- Here we present to you the first result of the So-Close project. One of those jewels that you don't find very often. Professor Paul C. Canfield discusses about condensed matter physics, its meaning, its many ramifications within science, its impact on society, etc. Enjoy it.
The So-Close project:
We are a group of young condensed matter physicists of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid with a strong interest in outreach and public dissemination of science. Recently we won a grant of the American Physical Society to perform a series of videos about the wonders of our field of research.

The project is called "Condensed Matter Physics: so close and such a stranger"

In this video we present the first chapter of the So-Close project. Professor Paul C. Canfield (Ames Laboratory and Iowa State University) discusses about condensed matter physics, its meaning, its many ramifications within science, its impact on society, etc. Enjoy!

This man really compared Physics to strip clubs. A man of culture we stan!
People always be asking, “but what is quantum physics actually used for, yeah it’s cool but has anything actually been produced.” Condensed matter physics gives a long sigh, and answers, “yeah, I mean what is a transistor anyway.”
Never considered condensed matter physics fascinating before this video
This man talks like drunk me after i've been asked "For what do you need physics anyways?" at a party.
Thanks for the discussion Paul. Fascinating applications in condensed matter physics
really great insight as I consider what research I want to do long term
I want to touch :). We all do man , we all do!
Thank you for this video!
I like the metaphor, hahaha!
Thank you
It's nice speech.
Thank you sir ❤❤❤

Is anyone familiar with Euler’s or anyone else studying this variation of Euler’s contain column studies?
The video and white paper describes the mechanical properties related my unique variation of Euler’s Contain Column studies.
It shows how materials (representing fields) naturally respond to induced stresses in a “quantized“ manor.
This process, unlike harmonic oscillators can lead to formation of stable structures.
The quantized responses closely models the behaviors known as the Quantum Wave Function as described in modern physics.
The effect has been used to make light weight structures and shock mitigating/recoiled reduction systems.
The model shows the known requirement of exponential load increase and the here-to-for unknown collapse of resistance during transition, leading to the very fast jump to the next energy levels.

look but don't touch :))))
u made my day man :D
Feynman went to too many strip shows so he got cancer
to be rude head ass, comparing physics to strip clubs, I love this guy

Two things shock us into silence, the constructive power of techniques and technology and the corrupt mindless indifference of its abuse. We were warned of the expectations of future shock, how's it going?
So is the intuition, that you first start off by the property you would like to have and then you would design the math, which leads you to a specific kind of material?
Not really, that would be very ideal but practically impossible. As far as I know, materials with certain useful and strange properties are discovered experimentally - semi-conductors, super-conductors, super-fluids, Mott-insulators etc. - which prompt the development of new theories to explain these behaviours. Once these theories are tested and validated, you can use them to fine tune and optimize these materials for given technical requirements. Think of properly doping semi-conductors with the correct metals, or striving to gain super-conductivity at maximal possible temperatures.
not sure i get it
👍👍👍👍👌👌👌
I am convinced that understanding ultracold condensed matter, black holes and gravitational waves is the key to unlock the theory of quantum gravity. It would be nice to have a better conceptual description of condensed matter physics so anyone could grasp easily the basic principles. Anyone has good recommendations?
I agree that high energy physics is dead now
@@AliReza-cx7wg come again mister?
@@AliReza-cx7wg why do you say that? I’m curious

You are not in touch with physics community. I am part of it. It looks weird to you people who like science story but for us the research talks first
Condensed matter... zindabad...😂❤️
Quantum Mechanics: “I’m the strangest and most difficult to grasp subject in science!”
Condensed Matter Physics: “Hold my beer …”
That's not how this works. Quantum mechanics is a foundational subject that is applied in condensed matter physics. They are not completely different. A lot of the times, weirdness of Quantum physics is what makes condensed matter physics interesting!
@@anirocks11 You are absolutely correct. I was just pointing out that most people associate QM with being that "most difficult" scientific domain that a person could elect to study -- those same people have probably never even heard of condensed matter physics.
@@trol4889 Points awarded.
I never said they were mutually exclusive, and while nobody really studies it for a living, I think everyone who has studied condensed matter physics has studied QM for at least an hour or two. 😎
Still, points awarded.
Edit: This thread serves as a really good example of why there are very VERY few people in the field of physics comedy - but, I pose this hypothesis: that, given enough time, I’m one of those physics comedians will eventually see this comment and reply to it with some sort of witty bit. It might be about whether or not that’s truly a “field” or not - or a tensor pun - or a dirty curvature joke - or maybe some derivative of the old “work it out with a pencil” math joke. But, it will happen. 😎
😆
dude..i dont get it
Seriously?
Pay attention in school next time.
@1:40 the whole world? EVEN CHICKEN?
yeah, condensed matter physics answers biophysical phenomena happening in organisms including your daily chicken ;)
this physicist looks too much like Brain Huskey, I can't take him seriously
Where does magnetism come from?
Electricity.
The first source as etched in stone and the works of the people who handed us the modern technical age that the Ancient Greeks rejected as self-deceit.
Man made nonsense today instead of thinking in progress.
I cant understand what u r trying to convey? Care to explain?
You're the one who speaking nonsense mate do u even know the real source of magnetism and electricity bro ?
@@adalinee5720 Of course. It has left its mark everywhere from the microcosm to macrocosm bromandude.
