Bee has organized two conferences on "The Experimental Search for Quantum Gravity".
She is a QG phenomenologist. It's a hard and valuable field. We need to check for observable traces of different QG models.

Bee and her husband Stefan run one of the best physics blogs.

You might want to bookmark it and check in occasionally for physics news and comment.

Right now is not a typical time for them (because of just having twin girls Lara and Gloria born in Heidelberg 29 December 2010) so the content of the blog is not at the usual intense academic level. :biggrin: But you can look at interesting discussions in the archive for the past 3 or 4 years.

When she is not giving birth to twins, Bee works in Stockholm, at NORDITA (a scandinavian theoretical physics research institute). Her most recent paper summarized the talks given at the 2010 "experimental search for QG" conference, held at NORDITA in July.

I too find the blog, http://backreaction.blogspot.com/" , interesting and useful. I've been following every post for just over a year via the RSS feed.

This is an alert about a claim regarding the standard model, that got a burst of attention in the past two weeks. The original paper came out last year: "The electroweak η_W meson" by Gia Dvali, Archil Kobakhidze, Otari Sakhelashvili (2024) The recent follow-up and other responses are "η_W-meson from topological properties of the electroweak vacuum" by Dvali et al "Hiding in Plain Sight, the electroweak η_W" by Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Francesco Sannino, Jessica Turner "Astrophysical...
