Part of the Stand-Up Physicist series, half hour chats by Doug Sweetser about his theoretical physics research. This show tries to explain why quantum mechanics has to be the way it is, due to a new definition of the calculus of 4D events in spacetime. Pictures are provided.

This guy is seriously unfunny,i am both a physicist and funny he dosnt get my vote!

hahaha! this is hilaroius! I love this song! it is so my teacher

just had to think of something i recently heard being said:'quantum physics is just a tiny part of the whole puzzle'well, the guy did it, he explained it so that i can even understand half of it!

This was great. If you don't laugh at physics its because you don't understand it. "it" being that there is nothing to understand, or so we think. I love physics, this guy was a wonderful teacher.

he looks like bill gates lol

Marijuana and quantum mechanics. Two great things that goes great together.

you sir are a genius, i salute you, 4 dimensional can only be solved through quaternions in my own perspective, the old hidden manuscript aahhh how nice.

wow this guy is funny :/

In quantum physics, one often takes energy times time, and momentum times position, and puts that in an exponential. That can ONLY be done if the exponent is dimensionless. The units of h are those for E*t an P*x, so E*t/h and P*x/h is dimensionless. hbar = h/2 pi, so E*t/hbar = 2 pi i E*t/h. If you get n clumps of quanta, you get exp(2 pi n i). Type exp (2 * pi i) in at Google, and you always get 1. Physicists like 1's. (search for my name on YouTube, watch what interests you).

also, where can I view the other shows in this series?thanks. |
