The Podcast - Why Gravity Leaks Into Extra Dimensions

Note sull'episodio
What if gravity is trillions of times weaker than the other fundamental forces because it is leaking into extra dimensions? In this deep dive, we explore the invisible architecture of reality—starting with everyday motion and Newtonian physics (Galilean relativity) and ending in the mind-bending realm of hidden dimensions. We break down the " crisis" of James Clark Maxwell’s constant speed of light, the groundbreaking Michaelson-Morley experiment that disproved the luminiferous ether, and how these failures paved the way for Einstein’s 4D spacetime. We then tackle the "hierarchy problem"—the astronomical energy gap between particle physics and quantum gravity—using radical theories like the brain-world concept from String Theory. Discover how closed strings (gravitons) might freely propagate through a higher-dimensional "bulk," diluting gravity ...
