Distinguishing between magnetic states at the atomic-scale 🧪⚛️

Now in @jacs.acspublications.org, we show that SPM with NiCp2 molecules can discriminate between nearly degenerate magnetic ground states 🧲🔬🧑‍💻

Today, #IOCBPrague hosted the first-ever #PHYSCHEMBIOConnect — a joint conference organized together with the @fzuavcr.bsky.social @czechacademy.bsky.social.

Both institutes hope this new event will spark real collaboration between their scientists. 🤝

Can you see molecular orbitals? Or are they really transitions? ⚛️ 🧪

Now in @jacs.acspublications.org, we urge for caution when interpreting STS experiments - particularly for polyradical open-shell molecules 🧲 👨‍💻 🔬

Druhý den Veletrhu vědy? 🔬

Ze startu dne nás navštívil ředitel našeho ústavu Michael Prouza.

A pokud se chcete dozvědět, jak vypadá #fyzikabudoucnosti dorazte k našemu stánku!

A zahrejte si třeba hru o černých dírách nebo dokonce objevte Higgsův boson!

Detektoru neutrin, který je budován na dně Středozemního moře, se podařil husarský kousek

Zaznamenal úplně nejvíc energetické neutrino, které jsme kdy spatřili

Mělo energii ca 10 000x větší, než dokážeme částicím udělit v našich nejlepších urychlovačích

👩‍🔬 We celebrated #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience with our present-day researchers, but women were a key driving force of science historically too, such as Adéla Kochanovská, a #radiography pioneer in the former Czechoslovakia at @czechacademy.bsky.social.

We are at the #scicomm conference 'Komunikace vědy 360°' today! Thanks to @czechacademy.bsky.social, Charles University & @scicomhub.bsky.social for organizing this important event.

We're preparing an outreach anthology, comic book, events and exhibits for you. Feel free to throw more ideas at us!

☄️ Martin Mašek, also using FRAM, also discovered the Christmas comet C/2024 Y1 (Mašek)!

I was happy to highlight some of the outreach and education activities at @fzuavcr.bsky.social and beyond in 2024, and to take a peek into what's coming this year (such as the science edu comics!). Moderating the discussion with our special #InternationalDayofEducation guests was a delight.
On this #InternationalDayofEducation, we were proud to thank our scientists active in education and outreach and to welcome guests involved in various #scicomm, #sciedu and #sciart projects.

We are looking forward to new science education, outreach and art projects and collaborations in 2025!
