Nano-Magnets 12Nov18

Kala & I finally caught a Science On Tap night at Jack Quinn's tonight. It was a cool talk from a UCCS theoretical physicist (Karen Livesely) on ~30nm magnetic particles (100 atoms wide). There are a number of medical and industrial apps and she was a very clear presenter. She even brought a demo where she "deposited" a fluid of 25nm wide nano-magnets on a "printed" HDD substrate which attracted the magnets to display a pattern. So cool. The crowd was definitely old geeks like us - looking for a keen excuse to have a drink... there's even a "drink break" between the pitch and the Q&A. SoT is highly recommended... we'll be back.
