• Question: In the interview section on your profile it says: 'What's the best thing you've done as a scientist? Most exciting: Seeing a new detector I designed working and producing good data. Most fun: I called the new detector the Petatron.' How long did it take you to develop this detector and how often is it used now?

      Well i came up with the idea quite quickly while i was working on an experiment in germany 🙂 … and now i am building the next version of it for an experiment in march. I think when i have it as a plug and play style of device it will get used quite a lot as it has a lot of advantages over the current diagnostics we use. 🙂
