Before anything else, let’s speak for a minute about diversity and minorities. In this context, I definitely recommend that you have a look to this recent preprint. It is not a long read, and it puts the finger on various crucial points. I found out about this article a few days ago, when it has been released. A nice coincidence ;)
As you mentioned data, I would also like to emphases that our idea is to simulate our own “data”, and trigger the interest of experimentalists so that they could initiate corresponding analyses in real LHC data. For that, we need to show what can in principle be achieved with new signals for what concerns our understanding of models of neutrino masses.
Now, let’s go back to the work done (as you can see, I am easily discussing anything. I hope you don’t mind ;) ).
First of all, thanks a lot for sharing your contribution with us. I really hope this citizen science project will allow you to get fully involved in particle physics, despite of the fact it is small in the Philippines. On my side, I will do my best to help you (and all the other participants)!
It was a very nice read, I have related on those points raised and inspired to know that these issues are now being talked about in meetings. There's still a long way to go for a change to happen, but there's no too little of an effort if it's aligned to the goal.
This made things clear for me, now I'm getting the big picture of the project. I am more excited to see how it'll progress. I was reminded by that article I've read on the CERN website on how they try to improve their ways of searching for new physics and that includes the algorithms used, I hope I got it right? :)
Again, thank you for making great efforts in communicating science to everyone. What you're doing right now reminds me of this quote from the preprint you linked:
I'd like to do that as well, even as early as now, when I'm still gaining experience and (hopefully) expertise on this field. 😊
Concerning diversity and the inclusion of minorities, as you said there is still a long way to go. In fact, there will always be a long way to go, as we need to stay careful! If is very easy not to pay attention and go back into the past situation.
The idea of the whole project is to propose a new algorithm to search for new physics, somehow, and to have an idea of its expectation. The latter is important if we want to convince experimentalists to embark.
Finally, thanks a lot for your very nice and encouraging message. Last week was quite emotionally intense to me, and everything got delayed. However, the next episode should appear next week :)
