An Eclipse before Sunset

Mountain Village at Sunset.

During my travels to numerous countries over 40 years, I have seen many picturesque mountain villages with elegant and well-preserved houses perched on carefully selected sites on the mountains, and others located by a river or lake at the foot of a mountain. They appear remarkably harmonious with the natural scenery. Fruit trees or tea trees and crops such as rice, wheat, and corn are planted ...

Sunset for statins after AURORA?

Sunset for Leaded Aviation Gasoline?

You can feel every bump in the tarmac as the plane heads down the runway, every rumble of the engine. Once you are aloft there's no denying the improbability of flight; the low cruising altitud...

A walk on sunset boulevard

A walk on sunset boulevard can teach us about transcendental functions associated to Feynman diagrams. On this guided tour we will see multiple polylogarithms, differential equations and elliptic curves. A highlight of the tour will be the generalisation of the polylogarithms to the elliptic setting and the all-order solution for the sunset integral in the equal mass case.
