Physics Conference Blogging

It's not as sexy as Strings 2006, but it's easier to understand what the talks are about: Nathan Lundblad is blogging from the International Conference on Atomic Physics in Innsbruck, Austria (the bastard). Posts so far:

(The latter includes the announcement of the [Norman] Ramsey Prize, "to be given to the first credible measurement of a nonzero electron EDM, with the caveat that it be done in his lifetime." For those not in the field, Ramsey is 91, so that's an important caveat...)

Now that I've plugged this, Nathan will no doubt crumble under the pressure, and stop updating for the rest of the conference, but at least there's some interesting stuff in the first couple of posts.

On the contrary; you've given me motivation. It might devolve into beer evaluation and mocking of German toilets, but there will be at least a few more physicsy posts.

In the words of someone wiser than I: I can't promise to try. But I'll try to try.
