Two for two now, set up a diode with a RedWave controller this time!!
Super excited to be building up a laser system ‘by hand’ with these different devices!

🔬 New toy in the lab: just set up an Eagleyard laser diode to trap some spicy lithium atoms. First light + smooth threshold = good vibes!

Just a shot of Glasgow being amazing! 🤩 Felt a little blessed to be living here

Love this piece!

I feel this so much, they’ll basically infect every system such that is ubiquity makes people use it, not it’s utility

That’s an amazing shot, Paul. Love this one ☺️👍🏼

First day back as a postdoc and I had forgotten how chaotic, but weirdly energising academia can be!

You’re welcome! ☺️
Oh that’s cool, yeah musicians is the difficult one, just thought to mention as they sometime advertise in the same way.

But anyway you gave me an idea to do something similar where I live acc :)

Beautiful!

All ages are good for these books! Which one is your favourite?

Gah I think it was around school age for me, like 12-15 years!

Those illustrations look stunning 🤩

The blues and yellows are fantastic!

The voyage of the Dawn Treader!
Or a Tale for the Time Being, both very dreamy in style!

The charm school was amazing! Read it in school, made me learn Russian for a bit!

Love the colour contrast!

Quite a cool initiative! 😎
Seen smth like this work quite well for local artists/musicians!

Those turtles riding those ocean currents in Finding Nemo (ocean gyres??)… What is the deal with them?! Are they real??
There was a book by Ruth Ozeki that talks about these currents a little 🤏
Would love to know more!

Book is about smth else, but check it out (A tale for the time being)

My kinda painting, with different shades of blue!

Thinking about making a zine to explain the research I do - basic quantum physics and AMO science -in a more creative, accessible way.
If you’ve made a science zine (or seen cool ones), I’d love to check them out! #inspiration

Of course 🙃😝

Defo looks like site of some cult worship!

They cast shadows like ships! If ships ever took ✈️

Reminded me a little of Edward Hopper painting, lot more sombre/pensive though! The light is fantastic!

This pink and grey shot of elephants is a absolutely beautiful 🤩

Studying up on ultracold fermionic systems…

Blown away by how BEC–BCS theory threads through so many systems—from ultracold atoms to neutron stars. The universality of condensed matter never ceases to amaze me.

Quantum matter shows up everywhere! 🧊🌌

Back in London and enjoying time off with some coffee in the garden ☕️🌦️

After my PhD, I joined a quantum startup- grateful for the opportunity to involved in the nascent quantum industry.
But my love for ultracold atoms couldn’t be quenched!
Will return to academia to once again create cool physics in the lab!

Excited for what’s next!
