Radio Physics

On this episode of Radio Physics, Sasha Fielder sits down with renowned theoretical physicist Csaba Csáki to explore the frontiers of modern particle physics.From the high-energy collisions at the Large Hadron Collider to the silent mystery of the cosmos, this interview breaks down the complex "math of the universe" into a conversation for the curious mind. Listen to Radio Physics on KDNK.org every third Wednesday at 4:30pm.

This time on Radio Physics, intern Henry Billinghurst talks with theoretical physicist Krishna Rajagopal, exploring one of the most extreme states of matter in the universe: “hot quark soup,” or quark–gluon plasma and how scientists recreate this early-universe matter using powerful particle colliders to briefly produce tiny droplets of this ultra-hot, liquid-like plasma. They discuss the physics of the early universe, the behavior of matter under extreme conditions, and how modern experiments help us understand the origins of everything around us.

In this episode of Radio Physics, hosts Jack Kravitz and Sasha Fielder sit down with physicist Ryan Foley. The episode dives into gravitational waves, the dramatic collisions of neutron stars and the black holes they can create and how neutron star mergers help scientists measure the expansion rate of the universe, offering new clues about the cosmos’s past and its ultimate fate. Listen to Radio Physics on KDNK.org every third Wednesday at 4:30pm.

On this episode of Radio Physics, astrophysicist Cole Miller, joined by intern Sasha Fielder, discuss black holes—from the formation of early, very massive black holes to black holes orbiting black holes and the gravitational waves they produce, as well as multi-messenger astronomy, neutron stars, tidal forces, and discoveries from LIGO and VIRGO, along with insights gained from working with NASA’s NICER mission. Listen to Radio Physics on KDNK.org every third Wednesday at 4:30pm.

On this episode of Radio Physics, summer intern Alice Lebedev-Migdal interviews physicist Ned Wingreen. Ned's current research focuses on modeling of bacteria, bacterial communities, phages, and other microorganisms, as well as studies of intracellular phase separation, and topics in immunology. Listen to Radio Physics on KDNK.org every third Wednesday at 4:30pm.

On this episode of Radio Physics, physicist Flip Tanedo is interviewed by interns Shen Harman & Alice Lebedev-Migdal. Flip Tanedo builds models of dark matter. He is spending his time at Aspen Center for Physics thinking about ways in which dark matter can explain the mysteriously gigantic black holes that have been puzzling astronomers for the past 10 years and is also writing a textbook on linear algebra for physicists.

Natalia Perkins is a Professor at the School of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Minnesota.

Tracy Slatyer is a professor of particle physics with a concentration in theoretical astrophysics with tenure at MIT.Her research is motivated by questions of fundamental particle physics — in particular, the nature and interactionsof dark matter — and she seeks answers to these questions by studying possible signatures of new physics inastrophysical and cosmological data. She was a co-discoverer of the giant gamma-ray structures known as the“Fermi Bubbles” erupting from the center of the Milky Way.

Chiara Toldo, research fellow of Harvard University with Audrey Woodrow.

Joaquin Rodriguez Nieva is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Texas A&M University. He received his PhD from MIT, and was a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University as well as Stanford University. His research is in quantum physics, quantum matter, and statistical physics. He studies emergent phenomena in complex systems. More specifically, his research involves developing theoretical frameworks at the interface between non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and quantum information that can be used to describe, understand and, ultimately, control novel dynamical behaviors.

Summer Interns, Isaac Thompson and Audrey Woodrow speak with physicist, Ganpathy Murthy.

In this episode of Radio Physics, local students Will Jones and Grace Hassell interview Volodymyr Takhistov. Volodymyr Takhistov is a theoretical physicist, Principal Investigator, and Associate Professor at the International Center for Quantum-field Measurement Systems for Studies of the Universe and Particles. He received his PhD from University of California Irvine, and has held appointments at UCLA and Kavli IPMU at University of Tokyo.
