“ Honestly, if you're given the choice between Armageddon or tea, you don't say 'what kind of tea? ”

Neil Gaiman

Well unless you have actually completed that Doomsday Device, this week you do not have that kind of choice so you should just join everyone for tea, coffee and cookies at 16:00 on Thursday!

"If man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty."

Okakura Kakuzō, The Book of Tea

Come fill yourself with tea, coffee and free cookies before coming back to marvel at the beauty of your experiments and the truth behind your hypothesis!

This mini vortex-meeting will focus on recent research and future advances in the study of vortices, rotation and turbulence in superfluids. Studies of quantum turbulence in atomic gas Bose—Einstein condensates is an emerging field, built on extensive experimental and theoretical investigations into the controlled generation and observation of the physics of vortices in atomic and exotic condensates. Due to the controllable nature of Bose-Einstein condensates and simplicity of quantum vortices in comparison with their classical counterparts, this research field has great potential to uncover new insights into quantum turbulence, vortices and superfluidity, in addition to establishing similarities and differences to classical turbulence.

"If afternoon teas had started in the Oligocene Epoch, instead of the seventeenth century, we are convinced that evolution, far from discarding that useful appendage, the tail, would have perfected it. A little hand would have evolved at the end of it — such a one as might hold his saucer, while a gentleman sips from his teacup."

~Contributors' Club, The Atlantic Monthly , October 1917

And if cookies were baked since the Cretaceous era, we would probably have extra limbs to hold onto more of them as well as increased land speed to make it before they run out in the first few minutes.

Please note that the Teatime this week will start a bit later than usual due to the ongoing Admissions Workshop, so come discuss the merits and weaknesses of this hypothesis on Thursday at 16:30 in the Restaurant Area on Level B of the central building!
