Symmetry and the Laws of Nature by Umesh Waghmare
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fundamental principles of symmetry in nature through this enlightening lecture. Delve into how symmetry constrains physical laws and interactions, and learn about the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking. Examine curious questions about everyday phenomena, such as momentum conservation and the behavior of sound waves in different materials. Discover the role of symmetry in magnetism, including the Curie temperature and magnetic interactions with electric fields. Investigate the piezoelectric properties of crystals like ZnO and compare them to materials like MgO. Gain insights into how symmetry principles shape our understanding of the physical world and their implications for technological applications.
