It's all in the name of science. Really. o:)
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Keep 'em coming! Working in a place like those posted was, and still is, my very childhood dream. :smile:

:smile: Yes, I used to use that line on Tsu all the time.
 
I would post a pic of my lab but I am a theoretician semi... so would a pencil and paper do

As long as the pencil is some kind of high power laser and the paper is some human being :biggrin:
Think you can manage that?:-p

Half a brain?

Well you know, they're very, very left brained.

Your entire lab is a corner?

Actually it's just the bottom half of the corner. I share that corner with another grad student - he has the top half, where he runs some kind of anti-gravity experiments.

:smile: Okay, you got me.

Has the anti-gravity caused any problems, or is it well collimated?
 
Heres my lab as promised!

Great tag line. I hope Isackson's 'Einstein' on the desk there was inclination. I certainly enjoyed it.

My wife and I both read it, and we both enjoyed it.

Impressive collection. You are a considerably more advanced theoretician than NoobixCube... NoobixCube are you sure your not a primary school teacher? :-p

Here are some more pics. A friend is a good photographer and has an awesome camera so without revealing too much of our labs (a requirement) guess what these represent:

That's part of a laser system. We have a similar Ti-Sapphire laser from Spectra Physics with 2 YAG lasers going through a TSA.

Good job ZapperZ!

OK, so now it's my turn. Identify the copper thingy with the tubes sticking out of it. :)

HTS. Entire rig some kind of particle collider.

That looks bloody awesome.
Yeah, my guess too is something to do with a particle accelerator/collider... The copper tubing is being cooled by whatever is flowing through those hoses...? I'm really curious as to what the whole setup is/does.
 
After googling for "particle colliders" I'm taking a guess the rings are "Damping Rings" or an "RF Cavity"?
