Emergent Phenomena in Negative Heat Capacity Systems: Fundamental Physics from Dense Star Clusters

wherein you can learn about the "No Teleportation Theorem" and why there is no classical Scattering Theorem
or some such nonsense...
me, podcast with bonus video feed.
Argh.

one of the nice, but occasionally disturbing things about the Kavli Institute of Theoretical Physics is that they podcast and video essentially all their talks,

this one, with the soporifiic droning of yours truly

this is very, very disturbing...

there is also an audio podcast, not that I'd recommend having this on your iPod on long drives.

I have a whole pile of science-y book reviews on two of my older blogs, here and here. Both of those blogs have now been largely superseded by or merged into this one. So I'm going to be slowly moving the relevant reviews over here. I'll mostly be doing the posts one or two per weekend and I'll…
The workshop on Massive Black Holes at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics continues with today's session on "Co-evolution of black holes and their host galaxies". I continue a semi-liveblog of the proceedings. As before, talks are online here - podcast, audio and video options; pdfs of…
Today is the official release date for the paperback edition of How to Teach Physics to Your Dog, so I wanted to write up something cool about quantum physics to mark the occasion. I looked around the house for inspiration, and most of what we have lying around the house is SteelyKid's toys. Thus,…
