📈 It's hard to beat 2024, but 2025 is already close to being the second most luminous LHC year ever

Hét adviesorgaan voor de deeltjesfysica in de VS opgeheven.
SCIENCE POLICY NEWS:

During Yom Kippur, all the members of the High Energy Physics Advisory Committee (HEPAP), myself included, received a letter thanking us for our service and telling us essentially that the almost 40 yo standing federal advisory committee was no more. ⚛️🧪🔭

Why that matters 🧵
DOE Consolidates Office of Science Advisory Committees
Six long-standing committees advising the Department of Energy’s Office of Science have been rolled into one.

🚨 New positions 🚨

We have two open PhD positions, and one postdoc position, to search for double-Higgs production in the LHC Run-3 data, together with the @atlasexperiment.bsky.social group at @nikhef.bsky.social:

Some nice pictures of the cum laude PhD defense of Dr. Bryan Kortman at University of Twente 👨‍🎓
Close enough

Excellent LHC luminosity in 2025
Always a great moment to get a paper copy of the PhD thesis from our students. Marion will defend her thesis 23 October at Radboud University Nijmegen 👩‍🎓

The High-Energy Physics Advisory Panel (HEPAP), which I served on a few years ago has been dissolved.
The six DOE Office of Science FACA (Federal Advisory Committee Act) committees are now replaced with the Office of Science Advisory Committee (SCAC).

Ik kreeg net ook weer een stuk of 50 opties in een datumprikker. Maar ik kreeg na het invullen wel de gesponsorde keuze tussen "een gratis onderbroek" of "korting op een uitvaartverzekering" 🤨
"Bedankt voor het invullen van deze datumprikker! Hierbij krijgt u... korting op een uitvaartverzekering" 🤨

Vandaag was de promotie van Bryan Kortman bij @utwente.bsky.social. Promotoren: Pamela Ferrari, Wouter Verkerke en @tristandupree.bsky.social. Cum laude dus extra speciaal.

Donna Beerda maakte een tekening van de plechtigheid. Heel leuk idee en ook goed gelukt
Geweldige tekening! Je kan gewoon de mensen achter in de zaal herkennen, heel mooi
Great PhD defense by Bryan Kortman at University of Twente yesterday

Congratulations Dr. Kortman! Today Bryan received his PhD at University of Twente, cum laude! 👨‍🎓
Gustavo was jarenlang mijn kantoorgenoot in Belgie, ging er vaak mee voetbal kijken in Brussel 😄

Double the Higgs, double the mystery! 🕵️🕵️
By studying Higgs boson pairs, CMS scientists are charting new territory in the search for particles far heavier than the ones we know.

Had a great week in beautiful Dubrovnik, at the HHH workshop: presenting our latest Higgs results, discussing new plans & ideas, and meeting friends & colleagues
