The speed of light is a universal physical constant that is important in many aspects of physics. Light travels at a continuous and finite speed of 186,000 miles per second. But did you have note that the speed of light can be manipulated?
In 1999, Lene Hau, a physicist from Denmark, was the first to slow light down to only 38 mph. Later, she could totally stop, control, and move it.
In this episode we take a look at the many problems facing China’s economy. How did the country end up in this position and what does it mean for the rest of the world?

Synthetic data will be a huge industry in five to 10 years. For instance, Gartner estimates that by 2024, 60% of data for AI applications will be synthetic. This type of data and the tools used to create it have significant untapped investment potential. Here’s why.
We are effectively on the cusp of a revolution in how machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) can grow and have even more applications across sectors and industries.
According to the National Institute of Health, when abnormal electrical activity causes the heart to beat too quickly, too slowly, or erratically, the condition is called an arrhythmia. Although most arrhythmias are harmless, some can interfere with the heart’s ability to pump blood.
At 200 times stronger than steel, graphene has been hailed as a super material of the future since its discovery in 2004. The ultrathin carbon material is an incredibly strong electrical and thermal conductor, making it a perfect ingredient to enhance semiconductor chips found in many electrical devices.
But while graphene-based research has been fast-tracked, the nanomaterial has hit roadblocks: in particular, manufacturers have not been able to create large, industrially relevant amounts of the material. New research from the laboratory of Nai-Chang Yeh, the Thomas W. Hogan Professor of Physics, is reinvigorating the graphene craze.

In this excerpt from “Cosmogenesis,” cosmologist Brian Thomas Swimme explains how physics can approach questions about meaning in life.
An artist’s conception of a supernova explosion. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center / ESA / Hubble / L. Calcada In space, things frequently go boom. And recently, on Oct. 9, astronomers observed an extraordinarily colossal boom. NASA’s Swift Observatory, which is specifically designed to spot the most powerful known explosions in the universe today — called gamma-ray bursts — detected an extremely strong such burst.
