@CatAstro_Piyush your notes look amazingly organized! Thanks so much for sharing this, it is really fulfilling to see that my videos can be of any interest and help understanding less standard topics in physics. I am no longer active here but you can find on #Bluesky bsky.app/profile/jsdiaz…

new video: "Discovery of spin... but missed." The Stern-Gerlach experiment revealed the existence of spin but this discovery was missed due to a collection of coincidences and fortuitous mathematical cancellations youtu.be/_0zX8tL-Rak #JK0

@nbody6 Gracias por compartir, no tenía idea. Hace unas semanas me enteré que uno de mis videos aparece citado en un libro; depués alguien me escribió contando que ven mis videos en un curso de ingeniería en Canadá; ahora esto. Estoy por las nubes con la recepción que ha tenido mi hobby

@biophilo @NobelPrize Max von Laue got the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1914 for the we work that he published in 1912. Not sure if there is anything shorter than that.

@NobelPrize As I got no answer, I did Google it, and the answer is no, but it's maybe in top 3/5 (for science)?

The Nobel Prize
The Nobel Prize@NobelPrize·
The 2024 #NobelPrize laureates in chemistry Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have successfully utilised artificial intelligence to predict the structure of almost all known proteins. In 2020, Hassabis and Jumper presented an AI model called AlphaFold2. With its help, they have been able to predict the structure of virtually all the 200 million proteins that researchers have identified. Since their breakthrough, AlphaFold2 has been used by more than two million people from 190 countries. Among a myriad of scientific applications, researchers can now better understand antibiotic resistance and create images of enzymes that can decompose plastic.

@marcel_hussing I respect what these people did but giving them the Nobel Prize in Physics is like giving the Turing Award to a pair of physicists

Our kittens really like my backup (it’s warm). My knowledge of science has never been so useful before 🥰

@DominatingAmani @A_J_Higgins photovoltaic production of electricity is a wonderful method to move away from steam and turbines; however, their environmental impact is ignored and most people only focus on how cheap solar panels are. I very much prefer nuclear kettles, they are closer to to the optimum.
