection between string theory and quantum field theory, under certain open superstring condition (beta = 1) and might lead to new ways of understanding the quantum theories because it goes back to the first particles (tho my understanding of string theory is mainly based on sheldon cooper and the big bang theory sitcom!)
