Verge of Discovery is a podcast created for everyone who loves to learn and wants to know more about the most recent developments in the field of science and technology. We interview today's brightest scholars, intellectuals and visionaries in the field of science and technology and bring their knowledge, passion and wisdom to you. Our goal is bring the latest scientific developments to you directly from the minds of people who are propelling us into the future. We want to learn from them and be inspired by them. Just imagine Christopher Columbus telling you personally what it was like to explore the Americas or the Wright brothers describing to you what it was like to fly for the first time. What would that feel like? This is what the Verge of Discovery is about, that moment of personal discovery from the hearts and minds of today's brightest stars.

31:59

Dr. Christopher Clack is a mathematician and research scientist for the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences at Colorado University at Boulder. He joins us to talk about his latest work of building an energy, well more specifically electric, simulator. Dr. Clack discusses how it allows us to seek out the most cost effective approach to rebuild the future energy system in a methodical calculated way. It is a model, so you can investigate almost infinite possibilities and display them for decision makers.…

há 9 years27:49

27:49

Dr. Nicolas Rougier is a full-time research scientist at the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control. During the past decades he’s been working extensively on visual attention in order to understand how we visually explore a scene. Dr. Rougier discusses his work and visual attention and computation neuroscience in particular. He also dives deeper into how seeing is mostly an illusion and that we do not process all visual information that passed through our eyes and we're making deliberate (consciously or not) choices on what we concentrate.…

034: Part 2 - The Quantum Violation of the Pigenhole Principle and its Implications with Dr. Tollaksen 32:05

há 9 years32:05

32:05

Dr. Jeff Tollaksen joins us to discuss his groups’ latest discovery of the quantum violation of the pigeonhole principle. Dr. Tollaksen expands on how the field of physics has transformed from classical physics to quantum physics over the years. He explains how the culture has shifted from a deterministic view to a more capricious view with the acceptance of the quantum theory. We then discuss the quantum violation of the pigenhole principle and it's implications in more detail.…

031: Rockets and the Challenges of Space Travel with Dr. Vanstone 36:22

há 9 years36:22

36:22

Dr. Leon Vanstone is an aerodynamic engineer and a real life rocket scientist. Travelling really fast through the atmosphere generates a lot of heat due to friction from the air. Leon’s work looks at how to stop things that do this from melting. It’s pretty hard to travel fast enough to melt something unless you drop the object from space and so this problem usually only applies to rockets and re-entry vehicles. Leon discusses some of these challenges and tells us a bit more about orbital travel.…
