The Physicist Who Derived Gravity From Electromagnetism

Last week, it was Nobel Laureate Gerard 't Hooft… Today is another rare treat.

Professor Frederic Schuller never does podcasts but today we go in-depth to how he approaches physics. We cover:

• Potentially solving the measurement problem with something called “Port Hamiltonians” (how probability, not energy, flows between quantum subsystems)

• Constructive gravity: How you can derive Einstein's equations from Maxwell alone

• Why the center of mass doesn't exist in special relativity

• Why gravity may not need quantization after all

• How to learn physics properly, with the proper conceptual rigor

His teaching philosophy has garnered millions of views, and after this conversation, you’ll understand why.

I want to hear from you in the Substack comment section below. I read each and every response.
