New achievement unlocked: I'm a regime! (Full credit to Daniel Price and Callum Fairbairn and his excellent work on eccentric planets)
Can penguins fly? How do aeroplanes work? Does hand washing actually get rid of germs? How do natural water filters work? I was the guest judge for a primary school science competition so now I know! The best school event I've ever participated in, thankyou Whitnash Primary!
Pleased to showcase the impressive results from our most dedicated coder yet for Coding with Sophie!
Fantastic programmers doing Coding with Sophie at the Resonate Festival today, Warwick Uni #codingwithsophie
Coding with Sophie is back again with some new experiments* after the holiday break. Get in touch with us if you'd like us at your school! *Liquid Nitrogen and superconducting magnets not guaranteed at every class.
Guys if you haven't seen this already CHECK IT OUT. We found that when you take into account that planet forming discs can be curved/warped the dust naturally collects into rings. This has huge implications as @astrohoss.bsky.social brilliantly explains 👇🏻
It's paper day!🔭🧪 Together with @becastro.bsky.social and @jfg-astro.bsky.social , we've obtained what's easily the coolest result in my career so far Let me introduce you to WInDI, a new dust instability in warped discs arxiv.org/abs/2311.06182 1/n
We identify a new dust instability that occurs in warped discs. The instability is caused by the oscillatory gas motions induced by the warp in the bending wave regime. We first demonstrate the...
Honestly a labour of love and nervousness all rolled into one 😅
