The Hyperthesis

Scientific Literature, Publishing, and Gatekeeping


Listen Later

Join the Patrick, Pheely, and Liam for episode 70 of the Hyperthesis. In our season 5 finale, we discuss everything from supersolids to publishing and accessing the scientific body of knowledge. As an introduction, Liam discusses the idea of supersolids, quantum mechanical wonders that are both a solid and a superfluid at the same time, which means they do not have friction. In our main topic, we discuss the methods and thoughts behind science publications and adding to the body of knowledge, from pre-prints to highly regarded journals, the process can be complex and has a lot of history. Finally, we end with a tale about the publication of Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica.
