It’s collaboration meeting time again. When BaBarians last met in June, it was at SLAC. I split my time between plenary presentations, parallel sessions, chairing sessions, and (of course) hurrying to get the numbers needed to my own research presentations. It’s busy, but fun. This time around, BaBar is largely in France for its fall collaboration meeting. I’m still here in CA, a decision based on a variety of things. But I’m not less busy, and tomorrow night at midnight I’ll be calling into a session to present some preliminary results on a new research collaboration.<\/p>\n
It’s good fun. I like the feel of new research. There is excitement in new colleagues, new ideas, the occasional disagreement. It’s invigorating. And, of course, with 24 hours left I’m pounding the plastic trying to pull my talk together and still get the latest numbers out of the data. Good times. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
