I’ve been hearing no interesting news from the LHC recently, about all I’ve learned is that CMS\/ATLAS haven’t even decided whether it’s worth combining their latest public data (probably not, what is much more interesting is the large amount of data they are now analyzing separately). So my plan for next week is to travel to Antwerp, where I’ll try and get Tommaso Dorigo drunk and see what I can find out. We’ll both be at TEDx, he’s got more of the story here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Adrian Cho has a wonderful long piece in Science<\/a> (and podcast here<\/a>) about the sociology of the two big experiments at the LHC. It gives some insight into the process by which a Higgs result is likely to emerge, including the steps being taken to make sure that some group doesn’t “parachute in” at the last moment to try and capture glory. I’m still trying to figure out who gets a Nobel prize if the Higgs is found.<\/p>\n

For some other reading material, there’s John Ellis’s 65th birthday colloquium<\/a>, an interview with Bianca Dittrich<\/a>, and yet more evidence<\/a> that MathOverflow rules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
