Thanks for this wonderful video. Every physicist knows something of these stories, but you are putting them in the context of real history. Planck, Einstein, Bohr, Boltzmann, Schrodinger, and Edison vs Tesla and more are becoming more vivid to me.
Fantastic. The fact that Planck and Einstein were buddies who had a little band together warms my heart. I wish there was a movie about their friendship and discoveries
That would be fantastic! Their relationship got more complicated in the next video but that just makes it even more interesting. Anyone know a movie producer??
@@Kathy_Loves_Physics btw how do you do your research? Are there any physics history book you'd reccomend? Preferably ones that feature actual physics and math and not JUST history.
Alpaca Strangely enough, I often start with Wikipedia and then I go to where they reference it and see what those books say and then go to their references and try to get the original source. I’m also a huge fan of searching for things on Google books and then putting it chronologically and looking for the earliest source. My favorite book about the history of colon mechanics is a book called “Einstein and the quantum” by Douglass Stone. He is a physicist first so his physics is top notch. Obviously, it focuses mostly on Einstein.
@@Kathy_Loves_Physics Physicist George Gamow wrote a number of histories of science for popular consumption, as well as an interesting, and humorous series of short stories (the Mister Thompkins books). Kathy, if you haven't read any of these, I guarantee you will enjoy them. He also wrote an great autobiography called "My World Line".
I love this stuff. Putting this together and presenting it like a history lesson and avoiding getting bogged down in mathematical minutiae is so enjoyable to watch. Thanks!
Kathy, of all your wonderful videos, this is one of the best! Seamlessly weaving the personal with the scientific information truly brings the stories to life. Great stuff.
I wish I had discovered this channel earlier. It is unusual to find the details of physics and history intertwined and not dumbed down. #consilience #howtounderstandeverything
First video and I'm subbed. This was great. You have a way with words and your delivery is excellent. I stayed focused throughout the entire video which doesn't usually happen. I can't wait to see part II.
Thank you for this video. By bringing Planck to life the lesson is made so much more interesting. Not being educated in mathematics, I was only tangentially acquainted with Planck so this was very enlightening. Great work.
@@Kathy_Loves_Physics About a year or so older since I told you I liked your youtube channel,and even I have learned a thing or two about science.We all look forward to your next video.
Thank you. Thank you for Planck’s quote on entropy being an additive magnitude and probability being multiplicative. I never understood the origin of Boltzman’s constant. No professor or book has explained it so succinctly as Planck!
Thank you. Thank you so much. An inspiring story. Really love listening to you. It reminds me of my physics and chemistry classes from over 30 years ago
Congratulations for all your videos! They are all so well documented and well told thay I've rushed over almost all of them. What about astronomy? There are fantastic histories there, like the one that Johanes Kepler was so miope that he never saw a single star and, yet, he came with his famous three laws, thanks to the histeric Tyco Brahe's data. It's a lovely history!
Thank you for your videos. They are well researched, to the point, very interesting and sober. I especially appreciate the fact that you do not try to sensationalise your material in a misguided attempt to generate “interest”.
One of a kind, brilliant, funny and creative, That is (Dr. ) Kathy, not Planck. Thank you for another fabulous lecture. I love this channel. Raphael NYC
I wouldn't want to be a bystander in your videos, Kathy 😛 Can we call the Solvay Conference the Mustache Conference? All the men but one or two had mustaches.
Love the video. I always got bored with classes like business statistics so I bought three or four books on the history of Math, and found I could easily take the teacher off subject and into more interesting discussions on the people's lives and history in the given formula of the day. In concern of your discussion though, at time 5:54 when you say, "but then Planck had a problem", I feel (by experience in studying math) you may have skipped two years worth of pre thought, scientific introspection, and re-hashing of everything he had read and learned, not a fault of your speech, in fact it was said well, as most math teachers all uniformly use the same language in proofs, for instance, "It therefore follows", usually means twenty steps later in the proof, :) I feel there is a bit more I will be looking into to explore what the two or three sentences involve, after that time stamp. The inability for anyone to explain the physical relationship of Plancks constant to the classical physics has always upset me. Currently I am believing Frank Znidarsics explanation of Plancks constant as being that missing classical physics link, "simply put", by considering it derivable by finding the change of velocity from a standing wave to a traveling wave of a electron wave, and placing that inside hooks law for springs, and searching for an impedance match in the system. alienscientist.com/files/Znidarsic.pdf
One of the amazing things about your talk is how you show this scientist influenced this one. Or this one was not influenced. Both important in seeing the science and physics moving forward and developing.
Thanks, I feel like I’m a science history doesn’t include the most important part: how the idea was developed and argued, and accepted and rejected. All of which is how science progresses.
Great video💚 but I expected better (to talk about his early life in Berlin, about his enthusiasm as a young man, and about the German government’s investment of millions in the Technical Research Institute in Berlin where Planck’s appearance was from there) But I loved it very much especially the Nernest part and the Solvay Conference I did not know this before Thank you **I have added an Arabic translation to the video and I hope that it will be accepted .
Thank you thank you thank you for adding an Arabic translation. That makes me so happy. I will talk A LOT more about the Kaiser Wilhelm Society and Planck's managerial work in the next video. Thanks again, Kathy
Your enthusiasm is so infectious and your clarity of explication is a delight. I shall visit your lectures regularly at a pace commensurate with my ability to understand. Just a note. My father used to say that a Quantum Shift was a naughty little garment that revealed everything,, but a semantic shift ? Hélas! That is made of flannel.' As to language he would argue that it was no accident that German was conducive to Physic. How one frames the question to one's self can predispose the answer, Be back
Thanks Kathy, another great video - fascinating and informative. I look forward to part zwei! So much cousin marrying is v disturbing, I wonder if they got the idea from Charles Darwin!
There is a very good video by Physics Explained on the Ultraviolet Catastrophe with the mathematics behind it. It shows how much of a genius Max Planck was by changing the formula from integral to sum in short terms.
Thanks Kathy. In my own ideas,entropy has to stop at absolute zero as there is no motion of atoms. If there is no actions of the particles,entropy has stopped.
I was hoping to find an explanation of the connection between the macro-view of entropy (Q(1/T1 - 1/T2) and the micro-view of it with Boltzman's constant. Have you done that elsewhere?
This is a nice summary about Max Planck, you got one minor detail wrong. Max Planck was born in Kiel, yes he died in Göttingen. (Sorry for being a smart ass, but I am also a German engineer)
Kathy, I enjoy your channel and it's dive into the personal history of physics! P.S. Who is the artist of the oil painting in many vids? Ridling? Riding? I'm trying to find this and other examples from his or her portfolio. Thanks
Hey Kathy, is Helmholtz the same guy that subwoofer ports are tuned to? Secondly, is Wien the guy the oscillator feedback bridge is named after? If so, I'd love to see videos about them in the fall! Love your videos!
The Wien Bridge was called after Max Wien, who was a cousin of the famous physicist Wilhelm Wien which she was talking about. Hermann von Helmholtz hower did some work on electrodynamics too, most likely that it was named after him.
@@sAimen_assi Thanks! It does seem that the Helmholtz in the subwoofer ports is named after Hermann von Helmholtz. Helmholtz was also the guy who tasked his student Hertz with discovering an experiment to validate Maxwell's equations which is why Hertz discovered radio waves.
My mother got her undergraduate degree I music in about 1930. They had to take a class on the theory of sound. It was based on Helmholtz. Same guy? Music students + Helmholtz! They hated it.🤣
I had never heard of her so I looked her up and she looks fascinating. However, if this really long long long long list of videos that I’m planning on making and it takes me a while to get some new people. Sorry for the delay- Kathy.
@@Kathy_Loves_Physics there are only 2-3 minute clips about her on RUclips and I can't find any books on her on Audible, so whenever/if you get a chance, it would be much appreciated! I haven't followed anyone on Patreon, but I'm very much considering having you be my first 😂😂 I know this is such a long comment, but I watched all of your Bohr and Einstein videos earlier and I thought you mentioned a video covering the 1927 Solvay Conference. Are those posted in RUclips? 🤗🤗🤗
It is weird that all of the things described in here happened when kings/emperors and military generals prepared to kill each other. And used their findings to create weapons to kill each other
"Nernst started talking with a wealthy soda magnate named Ernst Solvay..." I thought, as other might, that Solvay made drinking sodas.

The process was an improvement over the earlier Leblanc process." (Per
Planck also played a key role in the recognition of Einstein's early work on special relativity. Without Planck, Einstein's work might not have been recognized for a long time, if at all.

Can you please do a video on Mileva Einstein-Maric? Did she ever get any credit on Einstein’s papers?
I see Marie Curie has also attended the Solvay Conference.
Oh yes, always. Did you watch my video about her? She was amazing!
Planck got involved in blackbody radiation when the German bureau of standards asked him to find a way increase the brightness of light bulbs
I confess to my inability to comprehend any of this.
Planck: My wife calls me 'uncle.'
Einstein: My wife is nowhere near when I'm with my cousin.
Wait!! But he was born in 23 April 1858 in kiel , Germany.
You are wrong.
Sorry about getting the birthplace wrong.
