Nokia N82
(2007)

One of the absolute greatest and most capable Symbian smartphones of the Nseries era. While the famous N95 captured most of the headlines, the N82 quietly stole the mobile photography crown by offering something its sibling lacked: a professional, powerful Xenon flash.

CPU: ARM 11 332 MHz with 3D Graphics HW Accelerator
Memory: 128 MB RAM, microSD slot (up to 8 GB)
Display: 2.4" TFT QVGA (240x320, 16M colors)
Camera: 5 MP Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus, real Xenon flash
Features: Wi-Fi, GPS, Stereo speakers, built-in accelerometer
Battery: 1050 mAh (BP-6MT)

The killer feature of the N82 was its real Xenon flash allowed users to take stunning, blur-free photos in pitch-black conditions, perfectly freezing motion in a way standard LED flashes never could. It also featured automatic screen rotation via a built-in orientation sensor. It's a legendary low-light photography pioneer.

I was thrilled to be working in the 2km-deep underground laboratory yesterday. This is the flagship laboratory location for #SNOLAB

I focused on working with teams on the #cryogenic distillation column (“#Xenon Still”) and the #PICO #darkmatter detectors. There were a number of small tasks to complete, but all were key to operations.

I also took photos of the original “blue doors” that used to be the main entrance to the SNO experiment. These are now INSIDE the expanded clean lab.

nächster Vortrag: Taisia Gorkhover, How I Learned to Love Xenon Clusters

Xenon-Cluster sind winzige Ansammlungen von Atomen, irgendwo zwischen einem einzelnen Atom und einem Festkörper. Sie sind für die Forschung besonders wertvoll, weil man ihre Größe sehr genau einstellen kann und weil sie extrem einfach aufgebaut sind. Wenn sie mit sehr intensiven Laser- oder FEL-Pulsen bestrahlt werden, bilden sie ein Nanoplasma – eine Art heißes, extrem dichtes Mini-Plasma, das sich innerhalb von Femtosekunden entwickelt.

Solche Cluster eignen sich hervorragend, um zu verstehen,

wie Materie unter extremer Strahlung reagiert,

wie einzelne Teilchen im Gasstrahl gestreut werden,

und wie Plasmen auf der kleinstmöglichen Skala entstehen.

Kurz: Xenon-Cluster sind ideale „Modellobjekte“, um komplexe Prozesse unter extremen Bedingungen zu untersuchen – sowohl experimentell als auch mit präzisen Simulationen.

I am excited to be in Montreal for the next several days for the “Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay in #Xenon - Next Generation Experiment Workshop” hosted by McGill University.

https://nyx.physics.mcgill.ca/event/538/

Denoted “0νββ”, this ultra-rare process would only exist if the #neutrino is its own antiparticle. This would make it unique among its sibling particles … and provide a pathway to determination of the neutrino’s mass.

This year I can check a thing off of my Art Career bucket list,

I am finally a part of Art Basel Miami in some capacity! CAMP gallery has some of my work at their brick an mortar space in Miami and they are doing a show that runs during SCOPE, a weeklong art fair in Miami that happens during Basel.

So its a satellite of a satellite but that counts in my book :). The gallerist was worried that there wouldnt be wall space, but that is just fine an dandy by me as I prefer the wide open pedestals. They dont love the wires and transformers that I typically include in the open, an I have been loving the cloudy effect that Ali's sheeps wool brings. So I made a little demo video of this piece I have in NYC and one of my new weblink transformers.

They do have some neat pieces of mine down there.

Psyche passa alla linea del propellente di backup

Gli ingegneri della NASA che gestiscono i sistemi della sonda Psyche sono riusciti a sviluppare una soluzione per affrontare un imprevisto calo di pressione nei condotti del propellente riscontrato alla fine di aprile, quando appunto è passata da 2,5 bar a 1,8 bar. È stato infatti comandato alla sonda di passare ad una linea di alimentazione di backup, la quale attualmente sta operando in modo nominale.

Il sistema propulsivo della sonda statunitense è di tipo solare elettrico; essa infatti è dotata di quattro propulsori elettrici a effetto Hall allo xeno, i quali tramite l’applicazione di una tensione e di un campo magnetico producono degli elettroni che vanno a ionizzare gli atomi neutri del propellente. Gli ioni così prodotti, vengono accelerati dal campo elettrico ed espulsi dall’ugello generando la spinta e la tipica scia dal colore blu brillante.

Psyche utilizza un propulsore alla volta, ottenendo una spinta fino a 240 mN (milliNewton) e nei suoi serbatoi al lancio erano stoccati 1.085 kg di xeno. L’energia elettrica usata da tutti i sistemi del veicolo spaziale è generata da due pannelli fotovoltaici a cinque sezioni ciascuno, i quali producono 21 kW in prossimità del nostro pianeta e fra i 2,3 e 3,4 kW durante la fase orbitale attorno all’asteroide.

I controllori della missione hanno messo in pausa i quattro propulsori in aprile per indagare su un inatteso calo di pressione, determinandone poi la causa in un’anomalia ad una valvola che gestisce il passaggio del propellente. Attraverso un esteso lavoro diagnostico e di test, gli ingegneri hanno concluso che una parte di questa valvola difettosa stava ostruendo il passaggio dello xeno verso i propulsori.

Essendo stato completato il passaggio alla linea di alimentazione secondaria, la squadra di controllo della missione intende riaccendere il sistema propulsivo di Psyche per la metà del prossimo mese di giugno.

La sonda è stata progettata con una linea di alimentazione del propellente ridondante, che è identica a quella primaria e a scanso di ulteriori imprevisti, gli ingegneri intendono mantenere la valvola della linea di riserva in posizione aperta, per garantire il flusso continuo di propellente.

A causa della loro elevata efficienza, i propulsori ad effetto Hall di Psyche potrebbero funzionare per anni prima di terminare lo xeno; gli ingegneri hanno stimato che usando la tradizionale propulsione chimica, la missione avrebbe consumato un quantitativo di carburante 15 volte superiore. Inoltre in teoria, questo sistema propulsivo può far raggiungere a Psyche una velocità fino a 200.000 km/h.

La missione Psyche è partita il 13 ottobre 2023 dal Kennedy Space Center a bordo di un Falcon Heavy di SpaceX alla volta dell’asteroide omonimo 16 Psyche situato nella fascia degli asteroidi. La natura di questo particolare asteroide è dibattuta attualmente dagli scienziati; secondo alcuni, esso è il nucleo di un protopianeta antico, mancante degli strati più esterni a causa di impatti con altri oggetti spaziali, mentre secondo altri esso potrebbe essere una parte del nocciolo di un planetesimo, ovvero la parte primordiale più interna di un pianeta roccioso.

Nonostante i problemi con il sistema propulsivo, la sonda ha già percorso un miliardo di chilometri e resta in rotta per raggiungere Psyche come pianificato, nell’agosto del 2029. Nel maggio del 2026, Psyche sorvolerà Marte e usando la sua gravità come una fionda, acquisirà più velocità per il suo viaggio verso l’asteroide metallico obiettivo della sua missione, attorno al quale orbiterà per 26 mesi a quattro differenti altitudini. La missione primaria terminerà nel novembre 2031.

I made this doodle today to do some things the even heat of the kiln is good with including super weird size mismatches and bubbles and whatnot.

Its a bubble doodle! With some wiped tubes, and some hand pulled purple and silver/gold bubbles (the pink and weird brown ones).

Its currently sitting at about 800F in an oven under vacuum for tomorrow (although by tomorrow it will be at 250F).

I plan on putting a wiggly xenon fill in it tomorrow morning.

I like to try bends I have never done before. Its fun to take a bunch of scraps I like an try to make something seemingly impossible with them and it works.... maybe- we shall see tomorrow.

Another piece I put at the Chrysler Glass studio is this 2023 Xenon 9 Shade Handpulled Rainbow. I also whipped up a WeBlink transformer for it that can tune its arc by PWMing the transformer.

Viewers that connect to the pieces wifi network will be able to control the frequency and duty cycle of the transformer and "tame the arc" inside the doodle. I got to see some people interacting with it and it was fun seeing their reactions.

All the colors in this doodle I pulled with my friend Sean Bradley in 2023. A few of them have lots of silver in them. The xenon puts off a lot of UV which makes those silver colors glow in a really neat way. You cannot buy soft glass tubes in these colors, so I made em.

I made a Peertube video with some examples of its lightning being controlled with the web page. check it out to see its wiggly arc.
