What this blog is about?

To be honest, I have no real long-term strategy on the topics that I will cover. This whole thing starts in a train ride from Frankfurt to Nuremberg, which I am frequently on. Typically, I use this time to answer emails, prepare lectures or write grant proposals, however, sometimes I need breaks. So, this will not mainly be written for you, rather than written as a self-entertainment exercise. I am happy to read comments, I almost certainly will think about them, but I don’t plan to get involved into any discussions (as said, I do this as a break, not because I am bored).

So, take my opinion on things as a snapshot at the time when I post them, not as my definite say… Given the nature of this blog, I target, well, mainly myself, but I try to keep it accessible for people with a physics background. Also, I am “only” an experimental physicist hence my wording (and my understanding) might be a little imprecise in the view of my theory colleagues. That’s all for now, as I am arriving in Nuremberg and have to get out ... (btw: the train was on time)
