No post anterior há uma matéria de como o Grid tem ajudado o experimento STAR a investigar a matéria nuclear em condições extremas e o impacto dos seus resultados na comunidade científica. O Cluster de computadores do nosso grupo foi o primeiro site fora dos EUA a fazer parte do OpenScience Grid e vem executando tarefas para o experimento STAR há bastante tempo. Para ver quantos jobs são executados pelos clusters do STAR em tempo real é só clicar aqui.

From Science Gid This Week

Microseconds after the Big Bang, the universe consisted only of a soup of free quarks and gluons. Experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory seek to reproduce this soup—called the quark-gluon-plasma—by creating "little bangs" from high-energy collisions of heavy nuclei. The Open Science Grid's software stack helps the STAR experiment study the quark-gluon plasma in the laboratory by bringing its far-flung computing resources into a uniform environment. Click here for the full text.

Uma das coisas que físicos experimentais fazem quando criança é brincar com ciência. Quando criança, eu fazia alguns foguetes movidos a água, porém coisas bem simples. Pesquisando na internet achei este site. Os foguetes podem ser bastante sofisticados e voar alto... Vou tentar qualquer hora...
