I absolutely loved this session. My wife still doesn't understand why I get so excited about such material...I remind her that she knew going in that science... and Physics in particular... was always going to be my first love. This is a case where my wife has become my mistress. And as improbable as it seems, after 50 years of togetherness, it seems as if it has worked out.

Brian does an excellent job of interviewing his guests! His session with Paul Steinhardt was truly enlightening in the interview we learn about how the properties of quasicrystals may lead to new mind boggling technologies that were previously unimaginable!

Actually maybe this is his real big talent

Steinhardt always impresses me as simultaneously an exceedingly scientific and most original mind. Embedded in strong (and rare) social bravery and relentless honesty. Feynman's influence is clear. I hope he and his ideas become more widely appreciated.

Brian, I liked the analogies you made to football and politics. Competition can be good or bad, I think iterating that of 'rival' vs 'teamwork' is important to better understanding/learning. Or maybe, "Feynman had no rivals because he considered 'no one' a rival". Didn't play the game but simply sought truth/knowledge. Thank you Dr's and pls keep publishing ; )

Thanks so much. Have a great weekend!

Paul Steinhardt: "I've been waiting for you, Richard Feynman. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you I was but the learner. Now, *I* am the master."

Totally fascinating, as is the story about metacrystal science before that name was innovated. Those were tough times also. Working against established assumptions and within the same community is almost impossible, even deadly, at least for a science career.

I think I watched this before. Interesting that there are things that were considered to be impossible. Mandelbrot Mandelbulbs may point to such “new” things. Thanks again for reposting.

Postponed a few months.

an "impossible" material that interests me is one that passes physical shocks in one direction, and not in the other. This would be akin to a diode in an electrical circuit, so would in effect, be a "phononic diode". This could be useful in the Woodward thruster idea in that dissimilar masses at each end of the stacks would not be required, as there would be no reflected impulses for them to attempt to minimize, thus simplifying their mechanism and raising the possibility of higher thrust output. As a diode in electrical circuitry, the reverse path is suppressed with a high resistance, and some minimum waste heat. A phononic diode most likely would suppress reverse shocks by converting that energy to heat.

20:07 - It’s pretty amazing.

Haven’t read the book or his papers yet, but I would consider such materials as Opal-C and Opal-CT as “quasi-crystals” with short range ordering defined by Raman scattering spectra. These are found as naturally occurring.

It sounds cold 🥶 and miserable but sounds like an awesome adventure.

I think math is missing two number sets and it is throwing off all even/odd numbers after 12 0+,1-,2+…8+,9-,10+,11-,12+…(Current numbers) Need to add: 0+,1-,2+…8+,9-,X+,E-,E1+,E2-… 0+,1-,2+…8+,9-,X+,E-,T+,T1-,T2+… These are the number of base pairs per twist in DNA (10,11,12) The net charge of a pentagonal close pack takes 2 full rotations until it has been balanced (takes only 1 rotation for hex pack) This has to do with the piezo charge in our crystalline DNA Can you let me know if this makes any sense to you? My math is not strong enough to conclude this idea Thank you

We have to much evidence of things that fall into idealism category that isn't physical. Tbh in 1800s the debate was revealed with a standard that we would no longer say it's a top down creation but rather would allow a micro be the fundamental building blocks and that would settle if it's materialism or idealism. And Isaac Newtons idealism won out in the end. Fields and waves are like gravity or love, you can't put the hard evidence in your hands but can observe secondary effects. Isaac Newtons either still lives on in dark matter. Einstein also lost out on who was the smartest ever over this very debate.

One would think scientists would value what they have to say enough to invest a little in better quality audio which they can easily afford.

In the category of "stuff that shouldn't exist in nature...but does!", I nominate Oprah Winfrey.

All things which are anomalous point out that it is our model which needs fixing. All things are logical when seen from nature's vantage point. This is why neutrons decay cosmology. Path of least action + gravity Neutron Decay cosmology suggests that each proton has its own electron. Since they as a composite process are both children of progenitor neutron. Neutrons decay into hydrogen which slowly is repackaged by gravity until it is the singular neutron that is the event horizon/vacuum flux then neutron in deep void again. Constantly flowing down the Ricci curve forever with a flip at event horizon to antimatter for a world line to undo the twist. Minimal single sided closed surface. Who needs two surfaces when one will suffice? Surface(cos(u/2) cos(v/2),cos(u/2sin(v/2), sin(u)/2) 0>u>4π 0>v>2π Notice that 2 full rotations, 4π, are needed to complete surface. Electron half spin.

My scant knowledge of particle physics frees my imagination. I thought this talk could be about manipulating the subatomic particles to configure a custom form of matter, say with the electrons in the nucleus and the protons orbiting. (He passes the roach.)

Are bucky-balls quasi-crystals?

Fund research witha metacrystal-shaped candy shop?

The point of every rule is to find it's exception - anything is impossible, only until it is not the truly important question is, is time travel possible? if it is, then will we not eventually learn how? I doubt science will ever know the answer - but we will. proof: in the first dimension there is no time bond, thus there is no need for travel to accomplish the same - go there to find the truth, not only do we, but we needs to in order to cause everything.

@Daryl Brown if you judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree you'll come to similar conclusions smoking weed isn't supposed to make you smart, in fact it's much more likely to make you like those who have said things like all I know is I know nothing or love thy neighbor. basically it's *suppose* to expand your mind past the box you call reality.... to give you question, not answer. "smart" is an illusion put upon a mind whom refuses to explore (lack of) limitation. ... pro at what I wonder?

Sounds like a point of genesis for many potentially transformative discoveries in metamaterials.

Thanks yes I agree

Having been brought up by the Feynman type generation, in Australia, with the "Old Country" heritage, it's difficult to have an ordinary discussion without making accusations of intellectual incapacity, based on self judgement of one's own mistakes, otherwise there's no advancement from the base of expected ignorance. Demonstrated ideas are everything, expletives just oil the mechanism, unless you have to speak like your parents and sisters are listening. Good self discipline is good for Sciencing. Speaking of the mechanism from the "nth" POV, the implied eternal certainty of 1+1=2 in numeracy turns one into an "idiot", nobody's fault that we're unable to learn from the experience.., as switching off this aspect identifier to the quantization concept, eg the "Unit Circle" is an e-Pi-i condensation-concept of zero-infinity positioning in relative-timing, ..Temporal Calculus Condensation, an objective of coherence-cohesion, tangential to, not the Kelvin Absolute orthogonality, which zero-infinity cause-effect function Singularity is. Everything happening all-ways all-at-once, 1-0-infinity sync-duration holography is where our mind is at. The potential possibilities of crystallisation are probably another item to be found in Hilbert's Infite Hotel rooms.., aspects of ONE-INFINITY. Or, perfect Precision in real-time theory is not Accuracy in relative-timing ratio-rates of WYSIWYG Actuality, except in temporal superposition Singularity-point cause-effect simultaneous omnidirectional-dimensional Origin. String Theoretical Vibration Calculus is not Actuality of QM-TIMESPACE, a fractal conic-cyclonic instantaneous projection-drawing holography, so more like a "Wireframe" AdS/CFT i-reflection containment state.., which "works" in the judgement of one's PhD Peers.
