The name LaXesis is related to my obsession for precision time and frequency metrology, and my passion for mythology. LaXesis is an alternate spell of Lachesis, where the letter "X" is the closest replacement for χ (greek letter chi), as done in the arXiv web site.

Lachesis (Greek Λάχεσις) is the second of the Moirai, the ancient Greek goddesses who control the thread of life. According to the myth, Lachesis measures the thread spun on the Clotho's (Κλωθώ) spindle, and Atropos (Ἄτροπος) cuts the thread. As a physicist, I see the thread of life as length and time at once, related by the fundamental constant c (speed of light).
