What I have been doing…

2 + 2 = ?

The other day my 8 year old son came with this one:

- If 2 values 1, how much is 2 + 2 ?

Back to physics, back to research

Today is a very special day for me. My request for a transfer from the electronics division (where I was working since 2004) to the materials division was accepted about a month ago, and today was my first day in the new division. Now it is for real: I have a full-time research, permanent job position in physics!

Life is strange and full of surprises. I am happy.
