Quantum Particles and the Standard Model

Join us on an enthralling journey through the annals of scientific discovery as we delve into the pivotal moments and brilliant minds that shaped our understanding of the quantum world. In this episode, we unravel the groundbreaking contributions of visionaries like Louis de Broglie and Max Planck, whose revolutionary ideas set the stage for a quantum revolution. Explore the quantum leap from classical to modern physics, uncovering the mysteries of particle-wave duality, and witness the birth of a new era in science. Through a journey of how quantised energy states transformed to the beautiful application of differential equations we know of today, we navigate the paths of these trailblazers, shedding light on their theories, experiments, and the profound impact their work had on the realm of quantum mechanics. Step into the world of quanta and witness the genesis of a scientific paradigm that forever altered our perception of reality.

In this intriguing podcast episode, we explore the captivating concepts of superposition and Schrödinger's Cat in the realm of quantum mechanics. Delving into the mysterious world of quantum physics, we unravel the paradoxes that challenge our classical understanding of reality. Join us as we navigate the complexities of superposition and contemplate the mind-bending scenario of a cat existing in multiple states simultaneously. Prepare to have your perception of the quantum world reshaped in this thought-provoking exploration.

Ever heard of how confusing Quantum Mechanics is? In this episode we will start a series where we unravel the complex and confusing topics of this odd branch of physics. Tune in to learn about one of the founding experiments of Quantum Physics, the double-slit experiment. 

Tune in to listen to how black holes form and their interesting properties and effects! We'll be talking about concepts involving the theory of general relativity, a singularity, time dilation, how light reacts with a black hole and generally how black holes can mess up the fabric of space-time. 

Ever heard of radioactivity, or radiation? Well, if it's ever piqued your interest to learn about it tune in to learn about the 3 main types of radioactive decay: alpha, beta and gamma. In this episode, we'll also be discussing the electromagnetic spectrum, particle decays and even nuclear fusion in the sun!

Tune in to learn about the standard model of physics, one of the most important tools scientists use to unravel the mysteries of the universe. We will be talking about quarks, leptons, hadrons, photons, gluons, the Higgs Boson and much more!

Tune in to listen to how exactly a star evolves into the next stages of its life and then eventually dies to give way for another star to form!

Ever wanted to understand how exactly the fusion of Hydrogen takes place in a star? Well after listening to this episode you will not only get a clear picture of that but also of how a star is born!

In this episode we start a whole new topic: the birth and death of stars. This will be covered in about 3-4 episodes talking about subtopics ranging from life cycles to black holes and supernovae!

This episode will talk about the formation of our solar system, the various planets and the other rocks in it.
