The Hyperthesis

Black Holes to the Extreme(al) with Billy Sievers


Listen Later

Welcome to the Hyperthesis, where this week, we welcome special guest Billy Sievers. Billy is a Ph.D Student at McMaster University studying self-intersecting surfaces inside black holes and connections to quantum gravity. Before we dive into his research (and get a fun quiz on dimensions), Liam tells us about a trinary black hole system and it's discovery and chaos. Patrick ends the episode with a cosmology-adjacent person, Hendrik Lorentz.
