by Chad Orzel

When Quantum Physics expert Dr. Chad Orzel went to adopt a dog he never imagined he would end up with one as inquisitive as Emmy. Could she use quantum tunneling to get through the neighbor's fence and chase bunnies? What about quantum teleportation to catch squirrels before they climb out of reach? In this witty and informative book, Orzel and Emmy - the talking dog - discuss the key theories of Quantum Physics and its fascinating history. From quarks and gluons to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, this is the perfect introduction to the fundamental laws which govern the universe. ओपन / कमेंट

2021-09-01 13:18:58 Does Math Reveal Reality?
Mathematics has an uncanny ability to describe the physical world. It elegantly explains and predicts features of space, time, matter, energy, and gravity. But is this magnificent scientific articulation an invention of the human mind or is mathematics indelibly imprinted upon the substrate of reality? Bryan Greene and leading thinkers parse the thorny problems of math’s existence.

Moderator: Brian Greene
Featuring: David Z. Albert, Sheldon Goldstein, Silvia Jonas, and Max Tegmark

w/ Keshav Space — Known matter particles account for only ~5% of the cosmos. The rest of 'Dark matter' and 'Dark energy' is invisible. But what is this dark stuff? How do we know it’s there? And what does it do?
