  • Renowned theoretical physicist Sean Carroll joins us to discuss his new book "The Biggest Ideas in The Universe: Time, Space and Motion" where he offers a deep dive into physics that pulls back the veil of mystery from most complex ideas in the field.
    In his view, the foundational ideas of classical physics (from Newton to Einstein) is as worthy of our gaze as the Mona Lisa and he is committed to making these ideas accessible to all, which is why this is just the first in a three-book series that will tackle everything from Space, Time, and Motion (century-old ideas that are still relevant in modern research); Quanta and Fields (the fundamental laws of nature); and Complexity and Emergence (the full complexity of the world and where that research will take us). The series was inspired by his wildly popular TH-cam series of the same name, a pandemic project that has accumulated over four million views from fans hungry to expand their minds amid lockdowns and hear Sean explain the most mind-boggling concepts in an entertaining, uniquely lucid way. This first book explores, among many topics, how space and time come together to form spacetime, why calculus is still fundamental to everything we understand about the universe and what escapes from black holes and why.

    Sean Carroll is Homewood Professor of Natural Philosophy at Johns Hopkins University and Fractal Faculty at the Santa Fe Institute. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University. His research focuses on the foundations of physics, including issues in quantum mechanics, spacetime, cosmology, and emergence. He is the author of several books, including New York Times bestseller Something Deeply Hidden. He has been awarded prizes and fellowships by the National Science Foundation, NASA, the Sloan Foundation, the Packard Foundation, the American Physical Society, the American Institute of Physics, the Royal Society of London, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Sean also hosts the weekly podcast Mindscape.
    Moderated by Quentin Capista.

    Every time I get confident in my understanding of _Newtonian_ mechanics, relativity, and spacetime , I hear a lecture or interview from Sean Carroll. It always humbles me. I know he doesn't know everything, but he knows a hell of a lot more about physics than I ever will. It sounds like he dreams about theoretical and modern physics.

    Wow, Sean Carroll never seems to age. He should promote some anti aging product or something like that. He would make a fortune. I'm going to watch this again and again to understand the Einstein Field Equation. My own interpretation is that the "=" sign is not a proportionality but that Matter actually is (=) the Curvature of Spacetime. As such, the particle can easily unfold its curvature and go through both slits or even "Tunnel". I would be very honored if Sean would watch my video (Click link above ) and leave a comment in the comment box. Anyhow,, this was a pleasure. I will learn the equation and at least be aware of the math. You guys are great!

    I have forgotten most of my school maths , but somehow sort of get something out of Sean's lectures , but am still coming to terms with gravity as an effect of mass rather than the usual cause and effect situation . Others still seem to describe the standard model which has a graviton .

    Distance could be measured as a unit of time . The “speed” of light is distance/time… but distance is just a measure of time . Distance = x times Time….. so the speed of light turns out to be x times Time divided by Time, So the speed of light turns out to be just some constant which has nothing to do with our common concept of “speed”. With the right constant X we have the speed of light = XxTime, X being some extremely large number! ….. am I crazy?

    Saying that motion is only relative, means that it all just happens, and that there is absolutely no absolute cause that is responsible for creating this relativistic outcome. Thus it simply all happens by pure magic, is what they are saying. Why people keep on insisting, and others blindly accepting, that this "Effect without a Cause", is the real deal, is mind boggling to me. Endlessly they keep on saying that there is no such a thing as absolute motion. However, let us say that we have an Absolute 4D environment called Space-Time. Now lets say that everything within it is in constant Absolute motion, and that the magnitude of this Absolute motion, is identical to the magnitude of the motion of which light has as it moves across space. Now if you convert the outcome of these two Absolutes into equations, you quickly end up with the Special Relativity equations, and the Lorentz transformation equations. And so by taking the "Absolute" picture of what is going on into account, it only takes you a few minutes to derive all of the equations. Exclude those two absolutes, and then suddenly SR then becomes bizarre and very confusing. So why do they insist upon excluding the absolute cause, and thus confuse people ??

    But heavy objects fall faster than light objects because the heavy object attracts the earth towards itself more than a light thing, disregarding air resistance. If we drop an extremely heavy object, that object will move the earth towards itself much more than a light object. This will only happen when the test is done sequentially rather than in parallel.

      @@jayk5549 Scientism is the philosophical claim-which cannot be proven scientifically-that science is the only valid form of knowledge. Anyone who begins a sentence with the phrase, “Science says . . . ” is likely in the grip of scientism. Genuine scientists don’t talk like this. They begin sentences with phrases like, “The findings of this study suggest,” or “This meta-analysis concluded. . . .” Scientism, by contrast, is a religious and often a political ideology. “It has been evident for quite a while that science has become our time’s religion,” the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben observed, “the thing which people believe that they believe in.” When science becomes a religion-a closed and exclusionary belief system-we are dealing with scientism.

    I’ve been saying since 2013 that it seems extremely obvious that all electrons and photons are in orbit with a dark matter particle.
    Based on Fermilab and other recent findings, I now think electrons are made of an electron neutrino entangled in orbit with a dark matter muon neutrino, explaining their erratic orbits around nuclei and explaining superposition and uncertainty.
    I think photons are a pair of electrons entangled in orbit together in apparent an axial or helical polarizable wave-like movement depending on the direction of their rotation as they travel. This explains the double slit experiment for example and the speed of the rotation explains electromagnetic wavelengths (and visible colors, etc).
