Detecting incident angles of radioactive particles with the Timepix 3 detector
My University final year project was “Detecting incident angles of radioactive particles with the Timepix 3 detector”, as I had experience with using Timepix detectors for a few years by then, and I thought this could be a useful project for future research in this area.
The project overall had a negative outcome - I was not able to determine incident angles with a single detector. You can download the full report here.
German Infrastructure Trip
In October 2025, thanks to some of my own research and the Infrastructure Club Travel Guide I decided to go on an infrastructure tour of the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany!
I chose this area as it’s pretty easy to get to by train from the UK - and it has some amazing places that have been preserved that you can’t find here. Plus, the D-Ticket is such amazing value and meant I could travel around very cheaply.
Dallas Pedestrian Tunnel Network
If you like liminal spaces, then the Dallas Pedestrian Network is for you. I visited in 2022, and have finally (!) written up this short post showing it off!
It’s wild! It definitely looks like in some places it’s on its last legs - places are not maintained very well or at all.
Some of the network is actually above ground, and I did not realise this initially when I visited. The underground sections felt more neglected than the above ground ones.
