One of the leading particle physics phenomenologists of his generation, Nima Arkani-Hamed, Institute for Advanced Study, is concerned with the relation between theory and experiment. His research has shown how the extreme weakness of gravity, relative to other forces of nature, might be explained by the existence of extra dimensions of space, and how the structure of comparatively low-energy physics is constrained within the context of string theory. He has taken a lead in proposing new physical theories that can be tested at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland.
In this fascinating conversation, Nima talks about how we discover the laws of nature, the “scientific method”, the time-honoured convergence of theory with experiment and how can we push our understanding well beyond where experiments can currently reach. With his unbridled enthusiasm and engaging eloquence, Nima takes us inside the world of a working theoretical physicist, sharing his frustration at some of the ways that physics is communicated to the general public while revealing how he and his colleagues hope to be steered towards the truth without experiment to guide them.
The Power of Principles A Conversation with Nima ArkaniHamed Ideas Roadshow Howard Burton
Prof. Arkani Hamed is one of the leading minds in theoretical physics of his generation alive today. His ideas include some of the freshest methods for extending the boundary from what we can only begin to imagine to what we can begin to understand. The conversation transcribed into the text is informal, in some ways cursory and humorous. But it contains key concepts about where science needs to advance, how it could advance, and how difficult it is to advance within a structure which is already so precise and so rigid that nearly any way to change it destroys its entire edifice, a "Castle" as Nima puts it, which explains practically every physical phenomena of every day interaction from grand scales down to scales at the subatomic level with breathtaking accuracy. Yet even such powerful physics as relativity and quantum mechanics are not able to answer the most fundamental questions of our cosmos. That's why we need minds such as Nima's and his colleagues' to help usher in the next century of breakthroughs in the most fundamental field of human knowledge, of our origins and nature.Product details
