Duncan Haldane is the Sherman Fairchild University Professor of Physics at Princeton University. In 2016, he, along with David J. Thouless and J. Michael Kosterlitz, received the Nobel Prize in Physics “for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter.” There are many remarkable things about Duncan Haldane, not least his devilishly delightful sense of humor and his ability to playfully take on the most complicated matters. I also admire his intellectual curiosity, humility, and persistence. He is deeply driven by a desire to understand the possibilities of strange—even borderline bizarre—new forms of matter. Despite it taking many decades for his prize-winning work to be confirmed, he never gave up on it. At the same time, though, he never assumed he was right or allowed himself to be swayed by the notion that his brilliance would lead to a revolution in physics—as it has. The very day he learned he'd won the Nobel Prize, he reminded us of what really matters: he went right back to teaching and researching.  Available on Amazon: Think Like a Nobel Prize Winner  About Professor Brian Keating: https://www.youtube.com/drbriankeating Podcast in iTunes https://simonsobservatory.org/ https://briankeating.com/ https://bkeating.physics.ucsd.edu/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/drbriankeating/

Today, I'm excited to welcome Professor Mike Kosterlitz to the podcast. Professor Kosterlitz won the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on topological phase transitions and exotic states of matter. He is a very close family friend by way of my Dad, who is his longtime colleague and lunch buddy. They talk physics over lunch every week, and I sometimes am lucky enough to join in, which is always an honor and a delight. On today's episode, we dive into his Nobel Prize-winning work with David Thouless, and how physics research can be similar to rock climbing. We discuss topics in applied math and using topology for describing phase transitions in two-dimensional materials, and in the pursuit of the theory of everything. We also explore the frontier of quantum computing, emerging technologies, and various trends in our world. During our conversation, we also talk about creativity, resilience, and the human condition. We hope you enjoy. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/daniel-ling/message

I det hundratrettonde avsnittet av podden pratar vi återigen om fördelarna med ADHD. Gäst är psykiatrikern, ekonomen och den bästsäljande författaren Anders Hansen, som i det här avsnittet berättar om de fördelar som ADHD för med sig, och hur man kan lära sig att dra nytta av dem fullt ut.Anders förklarar också varför människor med och utan ADHD kompletterar varandra och skapar synergier tillsammans, samt vilka av dragen som kan vara väldigt nyttiga för den som är entreprenör. Christian frågar också ifall ADHD-mediciner hämmar kreativiteten eller inte, och hur fenomenet hyperfokusering fungerar.

Is a basic education enough to make informed investment decisions, or do folks with higher education tend to make better Investment decisions? Nobel Prize winner and Brown University Professor J. Michael Kosterlitz reflects on how education is the key to making positive change in all aspects of life… including finances. Listen to learn how researching superfluidity generated a new understanding of physics, and more importantly, how to perfect your own individual thought process. Professor Kosterlitz admits his scientific work is hard to understand, but it is the idea behind the work that really matters. Professors Kosterlitz explains that in order to apply an idea or a process, you first need to understand how it came to be. This concept is critical in understanding your personal investment choices.

British Professor David Thouless won this year's Nobel Prize for contributions to the field of topology. Two other British physicists, Professor J. Michael Kosterlitz and Professor Duncan Haldane shared the award. Of course the physics is rather complicated, you don't win a Nobel prize for discovering something obvious, but put simply, David Thouless worked out a way of predicting how a material will behave using maths. In this programme, though, we'll focus on the man himself. Who is David Thouless and how did he spend his time when he wasn't thinking about equations? We'll hear about the treats he liked as a school boy during the war, about family holidays from his son, Michael Thouless, himself a Professor of Engineering and we'll also hear that things in the real world didn't often go as smoothly as planned...

Fysiikan Nobelilla palkitaan fyysikot Michael Kosterlitz, David Thouless sekä Duncan Haldane. Uudet nobelistit ovat ottaneet käyttöön matematiikan osa-alueen topologian, jonka avulla he ovat kuvanneet suprajohteiden, supranesteiden ja ohuiden magneettisten kalvojen fysiikkaa. Heidän kehittämiään teorioita voidaan hyödyntää elektroniikassa, suprajohteiden kehittämisessä ja kvanttitietokoneessa. Michael Kosterlitz on haastateltavana ohjelmassa. Hän on Aalto-yliopistossa vierailevana professorina ja kertoo ensitunnelmistaan, elämästään ja suhteestaan fysiikkaan. Nobelistien töistä kertovat myös professori Tapio Ala-Nissilä ja professori Päivi Törmä Aalto-yliopistosta. Ohjelman loppuosa on varattu lokakuun tähtitaivaalle, joka tarjoaa nähtäväksi planeettoja, hohtavan Linnunradan ja Orionidien tähdenlentoparven. Tähtitaivaasta kertoo professori Markku Poutanen Paikkatietokeskuksesta. Ohjelman toimittaa Sisko Loikkanen.

Scientists call this mysterious event cosmological inflation -- the problem is they have no real idea what it actually is – and what physical mechanisms drove it. *More mystery surrounding an already strange star Last month we reported how astronomers think they may finally have solved the mystery surrounding a weird erratically flickering and dimming star -- whose strange behaviour -- sparked speculation that it could have been our first sign of an advanced alien civilization. However, a new study has reopened the mystery. *Saturn’s moon Dione has a subsurface ocean New data from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft has confirmed the existence of another subsurface ocean on a moon in the outer solar system. Cassini has discovered the ocean under the surface of the Saturnian moon Dione. *Nobel Prize in physics goes to topology in materials This year’s Nobel prize for physics has gone to David Thouless, Duncan Haldane and Michael Kosterlitz for revealing the secrets of exotic matter. The trio used advanced mathematical methods to study unusual phases, or states, of matter, such as superconductors, superfluids and thin magnetic films. If you're enjoying SpaceTime, please help out by sharing and telling your friends.

Siguiendo con nuestra serie sobre los Premios Nobel ahora le toca el turno al de Física, que ha sido concedido a David Thouless, Duncan Haldane y Michael Kosterlitz, por el desarrollo de modelos que permitieron entender los cambios de estado en materiales cuánticos, y que nos descubrieron que esos cambios de estado están relacionados con cambios en la topología de los materiales. En este capítulo os explicamos qué quiere decir esto de "cambio de estado" y por qué es diferente en estos materiales y en los materiales convencionales.

Die ander helfte word gesamentlik aan Duncan Haldane en Michael Kosterlitz toegeken. Hulle ontvang die prys vir die teoretiese ontdekkings van die topologiese fase-oorgange en topologiese fases van stowwe. Die Dekaan van Navorsing en Nagraadse Studies by die Department Natuurwetenskappe aan die Universiteit van Johannesburg, prof. Andre Strydom, sê dit is die mees opwindende tyd in die vakrigting. Hy sê baie nuwe ontdekkings word gemaak wat verreikende gevolge vir die mensdom kan hê.
