The Strong Nuclear Force (video)
07/03/08 • -1 min
The Thought Experiment podcast has been kind of stagnant lately. Largely because I've been so busy here on campus with Dark Matter research and so on and hopefully this video, a talk I gave recently on the strong nuclear force that holds atomic nuclei together, can shed some light on just how jam packed my schedule has been these last few days.
The recording quality is rather lacking, yes, but my placement of the microphone in the lecture hall I guess was less than strategic. Plus it has more buttons to confuse an astronaut!
Enjoy!

Quantum Tunneling
Quantum Tunneling
Tunneling is a very, very mathematical process by which a particle can 'leak' out into its surroundings. This has to do with all sorts of things called wave functions, probability densities, and so on, but the real aspect behind them is: how can we use this for our macroscopic advantage?

Shedding Light on Dark Matter (part 1)
In the fall I'm giving a lecture series on topics ranging from the history of the universe to time travel. Dark Matter is one of those topics.
In this first of 4 part series, I give a brief introduction and go over distinguishing Dark Matter from what isn't Dark Matter.
Next installment deals with properties of matter and Dark Matter and how they apply to baseball.
