Staff at Nature vote to strike nuj.org.uk/resource/journ…

Nature research paper: Tunable entangled photon-pair generation in a liquid crystal go.nature.com/45odrzX

Staff at Nature journals ready for strike this week over pay Editors and production staff say final offer is insufficient given recent inflation rises and publisher’s profits bit.ly/3VVrtX3

Huge thanks to Nobel prizewinner May-Britt Moser for supporting Springer Nature/Nature Portfolio/nature staff as we face the start of the #SpringerNatureStrike tomorrow🙏

Why Springer Nature staff are striking today: The company claims its offer is “above inflation” — this is what that looks like in reality 📉 #SpringerNatureStrike

There’s an empty chair at #MRS24 today where one of our members should be — this is what we’d rather be doing instead of being forced to strike for fair pay at Springer Nature 😢

Gaussian boson sampling reproduces distributions that are hard to calculate classically and were claimed to show quantum advantage in the noiseless limit. But now a classical algorithm is shown to reproduce experimental results when noise is large. nature.com/articles/s4156…

🚨 Big news on arXiv! 🚨 Over 30 female Quantum Professors have united to release a powerful Manifesto of Values. They reflect on gender issues in quantum physics and call for change with a clear set of values. Let's support and amplify their voices! #WomenInSTEM #QuantumPhysics

ITER now looks likely to be pipped to net gain by private fusion firms. More of what ITER's delay means for the fusion world in my latest story, here: nature.com/articles/d4158…

My latest: Kamiokande-II saw the first supernova neutrinos from the famous SN 1987A. Now Super-Kamiokande is starting to see hints of a "diffuse supernova neutrino background" from across the observable Universe #Neutrino2024 神岡宇宙素粒子研究施設　Kamioka Observatory nature.com/articles/d4158…

We are hiring at Nature Physics! If you have expertise in condensed matter, quantum stuff (broadly defined) or optics/photonics, then we would love to hear from you. Closing date Aug 9th. Feel free to DM or email me if you have any questions. nature.com/naturecareers/…

A reminder that Nature is looking for a new optics and photonics editor. One week left to apply!
