🌎A world’s first! In April, the APS became the first synchrotron light source in the world to use a multi-bunch swap-out method of replenishing the electron beam in its storage ring. Learn more about how this new method works: aps.anl.gov/APS-News/2024-04…

Congratulations @thoefler
I'm deeply honored to receive a Max Planck-Humboldt Medal from the two major German science societies and the Ministry of Education and Research. A special honor is to be the second computer scientist to receive this major award the country bestowes upon mid-career scientists.

To produce more accurate models for weather forecasting, scientists at @UCLA and Argonne have begun to investigate large AI models, known as foundation models, which can generate predictions at a fraction of the current computational cost – bit.ly/4f019Co
