One of the hottest topics in modern physics is trying to understand the scattering of fundamental particles with neither shape nor size - one step up from nothingness. Amazingly, attempts to understand these simple processes theoretically require state-of-the-art mathematics. Theorist Ruth Britto, at Trinity College Dublin, is one of the leaders of this branch of physics. In this edition, she describes how she became interested in this subject and why she finds it so fascinating.This is one of a series of interviews given by world-class experts to Graham on the themes he explores in his new book The Universe Speaks in Numbers.  Hosted on Acast.

The Universe Speaks in Numbers: Ruth Britto interviewed by Graham Farmelo

Hailing from Harvard and MIT, Trinity's Ruth Britto could very well be the next scientist to discover a new principle of physics.  Her research looks at the nature of our universe and what it is made of through mathematical equations.  She even knows who feeds equations to Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory, but doesn't quite claim to be a fan of the show.  Listen in to try and get a grasp on what this amazing theoretical physicist does on a day to day basis.

How do we explain the universe we observe? With Associate Professor Ruth Britto.
