Will the James Webb Space Telescope Reveal Another Earth?
...for particle physics? Do you have a standard model for galaxy evolution or star formation or all that? Rieke (13:36): Well, there’s certainly a kind of commonly accepted framework right...
A Biochemist’s View of Life’s Origin Reframes Cancer and Aging
...mystery led Nick Lane, a professor of evolutionary biochemistry at University College London, to an unorthodox hypothesis about the origin of life. What if life arose in a geological environment...
What Drives Galaxies? The Milky Way’s Black Hole May Be the Key.
Supermassive black holes have come to the fore as engines of galactic evolution, but new observations of the Milky Way and its central hole don’t yet hang together. On May...
Physicists Rewrite a Quantum Rule That Clashes With Our Universe
...configuration has been “encoded” in a larger, eight-digit state. That evolution resembles a unitary one, in that there are two possibilities at the beginning and two at the end. But...
Is Perpetual Motion Possible at the Quantum Level?
...tie it back to that now? What did you get your chip to do? Khemani (26:53): Yeah, so any computation is just a time evolution. OK? But if you want...
Quaking Giants Might Solve the Mysteries of Stellar Magnetism
...is tipped on its side, meaning that the technique could determine the orientation of magnetic fields, which is crucial for updating models of stellar evolution. A second study, led by...
What Is the Nature of Time?
...that radiation tends to go out from things and not come in. There’s this arrow of time associated with evolution of life. And many others you could invent on the...
How Is Science Even Possible?
...ineffectiveness of mathematics in biology. Because, in fact, the real code is a product of evolution. And there’s nothing special about the number 20. So, this is an example of,...
Tracing the Hidden Hand of Magnetism in the Galaxy
...magnetism on the evolution of stars and galaxies, and Clark is one of the scientists spearheading this effort. As the leader of the Cosmic Magnetism and Interstellar Physics group at...
