This article is adopted from an e-mail by mentor Steve Schnetzer to teachers and students in the Rutgers QuarkNet summer program. There have been some interesting physics developments over the summer. They are mostly negative developments (things not found), but that doesn't mean they are bad. What…

First Friday Flyer of the 2016–2017 Academic Year! Spotlight on Summer 2016: It has been an exciting summer for QuarkNet! Interest has been, understandably, up on LIGO and gravitational waves, and QuarkNet had LIGO e-Lab workshops at 10 centers. There were also four CMS e-Lab workshops, nine…
