Leading physicist Raphael Bousso joins Brian Greene to explore the almost unreasonable capacity of our theories of gravity to give deep insights into quantum physics. This program is part of …
How confident are we that most matter in the universe has so far escaped detection? And if there is dark matter, might there be dark stars and even a dark …
What do aerobic exercise and memory have in common? According to neuroscientist Wendy Suzuki, more than you think. Her passion for the human brain, memory, and exercise are inspiring people …
Acknowledging the scientists who blazed intellectual trails before him, Isaac Newton wrote, “If I have seen a little further it was by standing on the shoulders of giants.” In this special annual series, we invite our audience to stand on the shoulders of a modern-day giant. This year, we are honored to present an address by a titan of physics, Barry Barish.
When no one is looking, a particle has near limitless potential: it can be nearly anywhere. But measure it, and the particle snaps to one position. How do subatomic objects shed their quantum weirdness?
In this year-end wrap up, Brian Greene discusses some of the major advances in science with a focus on breakthroughs in black hole physics and the key roles played by …
