Carrol has the voice of a hairstylist, a male ballet dancer, or a catholic priest if you get my drift
He has a great voice. Carrol is one of the most respected science communicators and scientific theorists in his field.
Sean at his best. Some new and interesting facts about Einstein's gravitas. A stepped-up version of Lex, too. Good clip.
Thank you for crediting Minkowski
Lex's small hands makes this video better.
Einstein published 3 papers all in 1905 - Light as particles and not just waves, special relativity, and proof that atoms exist.
Death is a black hole for the soul
Sean Carroll reminds me of the dad in Happiness (1998)
So special relativity is based on the Michelson-Morley experiment (1887), which found that the speed of light is the same for all observers. This seems ridiculous based on classical intuition, but once you've accepted it as confirmed fact, SR follows from it directly. Einstein's genius was being completely open-minded about following confirmed truths to their logical conclusions.
Nice shirt
Could someone elaborate on why it takes less time when you zig zag from point A to point B?
It is odd to me that it is considered an accomplishment that they got rid of the aether, but then immediately replaced it with space-time and quantum fields. It seems like the aether never went away. They just got better at describing it.
Its good to 9.45- i sort of got it, then im out can someone explain the explanation
curious, how much information does a black hole contain, just epically compressed.. The univers's "HardDrives"
Theorem 7: The vacuum expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor in general relativity is proportional to the metric tensor.
I think this gent is the bass-vocal in rockapella
Matter(s)=matter matters
I'm still with the doubters on Minkowski's contribution. Even in an outlandish world where 3D space emerges from some kind of cosmic brain or infinite-dimensional computerverse, I don't see how spacetime can be anything more than a mathematical convenience. I would put it up there with string theory in the category of physics being hijacked by mathematicians.
