Particle discovery
May. 1st, 2003 07:26 pmWoo hoo! Today both my experiment and my department made the news - in different areas.
Physicists find 'rebel' particle
Dark matter in deepest Yorkshire (I understand it was also in yesterday's Telegraph and Independent)
I don't really have anything to do with the Dark Matter search (Nigel Smith, quoted in the Guardian and Independent articles, is in my department), but I am an author on the Ds(2317) paper - by dint of being a member of the collaboration, not because I made the analysis myself (I did help the true authors access their data, so I'm not a complete freeloader). More details here.
