Science and that sort of thing: Acknowledgement

http://scienceandthatsortofthing.blogspot.com/2011/06/acknowledgement.html

Science and that sort of thing. Wednesday, 1 June 2011. By far the most read portion of any physics thesis (bar maybe the abstract) is the acknowledgement section. And when a colleague's thesis is finally finished, it is hard to resist the urge to skip to the acknowledgements to see how they considered your role in the last 3-4 years of their work. Although, usually given to family, friends, collaborators etc., occasionally thanks are given to less figurative bodies. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Science and that sort of thing: May 2007

http://scienceandthatsortofthing.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html

Science and that sort of thing. Friday, 25 May 2007. A good student bar is definitely something that Bristol is lacking. Tuesday, 15 May 2007. This Life in Halls. When I originally moved into halls in Bristol, I expected my flatmates to be like my friends back home - I couldn't have been more wrong. We had a homosexual rude-boy type from Essex, a black basketball-playing girl from Tottenham, a hippy type from Stratford, a rowing public school girl type from Windsor and me, the embittered northerner.

Science and that sort of thing: March 2011

http://scienceandthatsortofthing.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Science and that sort of thing. Monday, 28 March 2011. Good use of LaTeX. When I was an undergraduate, my mother asked how things were progressing academically. I handed her a lab report that had just been assessed along with demonstrator comments. Good use of LaTeX for an engaging presentation'. Is a bit of weird thing to write, even if you know about typesetting. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Matt - brother from same mother. DJ Dan's mix correction - brother from another mother.

Science and that sort of thing: Niche, vague science result of the month - Oct 2011

http://scienceandthatsortofthing.blogspot.com/2011/10/niche-vague-science-result-of-month-oct.html

Science and that sort of thing. Sunday, 2 October 2011. Niche, vague science result of the month - Oct 2011. Croatian pomegranates do not ripen on my chest of drawers given around six weeks of time under non-laboratory conditions. Pomegranate shell had hardened and dried over time making them difficult to cleave, however a suitably sharp bread knife was able to finally cut the fruit. Labels: science result pomegranates.

Science and that sort of thing. Thursday, 2 June 2011. One of my supervisors received a conference poster from Brazil. Here is a picture of the envelope it came in - what does it mean?

Science and that sort of thing: April 2011

http://scienceandthatsortofthing.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

Science and that sort of thing. Monday, 4 April 2011. I know what you did last summer. Here we have the preprint of the first major paper of the PhD,. Nesting of electron and hole Fermi surfaces in non-superconducting BaFe. N b I promise this is the real deal and not some April fools joke, despite being posted on the arxiv on the 1st.

Science and that sort of thing: August 2008

http://scienceandthatsortofthing.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Science and that sort of thing. Monday, 11 August 2008. Trying to think of as many physics based tunes as possible - came up with 5. Ideas? Thanks to Brian and Dan who came up with British Sea Power (Atom) and They Might be Giants. Hmm seems like the service does not exist any longer . Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
