Topic 198499

This afternoon I walked into the office next door to make some last-moment preparations before Sylvia and Avneet leave for Pasadena. We will be attending a LIGO-Virgo meeting there next week and will be presenting updates on our analyses. We are trying to finish up a number of projects so that we can concentrate on the new data, and there's a lot of parallel-work going on at the same time... so here's photo I took of them, with their different search-analysts hats on ! Aren't they cute ? I am so proud of them and of the rest of the team. I will be posting more photos in the future so that you can get to know them better !

Hallo from the GW scientists

They are cute and worthy of pride indeed, looking quite keen and motivated. I see their hats have plenty of room : to keep all that Fast Fourier Transform stuff in !

Cheers, Mike.

Well, now I'm completely confused as to the implications of a "dunce cap". O.o

I think the hats keep their lasers on focus : eyes on the prize ! :-)

The hats reminded me of Einstein's light cones! Safe journey, and it will be an exciting conference - hopefully we will see some of the presentations online soon.

Do they always lean to the right? I of course meant physically not politically :-))

Why do doctors have to practice?
You'd think they'd have got it right by now

I'm sure the hats are very helpful in case of big and dangerous GW. Kind of remind me of breakwaters ;)
