Tim Maudlin is Professor of Philosophy at NYU and Founder and Director of the John Bell Institute for the Foundations of Physics. This is Tim's seventh appearance on the show. He last appeared on episode 210 with David Albert for a discussion of the measurement problem in quantum mechanics. In this episode, Tim and Robinson talk about Albert Einstein's theory of special relativity, explaining it from the ground up and elucidating some common misconceptions. More particularly, they get into Einstein's magnificent mind, how special relativity displaced the theory of the ether, absolute and relative space, the speed and nature of light, the possibility of time travel, relativistic quantum mechanics, and more. If you're interested in the foundations of physics, then please check out the JBI, which is devoted to providing a home for research and education in this important area.

Harry and Rafe conclude the discussion around coming to understand the nature of light.  In this episode they discuss some of the consequences of Einstein's Special Relativity and, in particular, how it implies that a clock moving very very fast appears, to a stationary observer, to be running slow.  

Harry and Rafe continue the discussion around coming to understand the nature of light.  In this episode they discuss the concepts of Einstein's Special Relativity, the basic concept that ALL laws of physics must be consistent in any inertial reference frame.The outcome of this statement is that the measurement of the speed of light (c=3x10^8 m/s) is the same for ANY observer, at any time in ANY inertial reference frame.  And the concept of "sitting still" has no meaning, since ALL motion is relative; there is no reference frame for the universe --- unless, of course, you are above time and space...

Light, a creation of God, assists us to physically appreciate the omnipresence of God.

Harry and Rafe continue the discussion around coming to understand the nature of light.  In this episode they discuss the properties of waves (interferences and such) and how the nature of light is like the nature of sound except for the fact that light waves seem to be able to travel without any medium to support them.  In the end, our friend Albert Michelson will again show up to finally put the ether to rest setting the stage another Albert to come to the front with Special Relativity.In true Buf fashion, the conversation drifts to things like the teaching of mathematics in high schools and to donuts; the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Sabine Hossenfelder discusses the physics of… dead grandmothers? Sabine Hossenfelder investigates life's big questions through the lens of physics, particularly Einstein's theory of special relativity. She highlights the relativity of simultaneity, which states that the notion of "now" is subjective and dependent on the observer. This leads to the block universe concept, where past, present, and future all exist simultaneously, making the past just as real as the present. Hossenfelder also emphasizes that the fundamental laws of nature preserve information rather than destroy it. Although information about a deceased person disperses, it remains an integral part of the universe. This idea of timeless existence, derived from the study of fundamental physics, offers profound spiritual insights that can be difficult to internalize in our everyday lives. As a result, Hossenfelder encourages people to trust the scientific method and accept the profound implications of these discoveries, which may reshape our understanding of life and existence. As a physicist, Hossenfelder trusts the knowledge gained through the scientific method and acknowledges the challenge of integrating these deep insights into our daily experiences. By contemplating these profound concepts, we can potentially expand our understanding of reality and our place within it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters for easier navigation:- 0:00 Is your dead grandma still alive? 1:25 Before Einstein… and after 2:53 Relativity of simultaneity, explained 5:14 Spacetime and the ‘block universe' 6:10 Eternal existence: The conservation of quantum information 8:22 “I know it sounds crazy, but…” -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Big Think | Smarter Faster™ ► Big Think The leading source of expert-driven, educational content.

This week we delve into the Eldritch world of HP Lovecraft and try and decode hidden magickal lessons. Mario Garza from Symbolic Studies from joins me to grill ‘Polaria' author WH Müller on his book ‘Polaria'. This week we discuss: Did Lovecraft encode a secret magickal lesson into each of his stories, what is ‘The Mystic Polar Tradition', Why was the Polar tradition hidden, and much more. Check out Mario's site here, and his YouTube channel here Main theme by Simon Smerdon (Mothboy) Music bed by chriszabriskie.com Good luck finding this book for less than £1500, check it on Amazon here WH Müller Bio: Born in 1964, I gained access to Kabbalah and various occult doctrines related to it through my interest in the American author HP Lovecraft. My first book was published in 1992 bearing the title “Lovecraft – Treasurer of the Forbidden”. In 1994 I published the first occult exegesis and translation of the Babylonian Epic of Creation in “Primordial Light” which was substantially enlarged in its second edition “Fiat Nox” in 1994. In the 1990s I was also a patron member of the British Museum Society. Besides, I always worked as a translator and was for example responsible for the first Nicholas-Roerich-biography by Jacqueline Decter. Further translations in the 1990s included works by WB Yeats and EA Wallis Budge. In 1996 I authored “Polaria – The Gift of the White Stone” on Lovecraft and Western Occultism which was published in the US. In 2001 I founded my own publishing company with two books on esoteric Traditionalism (Guénon) and related subjects of Alchemy as well as the first German translations of some of Suhrawardi's most eminent Sufi writings. After having positively identified Einstein's famous equation of Special Relativity in Kabbalah, I published “NecroYoga” in 2011 containing the Kabbalistic “threshold-equation” later termed “Moshe-Formula”, and partly based on a so-called “Babylon-Workout” on Kabbalah, Special Relativity and Black Hole ‘Physics which had appeared previously in Germany. My most recent translations include Nevill Drury's biography on the life and work of the Australian artist and occultist Rosaleen Norton and Stephen Flower's “Lords of the Left-Hand Path”. “Antarktos: Understanding the Age of Rebellion” in which I write comprehensively on the “real” secrets of Antarctica in connection with the ongoing conflict of the Old Ones vs. the Elder Ones, E.A. Poe's secret messages in “The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym” and further revelations from Lovecraft's occult heritage, is due for publication soon.

Tonight we explore the strange reality of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and what it means for 3 dimensional beings born into a 4 dimensional Universe. It predicts our birth from a singularity in an expanding Universe, the contraction of space at the speed of light, and both black holes and the infinite time dilation at their horizon. It's bizarre that space truly compresses and time actually slows down deep inside gravitational wells and near the speed of light. We literally observe supernovae billions of light years away exploding at half their normal speed. So let's find out about the history and basics of relativity.   ▸ Want to leave a tip or connect?:    Video credits: Carrol and Ostlie (textbook I used): https://amzn.to/3QtiABm TNG Simulations https://www.tng-project.org/media/ NASA/STSci/ESA Davis and Lineweaver (2003) https://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0310808 Nolan, C.

Einstein's theory of special relativity defines time and space operationally, that is to say, in terms of the actions performed to measure them. This is analogous to the constructivist spirit of classical geometry. Transcript Oh no, we are chained to a wall! Aaah! This is going to mess up our geometry big time.

Today we are going to wrap up our series on the fluoride today with learning  effective strategies to reduce fluoride toxicity, and how to remove the industrial chemical fluoride from our tap water. Because the industrial fluoride additive is not only in 75 percent of the US water supply but also contaminates air, soil, food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and dental products, we'll also be learning how to eliminate avoidable sources of fluoride. My guest Joining me is Richard Sauerheber, research scientist and former National Institutes of Health principal investigator and has a Ph.D., Chemistry. He has published 65 papers and books, including six on fluoride toxicology, and  2 on the Covid pandemic Richard has done extensive research on the chemistry of fluoride and best practices for reducing toxicity, minimizing exposure, and removing it from tap water. He's also petitioned the Food and Drug Administration to ban fluoridation, which ended up being a book-long size petition done over an 8 year period 2007-2015 Upon receiving his petition the agency ruled that the water fluoridation program in the US is the responsibility of the EPA under the Toxic Substances Control Act and did nothing. How mineral content and solubility and Ph level affect fluoride toxicity. What role calcium and other minerals play in the toxicity of fluoride 3. How hard water vs soft water affect fluoride toxicity 4. The best ways to filter fluoride out of our tap water 5. Foods that have a substantial amount of fluoride and which ones to avoid or minimize in our diets 6. Pharmaceuticals -a source of the chemical fluoride. What we need to know about fluorides in pharmaceuticals and which ones we should avoid 7. What we need to know about fluoridated dental products and alternatives to a fluoridated toothpastes 8.

An introduction to the conceptual and mathematical framework of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. We begin by considering the key insight of gravity as a geometric phenomenon, and how the curvature of spacetime by matter explains the equality of inertial and gravitational mass. We then discuss the mathematics of general relativity, including geodesics, differential manifolds, covariant derivatives, the metric tensor, Christoffel symbols, the Riemann curvature tensor, the Ricci tensor, and the energy-momentum tensor. The episode concludes with a derivation and explanation of the significance of Einstein's Field Equations. Recommended pre-listening is Episodes 114 and 115: Special Relativity 1 and 2.  If you enjoyed the podcast please consider supporting the show by making a PayPal donation or becoming a Patreon supporter. https://www.patreon.com/jamesfodor https://www.paypal.me/ScienceofEverything

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The special nature of special relativity, published by adamShimi on January 9, 2023 on LessWrong. I honestly thought that both theories of relativity were theories of gravitation. Special and general relativity, the latter being the generalized version of the latter. That makes sense, right? Then I started actually digging into special relativity. I studied the original annus mirabilis paper, entitled “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies”. Yes, the title was the first clue, although I didn't see it at the time. The second clue lied in a conspicuous absence: neither gravity nor gravitation is mentioned in the paper. Not even once. No, instead, Einstein spends 5 sections on kinematics (which is basically about geometrically deducing the value of some parameters of the mechanical system from others given as initial conditions); then he applies his kinematics to electromagnetism. This is when I finally realized that special relativity had nothing to do with gravity. General relativity, that's a theory of gravity, one you can compare with Newtonian Mechanics in a variety of ways. But special relativity is not a theory in this sense; that's the wrong type signature. No, special relativity looks far more like a meta conservation law. Because instead of conserving a quantity, special relativity assert that the laws of physics themselves are invariant by specific transformations called Lorentz transformations. This is stated by Einstein itself in his popular account of his theories (Relativity: The Special and General Theory, Chapter 14): Once in possession of the Lorentz transformation, however, we can combine this with the principle of relativity, and sum up the theory thus: [...] Or in brief: General laws of nature are co-variant with respect to Lorentz transformations. This is a definite mathematical condition that the theory of relativity demands of a natural law, and in virtue of this, the theory becomes a valuable heuristic aid in the search for general laws of nature. If a general law of nature were to be found which did not satisfy this condition, then at least one of the two fundamental assumptions of the theory would have been disproved. Although the transformations had been discovered independently earlier (by Lorentz notably), Einstein rederived this constraint on laws of nature from his two principles: That the laws of physics are invariant by uniform (so not accelerated) motion of the reference frame (technically that they're the same in all inertial reference frames) That the constancy of the speed of light in the void is such a law of physics In classical mechanics, 2 contradicted 1 because the addition of velocities meant that light coming out of a moving source would have to move faster or slower than the constant speed of light. But since Einstein assumed both principles as strong phenomenological laws, he looked for a way to reconcile them. And Lorentz transformations give just that: they transform coordinates from a stationary reference frame to a uniformly moving one while maintaining the constancy of the speed of light in the new frame. Which they do by contracting the lengths and dilating time, two ideas familiar to anyone who has read pop physics books. But more than the precise mechanics of the Lorentz transformation, what I find fascinating here is that what I thought was an imperfect theory of gravitation actually proved to be an (imperfect) conservation law, a constraint on the laws of nature. What can you do with such a constraint? I see two main applications, both of which were pursued by Einstein himself and other physicists at the time. Test on existing theories As explained in the paper, Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism passed this test: it was already a relativistic theory.

This is: The special nature of special relativity, published by adamShimi on January 9, 2023 on LessWrong. I honestly thought that both theories of relativity were theories of gravitation. Special and general relativity, the latter being the generalized version of the latter. That makes sense, right? Then I started actually digging into special relativity. I studied the original annus mirabilis paper, entitled “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies”. Yes, the title was the first clue, although I didn't see it at the time. The second clue lied in a conspicuous absence: neither gravity nor gravitation is mentioned in the paper. Not even once. No, instead, Einstein spends 5 sections on kinematics (which is basically about geometrically deducing the value of some parameters of the mechanical system from others given as initial conditions); then he applies his kinematics to electromagnetism. This is when I finally realized that special relativity had nothing to do with gravity. General relativity, that's a theory of gravity, one you can compare with Newtonian Mechanics in a variety of ways. But special relativity is not a theory in this sense; that's the wrong type signature. No, special relativity looks far more like a meta conservation law. Because instead of conserving a quantity, special relativity assert that the laws of physics themselves are invariant by specific transformations called Lorentz transformations. This is stated by Einstein itself in his popular account of his theories (Relativity: The Special and General Theory, Chapter 14): Once in possession of the Lorentz transformation, however, we can combine this with the principle of relativity, and sum up the theory thus: [...] Or in brief: General laws of nature are co-variant with respect to Lorentz transformations. This is a definite mathematical condition that the theory of relativity demands of a natural law, and in virtue of this, the theory becomes a valuable heuristic aid in the search for general laws of nature. If a general law of nature were to be found which did not satisfy this condition, then at least one of the two fundamental assumptions of the theory would have been disproved. Although the transformations had been discovered independently earlier (by Lorentz notably), Einstein rederived this constraint on laws of nature from his two principles: That the laws of physics are invariant by uniform (so not accelerated) motion of the reference frame (technically that they're the same in all inertial reference frames) That the constancy of the speed of light in the void is such a law of physics In classical mechanics, 2 contradicted 1 because the addition of velocities meant that light coming out of a moving source would have to move faster or slower than the constant speed of light. But since Einstein assumed both principles as strong phenomenological laws, he looked for a way to reconcile them. And Lorentz transformations give just that: they transform coordinates from a stationary reference frame to a uniformly moving one while maintaining the constancy of the speed of light in the new frame. Which they do by contracting the lengths and dilating time, two ideas familiar to anyone who has read pop physics books. But more than the precise mechanics of the Lorentz transformation, what I find fascinating here is that what I thought was an imperfect theory of gravitation actually proved to be an (imperfect) conservation law, a constraint on the laws of nature. What can you do with such a constraint? I see two main applications, both of which were pursued by Einstein himself and other physicists at the time. Test on existing theories As explained in the paper, Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism passed this test: it was already a relativistic theory. Classical mechanics on the other hand contradicted it direc...

Science and maths educator Selwyn Holland shares a lesson on physicist Albert Einstein and how his theories of relativity significantly changed our understanding of time and gravity with related findings about the speed of light and the concept of spacetime. You'll hear about Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity (and with it non-inertial motion, constant speed and time dilation) and his Theory of General Relativity (and with it gravity, acceleration and the curvature of spacetime) and how his famous equation E=mc2 fits in this story. Selwyn is also enthusiastic about Einstein the person and his humanitarian efforts and influence in the scientific community. This episode covers some of the historical context of his work, his contributions to debate about quantum mechanics and atomic theory, and his prediction of gravitational waves which was only recently confirmed.

Bad Dad Peter has recently spent some time with his children in the USA and having sampled the finest our cousins from the other side of the Atlantic have to offer, he thought he'd recognise the high watermark of American culture, the film offerings of the Disney company, for this week's show. Our top 5 Memorable Disney Moments features a broad spectrum of Walt's offerings. It would be easy to dismiss the latest Disney Pixar movie as being a shameless TOY STORY cash-in and just like any normal adult my enthusiasm for a Buzz Lightyear origin story was virtually non-existent, so when the reviews came in and decreed almost universally that LIGHTYEAR was mediocre my expectations were lower than a crypto bros credit score. When Space Ranger Buzz Lightyear (Chris Evans) accidentally maroons the 1200 strong crew of The Turnip on an uncharted planet, he will stop at nothing to save their lives, even if it costs him his own. Buzz learning that he cannot fix everything and that he has to be willing to accept help is a meaningful  character arc allowing the movie to discuss its themes of male vulnerability, what it means to inspire someone, how to respond to mistakes in life and wraps all that up in a plot which features an interesting use of real world physics like the Theory of Special Relativity. Enjoyed by all of our kids, this was a surprise hit. Whilst there is an extremely unpleasant Urban Dictionary definition pertaining to STEAMBOAT WILLIE, which involves parts of the male anatomy, cigarettes and locomotive impressions, it's the slightly less scatological 1928 animated debut of Mickey and Minnie Mouse we're chatting about this week. It's a Disney classic so of course it features brutal animal violence which we know you all enjoy.We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it.

Enter my mind and see the universe through the eyes of a madman and know that Einstein's conclusion in Special Relativity that mass increases with velocity, and the Standard Model's misimpression that the Electron, the Muon, and the Tau particles are different particles are both wrong for the exact same reason.  Only understanding quantum gravity, the gravity of mass energy in time--akin to General Relativity as the gravity of mass energy in space, and knowing the nature of Dark Matter, reveals the truth in the mind of madness.

We can thank Albert Einstein's math teacher for the concept of this program. In 1908 Professor HERMANN MINKOWSKI presented an interpretation of Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity that unified time and the three dimensions of physical space, into a single four-dimensional continuum called "spacetime." So physicists began with three-dimensional space, added the dimension of time, and came up with four-dimensional space. Ambient musicians have done just the opposite. All music exists in the dimension of time: ambient electronic music lives in time, and creates the impression of virtual space in us. On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a four-dimensional journey, on a program called SPACETIME. Music is by GLOBAL COMMUNICATION, LEMONGRASS, TIME TRAVELER, THE GREAT NORTHERN, BLUETECH, S7VEN, ALPHA WAVE MOVEMENT, and ALTUS.

Relativity is the notion that the laws of physics are the same everywhere. We here on Earth obey the same laws of light and gravity as someone in a far-off corner of the universe.

All the time.On average, every square centimeter of Earth sees a muon about once a minute.  While that might not seem like a lot, if you consider your personal space. Say, about square meter around you - you know, 10 square feet . Over 160 muons pass through your personal space per second! Per second!Those muons coming form the upper atmosphere. They are the debris left over from the constant bombardment Earth experiences from high energy cosmic rays.If only there was a way to see them.Do you remember when I said that a particle physicist will look for particles WHEREVER they can find them? Well, before weather balloons, before particle colliders, there were cloud chambers.Cloud chambers are boxes full of super saturated vapor or some kind. Any little disturbance will cause that vapor to condense, as clouds do up in the sky.High energy particles blasting through a cloud chamber leave tracks. Little clouds form around the path of the particle, just like the contrails of a jet flying through the sky.The muon and the positron were both discovered this way!Cloud chambers are fun because you can build them yourself at home! The main thing you need is a sustained temperature gradient and tiny bit of very pure isopropol alcohol.We'll link to two great examples of DIY cloud chamber designs in the show notes.Building a cloud chamber at home is a great way to come face to face with the fact muons - the debris from cosmic rays - are passing through us all the time.The Atmosphere as a Muon FilterThe magnetic field generated by the Earth's core protects us from many incident particles from space. Especially all that plasma in the solar wind.But those high energy cosmic rays blast straight through the magnetic field. It's just not strong enough to contain them.Our upper atmosphere is our next layer of defense. Cosmic rays collide with its molecules tens of miles above the Earth, creating a shower of debris that itself can be miles across. In some sense, the atmosphere serves as a filter, converting all those particles like protons and pions into muons. Muons comprise the bulk of what we see down here at the surface. Muons are unstable particles. They decay to electrons after about 2.2 microseconds. This means that while many muons make to the ground, not all of them do. The higher you are above sea level, the more muons you're likely to see.At 10,000 ft above sea level, this number can triple! Given that commercial airline flights typically occur above 40,000 ft, it's important to realize that flying exposes you to more Cosmogenic Muons.Fortunately for you frequent flyers, the extra does radiation exposure is still a very small amount of radiation exposure! The International Commission on Radiological Protection has well established professional limits to protect even commercial flight crews from exposure to all those cosmogenic muons.Long Lived MuonsDespite the atmospheric filter, those Cosmogenic Muons are still traveling really, really fast. Like 99.9 percent of the speed of light fast. Muons moving that fast don't behave like you'd expect. For one thing, they take far longer than they should to decay.How do we know that?As you might recall from their eponymous episode, muons only live for about 2.2 microseconds. That's 2.2 millonths of a second. Even traveling near the speed of light, that's simply not enough time to get from the upper atmosphere to anywhere near the surface of the Earth. That's a bit over 9 miles - or 15 kilometers. It takes light about 50 microseconds to travel that far.Muons that make it to Earth, then, live over 22 times as long as they should.Why that happens - what causes the muons to live so long - requires a small digression on the theory of relativity. On Special RelativityAs they say, Nothing travels faster than the speed of light. Which is true, at least, in outer space and to some extent in the air around us. You see, it's not so much that LIGHT is the fastest thing around. It's that the universe itself has a maximum possible speed - a speed limit, if you like - which is just shy of 300 million meters per second.When left to its own devices, light - or any particle with zero mass - travels at that speed.That universal speed limit is just a fact of life, but we don't notice is much because a typical human moves at about 1 meter per second. Not 300 million meters per second.But having a speed limit like the speed of light leads to some pretty strange paradoxes.For example: you cannot race a photon. Photons, you might recall, are particles of light.If you ran towards a photon, the photon sill still move away from you at the speed of light.If you drove towards the photon at 100 miles and hour, the photon will still move away from you at the speed of light.If you jumped into a supersonic fighter just and chased a photon, the photon will still move away from you at the speed of light.Even if you built and launched in a rocket ship so fast you were traveling at 200 million meters per second - you know, 67% of the speed of light - and chased that photon, the photon will still move away from you at the speed of light.At least in the vacuum of space, light always moves at the speed of light. No matter how fast you are going. Frustrating, huh? Maddening even. But that's how the universe enforces its speed limit. No matter how hard you try, you can never catch up.But how could this be? What weirdness could explain this paradox?Well speeds don't really add like normal numbers do. This is Einstein's famous theory of Special Relativity. There's re some technical details and nuances of course, but essentially, relativity says that light always moves at the speed of light, relative to you.The implication is that EVERYONE, ANYONE sees light moving at the same speed, no matter how fast they're moving.That same universal speed limit, just shy of 300 million meters per second.The way the universe affords this is by exchanging your perception of time for a perception of distance.The faster you go, the LONGER the distance you have to travel. Your perception of one meter is LONGER than someone going slower than you. That's why is so hard to get up to light speed. The faster you go, the further you have to go to catch up. Of course, to account for this cheat, the universe also shortens your sense of time. So yeah you have to go further, but you don't really notice that because time has slowed down for you. But the net result is even “doubling your speed” only really inches you closer to the speed of light.In a VERY real sense, motion trades TIME for SPACE. At least that's how the mathematics of special relativity work out. In some sense, trading time for space is literally what it means to be in motion.If that's too heavy to take in, don't worry about it. If it excites you, AWESOME. I'll link to some further reading on special relativity in the show notes. But in either case, all you need to know at this point is that those cosmogenic muons, those particles screaming in at over 99% of the speed of light, have traded a LOT of their sense of time for space. So their internal clocks ticks much, much, much slower. Well over twenty times slower! Which is why they take so long to decay.In other words, the cosmogenic muons all around us near the surface of the earth - the things you can detect with your own cloud chamber at home - are a testament to the peculiarity of Einstein's theory of special relativity.ConclusionMuons, borne of debris from cosmic rays collisions in the upper atmosphere, travel at outrageous speeds to surround us here on the surface of the Earth. They travel so fast that Einstein's theory of special relativity directly manifests itself in the very existence of those muons.Other particles created in those cosmic rays collisions - like pions or lambda baryons - are also moving at outrageous speeds, but since they contain quarks, they communicate via all of nature's forces. They are much more susceptible to not only decay but collisions with other particles. Far more susceptible than the muons are.Even the humble electron, when traveling at relativistic speeds, will quickly lose much of its energy via the brehmstrahlung radiation, which depends inversely on its small mass. Muons, being heavy, don't have this problem. So this is what we mean when we say the atmosphere behaves like an energy filter, catching all that cosmic ray collision energy, all except for those muons. They're fast, heavy and don't interact as frequently.But they do eventually interact. With the molecules in our body. In the rocks. Or even, in the snow and ice the covers the high mountain tops and polar regions of our Earth. In our concluding episode in this mini-series, we'll explore how cosmogenic muons have helped scientists understand the history of Earth's atmosphere and the associated implications for its climate.

I could've more predictably started this post with a quote from F.A. Hayek, well known in economics for what is concisely named “the knowledge problem,” which he lays out in his short writing, “The Use of Knowledge in Society.” But what fun is predictability? And, if it's knowledge-problem quotes you desire, an entire chapter of this There's No Free Lunch book is dedicated to the subject. I took more of the “roundabout” path into wealth management (via engineering rather than economics), but – from my non-economist perspective – the knowledge problem can be summarized as follows: it's impossible to make good decisions without complete information, and NO ONE has complete information because everyone's circumstances vary so significantly. The POTUS cannot possibly make broad (macro) decisions that are in the best interest of every US citizen at their particular (micro) level. But even making decisions at the local level is not going to be the best thing for every person. There are always tradeoffs. However, the beauty of free markets is that local decisions made with local, specific knowledge can aggregate to good overall outcomes for society. When I first learned of the knowledge problem (which, I assure you was much later in life than it probably should have been), it screamed “RELATIVITY” to me, and that brings us to today's quote and Einstein. While Isaac Newton did a relatively (

Star Wars continues to be the most successful movie franchise in history. The movies are great fun, the story telling is excellent, thoroughly based on the Hero's Journey and the characters are some of the most beloved in cinema history. Whether your favorite scene is the from jump into hyperspace, the climactic lightsaber duel between Obi Wan Kenobi and Darth Vadar, Vadar intoning “I am your father”, or the destruction of the Death Star they all still resonate today. But what of the science of Star Wars. Are these great scenes and effects even possible? Do they violate the laws of physics and nature as we understand them today? Join Tom Fox and Dr. Ben Locwin, a healthcare executive, who in addition to his medical expertise is a degreed astrophysicist, as the look behind some of the most exciting scenes in Star Wars to look at the portrayal of science in Star Wars. In Episode 1, they consider traveling in hyperspace. Some of the topics covered are: 1. The visual effect of light bending.  2. Does traveling in hyperspace violated Einstein's Law of Special Relativity.  3. What would traveling in hyperspace do to the human body? 4. How does one navigate in hyperspace. 

Jim and Randy talk about how special relativity might be amended to incorporate a minimum length scale.  Such scales are common in quantum gravity theories, and in the limit where both QM and GR are less important, QG should induce first order corrections to SR.  We then talk about how these corrections seem to lead to unreasonable paradoxes.Show Notes: http://frontiers.physicsfm.com/62

Last week, we were in New Hampshire celebrating Christmas with family. Now, I've got to tell you that I love handmade gifts and this year my eleven-year-old niece Anya made me a gift that I absolutely love. It's a canvas board which, for those of you who may bot know is basically a piece of mat board wrapped in canvas. This particular piece measures 3×9 inches and on it she painted the phrase “My Instrument” with a little camera in between the two words. What I found so amazing about it—besides than the fact that it was completely unexpected—was how much I love the typography, partially because it's just so different from the way I see. I'm typically more Helvetica or Futura and this is reaching into David Carson territory.Subscribe: iTunes | Pocket Casts | Overcast | RSSThe MY INStrUment painting that my niece Anya made for me.Lewis Rossignol is a terrific illustrator from Portland, Maine whose mixed media portraiture is fantastic.
