This week on the Nature cover: Laser-cooled antimatter. Ultraviolet beam manipulates and cools antihydrogen atoms. Browse the issue here: go.nature.com/3sICGZN

Scientists from swanseaphysics, as leading members of the ALPHA collaboration at CERN, have succeeded in cooling down antihydrogen atoms for the first time by using laser light. ➡️ swan.ac/aa7

Science isn’t possible without transferable skills. Sea Cadets goes one further and helps you prove to yourself that you are capable of more than you believe you are right now.

A great oportunity for our students to help inspire future physicists., by acting as mentors. Physics Mentoring Project Swansea PhySoc

The next Early Career Conference in Trapped Ions is going ahead at CERN in January 2022! Look forward to finally seeing everyone again. COST Tipicqa Ion busters Trapped Ions - Stockholm University swanseaphysics IOP Early Career Members Group indico.cern.ch/event/991843/

Beautiful day in Wengen. Perfect for a trip to #Jungfraujoch ⁦Jungfrau.ch⁩

I hope to see many of your there! Register at forms.gle/Y2d1Km7x22bFPD… and invite your friends. Also if you're not an ion trapper, come tell us how cryostat should actually be used.

Excellent to see the work of our ALPHA team and their research on laser-cooling of antihydrogen recognised as a finalist in the top 10 breakthroughs in physics 2021 by IOP Physics World physicsworld.com/a/physics-worl… swanseaphysics Swansea University Physics World #Physics #breakthrough

In this organisation, women's median hourly pay is 43% lower than men's.

Seen my first antiprotons of the year! A full week before physics is due to begin.

The Brit, inches from the abyss, with no way back, only eternal nothingness in front of them and thousands of broken dreams and lost hopes lying shattered and scattered behind, will consider the situation, let out a deep sigh and utter their final words: “Could be worse”

Fancy working with antihydrogen? We have a job going. swansea.ac.uk/jobs-at-swanse…

We're recruiting ion trappers! A PhD position has opened up with our new research fellow Dr. Jack Devlin who will be starting an exciting venture to detect the effects of dark matter using a particle in a Penning trap #darkmatter🌌
