The Modern Concept of Matter - Frank Wilczek

"We learned in the twentieth century that matter is a very different thing than everyday experience suggests. To understand it deeply, we need entirely new concepts. These concepts have brought a new level of beauty and coherence to fundamental physics, a foundation of our world-picture. They also invite new questions and ambitions."
On November 8, 2012, at a Stated Meeting held in Cambridge, Frank Wilczek, the Herman Feshbach Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, discussed the modern concept of substance and the nature of the Higgs particle following an introduction given by Jerome Friedman, Institute Professor and Professor of Physics Emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Frank Wilczek is the Herman Feshbach Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1993.
