Dr. André Koch Torres Assis is a professor of physics at the
University of Campinas in Brazil. He has worked on myriad topics
including gravitation (Relational Mechanics, Mach's principle and
the origin of inertia, absorption of gravity), electromagnetism
(Weber's Electrodynamics, Ampère's force between current
elements, electric field outside resistive wires carrying steady
currents, propagation of electromagnetic signals), cosmology
(Hubble's law of redshifts, cosmic background radiation, tired
light, infinite universe in space and time) and history of
science. Our conversation explores how physics, in the main,
seems only to be able to tolerate one theoretical framework at a
time. This has the potential to leave many revelations behind on
the cutting room floor. We explore the consequences of this
dynamic across the past few hundred years. Tell us what you think

https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S PODCAST INFO: Anastasia completed her PhD
studying bioelectricity at Columbia University. When not talking
to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time
painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also
did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of
molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring
sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various
universities. - Blog: http://DemystifySci.com/blog - RSS:
