Researchers have shown how to model the behavior of a gravitational wave through the actions of just one of its countless particles, as if we could learn the precise silhouette of a tsunami after examining a single water molecule. @walkingthedot reports: quantamagazine.org/massive-b…

Great theorist Nima Arkani-Hamed will be giving a four-hour masterclass on the QFT of scattering amplitudes—from the basics to the frontiers—tomorrow, Friday 8 May, at 10.00 EST, 15.00 UK time: indico.cern.ch/event/908370/ brown.zoom.us/s/94189515546 youtube.com/channel/UCLUY5f5…
Due to COVID-19 #Amplitudes2020 will be held online via Zoom. Check all the information at the following link indico.cern.ch/event/908370/… #Amplitudes #BrownUniversity
⚠️ Physics undergrads and particle physics / accelerator enthusiasts! The #CERN Summer School isn't taking place this year (☹️), but the lectures from previous years are available for free online! (😃). The list can be found here: indico.cern.ch/category/345/ #OnlineLearning

The first gravitational waves were discovered four years ago this Saturday. Time flies! Now, dozens of discoveries later, astronomers are starting to reap the rewards of what they can teach us. My latest story, for @SciAm scientificamerican.com/artic…
