The Nuclear Disaster of Chernobyl analyzes the nuclear disaster of Ukraine and Chernobyl and the effects on health and society.

This is a procedural video that will show students how to weave paper.

Princeton University physicist Paul Steinhardt describes how a given material can be tested for being of meteoretic origin by examining its oxygen isotopes.

Nobel Laureate in Physics Anthony Leggett (Illinois) describes how we could well explore different models to explain the structure of many glassy materials.

Once we knew that quasicrystals could be produced in a laboratory, Paul Steinhardt, Princeton University, set out to see if they might exist naturally, spending hours carefully examining minerals in museums in the hopes of stumbling upon...

Paul Steinhardt, University of Princeton, describes his encounter with a highly sceptical geologist, demonstrating both his tenacity as well as an intriguing scientific distinction between "impossible" and "highly unlikely".

University of Chicago theoretical physicist Rocky Kolb relates his belief that a valuable way of teaching science is to focus on the compelling stories of the people at the root of scientific discovery.

Princeton University physicist Paul Steinhardt discusses the spectrum of current scientific investigations associated with the quasicrystals he and his colleagues discovered.

Princeton University physicist Paul Steinhardt reveals how scientific understanding steadily pares away incorrect possibilities.

Nobel Laureate Antony Leggett details the logical fallacy of "affirming the consequent", stressing that we must always make sure that another model might explain the phenomenon in question, giving a concrete example to illustrate his point.

Astrophysicist Scott Tremaine, Institute for Advanced Study, describes his initial lack of interest in astronomy, how a keener sense of how our understanding of physics can be applied to the heavens made him change his mind, and what...

Princeton University physicist Paul Steinhardt describes how physicists can reveal the underlying atomic structure of materials by scattering other particles off them.

Princeton University physicist Paul Steinhardt reveals the different shades of meaning the word "impossible" has for him.

Physicist Paul Steinhardt, Princeton University, describes his sense of excitement when, shortly after he determined the diffraction pattern his theoretical new material would produce in a laboratory, someone showed him an experimental...

Quasicrystals, a new state of matter, had been fabricated in a laboratory in the 1980s, but Paul Steinhardt, Princeton University, diligently continued his search to see if Nature had made some herself, a search which eventually paid off...

We investigate a less familiar corner of Rossini’s writing, namely the Preludio Religioso from his Petite Messe. Unusually, the movement is written for Harmonium. This composer insights lesson goes on to explore the initial fugal...
