A wide variety of newly publicly available #cosmology talks since just Nov 1 Links to them all continually updated at the Cosmology Researcher Talks database app at jrdmb.netlify.app/crt.html

Dillon Brout gave the first public talk on this new paper and the H0 Distance Network today at the CfA ITC luncheon There were 3 talks at the lunch, this is a direct link to the start of Dillon's talk: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nzV... #cosmology

Now using Obsidian for markdown notes, so looked for good examples covering its features => AstroWiki, study notes for MIT Astrophysics Oral Qualification Exams. Available as GitHub repo and website, d/l it for your own edits. GitHub: github.com/AYelland/Ast... Site: publish.obsidian.md/astrowiki

Use Case: Quickly identify what was said about :topic in list of multiple yt talk videos (e.g., at a conf), including timestamps to those segments Tip: Use google's NotebookLM, add talk urls to a notebook, then ask your questions. The AI uses the transcripts as source to provide the output.

Dragan Huterer's DESI 3-Year Analysis talk yesterday at EuCAPT Virtual Colloquium cds.cern.ch/record/2945960 A little teaser at 43:27: Are the LCDM tension & Hubble tension related? His take is no, they're different, from segment "5 facts about hints for DDE (and Hubble tension)" starting 38:26

Quote from film/book "Tracks" about Robyn Davidson's mostly solo 1,700 mile trek across Western Australian deserts with 4 camels and her dog: "It seems to me the universe gave us three things to make life bearable: hope, jokes, and dogs. But the greatest of these gifts was dogs."

Just found out about Anna's Archive, the FAQ calls it "The largest truly open library in human history" annas-archive.li/faq Wikipedia article: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna%27... A note of thanks to @anitaleirfall.bsky.social, saw it from an article she posted

Easily create a .html file that self-renders BOTH Markdown and LaTeX syntax within it. Doesn't even need hosting on server - just open in browser & page self-renders with internet connection. A one-liner header does the magic. The Muboard tool by Susam, creator of other great tools, like TeXMe.

Late spring evening walk at sunset uphill to the rock labyrinth that a local rock club created about 10 years ago. A large white oak tree overlooks it. Mount Diablo is barely visible in the background. Great views of the Diablo valley from up here.

Newest recordings today from CosmoVerseLectures@YourDesk WG on observational cosmology and systematics. Hee-Jong Seo: Cosmology with BAO Shi-Fan Chen: LSS from Theory to Observables At their site cosmoversetensions.eu/event/cosmov... and yt channel www.youtube.com/@cosmoverses... #cosmology

Just want to say how much I enjoy the beautiful natural scenes that so many post here. One of mine is these rock cavities called tafoni, photo from Pescadero Beach, south of SF. Thanks @whereisyvette, @ultrawimp, @mcnees, @cburgescliff and others too numerous to name for your frequent scenic photos

Colin Hill (ACT) and Simone Ferraro (DESI) on Implications of Recent Cosmic Data, in group discussion moderated by Daniel Green, at the recently formed Quantum Cosmology seminar series. Recorded today, May 1. #cosmology www.youtube.com/watch?v=We50...

I know....but I swear, it's exactly like this - no filter, no change of any colour or contrast - location and light were just perfect today. 😊🥰

New Quantum Cosmology series, thanks ‪@bahramshakerin.bsky.social‬ for spotting it. No website for it (at least yet) & only info I've seen about it are comments by Mark Van Raamsdonk (apparently one of the organizers) at the beginning of first talk in the series at www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfQx...

CosmoVerse: new Lectures@YourDesk series to "provide early stage researchers with an in-depth understanding of the technical details of leading measurements ... of cosmic tensions with a real focus on the underlying analysis." First video recordings: Tamara Davis and Julien Lesgourgues & schedule

Another of simon's useful web tools that he uses LLMs to code for him. He posts in his weblog how each was created, usually with prompts and transcripts showing the process. A web page links to them at tools.simonwillison.net and that page includes a link to a github repo with the code for each.

Today begins 3rd and final season of Bosch: Legacy, which followed 7 seasons of original Bosch series. Titus Welliver is awesome in this role, as convincing and riveting a character portrayal as was James Gandolfini in The Sopranos and Michael Chiklis in The Shield.

About month ago we put our multiprobe paper on the arXiv! If you've ever wondered: - what happens when dynamical dark energy models are confronted with combined probes? - what a consistent multiprobe framework means for neutrino masses? Then this could be for you! arxiv.org/abs/2502.01722

2nd Nordic Cosmology Meeting is underway at University of Helsinki, slides available for most talks. Event is from March 12 - 14. #cosmology

Saw that @alphaxiv.org now has an AI feature to create paper overviews (using Mistral OCR and Claude), so I created one for new DES paper 2503.06712. Includes figures, key findings, etc. Once created, it's publicly available to everyone at the overview link. alphaXiv also has a cosmology community.

The publicly available talks from Early Universe from Home are all now available here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Cr...

Today the U of Helsinki Cosmology seminar series released 3 talk videos given from Jan 15 to Feb 19 by Denis Werth, Simone Blasi, and Philippa Cole. Usually they're posted shortly after the talk, but on occasion they're released in a batch like this. www.helsinki.fi/en/news/unit...

Ever been curious about what's the deal with neutrino oscillations? Look no further than this review I just posted: arxiv.org/abs/2501.08374. It's suitable for a general audience including advanced undergrads and should get people up to speed on where we are with neutrino oscillations today!

In addition to her published papers, there are at least 9 publicly available research talks by Priyamvada Natarajan on her work. Congrats to her on this award. jrdmb.netlify.app/crt.html?s1=...

Natural sci Q&A @seanmcarroll.bsky.social How does the philosopher's mindset inform or help your work as a physicist (link card) Thru most of recorded history the space betw philosophy & science was negligible, what's lost by separating world of ideas from world of science youtu.be/G2mSlh-z89o?...
