JanNoWriMo challenge : "Attic Mirror" part 6

I had a kind of a writer block but I think I'm over it now.
I went to Dublin on Tuesday and wrote a lot in the bus. Today I wrote 3000 words and I still have a lot of ideas. I'm still a bit worried of the ending of the story but I guess I just have to let it comes by itself no. Just write one more part at a time until the end and that will do.
I think that not thinking about finishing is helping me a lot.

Stats 8961 words more so that's a total of 44023 words.
Less than 6000 words more to write before the end of JanNoFiMo. One of my friends is wondering how come I didn't finish yet. I'm not going to disappoint her. I'll sure have my 50000 words by the end of the month.

Physics : An other article published

En français
One other article has been published in "Journal Physics B : At. Mol. Opt. Phys". The title is : "Influence of autoionizing states on the pulse-length dependence of strong-field Ne+ photoionisation at 38.4 eV".

In this one the novelty is that we used the time-dependent R-matrix approach to investigate ionization of ground-state Ne+ for several laser field intensities. We discovered that the ionization probability oscillates with pulse length, which is due to population and depopulation of autoionizing states just above the Ne2 + ground state, reached after absorption of a single photon. That's something new that hadn't been studied before.

The paper can be found here.

Peru

En français
From the 18th of November 2009 until the 8th of December 2009, I have been traveling in the South of Peru. That was our first time in South America.
We took the plane first from Belfast to London, from London to Madrid in which airport we had to run a little to catch out plane on time, I almost though that we were going to stay in Spain, form Madrid to Lima.






We arrived in Lima and made a circuit by Bus in the South part of the country visiting Paracas and the Ballestas Island, Nazca, Arequipa, Colca canyon, Puno and the Titicaca lake, Cuzco and the Machu Pichu...
This new part of the travel section will present you our adventure in Peru day by day as well as lots of photos as usual.
Stay tune for discovering our first day in Lima.

JanNoWriMo challenge : "Attic Mirror" part 5

I went through a kind of writer block and didn't reach my word count every day.
I'm getting better. I went to spend one afternoon in a café writing by hand and came back with a lot of ideas. I found some of my characters really inspiring, especially Gideon. He wasn't supposed to be in Demon Soul at the start but he was very helpful there and I wanted to have him in Attic Mirror as well without really knowing how. But now I realize that he is one of my favorite character and I love having hum around even if that's only for a minor role.

Stats : 6005 words more for a total of 35062 words.
