We wander story-laden streets, peek down literary alleys, poke our heads into sing-song pubs. We navigate inconvenient sympathies. We recognize a tune. To signal traffic in the narrative chaos, we trust the time-honored cues of the theater. We discuss a movie about a real place that doesn't exist.

The Field Guide to Particle Physics https://pasayten.org/the-field-guide-to-particle-physics©2021 The Pasayten Institute cc by-sa-4.0 The definitive resource for all data in particle physics is the Particle Data Group: https://pdg.lbl.gov/The Pasayten Institute is on a mission to build and share physics knowledge, without barriers! Get in touch.The Electron CloudWe are made up of molecules, and molecules are made up of atoms joined together by their electrons - or sometimes, by their lack thereof.Atoms are modeled by a nucleus surrounded by an electron cloud. We've discussed the nucleus earlier; it's the hard center of the atom. It's really, really small, as small as a speck of dust in the middle of a baseball stadium. Despite that fact, the nucleus makes up over 99% of the atom's mass. Electrons are quite light by comparison.The nucleus is small because the nucleons - those protons and neutrons - are bound so tightly together. The electron, by comparison, is barely hanging on. That's why their orbits are so wide.Because electrons are small and light, they are subject to the physics of quantum mechanics. This is a deep and important fact, but for practical purposes it means that the details of their motion around the nucleus are obscured. We can't say with 100% certainty where the electron is, or how it is moving. And this obscurity is central to how atoms work.In traditional models from classical physics, forces like electromagnetism causes charged particles to orbit each other, just like planets orbiting the sun. The size and shape of those orbits are related how much energy those plants have. And unlike planets, electrons are known to lose energy very, very quickly.If electrons were really orbiting in circles or ellipses, the centrifugal force associated to that rotational motion would cause the electrons to lose a tremendous amount of energy. This would eventually collapse the atom, sending the electrons crashing into the nucleus. This paradox occupied was a big concern around the turn of the 20th century.To understand why electrons don't crash into the nucleus, it helps to consider a related mystery. Consider the simple case of the hydrogen atom: a single electron orbiting a single proton. The electron has no orbital angular momentum. How can an electron stay in orbit with a proton without any angular momentum?Quantum mechanics provides a curious - if unsatisfying - resolution to this mystery. It obscures the true position of the electron. The electron is smeared out as a spherical shell around the nucleus. The electron isn't really orbiting. It's just smeared out, hanging in a particular region, which happens to surround the proton. Perhaps this explains the name, electron cloud.It's important to understand that this obscurity isn't just a failure of imagination or a failure of technology. You can prove it mathematically, and verify that proof experimentally. It's not that we don't know the details of the electron's position and momentum, it's as if those details simply don't exist. They aren't real. Weird as it is, it's a literal fact of the universe that keeps the electrons bound to the proton.There's one other oddity that quantum mechanics bestows to the electron that's important to the physics of atoms. It's so important it has a name. It's called the Exclusion Principle and it says that no two electrons can share the same configuration at the same time. That's another deep statement with a lot of technical details, but its practical implications give rise to virtually all of chemistry.The exclusion principle means that each atom essentially has “slots” for individual electrons to fill. Typically, they fill in from lowest to highest energy. The more protons the nucleus has, the more slots for electrons the atom has to fill. Perhaps you learned about these slots in a chemistry class.Higher energy slots have slightly different shapes. Some have angular momentum. Some do not. It is these complicated shapes that allow electrons form bonds between atoms. But this is as this particle physics series, chemical bonds must be another story, for another time.

The parasitic roundworm Strongyloides stercoralis crawls through contaminated soil in search of one thing – human flesh. Often no more than a millimeter in size, it’s currently estimated to be hanging out in the intestines of over 300 million people worldwide. How it finds us has a lot to do with the chemicals we’re giving off.

When you find yourself in a universe (or franchise) that's constantly expanding, filled with horrifying zombie aliens, a religious war, and ancient alien technology (and even more ancient-er aliens)... it's time to sit back, read a million books, and learn about the lore, universe, and fandom of Halo! ...And we couldn't be in better hands as Krysta of [Halo: Podcast Evolved](https://www.halopodcastevolved.com/) guides us through the vast lore that is in store! ## Episode Outline ### Fandom Facts **History and Origins:** > Halo is a military science fiction first-person shooter video game franchise created by Bungie and now managed and developed by 343 Industries, a subsidiary of Microsoft Studios. The series centers on an interstellar war between humanity and an alliance of aliens known as the Covenant. The Covenant, led by their religious leaders called the Prophets, worship an ancient civilization known as the Forerunners, who perished in combat with the parasitic Flood. The central focus of the franchise builds off the experiences of Master Chief John-117, one of a group of supersoldiers codenamed Spartans, and his artificial intelligence (AI) companion, Cortana. Other characters, such as Noble Six from Halo: Reach, are also introduced in the series. The term "Halo" refers to the Halo Array: a group of immense, habitable, ring-shaped superweapons that were created by the Forerunners to destroy the Flood. They are similar to the Orbitals in Iain M. Banks' Culture novels, and to a lesser degree to author Larry Niven's Ringworld concept. > > — [Wikipedia - Halo (franchise)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_(franchise)) The game franchise has been running since 2001, and in that time over 65 million copies of the 13 games have been sold, grossing almost $3.4 billion (not counting the books, comics, live action films and miniseries, and anime). **Search Data:** By search data, [interest in the Halo franchise has been on a slow decline](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=%2Fm%2F04h6hv,%2Fm%2F0128442n,%2Fm%2F026wy8d). Comparing to other first-person shooters, it's possible that this is in part due to more competition. Interest in the game mostly spikes around the release of new games. The top countries for Halo, by search volume, are as follows: Mexico, Columbia, United States, Australia, Canada, Guatemala, New Zealand, Panama, Puerto Rico, United Kingdom. **Fan Demographics:** This week, we have an assortment of data from different sources. The most comprehensive we found was this survey from [r/halo](https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/1wwgas/halo_a_demographic_survey/) with over 1300 results: - _Gender_: Mostly male (96.2%; female 3.8%) - _Age_: Mostly 18-24 (61.8%); 15-17 (22%); 25-34 (14%) - _Employment_: Mostly students (51%); Employed full-time (22.1%); Employed part-time (13.7%) - _Ethnicity_: Mostly white / caucasian (79%); Spanish / Hispanic / Latino (6.7%); Asian (4.6%) - _Marital Status_: Mostly single, never married (86.7%); Living with partner (6.2%); Married (5.2%) Regarding age data, there is this thread from the [Halo Waypoint forums](https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/90a6869bcf944c54a17102ac9e31da1a/topics/average-age-of-halo-players/395d83dd-0491-4ea4-867c-ae4966e637d0/posts) (number of participants is not stated): - 1% - Child (5-8) - 3% - Young Teen (9-13) - 41% - Teenager (14-19) - 41% - Young Adult (20-29) - 13% - Adult (30-64) - 1% - Senior (65+) And a different source, [T3CHNOCIDE's Demographic Survey Results](http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:T3CHNOCIDE/Demographic_Survey_Results) (over 250 respondents), which seems to corroborate age and gender data: - _Age_: Mostly 14-17 (50%); 18-21 (25%); 22-30 (12.5%) - _Gender_: Mostly male (90%); other / no answer (7.5%); female (2.5%) **Fanac Fast Facts:** - Archive Of Our Own has [over 600 works related to Halo](https://archiveofourown.org/tags/Halo%20(Vide

As the first case ever studied with high - resolution spectroscopy for odd-N nuclei in the second potential minimum, the fission isomers in 237Pu (t1/2 = 110ns/1.1 μs) were investigated using the 235U(alpha,2n) reaction with a pulsed alpha beam (Ealpha =24 MeV, Deltat=400 ns) from the Cologne Tandem accelerator. A metallic 235U target (3.7 mg/cm2)was used, where the 237Pu reaction products were stopped and fission products were emitted in opposite directions. The rare gamma-rays from the second potential well in delayed coincidence with fission products were measured with the MINIBALL spectrometer. The identified level scheme will be presented and compared to single - particle calculations allowing for the first time an identification of the Nilsson quantum numbers. The identification of Nilsson orbitals will provide an important input for the validation and improvement of theoretical nuclear models and will lead to improved predictions for fission barriers and their extrapolations to neutron-rich heavy elements in the mass region of the r-process path of the astrophysical nucleosynthesis.

When you find yourself in a universe (or franchise) that's constantly expanding, filled with horrifying zombie aliens, a religious war, and ancient alien technology (and even more ancient-er aliens)... it's time to sit back, read a million books, and learn about the lore, universe, and fandom of Halo! ...And we couldn't be in better hands as Krysta of [Halo: Podcast Evolved](https://www.halopodcastevolved.com/) guides us through the vast lore that is in store! ## Episode Outline ### Fandom Facts **History and Origins:** > Halo is a military science fiction first-person shooter video game franchise created by Bungie and now managed and developed by 343 Industries, a subsidiary of Microsoft Studios. The series centers on an interstellar war between humanity and an alliance of aliens known as the Covenant. The Covenant, led by their religious leaders called the Prophets, worship an ancient civilization known as the Forerunners, who perished in combat with the parasitic Flood. The central focus of the franchise builds off the experiences of Master Chief John-117, one of a group of supersoldiers codenamed Spartans, and his artificial intelligence (AI) companion, Cortana. Other characters, such as Noble Six from Halo: Reach, are also introduced in the series. The term "Halo" refers to the Halo Array: a group of immense, habitable, ring-shaped superweapons that were created by the Forerunners to destroy the Flood. They are similar to the Orbitals in Iain M. Banks' Culture novels, and to a lesser degree to author Larry Niven's Ringworld concept. > > — [Wikipedia - Halo (franchise)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_(franchise)) The game franchise has been running since 2001, and in that time over 65 million copies of the 13 games have been sold, grossing almost $3.4 billion (not counting the books, comics, live action films and miniseries, and anime). **Search Data:** By search data, [interest in the Halo franchise has been on a slow decline](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=%2Fm%2F04h6hv,%2Fm%2F0128442n,%2Fm%2F026wy8d). Comparing to other first-person shooters, it's possible that this is in part due to more competition. Interest in the game mostly spikes around the release of new games. The top countries for Halo, by search volume, are as follows: Mexico, Columbia, United States, Australia, Canada, Guatemala, New Zealand, Panama, Puerto Rico, United Kingdom. **Fan Demographics:** This week, we have an assortment of data from different sources. The most comprehensive we found was this survey from [r/halo](https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/1wwgas/halo_a_demographic_survey/) with over 1300 results: - _Gender_: Mostly male (96.2%; female 3.8%) - _Age_: Mostly 18-24 (61.8%); 15-17 (22%); 25-34 (14%) - _Employment_: Mostly students (51%); Employed full-time (22.1%); Employed part-time (13.7%) - _Ethnicity_: Mostly white / caucasian (79%); Spanish / Hispanic / Latino (6.7%); Asian (4.6%) - _Marital Status_: Mostly single, never married (86.7%); Living with partner (6.2%); Married (5.2%) Regarding age data, there is this thread from the [Halo Waypoint forums](https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/90a6869bcf944c54a17102ac9e31da1a/topics/average-age-of-halo-players/395d83dd-0491-4ea4-867c-ae4966e637d0/posts) (number of participants is not stated): - 1% - Child (5-8) - 3% - Young Teen (9-13) - 41% - Teenager (14-19) - 41% - Young Adult (20-29) - 13% - Adult (30-64) - 1% - Senior (65+) And a different source, [T3CHNOCIDE's Demographic Survey Results](http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:T3CHNOCIDE/Demographic_Survey_Results) (over 250 respondents), which seems to corroborate age and gender data: - _Age_: Mostly 14-17 (50%); 18-21 (25%); 22-30 (12.5%) - _Gender_: Mostly male (90%); other / no answer (7.5%); female (2.5%) **Fanac Fast Facts:** - Archive Of Our Own has [over 600 works related to Halo](https://archiveofourown.org/tags/Halo%20(Vide
