According to Albert Einstein, we live in a universe full of gravitational waves. He suggested that the movements of heavy objects, such as black holes and dense stars, create waves that change space and time. We have a chance to detect these waves, but we need your help to do it!". This is how the project is introduced in their
website. Similar to the
SETI@home (Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence) the project
Einstein@home creates a network of home computers to analyze gravitational wave detectors data. The project is sponsored by the
American Physical Society (APS).

While looking at a news blog (
o velho) I read about the most dangerous toys ever made. One of them was very interesting and I would like to share in this blog. One of these toys was an Atomic Energy Lab for kids, just like the Chemistry sets we find nowadays in any toy store. It was the 50s in the USA and Nuclear Science was really a subject in everybody lives because of cold war. It is interesting because it shows kids how fascinating the atomic and nuclear world can be and, if treated with care, it shall not be dangerous. I am not sure about the quality of these toys because I never had the opportunity to see one of them but I could find some reviews. You can read more about these toys
here and
here.

It has been a while since I decided to use
Pivot also as framework for the
PelROOT web page. It is now done, although the documentation is still being ported to the new framework. I hope that
Pivot will help me keep the
PelROOT page updated and will provide me tools to add more and more FAQs, examples and support docs to the page.

" ... Depois da preleção, alguns estudantes formaram uma pequena delegação e vieram até mim, dizendo que eu não havia entendido os antecedentes deles, que eles podiam estudar sem resolver os problemas, que eles já haviam aprendido aritmética e que essa coisa toda estava abaixo do nível deles.

Como estou participando do STAR Collaboration Meeting e, depois, do Quark Matter, na China, eu terei que adiar as próximas aulas do curso de c++ e ROOT. As novas datas para as duas últimas aulas são:
30/11 e
7/12. Todos os interessados podem comparecer. O local continua o mesmo: a sala de seminários do Linac.

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

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.
