  • Guess Who's Back? (for Season 7)
    Nov 1 2024

    Join Patrick, Pheely, and Liam as we recap our summer of research as we start our seventh season of the Hyperthesis. We provide updates about our summer, going a little bit in depth from everything we did. This includes using dams as inspiration for ultracold atom theory, creating digital twins of forests, and talking about the publication from some of our hosts and past guests. We end the episode with an update from the world of science over the summer.

  • Scientific Method in Theoretical Physics
    Jun 8 2024

    Join the Hyperthesis team as we wrap up our sixth season for a summer break filled with research and travel. To start, we discuss a publication put out by Pheely based on work done during his Master's degree. He goes into the intricacies of clustering and the idea of no free lunch as he examines trade-offs of clustering and avoiding clustering. As we segue into our main topic, we discuss the details around the scientific method and how it differs from what people are taught. We also delve into the philosophy surrounding creating hypothesis and theories, and how we know where to start doing research. Finally, Liam ends with a story on Unruh and his discovery of analogue gravity.

  • Give Us Some Space (Exploration)!
    Jun 1 2024

    Space! The final frontier. Join the Hyperthesis team on our one hour mission to explore space and what the future of space exploration holds for humanity. Before delving into the topic of space exploration, including the why and how, Liam shares his thoughts on the recent Canadian Association of Physicists Congress, including some great presentations and the quality of the food. Pheely ends off the episode with a story about Voyager and just how we keep it going and when it might die.
