CURIOSITY AND COLLABORATION ARE KEY AT ISSYP Curiosity and collaboration are key at ISSYP. Perimeter’s annual International Summer School for Young Physicists gathered 40 students from across Canada, the US, and Brazil for virtual lessons – and the chance to share excitement about modern physics.

NEIL'S NOTES: GOODBYE, DEAR STEPHEN Neil’s Notes: Goodbye, dear Stephen. Cosmologist Neil Turok reflects on the life, work, and unquenchable curiosity of his friend and colleague, Stephen Hawking. WHAT QUANTUM PHYSICS CAN LEARN FROM ANCIENT EGYPT What quantum physics can learn from Egyptian hieroglyphs. Is a category mistake at the root of our troubles with quantum theory? Perimeter Faculty member Robert Spekkens explores the “riddle of the Sphinx” and its lessons for quantum science. 14 MIND-BOGGLINGLY AWESOME FACTS ABOUT THE HUBBLE DEEP 14 mind-bogglingly awesome facts about the Hubble Deep Field images. The landmark Deep Field image and its successors make the mind reel with their depictions of the universe’s unfathomable vastness. 17 FASCINATING PHYSICS PODCASTS TO STRETCH YOUR BRAIN The world may have just reached “peak podcast,” according to a recent story in The New York Times.There have never been – and may never be again – more podcasts than there are right now (roughly 700,000 of them, according to one tally). EMMY NOETHER'S REVOLUTIONARY IDEA EXPLAINED FOR ANYONE One hundred years ago, on July 23, 1918, Emmy Noether published a paper that would change science. She was 36 at the time, working as an unpaid “assistant” under a male colleague because the University of Göttingen did not allow women to become professors.

Perimeter Institute is the world’s largest independent research hub devoted to theoretical physics, created to foster breakthroughs in the fundamental understanding of our universe, from the smallest particles to the entire cosmos.

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN PHYSICS? TAKE THE QUIZ! Very simply, what’s the difference between weight and mass? A. No difference – they’re synonyms. B.

AN EXPERIMENTAL TEST OF QUANTUM INFORMATION SCRAMBLING An experimental test of quantum information scrambling. Perimeter Faculty member Beni Yoshida and colleagues successfully simulated the process of quantum information scrambling inside a black hole. In early 2017, while seeking his first faculty position, Beni Yoshida visited the University of California, Berkeley, for an interview. 10 FASCINATING FACTS ABOUT THE EVENT HORIZON TELESCOPE The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a global array of interconnected radio telescopes that is expected to soon provide humanity’s first glimpse of a black hole.

EMMY NOETHER'S REVOLUTIONARY IDEA EXPLAINED FOR ANYONE Emmy Noether’s revolutionary theorem explained, from kindergarten to PhD. A century ago, Emmy Noether published a theorem that would change mathematics and physics. Here’s an all-ages guided tour through this groundbreaking idea. One hundred years ago, on July 23, 1918, Emmy Noether published a paper that would change science. WHAT QUANTUM PHYSICS CAN LEARN FROM ANCIENT EGYPT What quantum physics can learn from Egyptian hieroglyphs. Is a category mistake at the root of our troubles with quantum theory? Perimeter Faculty member Robert Spekkens explores the “riddle of the Sphinx” and its lessons for quantum science. TENSOR NETWORKS ARE A POWERFUL TOOL. IF ONLY THE BEST ONES Tensor networks are a hot topic in physics these days. Developed in the 1990s as a tool for condensed matter physics research, the field exploded in the 2000s thanks to ideas from quantum information, and they are now popping up everywhere from field theory to quantum chemistry, holography, machine learning, and more.

THE SOUND OF DARK MATTER The idea behind the “sound” of dark matter is one that can be tested with existing experimental apparatus at low cost, and could yield illuminating insights into one of the universe’s most profound puzzles. To explore this idea requires reimagining dark matter not as a particle – the most common conception of it – but as a wave. FORCES OF NATURE: GREAT WOMEN WHO CHANGED SCIENCE Chien-Shiung Wu was a leading experimental physicist of her time. Emmy Noether’s work in symmetry and conservation underpins much of modern physics. Annie Jump Cannon led the development of stellar classification systems. Marie Skłodowska Curie made revolutionary contributions to physics and chemistry. These women were forces ofnature.

Perimeter researchers are pulling from physics and mathematics to connect two ways of understanding nature, writes Dan Falk. by Perimeter Institute /. on Jun 01, 2018.

Since that time, the relationship between EINSTEIN, STORYTELLER With hesitancy, due to my appreciation of the subtlety of his thought, here is a tentative answer: Einstein was a storyteller. Einstein asked different questions than his contemporaries. They were content to live with knowledge that was incomplete and, to a greater or lesser degree, contradictory or incoherent.
