Science and U: Is Physics Too Complicated?

Dr. Weiping Yu returns with more Science and U. The renowned physicist comments on the latest science news such as Japanese scientists discovering a way to regrow teeth; the promise to create a diamond nuclear-powered battery that will last for 28,000 years; physicists discovering a new phase in Bose-Einstein condensate of light particles; and more. […]

Science and U: Is Cold Fusion Possible?

Dr. Weiping Yu, the chief science advisor of A Neighbor’s Choice, is back with more Science and U. The physicist comments on the news of the first-ever image of a black hole taken in polarized light. Wherever we find black holes we find magnetic fields. What does this mean? Is the standard model of physics […]

Science and U: Strange New Kind of Magnetism

David Gornoski urges us to question religiosity in all spheres of life, including science. Dr. Weiping Yu is back with more Science and U. In this episode, the physicist talks about the most distant thing in our solar system, a newly discovered space object called ‘Farfarout.’ Dr. Yu also comments on how scientists shot down […]

Science and U: Secret Reality Changing Tech

Dr. Weiping Yu is back with another segment of Science and U. The physicist comments on the latest news from the world of science such as the discovery of a new state of matter called liquid glass, the idea that a supermassive black hole influenced the evolution of life on Earth, US navy’s tech that […]

Science and U: Animal Magnetism Is Real

Dr. Weiping Yu returns with a new segment of Science and U. The physicist comments on fusion reactors that use extraordinary magnets to pressurize elements into superhot plasma and whether they will be effective. Animal magnetism is real, a study claims while stating that snakes repel venom via a magnet-like mechanism. Dr. Yu says this […]

Science and U: Magnetism Produces Quantum Response

The chief science advisor of A Neighbor’s Choice, Dr. Weiping Yu, returns with another segment of Science and U. The physicist comments on the news that scientists in Tokyo have confirmed quantum response to magnetism in cells. “Of course,” Dr. Yu remarks, “when you have magnetic field interact with cells you will see quantum effects.” […]

Science and U: Black Hole Goes Missing

Dr. Weiping Yu returns with another refreshing segment of Science and U. The physicist comments on the claim that astronomers have found the oldest supermassive black hole in the universe and another, more puzzling, observation of a missing black hole. Dr. Yu once again asserts that there is no black hole at the center of […]

Science and U: First Sign of Aliens?

Dr. Weiping Yu returns with another refreshing segment of Science and U. Dr. Yu comments on the claim by Harvard professor Avi Loeb that alien debris passed near Earth in 2017 and that it was the first sign of intelligent life outside Earth. A new research suggests that “maybe ‘dark matter’ doesn’t exist after all.” […]

Science and U: Gold into Magnets

Dr. Weiping Yu returns with another exciting segment of Science and U. The physicist comments on the invention of a new glue that’s activated by a magnetic field; a new study that turns gold into magnets; using gold to kill bacteria; NASA scientists achieving long-distance ‘quantum teleportation;’ and more. Listen to the full episode for […]

Science and U: Bacteria Follow Earth’s Magnetic Field

Dr. Weiping Yu returns with another segment of Science and U. The physicist starts the segment by commenting on the discovery that says chemical-shuttling bacteria follow the Earth’s magnetic field. Are energy fragments the fundamental building blocks of the universe? What should we make of the 10-year plan by U.S. fusion scientists to build a […]
