Exploring the fundamental concepts of quantum mechanics with a focus on entanglement's pivotal role, shedding light on wave functions, Schrodinger equation, and atomic energy levels for a deeper grasp of quantum phenomena.
Publication week! Say hello to Quanta and Fields, the second volume of the planned three-volume series The Biggest Ideas in the Universe. This volume covers quantum physics generally, but focuses especially on the wonders of quantum field theory. To celebrate, this solo podcast talks about some of the big ideas that make QFT so compelling: how quantized fields produce particles, how gauge symmetries lead to forces of nature, and how those forces can manifest in different phases, including Higgs and confinement.
