Før Memmo var mine noter spredt ud over PDF'er. Nu samler et workspace alt ét sted – og jeg ser præcis, hvad der er tilbage at læse op på.
“History is not arbitrary. The history of accelerators is no exception. For nearly a century, ideas of newer and ever more advanced accelerators evolved, one new brilliant idea led to another, and one pioneer built on the accomplishments of predecessors. Told by two story-tellers, this insightful book weaves together the stories of the people, the episodes, and their moments of eureka. The reader is to be pleasantly rewarded with their own moments of revelations.”
“This beautiful book traces the history of particle accelerators, from the first table-top devices to the present 30-km-circumference colliders. Very richly illustrated, written in a fresh, ‘non-technical’ yet scientifically accurate style, it admirably transmits the spirit of this truly international venture. With excellent biographical material on the main actors and the numerous ‘sidebars’ explaining technical developments, it appeals to the expert as well as to the general public. A delight and a ‘must’ for anybody interested in the (ongoing!) saga of accelerator development.”
“I believe that the book describes very well the history of particle accelerators. Active scientists and historians of science will appreciate this chronicle of the development of particle accelerators and their key role in the progress of physics and other sciences during the last half century. Once again the authors show how the progress of science is strongly related to the progress in the instruments that allow us to ‘see’ beyond our senses, to see the structures of atoms and molecules, and the structures inside the atoms and inside the protons and neutrons. From the structure of proteins to the standard model of elementary particles, the scientific development is traced back to the development of these wonderful instruments, the particle accelerators.”
“The development of particle accelerators presents one of the great intellectual and technical achievements of human activities. Its history is told in the book from the very beginnings to future projects in an extremely competent and complete manner since the two authors have contributed themselves in many ways to its success. They report in a very fair way the achievements by small and large laboratories on both sides of the Atlantic and elsewhere. Thanks to the many nice pictures the book is easy to read also for the non-expert and in ‘biographical sidebars’ the careers of many physicists and engineers are brought back to life in an animated fashion. One should appreciate that not only the well-known ‘stars’ are mentioned but appropriate credit is given also to those who made essential contributions but remained more in the shadows. Anybody who is interested in scientific and technical history or in the achievements of human intellect should read this book.”
“Above all, this book uplifts one's spirit; one reads it with zest, admiration and awe. The power of sheer dedication, brilliance, creativity, humility and humanity of the whole enterprise expressed in the pages of the book is sure to inspire and motivate generations to come.”
“… there are many interesting and amusing anecdotes and analogies illustrated by a fantastic collection of photographs of early accelerators … this is an excellent and unusual book that is well written, easy to read and as interesting for those outside the accelerator field as it is for those within it. It would make an ideal coffee-table book for university common rooms and accelerator control rooms (to entertain scientists waiting for beams!).”
“Thanks to the fresh and pleasant language that Sessler and Wilson use, Engines of Discovery should appeal to anybody interested in the history of scientific progress … With this book, the authors ensure that the enthusiasm that has led so many people to dedicate their lives to this branch of physics will continue to grow.”

Memmos opsummeringer er guld inden eksamen. Jeg slipper for at genlæse 800 sider to uger før – kun de vigtigste dele.
AI-chatten har reddet mig aftenen før en eksamen mere end én gang. Jeg spørger, indtil jeg forstår det – og slipper for at vente på svar i en studiegruppe.
Quizzen rammer præcis det, jeg skal kunne. Memmo holder øje med, hvad jeg har svært ved – så jeg øver mig kun på det, der er det værd.
Flashcards med spaced repetition er magi. Memmo ved, når jeg er ved at glemme noget, og viser det igen.
AI-podcasts er min favorit. Jeg lytter på vej til skole og får en opsummering uden at sidde foran en computer.
