Celestia-On air Ep-10 : In Conversation with Philip Moriarty

Celestia On Air presents the podcast with professor Philip Moriarty. He is undoubtedly one of the most distinguished physicists of our time.  Professor Moriarty’s work in the field of nanostructured materials takes our cognizance in the area to a whole new level. His book, "When the Uncertainty Principle Goes to 11: Or How to Explain Quantum Physics with Heavy Metal," is one of the best science books in recent times. We know him for his work on the “Sixty Symbols” YouTube Channel, where he and other physicists explain physics concepts practically and intuitively. This podcast brings forth the nuances of his research in the field of nanostructured materials, his book, his love for physics, music, and much more. Tune in to listen to this discussion with the savant physicist.
