My long hiatus and “Ask a Physicist”

By Christopher Moore

I have been missing for a long time.

Last year I was busy writing and defending a dissertation. Then I got a new job. I’ve moved, had a baby and started a new career in the span of six months. Hopefully you understand my absence.

However, the long neglect of ilovephysics.com is officially over. I am starting a new column called “Ask a Physicsist.” Click on the graphic at the top of the page to learn more. Essentially, I’m going to start answering your emails! I get several a week from Physics Phans and crackpots and others, and I thought I would make my responses a little more … ummm … well … I’m actually going to start responding. However, I’m going to respond via this public forum so that everyone can benefit from my wisdom .

Also, two students will be coming on board as contributors to this site. I’m kind of forcing them to contribute, since I control their grade!

Donny will be blogging about the STM project that he is working on. And Andy will begin blogging about a vacuum sputtering system that he will be building this semester. Look for their contributions in the next week or so.

So I’m back. Let’s hope I’m better at finding time to write this semester.

2. I know you’ve missed me, Martin.

   Next step, getting the forum back under control. I’m a little scared to go in there!
