New paper time! Some very cool work led by the amazing Susan Bernal and her Leeds team, with me plus U.Manchester and ESRF, watching carbonation of cement by XRD-CT - call it 5D materials analysis? Crystallography/3D space/time... Hope you like it!

The evil algorithm driving what remains of this hellscape has three suggestions for me to follow today: Musk (ugh - if I wanted to read the rantings of unhinged far-right narcissists I'd just follow Trump or something) ESPN (actually, fair enough...) Trump (but.. what.. hang on?)
