The New Face of Nuclear Research
October 10, 2010, at the Linda Hall Library
As fields of technology expand in new ways (e.g., materials science, supercomputing), the role of nuclear science has changed from being a supporting cast member to being a lead, with other fields in a supporting role. Dr. Dwight Williams, former Senior Science Advisor at the U.S. Department of Energy and Research Affiliate at MIT, highlights the areas of nuclear science research where this transition has already taken place and identifies the areas of research where this transition is imminent. He gives particular attention to the practical utility of this research in the technical and public domains, and in doing so, presents the new face of nuclear research.

JCCC Bird Collision Study: Creating Safer Passage for Migrating Birds
The Hawking/ Dawkins school of science is very hard-nosed, hard-faced, arrogant as regards the humanities and philosophy. I'm glad the scientist in the audience said there's more anarchy among the range of scientists, that these people often headlined in the media do not talk for all scientists.
Emily, thanks for your talk and your responsiveness to questions after talk: I was surprised you never knew anything about Husserl, who evolved phenomenology and the science of consciousness and the question of intentionality, influencing all the later existentialists( Heidegger, Sartre, etc.), which was around in the 1920s, a period you talk about. You seemed to brush it away. Still moved by your area of study.
Scientists specialize, learning in each separate silo of knowledge their speciality: this narrows what they can know or talk about. The amount they don't know is like the ocean.
Newton aside from evolving important laws of physical motion and gravity, wrote in separate books on astrology, the Bible, the occult.
Thought: Bergson looks like one of those kind of 1920s physicists; with his bowler hat on, he's like something out of Magritte.
Fantastic

Hot and warm greetings on the basis of our anniversary celebrations Starboy Rair respect is 😊😊😊❤❤😮
con't: the nuclear waste stored all around to US. And it's has taken years and most are still lying there seeping into the groundwater like around Webster Groves, Mo and into the Missouri and Mississippi rivers. And out here in Washington state we have Hanford leaking into into the Columbia River and you're welcome to live in the Tri-Cities area with its double and triple cancer rate vs. the national average.
You seem to forget about Fukushima Doctor. Also you conviently overlook
What a dumb comment.
The universe and humans were created to resolve the angelic conict.
Lies.
Disregard for authority seems to be a common trait of Nobel Laureats
That's the point... You have to ignore what people tell you is or isn't possible in order to do something no one thought was possible.
This is fascinating. I wish I had professors who could explain such complex theorizes so well.
Modern scientific insights in human evolution, google "GondwanaTalks Verhaegen English".
Time travel to start of the year 2024 is kinda hard
What a wonderful video so many great ideas in a short video.
Tyson is a fool and a fraud
I wish time travel was possible...
GUYS GUESS WHAT
Prof Carroll is the best.
it does not take a smart person to postulate about anything ,,, this proves it
What happened to the comments youtube censorship
Fascinating talk. And even more that this was state of the art-15 YEARS AGO!! May 2010. Seth looks a lot older today 2025 ish. We have learned a load since then… well, still havent heard from zeti reticulum. The truth i predict is gonna be much stranger than Seth thought. I think. Well, we CANT be alone…sooo wtf?? Idk. (Again, the pretty good answer) idk. I wish theyd hurry up and find ET. The suspence is killing me…….
So easy a caveman can do it....switch to geico
She's doing a good job,plus she has a vibe !!
I think she's doing a good job !!
You omit to mention, Wilhelm Reich, who was such a Bergsonian as an undergraduate that he was known amongst student colleagues as a 'crazy Bergsonian'.
Time is a measurement between events so something may have happened 50 years ago and today we measure that time is 50 years time is the measurement another thing that can be slow down sped up or traveled it’s a measurement between events according to Einstein Be safe
I love this ❤❤❤ Thank you!!
@1:18:00, the most dangerous question of the q&a
It's usually a bad sign when a physicist is lecturing and uses an LOLCAT to illustrate a point
All artifacts are ceremonial until someone find out what they were made for.
What about Hawking radiation that supposedly escapes black holes?
Doesn't space expand faster than light in order for light to pass?
Traveling faster than the speed of light means traveling faster than 1 second which means you have to travel to the sun faster than light leaves it.
doing well. petri dishes population count is sometimes the simplest measure of precipitous drop. It's an easy play to display, but, uhm "ecologically speaking" and current population density vs. sustainability in current / changing conditions. Not sure how we honestly lump in "technology" and "ecologically" subsidized but terminal velocity in any number of impacts. Fascinating.
Wow! A lot of good stuff to try to get my head around in that lecture. Going to have to go back over that a few times.
We already have evidence that the universe will not allow time travel paradoxes. The delayed choice double slit experiment. I would like to see the double slit experiment done with at least, just more then two times, the time needed for information moving at the speed of light to be transmitted. If antimatter moves backwards in time (?), then so can information. This would nullify the spooky action at a distance. On non-locality, I am with Albert.
Time travel spoken by Hawkeye lol
This is like measuring distance using a rubber ruler...
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
A lot of the stuff I’ve heard about the way UAPs function is that they have the ability to manipulate gravity, and I’ve also heard the theory that whoever is controlling them may be from the future even humans from the future. So if what this guy is saying is That with a sufficient gravitational force time travel to the past is possible, it seems like that could be what these UAPs are able to do if the gravity manipulation theory is true
Boy are youwrong about Neanderthals!!! I hope you have updated your thinking.
Thank you-your talk was incredibly interesting! I’m going to watch it again.
One scientist pointed out that at the expected 3-5 percent of modern human genes are from the Neanderthal sp, proportionally Neanderthals are at the largest extent of their success in their human-neanderthal hybrid
Too cool...
What a wonderful library.
Is it possible the hands were done over time, a few per visit ? how many participants donated their hand print ? so interesting .
Avengers scriptwriters ain't never seen this video, chris nolan definitely did
I am so glad I found this. Truly illuminating.
