Satellite image of fire in Sevier County, Utah.
I remotely operate sensitive cosmic-ray telescopes in the West Desert of Utah. Wild that we can pick up the light from this wildfire. Be safe, Sevier County!

A room with a GREAT view. Currently waiting for lightning to clear up before we can open #UofU #TelescopeArray doors and capture ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray particles.
Also studying for #JHU graduate course, Chaos and Its Applications. Also, cat. #highenergyastro #fundscience 🧪⚛️ #particlephysics
I help operate the fluorescence detectors for the #TelescopeArray Project, which pick up photons, another byproduct from ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays. Our scintillation detectors in the Utah desert pick up muons too. Between the two, we're helping to this mystery.

Here's a 2018 photo I took of Dr. Belz when we went with Dr. Abbasi and others to set up equipment in the Utah desert.🌵 #TelescopeArray
University of Delaware Arts & Sciences Department of Physics and Astronomy Jamie Zvirzdin University of Utah, Johns Hopkins University Mini-Workshop Psst . . . Your AI Is Showing: How to Put Your Own Voice in Scientific Papers Monday. January 27, 2025 1:00 – 4:30 p.m. In-person: Gore Hall Register Here! (link on real PDF via event site) Seats limited. Want to publish your science article, submit your grant proposal, or receive top marks on a term paper? Think AI can easily write it for you? You might want to think again. Come hear a seasoned science editor and award-winning Science Writing professor at Johns Hopkins University give examples of how painfully obvious the AI voice is to editors, grant-givers, and professors. Jamie Zvirzdin, who now builds neural networks to analyze cosmic-ray data for the Telescope Array Project, will show you how to identify your writing voice and leverage AI to produce outstanding scientific work that still retains your personal linguistic stamp. This three-hour event (with breaks) will cover the main concepts of Subatomic Writing: Six Fundamental Lessons to Make Language Matter (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2023). See reviews for Subatomic Writing from NPR, NASA, MIT, and more at http://www.subatomicwriting.com. Book signing to follow event.
Coming soon to a University of Delaware near you. In-person only. We'll strengthen your own neural net capacities. See PDF here for sign-up link.

I use machine learning (ML) on #TelescopeArray data for cosmic-ray research, and this 🐼 GIF is spot-on. Stochastic gradient descent is when an algorithm improves its predictions by taking random downhill steps—small steps to avoid overshooting the valley (place of smallest error). 😂

Security camera image with red taillights in the distance
Tonight we also had an intruder alert at #TelescopeArray that caused an automatic emergency shutdown. Dave Steck went out to confirm, and I used our security cam to see red taillights in the distance. Dave came back in, sat down, and said evenly, "Now arming targeting lasers." 😂

Small gray mouse wrapped in a mouse pad
Stop everything. You guys, my dad (Dave Steck) and I are running ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray telescopes out in the Utah West Desert this weekend and he JUST CAUGHT A MOUSE WITH THE MOUSE PAD.
Kids, this is why you should go into experimental physics.
