Visca València!

Amunt País Valencià! Acció Cultural, Òmnium Cultural i Obra Cultural Balear engeguem una campanya de suport per reconstruir espais culturals i educatius vinculats amb la llengua i la cultura al País Valencià. Col·labora-hi: amuntpaisvalencia.cat

The highlight of this week is "Spin-orbit entanglement driven by the Jahn-Teller effect", published in Nature Communications , by Gervasi Herranz and collaborators. Check it out: nature.com/articles/s4146… icmab.es/spin-orbit-ent…

Next 16 and 17 of January 2025, we will have the "ICMAB School on 2D MATERIALS: oxide membranes, twistronics and beyond". 👨‍🔬 Register here: 2dmaterials2025.icmab.es/registration Visit the website: 2dmaterials2025.icmab.es More info: icmab.es/icmab-school-o…

This will be an exciting opportunity to learn the basics on the materials synthesis and the physics behind the exotic properties that these single crystalline membranes display, as well as the novel field of stacking and twisting of correlated oxide membranes.

There's no simpler way to show that boundary value problems are much trickier than initial value problems than by analyzing the simple harmonic oscillator. The following boundary value problem has no solution! #math

On the 16 and 17 of January we will host the School on '2D MATERIALS: oxide membranes, twistronics and beyond'. A full course packed with lectures and poster sessions! icmab.es/icmab-school-o… More info: 2dmaterials2025.icmab.es Gervasi Herranz

This afternoon we will have JACOBO SANTAMARIA giving us a fantastic seminar on twisted oxide ferroelectric membranes! 📌'Remote moiré interactions in twisted oxide ferroelectric membranes' icmab.es/remote-moire-i… Gervasi Herranz

And now, after a long day of learning from Harold Hwang, from Stanford University, and Nini Pryds, Professor at DTU , it's time for the poster session!

We will start the second day at 9 AM 🕘! We will have Nini Pryds and Leni Bascones , and in the afternoon we will have another poster session. Here you have a family picture of all of us:

In the 1960s, Stanislaw Ulam, while doodling during a boring presentation, discovered a surprising pattern when he arranged numbers in a spiral and highlighted the primes. This spiral revealed a striking pattern and structure in the distribution of prime numbers. 📷visualizing

The ICMAB School on '2D MATERIALS: oxide membranes, twistronics and beyond' was a great success!! 🧑‍🏫👨‍🏫 Thanks to all organizers and participants! Gervasi Herranz icmab.es/the-icmab-scho…

Godel's incompleteness theorem (all consistent formal systems aren't "complete" (provided it models arithmetic)) and Turing's theorem (you can't always determine if a program halts) are what you've likely heard of already. There are various other no-go results in philosophy /

HISTORY OF PHYSICS What's wrong with this Lagrangean? by David Mermin. [This is so funny that I'll post it in full]

A l’autobús entre cotxes i bullici, em pregunto: com és possible que un tio tan aparentment aspre i feréstec, s’expressi d’una forma tan sensible i bella? Misteris de muntanya. Un més. Toti
