Einen Beruf ausüben, der das Leben finanziert, gleichzeitig einen Mehrwert für die Gesellschaft bietet und persönlich erfüllend ist – das ist für viele Gymnasiast:innen und Student:innen die Idealvorstellung. Ein Studium der Mathematik, Astronomie und Physik (MAP) macht genau das möglich. Das zeigt eine Porträtserie der Plattform MAP der Akademie der Naturwissenschaften (SCNAT).

Piles of pile-up data turned to good use
Researcher Steven Schramm and his team from the University of Geneva have found a way to make use of the unloved and unwanted extra-stuff from the collisions of the ATLAS experiment: they turn it into a new dataset with the potential to perform precision tests for the Standard Model of particle physics and probes for potential future collider collisions. A study described in a reference paper shows that it is possible to extract the jet energy resolution from this extra data.
