Welcome!

As many of you are already aware, for the past fifteen years I have been maintaining a series of scientific blogs in which I write simple reviews of complicated scientific theories and concepts, as well as articles summarizing recent news and research from the scientific community.

Within those articles I have often created very brief explanations for concepts in modern physics and related scientific fields. These often take the form of simple analogies or diagrams that simplify the ideas. 

During a recent online tutoring sessions, several of my students expressed an interest in having all of these summaries collected on a single page where they could find them quickly. Always being one to encourage scientific curiosity, I have submitted to their will and produced a new blog of scientific shorts.

Over the next few weeks (or months depending on my schedule) I will be moving some of my older articles over to this new website, in addition to authoring some new ones. The new blog can be found here.

I hope that you will find it understandable and useful, and most of all enjoyable.
