Sean Carroll on Physics, the Multiverse, and Quantum Mechanics
Manage episode 419989898 series 2835373
Why is matter solid? Why is there antimatter? Where do the sizes of atoms come from? Theoretical physicist and philosopher Sean Carroll cuts to the bare mathematical essence of our most profound theories, explaining every step in his new book, Quanta and Fields: The Biggest Ideas in the Universe. In this interview, Carroll uses the basics of quantum mechanics itself to explain measurement and entanglement before exploring how the world is really made of fields.
Carroll's book, Quanta and Fields, is available for purchase now.
