#neutrinos #cosmology #WomenInSTEM Dr. Vavagiakis is a postdoctoral associate in the Physics Department at Cornell University. She works on four collaborations: ACT, CCAT-prime, CMB-S4, and the Simons Observatory. She is a fierce advocate for inclusion, diversity and Women in STEM.
Eve got her PhD at Cornell University in 2021, where she was an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and Provost Diversity Fellow on instrumentation and analysis for cosmology and astrophysics.
She designed Mod-Cam, a first light instrument for the CCAT Observatory‘s Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST). And is currently leading the development of Mod-Cam for first light on the FYST, located at 5600 meter elevation in the Atacama Desert, Chile.
In addition to building instrumentation, Dr. Vavagiakis analyzes maps of the cosmic microwave background to measure thermal and kinetic Sunyaev–Zel’dovich signals. These measurements probe the contents and evolution of galaxy groups and clusters and will constrain the fundamental physics of our universe.
Eve is an enthusiastic science communicator to a diverse public audience, and authoring children’s books with MIT Kids Press which will highlight modern physics and astronomy experiments. The first book is “I’m a Neutrino,” available on Amazon.
“I’m a Neutrino” is an accessible and visually arresting picture book about one of the universe's most mysterious particles for the youngest scientific minds.

How do you deal with one of the greatest minds in physics of all time calling your ideas stupid and impossible? My guest Paul Steinhardt, who had the honor of being mentored by the one and only Richard Feynman, has experienced this not once but many times! In this video, he explains what it was like to be a pupil of the legendary physicist.
If you liked this clip, check out our full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUN2j-Cjryk
Paul J. Steinhardt is the Albert Einstein Professor of Science at Princeton University. His pioneering work has significantly impacted our understanding of the universe’s early moments and its fundamental constituents. Throughout his career, Steinhardt made significant contributions to theoretical cosmology, condensed matter physics, and the study of quasicrystals. He is arguably best known for developing the inflationary model of the early expansion of the Universe, a groundbreaking theory that explains the uniformity of the Universe on large scales. He also challenged conventional cosmological paradigms with his work on the cyclic model of the Universe, proposing a cyclic theory of cosmic evolution in which universes are endlessly born, expand, contract, and rebound.

#JWST #JamesWebbSpaceTelescope #SpaceTelescopes In July NASA released the first images and data from the James Webb Space Telescope. Here's my discussion with @Ben Shapiro on this treasure trove of data including:
Carina Nebula. The Carina Nebula is one of the largest and brightest nebulae in the sky, located approximately 7,600 light-years away in the southern constellation Carina. Nebulae are stellar nurseries where stars form. The Carina Nebula is home to many massive stars, several times larger than the Sun.
WASP-96 b (spectrum). WASP-96 b is a giant planet outside our solar system, composed mainly of gas. The planet, located nearly 1,150 light-years from Earth, orbits its star every 3.4 days. It has about half the mass of Jupiter, and its discovery was announced in 2014.
Southern Ring Nebula. The Southern Ring, or “Eight-Burst” nebula, is a planetary nebula – an expanding cloud of gas, surrounding a dying star. It is nearly half a light-year in diameter and is located approximately 2,000 light years away from Earth.
Stephan’s Quintet: About 290 million light-years away, Stephan’s Quintet is located in the constellation Pegasus. It is notable for being the first compact galaxy group ever discovered in 1877. Four of the five galaxies within the quintet are locked in a cosmic dance of repeated close encounters.

Brian Keating Reviews Sean Carroll's book
The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself
Get Sean’s newest book 'Something Deeply Hidden' here https://amzn.to/2ZTBNhD
Brian Keating is Prof. of physics at the Center for Astrophysics and Space Sciences at the University of California, San Diego. He was elected as a fellow of the American Physical Society in 2016.
Published in Physics Today 69, 12, 55 (2016);
See the full text here - https://doi.org/10.1063/PT.3.3399
The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself, Sean Carroll, Dutton, 2016. $28.00 (480 pp.). ISBN 978-0-525-95482-8
Buy it here: https://amzn.to/2Q3VW5l
At the accepted rate of one picture per thousand words, Sean Carroll’s magnum opus, The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself, would be worth about 100 pictures. Carroll, a theoretical physicist at Caltech, could have easily titled his book Poetry for Physicists, touching as it does on the deepest chords of existence, from astrophysics to zoology.
We can begin, as Carroll does, with definitions. Consider the word “universe.” Religious interpretations have it originating from the words “one” and “verse,” or from “word,” as in the word said to be spoken by God “in the beginning.” The Roman philosopher Lucretius, one of the founders of naturalism and a peripheral character in the book, is said to have coined the word—whose Latin translation means “one roll”—to evoke “everything rolled, or combined, into one.” The disparate views on this seemingly innocuous word perfectly capture the richness of The Big Picture.
Although there aren’t many new ideas in The Big Picture, it shines as a juxtaposition and synthesis of what we physicists do know. Carroll’s book contains the definitive treatment of a wide range of subjects, including quantum entanglement, Bayes’s theorem, the Turing test, abiotic evolution, the physically relevant aspects of philosophy, the multiverse, and, of course, the standard model of physics. The standard model is the main focus of the tome, which Carroll calls the “Core Theory,” a term coined by Frank Wilczek. Readers also receive fresh insights into old standards such as the anthropic principle.
Although credulity might be stretched in describing a 480-page book as “lively,” Carroll’s humor shines in wry passages such as those describing “full employment for philosophers” and “abducting God.” He is as adroit at quoting the secular Søren Kierkegaard as the religious evangelist Rick Warren. He can mix Immanuel Kant’s categorical imperative with Bill and Ted’s own imperative, “Be excellent to each other!” Few authors so deftly mix the

Dr. Michio Kaku — theoretical physicist, bestselling author, acclaimed public speaker, renowned futurist, and popularizer of science. As co-founder of String Field Theory, Dr. Kaku carries on Einstein’s quest to unite the four fundamental forces of nature into a single grand unified theory of everything.
Kaku has starred in a myriad of science programming for television including Discovery, Science Channel, BBC, ABC, and History Channel. Beyond his numerous bestselling books, he has also been a featured columnist for top popular science publications such as Popular Mechanics, Discover, COSMOS, WIRED, New Scientist, Newsweek, and many others. Dr. Kaku was also one of the subjects of the award-winning documentary, ME & ISAAC NEWTON by Michael Apted.
His new book THE GOD EQUATION is about the quest to unify the rules governing the heavens and the Earth, and the ultimate challenge: achieving a monumental synthesis of the two remaining theories—relativity and the quantum theory. This would be the crowning achievement of science, a profound merging of all the forces of nature into one beautiful, magnificent equation to unlock the deepest mysteries in science: What happened before the Big Bang? What lies on the other side of a black hole? Are there other universes and dimensions? Is time travel possible? Why are we here? Kaku also explains the intense controversy swirling around this theory, with Nobel laureates taking opposite sides on this vital question. It is a captivating, gripping story; what’s at stake is nothing less than our conception of the universe. Written with Kaku’s trademark enthusiasm and clarity, this epic and engaging journey is the story of The God Equation.

In the last days of his life, Albert Einstein remained vexed by a problem he had devoted so much of his life to: how to reconcile his Theory of General Relativity with the emerging field of Quantum Mechanics. General Relativity (GR) tells us how the presence of mass curves and warps spacetime, changing trajectories of massive objects like planets and altering the experience of time itself.
00:00 GR theory has given us the best descriptions of large scale motion, but as we shrink down to scales below the size of a quark we start to see problems emerge. Some of them come from infinite energies that emerge at infinitesimal short ranges, or in how General relativity changes the results of Quantum Mechanics with the bending of spacetime.
03:00 There are problems with GR, especially how it does not play well with quantum mechanics . Here I discuss the groundwork of topics like background independence and time dilation.Then I Introduce Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) a possible path to solve the problems. I discuss quantized space and time, the history of how LQG was formulated from Ashketar to Rovelli to the modern day.
07:00 I close with a frank discussion of some problems with LQG, including results from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and why some people, like past guest Michio Kaku are skeptical of it because it does not include fermions and is in conflict with Fermi's observations that some believe rules out energy-dependent speeds of light predicted by LQG.
