Sheldon’s research papers?

Direct Evidence of Gravitational Waves in Polarization Data from the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation.

Lasers Ignite Supernovae in the Lab. (Uh, wouldn’t a true supernovae set off fire alarms or sprinklers or something?)

Wakefield Particle Accelerators on a Tabletop achieve new world record for compact particle accelerator, which means that Cheap Compact Particle Accelerators May Be Our Physics Future. (OK.)

Scientists at University of Göttingen and the Institut Laue Langevin Come Up With Ice XVI, A New Form Of Ice. (I’ll have bourbon and Coke and that new kind if ice, not that frozen water stuff.)

New Paper Explains How To Make Supermaterial Graphene In A Blender. To wit, per Nature News: Place 0.5 l water, 10-25 ml detergent, 20-50 g graphite in 400W blender, and run 10-30 min. Nature paper: Scalable production of large quantities of defect-free few-layer graphene by shear exfoliation in liquids.

(There are more.)
