Episode 59: The Hubble Crisis
Randy and Jim discuss the current tension between measurements of the Hubble constant by different methods, and some attempts to resolve the issue.Show Notes: http://frontiers.phys...
Episode 58: Phantom Matter
Jim and Randy talk about the Higgs portal to dark matter and the nightmare scenario for particle physicists: what if the LHC never saw any traces of supersymmetric particles?Show N...
Episode 57: Quantum Effects in Gravitational Waves
Randy and Jim talk about two proposals to use gravitational wave interferometry to show that gravitons exist through noise measurements.Show Notes: http://frontiers.physicsfm.com/5...
Episode 56: Anomalous Magnetic Moment of the Muon
Jim and Randy discuss the measurements of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and some of the ways in which the discrepancy between theory and experiment could manifest thems...
Episode 55: Multiversality
Jim and Randy discuss the rationales for multiverses based on quantum mechanics, string theory, and the anthropic principle.Show Notes: http://frontiers.physicsfm.com/55...
Episode 54: The ANITA Experiment
Randy and Jim talk about the strange results of the ANITA experiment: tau neutrinos that seem to come up out of the Earth.Notes: http://frontiers.physicsfm.com/54...
Electromagnetic Gravitational Repulsion
Randy tells Jim about ways in which electromagnetism reduces the gravitational attraction caused by a body....
Sterile Neutrinos
Jim and Randy discuss the hypothesis of sterile neutrinos, neutrinos that are even more ghostly than neutrinos that are dark matter candidates....
Gravitational Wave Astronomy
Jim and Randy talk about gravitational waves....
X17
Jim and Randy discuss a possible "fifth force," the hypothetical X17 particle that has been seen in several experiments. Erratum: The g-2 of the muon was shown to be off by 1 part...
The Unruh Effect
Jim and Randy discuss the apparent creation of quanta seen by comparing the viewpoints of relatively accelerating observers -- the Unruh Effect. (There is a little noise that shows...
The Gertsenshtein Effect
Randy introduces Jim to the Gertsenshtein effect, the conversion of gravitational waves to electromagnetic waves through resonances.Show Notes: http://frontiers.physicsfm.com/48...
