| The Matter of Everything: How Curiosity, Physics, and Improbable Experiments Changed the World
Audio Signals with guest Dr. Suzie Sheehy on @ITSPmagazine
In this podcast episode, host Marco Ciappelli and guest Suzie Sheehy discuss the book "The Matter of Everything" which explores the #history of #physics through the lens of experimentalists and highlights the often-overlooked contributions of women in the field. They also touch on the topic of #diversity and #inclusion in #STEM and the importance of recognizing the biases and cultural legacies that have contributed to the underrepresentation of women in #science.

Many yrs ago,during mom's illness,a vice-Dean of my Faculty asked me to go talk to him
There he told me: "aLFRe, how happy we are with u.
How nice and cute u are,
you can stay at Faculty spending all your whole life with us"
I replied: "What do you mean MY whole life?! At some point I will have to leave coz I 'd have learned #Physics"
And he said:"That never"
And I said: "Never what?"
And he told me: "Never ever.We don't care if u never learn #Physics,actually no professor here knows #Physics"
The 16th and 17th centuries constituted a period of drastic change in the way humanity conceptualized and sought to understand the world. Scholars made massive leaps in fields such as mathematics, astronomy, chemistry, and, perhaps most notably, physics. Arguably, no city contributed more profoundly to that new understanding than Cambridge." https://www.humanprogress.org/centers-of-progress-pt-38-cambridge-physics/ #History #Science #Physics #Cambridge #histodon #histodons @histodon @histodons

I'm working on my concept of time. Dealing with time travel, I'd like to say I have a sophisticated grasp of the mechanics and paradoxes of time. Yeah. Above my pay grade, boss.
In my world where the present and the near future are connected by a physical gateway, a basic question is: If I do X in the present does X manifest, having always existed, in the future?
My answer so far is: Sometimes? Not exactly. We don't quite know, really.
Time is hard.

I can’t find much of anything on the #physics of what’s going on here. Plenty about soap film but nothing about the shadow.
So, does the fact that there may exist a amother (simulated?) universe that is an exact copy of our universe, where there is abother version of me who is doing exactly what I am doing, mean that I don’t have free will? No, I am freely making all of my decisions, it is just that the decisions that I am making happen (quite unsurprisingly) to be the same as the ones that the “other me” is making. That does not make my (our) decisions free. #physics #philosophy #compsci
A proof that Laplace’s Demon is impossible in this universe: Assume that Laplace’s Demon exist. Then its mind must contain within itself a model of all the universe. But Laplace’s Demon’s mind is itself part of this universe, therefore it must contain a model of itself, which leads to infinite regress. #philosophy #physics #compsci

In my experience, the challenge in understanding quantum mechanics lies less in its fundamental nature being incomprehensible and more in having to identify and deal with all the perpetuated misconceptions that will pollute your knowledge and keep you from seeing the underlying patterns.
Anyone who is curious about it should first stay away from theoretical models and focus on fundamental principles that are continuously experimentally verified. There is a difference between observed truths and the stories we tell (or models we construct) to make sense of them, because the former is, ideally, indisputable while the latter can only ever approximate truth (as far as we can know). It is good to distinguish between these so as not to get confused about what we think and what we know from observation. What we think can change tomorrow; observational knowledge is much more reliable and transferrable as models and narratives come and go.
“You can think of collision energy as legal tender, to be exchanged, via E = mc2, for particle mass.”

A Danish student has uncovered the secret of black holes in a scientific triumph. The student, Albert Sneppen, solved a 45-year-old problem that baffled physicists by finding a formula that describes how black holes emit radiation. This could help us understand the fate of black holes and the universe's origin.
The electroweak horizon problem. Inflation is usually used to explain why the universe looks roughly the same everywhere, but for some things like the electroweak constant which is universal everywhere this doesn't quite make sense. I first recall reading Penrose about this, but there's a new-ish paper out about it.

I've been on #mastodon for six months, and my enthusiasm has been steadily waning. I've decided to stop using it. It's too hard to find interesting content. Following the #climbing tag means I mostly see random photos of climbing routes people did, which they don't bother to identify or describe. Following the #greek tag (due to my interest in ancient Greek) means I see material about fraternities and Greek politics. #physics is 90% inaccurate pop-sci stuff, often repeated over and over.
Fun #physics:
a) Every E&M student learns the "method of images". To find the field of a point charge near a conducting plane, you replace the conductor with an "image charge" that happens to nail the boundary conditions.
b) A charge near the CORNER of two half-planes has a lovely solution ... sometimes! If the corner angle is 90, 60, 45, 36, 30 etc you can start by placing two full-plane-like images and sort of iterate until you have a circle of them.
c) What about OTHER ANGLES? 1/

Confined to bed, but boundless among the stars: I teared up at this heartbreaking-yet-inspiring #news profile on cosmologist Catherine Heymans. Stricken with long #COVID, she retains her passion for #astronomy and continues to redefine #physics with her study of the "dark universe".
Paul Sen’s book Einstein’s Fridge, on the history of thermodynamics, is brilliant and fascinating and full of insight. This is possibly my favourite new snippet of information, appropriately enough from the final chapter on information thery and how the study of computer bits relates to thermodynamics.

Hey #physics (#fusion) Fediverse,
I would like to inquire about some weird and potentially dubious claims of net energy producing nuclear fusion.
Some hype is going around an entity called Helion. I'm having trouble finding a good description of what exactly it is that they're hyping. All the sources that I have so far are full of red flags of the "this was written by a low-clue PR person" kind. This is often a sign of Theranos-like affair, but considering the high likelihood of such a distortionary process, the things that do seem like physics-side red flags might plausibly be just mistakes by the PR person, so I'm also not, at least so far, confident that it is a grift.
If you happen to understand what it is that Helion claims to do, or better yet, have a link to a good description, please share.

Born #onthisday in 1900, Wolfgang Ernst Pauli was an Austrian theoretical physicist and one of the pioneers of quantum physics.
In 1945, after having been nominated by Albert Einstein, Pauli received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his "decisive contribution through his discovery of a new law of Nature, the exclusion principle or Pauli principle". His discovery involved spin theory, which is the basis of a theory of the structure of matter.
