The father Antoine Edmond (1820-1891) was also physicist and invented colour photography in 1848. #historyOfPhysics

Sun is out - new cyanotype prints! This one is inspired by the Wilson cloud chamber and cosmic rays. A Wilson cloud chamber is basically a tank of condensed, supercooled water (or alcohol) vapour. It is used to detect high energy particles - ionizing radiation. …

#Cats #Duvets #TheoreticalPhysics
A little #HistoryOfPhysics analogy: when antimatter was first suggested as a mathematical prediction (specifically the positron, a POSItive elecTRON) there was some discussion over whether it was a new particle, or just an *absence* of an electron in a field that was all electrons. A "hole" where an electron should be?
For example, is this an absence of a cat, or is it a negative cat?
