  • FLASHCARDS! Why Your Suitcase Is a Math Problem
    2025/07/18

    In this episode of Flashcards Friday at Math! Science! History! Gabrielle Birchak unzips the fascinating world of packing problems, the mathematical puzzles behind fitting everything into your suitcase. Discover how optimization theory and combinatorial math are at play every time you pack, ship, or store something efficiently. Whether you're prepping for vacation or running a tech company, the same mathematical rules apply.

    3 Take-aways! (Pun intended!)

    1. What packing problems are and why they matter in math, logistics, and data storage.

    2. Why packing problems are so difficult, and why your perfect suitcase is more impressive than it seems.

    3. How optimization techniques like sorting, rotating, and greedy filling are used in real-world applications, and how to apply them to your next trip.

  • Peter Higgs and the Hidden Force That Shapes the Universe
    2025/07/15
    In this episode of Math! Science! History! we take a walk through the Scottish Highlands with Peter Higgs, figuratively and historically, to uncover the quiet moment in 1964 when a simple hike sparked a revolutionary idea in physics. Discover how the weak nuclear force and electromagnetism are deeply connected by symmetry, why mass was such a mystery to physicists in the 20th century, and how the Higgs field changed everything. From the elegance of theoretical predictions to the drama of the 48-year search for the Higgs boson, this story is not just about particles, it's about patience, creativity, and discovery. 3 Things You’ll Learn in This Episode: How symmetry connects the weak nuclear force to electromagnetism and why that connection broke down. What the Higgs field is and how it gives mass to particles like W and Z bosons. Why Peter Higgs's quiet walk in the mountains became one of the most important moments in modern physics.
