hp-photo-cover April 10

In this issue:

-- Jobs go begging in accelerator science

-- The slow, careful path to discovery at the Large Hadron Collider -- aptly titled "Are we there yet?"

-- A science-fiction story written especially for SLAC by John Gilbey, featuring an interview with the author.

Plus: A new school of physics in Africa; the now-you-see-it, now-you-don't quantum art of Julian Voss-Andreae; a little-known product of particle accelerators that lives inside your house, your office and your car;  a giddy fan collects physics autographs; the neutrino explained in 60 seconds; and more.

A pdf of the issue is available for download here.
