Show PostMaybe someone wondered why I did not put a tool to highlight the Bragg's law when it emerges, or maybe not... Anyway, it's there now ("Bragg condition finder" button), plus an "Explain mode" that describes what the options are for and how to use them. Cheers! 🫸🫷 stecanossa.com/cosplayapp/
Show PostHas been wonderful to have time fully away from work and hanging with my UK family. One bonus of time is being able to sort some nice presents for niblings, inspired by @mineralcup.bsky.social this is what I’ve sorted for the 7-yo.
Show PostMoth transits! I've been loving the Bogong moth resurgence in 2026, took a chance to capture a few of the many, many moths around Sydney passing in front of the Sun, like furry space stations! ASI585MM @90fps, 100-400mm lens at 300mm, focus shifted slightly between Sun and transiting moths.
Show PostI still remember the eye-opening moment when I realized that Bragg and diffuse scattering are both just a sum of waves... I can finally share an applet where anyone can put it into action. No equations, just a play of cosines: CosPlay 👉 stecanossa.com/cosplayapp/ #Crystallography #TotalScattering
