Caroline was a dissident physicist and we shared some views, but not all. She published articles explaining why the many articles on EPR paradox, Aspect experiment etc were confused. She died a couple of years ago. I was glad that I had the chance to visit her in Walse.
Kip Thorne is a theoretical physicist whose work reshaped our understanding of spacetime, black holes, and the fabric of the universe. A longtime professor at Caltech, he co-founded LIGO and helped lead the effort that first detected gravitational waves, confirming a century-old prediction of Einstein and opening an entirely new way of observing the cosmos. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 and has spent a career asking how the universe actually behaves at its most extreme limits, from warped spacetime to colliding black holes.

French physicist and inventor Augustin Fresnel perfected his new lighthouse lens in the early 1800s. By the 1850s, a lens of this size was shining from the top of the first st. Augustine lighthouse. Each angle and curve is precisely measured to magnify the light out to the horizon. The keepers polished the lens through the night, which kept the light shining as brightly as possible.
Physicist Heinrich Hertz stayed in this building across Quantistrasse from the Hauptbahnhof. That's Hertz as in "frequency", not as in "rental cars".

A $7.5 million grant from DOE’s Accelerate initiative, which hopes to literally “accelerate” the translation of new technologies into industrial applications. The goal is to further develop a compact, high-power, and energy-efficient SRF accelerator that could one day be used in water treatment plants or other industrial settings, such as chemical processing plants.

Döbler alley, 1907 named after the magician Ludwig Döbler (1801-1864); by background physicist, he began in 1839 a career as a magician in the theater in the Josefstadt. In the following years he was one of the most dinguished magicians of his time and mixed in the elevated circles of the nomenclatura. Döbler was also scientist and inventor. With the help of a magic lantern-like apparatus, a so-called Phantaskop (gibz-blog.ch/daswunderrad/#.U8EL2pR_vE0), he produced moving images and is today considered one of the early pioneers of the motion picture. The alley was called until 1882 Spindler alley (after the abbot of Schottenstift Anton Spindler of Hofegg, 1570-1648), and then from 1882 to 1907 Schrankgasse (see there). 1907, the names of the two alleys were exchanged.
Döblergasse, 1907 benannt nach dem Zauberkünstler Ludwig Döbler (1801–1864); der gelernte Physiker begann 1839 eine Karriere als Zauberkünstler im Theater in der Josefstadt. In den folgenden Jahren war er einer der vornehmsten Zauberkünstler seiner Zeit und verkehrte in den höchsten Kreisen. Döbler war auch Wissenschaftler und Erfinder. Mit Hilfe einem der Laterna magica ähnlichen Apparat, einem so genannten Phantaskop, erzeugte er bewegte Bilder und gilt heute als einer der frühen Pioniere des Kinofilms. Die Gasse hieß bis 1882 Spindlergasse (nach dem Abt des Schottenstifts Anton Spindler von Hofegg, 1570–1648) und dann 1882–1907 Schrankgasse (siehe dort). 1907 wurden die Namen der beiden Gassen getauscht.

In the history of mankind, extremely rare and great people have influenced and changed the world for hundreds of thousands of years or even millions of years, far beyond the scope of world history. He repeatedly said: Everything comes from the great wisdom and brilliant creation of all mankind all over the world. He himself is at best an ordinary craftsman and an ordinary farmer. Anyone in front of the great natural universe is a tiny particle.
Advocating science, natural universe, new structural rationalism, advocating freedom, democracy, equality, fraternity, peace and prosperity, and indispensable superiority and influence in the history of mankind and the history of natural universe. Can be a world leader, a human mentor.

On the back of the card is written:
"Wid love to Unkie Will,

months old - me is a

John Mauchly
So what else happened on Friday the 30th. August 1907?
Well, in the United States, John Mauchly was born in Cincinnati Ohio. He was a physicist who, along with J. Presper Eckert, designed the first general-purpose electronic digital computer in 1945.
It was called the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer, or ENIAC for short.
His work brought about an explosion in computer development from the late 40's onwards all over the world.
Dr. Mauchly died on Tuesday the 8th. January 1980, having lived for 72 years, 4 months and 9 days.
Steve Lidia, the senior physicist and adjunct professor of physics and electrical and computer engineering at Michigan State University, gives students in the Harper Academy 4 Future Nuclear Engineers program a tour of the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University in Lansing, on Friday, July 12, 2024. They are seen here walking past the shielding that surrounds the ReA6 experimental vault. This area houses the SOLARIS beamline and solenoidal spectrometer for study of a broad range of direct nuclear reactions at energies around the Coulomb barrier.
The trip to the FRIB afforded the students the opportunity to see and experience a Department of Energy national research laboratory in action. Students were given an overview followed by a tour with Steve Lidia, the senior physicist and adjunct professor of physics and electrical and computer engineering.
The FRIB accelerates heavy-ion beams at beam power up to 400 kilowatts into a target to create rare isotopes for scientific research. The most important of these last for only microseconds. High-power, heavy-ion beam facilities like the FRIB are needed to enable fundamental nuclear science discoveries. The FRIB enables scientists to study properties of rare isotopes, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental interactions, and applications for society, including in medicine, homeland security, and industry.

8 dimensional E8 Polytope, done Wizard Gynoid in collaboration with Theoretical Physicist Dr. Garrett Lisi (author of the Theory of Everything). The predictions of Lisi's theory will be tested at the LHC. Dr. Lisi demonstrates his new Unified Theory using a projection of the E8 that displays all 240 vertices. You can watch a video of this at the Ted Conference here: -- www.ted.com/index.php/talks/garrett_lisi_on_his_theory_of... He calls this rotation the "Concentric Circles" due to the fact that all 240 vertices are visible, without any overlaps, and the vertices seem to form a series of nested concentric circles, analagous to the 2D version one commonly sees illustrating the E8, e.g. here --> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E8_polytope
As a result, Dr. Lisi and i went to some trouble to build this second rotation of the E8. This one is about twice as complex as the first version. It has almost twice as many vertices and twice as many edges.

Students are seen here in the front end truck bay. The Front End is where the FRIB's heavy-ion beam begins. That room cannot be photographed for safety and security reasons. In it the Electron cyclontron resonance (ERC) ion sources remove electrons from atomic nuclei. In the ion sources, neutral atoms are vaporized into a hot plasma, which knocks electrons off the atoms and makes them into positively-charged ions. Once ions of appropriate charge are produced, they can be pushed with electric and magnetic fields. The ions are then extracted into the FRIB linear accelerator.
