Quantum physics

Quantum physics sits within Physics, Space & Chemistry. Move between physical explanations and the observations, experiments, or engineering questions that motivate them. This selection contains 57 catalog videos from 29 distinct channels. The examples below offer specific entry points into the subject, with their own vocabulary and scope, rather than a prescribed sequence of lessons.

Recurring catalog topics include quantum mechanics, black holes, particle physics, pbs space time, physics and double slit. These tags describe overlapping directions within the collection; an individual video may connect several of them. Recorded formats include demo, explainer, interview, lecture, podcast and talk. Use those differences to choose between approaches to the subject and to compare how different contributors frame related questions.

“The more general uncertainty principle, regarding Fourier transforms”, listed under 3Blue1Brown, is cataloged as explainer. 3Blue1Brown shows how the uncertainty principle arises from Fourier transforms. A wave packet cannot be narrow in both position and frequency, so the principle is a property of waves rather than of…

“Sir Roger Penrose & Dr. Stuart Hameroff: CONSCIOUSNESS AND THE PHYSICS OF THE BRAIN”, listed under The Qualcomm Institute, is cataloged as lecture. A 2020 UC San Diego event with Roger Penrose and Stuart Hameroff presenting their Orch OR theory that consciousness arises from quantum processes in brain microtubules, followed by a conversation with Roger…
