- Friendship with Science is a series of fun conversations about science happening in India but relevant universally, as all good science is! These conversations cover deep and broad ideas of science, from atoms to genes, from the sun to making science toys at home, from tiger counting using genetic tools to lake health in Bangalore and much much more. The conversations move seamlessly across disciplinary boundaries, across scales and times, they are about physics, they are about biology, they are about chemistry, they are about mathematics, they are about how science is done, they are about how scientists think, they are about how scientists communicate, they are about how scientists chill and how they don't. In short, they are about making friendship with science!
This episode is with Professor K Sridhar, a Physicist and Professor at the Azim Premji University in Bangalore. Prof Sridhar got his BSc and PhD in Mumbai after which he spent years in London and Geneva at the CERN. Years later he came back and started as a faculty member with TIFR, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai. Sridhar has made deep contributions in the broad area of theoretical high energy physics and in addition to his stint at TIFR, he holds many positions across the world in Paris, London, the CERN and so on. He has written a book in theoretical energy physics called "Particle Physics of Brane Worlds and Extra Dimensions", published by Cambridge University Press. Sridhar's personality and contributions don't quite end there. He is also a novelist and has written a very interesting book called "Twice Written" based on Bombay and has an even more interesting book, "Ajita", coming up. Keep an eye out for that.
Taking the conversation up with Prof. Sridhar are Shashi Thutupalli, who may or may not be a scientist and Biswa Kalyan Rath, who is definitely not a comedian!

Gold Content! Copper Audio!
The static 🫨😵💫
😂😂😂.
😂😂😂
Justice for 2 past 2 curious
EXACTLY! How badly i am waitingggggg for nee episodes
BRING BACK
Humari 2P2C ki mangay puri karo just like Kumari k saath Koitus karne k liye dono tangay ko duri karo 🏴
Appreciate what you get vs Whine about what you want challenge (impossible)
Watch trifecta of reality. Its the same idea but way way better.
Biswa you are the only one that can do something like Veritesium, smarter everyday, physics girl etc ... More aligned with Indian audience ane text books. So pls pls pls don't stop with just this episode and have more structure and interesting discussions/questions/scenarios subsequently.
veritiasium is next level, he is phd in physics. maybe he can create content similar to smarter every day but veritasium, i dont think so.
Yes PhD does help in some aspects but it's not impossible...Yes he can't match Derek's level of content coz of the years he's been in this..but sure Biswa could bring in something similar for indian pop science culture.
William osman at least
He is way tooo lazy for that. In his own words 😅
@@mayankpant5376 yeah but he can do vsauce level stuff
Don't stop even if you don't get views. You will. I will watch.
Count me in!
Finally podcast from people who actually know something talking with people who know something
So true!!
The quality of comments on a video is the best judge of an audience. Loved it.
It is so funny to see both of them nod their heads together at 7:43.
Thank you a lot Biswa.. such a great content and subtle way of explaining.. we need more videos in future
I didn't take PCM subjects in school, just finished my law degree, and have no ties whatsoever with particle physics or atoms or philosphy or being and becoming, but I would happily, without hesitation, religiously watch and even pay for content like this coming from Indian creators and thinkers. I'm so so glad this popped up in my recommendations. Please don't discontinue this series. ❤
You are an anomaly/ exception.
Yup
For sure h is@@LordMisunderstoodSnape
I love how even though these are professors of the top order, if they don't know something, they very openly admit it and not try to bullshit their way through it. Amazing stuff Biswa!!❤
Would absolutely love to see a conversation between Dr. Sridhar and Dr. Vikas Divyakirti on philosophy and consciousness. Not a lot of people can talk about such subjects so eloquently while making the conversation so engaging. Thanks for the episode Biswa! 🍻
This is the best thing available on internet today.
Biswa please please don't stop this series...even though you don't get views 🥹❤️🙏
Great discussion. Waiting for part 2. Biswa, using spectroscopy, we can determine the composition gasses in the planetary atmosphere of transiting planets in front of their host stars. This would allow us to actually say, for example, if an exoplanet in Trappist solar system has oxygen in its atmosphere, just by looking at the spectral lines coming from the host star's light passing through the atmosphere of the exoplanet which is (here's the key part) transiting in front of its host star, in our vision.
We got Biswa's video before GTA 6
U have no idea how happy this video made me. Thanks a lot Biswa
Had pleasure to meet Sridhar sir few months back he is really cool and an amazing professor such a delight!
Very interesting discussion. Never thought I would see a proper science discussion with depth from Indian scene and such production quality.
Please do more of these!
Thanks for the great content. Please keep this up.
Indian version of StarTalk with Neil deGrasse Tyson. But thanks for introducing the concept Biswa. Its high time we get aware of our own scientific legacy from shows and podcasts as such ❤
2024 is crazy biswa upload a video ehhe
So Happy UA-cam algo recommended this ❤
We need more episodes ✨
This is absolutely amazing. Please, Biswa, keep uploading more episodes as part of this series.
“The actual gold from of alchemy was it’s contribution to the development of chemistry as a subject in the future” min 32:00 ish - Prof Shridhar dropping bombs right there!
Wow!! Thanku for bringing ppl from scientific community ❤
The kind of content we really really need. Thanks for this and please don’t stop making these ♥️
Kudos Biswa for doing this! At least release 7 episodes. Please.
Excellent work!! We need many more of these, the one thing we dearly miss in our society is the scientific temperament
By far one of the best and really good communication.. thankyou Biswa Bhai.. Hope you continue with this initiative
Bless you Biswa for this episode has single handedly explained so many questions that I've had and some that I didn't even think about till today.
Beautifully explained! Such discussions are needed to instigate the scientific temperament in everyone!! Looking forward to many such conversations!! Also even I am now curious if anyone comes our with a proper explanation of a link between Atom and Atma, if there is any! Great job!
I am sooooo happy this is happening.
Biswa ... exactly the science communication niche that was needed to fill. I love you so much for doing this
Loved it! Thanks for bringing this type of content. Please keep this up and post these regularly.
Keep doing it brother! Love from Mumbai (and a fellow Odia)
Just skipped to 6 min to see the conversation .. and within 10 seconds.. i learned entomology of the word ‘atom’.
Now i know what i will be listening to while driving to work tomorrow
Thanks ❤
Perhaps the most intelligent discussion I have ever seen/heard. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
We needed this!! And Biswas is the only one in our space who could have done it...waiting for the next episode!!
Thank you Biswa for bringing this out. Much more useful than the usual crap on social media.
First,I saw the new vid of biswa with science discussion *YAY* 🤩🎉
Then I saw the description
*Holy-Mata-of-Gyan-achievements* 😮👐
Thank you so much for the this amazing series.
We need more content like this, keep it coming
Biswa.... You are the best. Please keep doing this. And also with other interesting subjects like history biology geography and also the interconnections of all subjects.
Please Biswa continue this .... I will watch each one of them
Great content. Hoping to see STEM + Philosophy in this series!
Uhuhu super excited for this! Awesome work Biswa!!! ❤
Please continue this series ✨
Please don't stop this.❤
Basically Mendeleev was a data analyst in field of Chemistry.
Yup
forwarding this to all ppl I know......very interesting conversation!!
Breeze of cool Air, Biswa! 💛
Can this immediately be part of school education, please, and thank you. It is simply blowing my mind that my science hating brain was so engaged during this entire video.
❤ more power to you with such rich discussion. We definitely need love of science been strengthened than grasping science with fear of not knowing.
You attitude is strong I saw what confidence look like and how I can develop to that level.
Thanks a lot for doing this Biswa! Please do it more often and try to include more physicist and biologist. You're doing a good job! Impressive, brother:)
That was fun. Thank you all. Biswa! Ekdum mast aadmi. Loved your questions on radiation.
Description sounds amazing
This is amazing! Wow!
Glad that this is not a social media growth hack podcast!
Great content. Looking forward to more episodes..
1 hour from publishing of the video and just 188 views .... Where is this generation going
11 hours and only 7.8 k views
Cringe
Not everybody is nerd I guess
Great series! Also, Prof. K Sridhar does look like an old Ashish Shakya, and sounds like him as well....
Road to Indian 'cosmos' hope you guys call Niel as well 🎉
Love❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you biswa bhaiyaa
Enjoyed this throughly
58:50 "Mendel is peas" - underrated joke
On acceptance of atom:
The idea of atom was accepted en masse after Einstein's paper on brownian motion. Later work based on this paper allowed the experimental calculation of atomic size and Avogadro's number
1:07:05 On spectroscopy with planets
I am not sure about surface composition but atmosphere - yes. When a stars light passes through the atmosphere of a planet, some freq will get absorbed and the rest will pass. By looking at the missing lines in spectrum (those that were absorbed), you can comment on the atmosphere. That's how earth like atmosphere in other star systems are determined
Thank you for doing this. What a riveting discussion. Hope to see more discussions in this series.
After so long Biswa is back
Keep this series going dude!
Loved this concept ❤
please give us more such conversations and more depth!!
Amazing amazing...
Refreshing content
amazing series!
Good initiative,biswa. Keep going and please bring more and more people from the field of science. They deserve much more attention than those dumb celebrities.
Very nice! Please keep doing this!
Really nice discussion. Please continue this
Thank you for this❤
The professor we need, the netflix professor we GOT! Keep such content coming!
this is great!
Liked how Biswa is sitting there with his hands down listening like a curious student :)
Excellent content...Great Biswa!!
Super, super, super!
Great initiative. Biswa needs to approach these discussions like Samdhish Bhatia to keep it relaxed.
good , please do a series on cosmology too , solar system , stars , galaxies , black holes and universe all is so fasicnating
Provide this in spotify too
This episode is pulling me like gravity.
This is what an intp needs
Great!
We need more.
Biswa is so versatile and scientists are not so serious anymore!
Just to chip in biswa's questiin if atman and atom are same, i think atman is part of something bigger called paratman the supreme so it is a divisible part of something bigger while atom is whole in itself, mixing all elements together might be reactionary but mixing all atman together will bring in completeness.
Niche content. Please continue. ❤
Thank you for bringing out these science professors... Otherwise there is so much verisatium stuff floating around
Scientists/Science deserve to be cool!! Keep doing it more.
Loved it
I subscribed after this video. It's that good
Gold content. Please keep it up.
Love it yar
At 1:06:00 and around this, when they are discussing fire vs. the material being heated by it, I think they might have answered it myuch better if they just introduced and talked a bit about the electron itself. They could have much easier explained that it is the electrons within the atoms that just jump levels of energy, and then they coming back to their original position gives out the light in different frequencies(wavelength). So when wood or charcoal is burning, it is essentially carbon's and oxygen's electrons getting excited and then releasing energy when they combine to make carbon-dioxide. (All these words are common enough terms that any layman budding scientist would understand). So fire is like the ions and electrons jumping levels of energy as they move around in air, all of them at the same time give the macroscopic feel of fire.. it is not a continuous thing like water at all, just stuff moving around at higher energy than its normal calm (ground) state, and then releasing it to get back there. In the process, these bombarding light particles, ions and elctrons are hitting the Iron rod in the middle of the fire, and transfer some of its kinetic energy through basic newtonian and thermodynamic physics to the electrons in the Iron atoms. When these elctrons are trying to get back to their own ground state, they radiate a different frequency of light, their own color of red. So I think, talking about electron would have been good as well, before going into quantum physics, and atomic structure even, or uncertainity principle.
