Ultra-short explanations of some particle physics terminology. Embedded in the site of a particle-physics-oriented magazine that has some quirky content. A random selection includes:
- an essay about the debut of antimatter in science fiction – back when it was purely hypothetical and the name “antimatter” wasn’t even established yet.
- using cosmic ray muon detectors to map the pyramids.
- a review of Les Horribles Cernettes (who apparently posted the very first picture on the Web) at Hadronic Music Festival.
- ultra-cheap recipes from graduate students.
