Sean’s Head Explodes.

September 2nd, 2010


One day before a particularly difficult calculus test Sean is overwhelmed in his efforts to understand complex mathematics. His headache persisted worse and worse and he begged us for an Advil, but we had just run out. May he rest in peace.

Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity | Lecture 3

September 2nd, 2010


In this lecture, Leonard Susskind continues his discussion of Einstein’s theory of general relativity. He also gives a broad overview of the field of tensor calculus and it’s relation to the curvature and geometry of space-time. This Stanford Continuing Studies course is the fourth of a six-quarter sequence of classes exploring the essential theoretical foundations of modern physics. The topics covered in this course focus on classical mechanics. Leonard Susskind is the Felix Bloch Professor of Physics at Stanford University.

Automatic discovery of natural laws from experimental data

August 31st, 2010


From the paper Michael Schmidt, Hod Lipson, “Distilling Free-Form Natural Laws from Experimental Data,” Science 324: 81-85, 3 April 2009 . The authors have demonstrated the discovery of physical laws, from scratch, directly from experimentally captured data with the use of a computational search. We used the presented approach to detect nonlinear energy conservation laws, Newtonian force laws, geometric invariants, and system manifolds in various synthetic and physically implemented systems without prior knowledge about physics, kinematics, or geometry. The concise analytical expressions that we found are amenable to human interpretation and help to reveal the physics underlying the observed phenomenon. Many applications exist for this approach, in fields ranging from systems biology to cosmology, where theoretical gaps exist despite abundance in data. Might this process diminish the role of future scientists? Quite the contrary: Scientists may use processes such as this to help focus on interesting phenomena more rapidly and to interpret their meaning.

AC Bio Notes! A Rap=]

August 31st, 2010


Lyrics: Wastin’ all our time on a Thursday afternoon See this hot chick and it almost makes me swoon School day is tomorrow and we’re seein’ it with dread Feelin’ rather hungry so we go munch on some bread Done all of our homework except for one little bit I’ll tell ya it’s not band, world geo, or even lit It’s getting hot in there so we take off our fur coats And we settle nice and comfy to some AC bio notes Go up to my room just to get my bio book, With a mournful glance at my 360 do I look Gaze at the title: Connections and Concepts It’s a real thick book man, just like Gabe and I’s biceps Open up the book and the first thing that I see Stings my gentle eyes just like a mean and little bee We flip the big fat book to the required sections Already my weak mind is screaming out our objections In the beginning I see stuff about plasmids, And they look like bling bling chains that we store back at our cribs Scientists put them in things like prokaryote bacteria Helping our mankind bein’ the main criteria Wastin’ all our time on a Thursday afternoon. See this hot chick and it almost makes me swoon School day is tomorrow and we hate it in extreme Feelin’ rather hungry so we go munch on ice cream Done all of our homework except for one little bit I’ll tell ya it’s not band, world geo, or even lit It’s getting hot in there so we take off our fur coats And we settle nice and comfy to some AC bio notes Restriction enzymes we can see cut up new DNA Why it does that, you askin’ me

Richard Dawkins Growing Up In The Universe 4 1of6

August 31st, 2010


Oxford professor Richard Dawkins presents a series of lectures on life, the universe, and our place in it. With brilliance and clarity, Dawkins unravels an educational gem that will mesmerize young and old alike. Illuminating demonstrations, wildlife, virtual reality, and special guests (including Douglas Adams) all combine to make this collection a timeless classic. The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures for Children were founded by Michael Faraday in 1825, with himself as the inaugural lecturer. The 1991 lecturer was Richard Dawkins whose five one-hour lectures, originally televised by the BBC www.richarddawkins.net
