Show overview
Strong Interactions has been publishing since 2022, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 5 episodes. That works out to roughly 3 hours of audio in total. Releases follow an irregular cadence.
Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 30 min and 31 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. It is catalogued as a EN-language Science show.
There hasn’t been a new episode in the last ninety days; the most recent episode landed 5 months ago. Published by Maria Żurek and Markus Diefenthaler.
From the publisher
Strong Interactions is a podcast about exploring a new frontier in nuclear physics at the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider, by Maria Żurek and Markus Diefenthaler.
Latest Episodes
Ep 5Transverse-Momentum-Dependent Structure, with Elena Boglione
Transverse-momentum-dependent PDFs (TMD PDFs, or simply TMDs) offer a powerful way to probe the three-dimensional structure of protons, neutrons, and nuclei, and to test quantum theory at its limits. In our fifth episode of “Stories Straight from the Heart of Matter,” we explore the internal structure of nucleons through TMDs with our guest, Elena Boglione from the University of Turin.
Ep 4Lattice QCD, with Martha Constantinou
In our fourth episode of “Stories Straight from the Heart of Matter,” we discuss Lattice QCD—a method for calculating observables of the strong interaction using methods of statistical physics and advanced computing. We explore exactly how this works and the role Lattice QCD will play for the Electron-Ion Collider with our expert, Professor Martha Constantinou of Temple University.
Ep 3Parton Distribution Functions, with Tim Hobbs
In our third episode of stories straight from the heart of matter, we talk about the connections between the Electron-Ion Collider and High-Energy Physics, in particular parton distribution functions. What are parton distribution functions or short PDFs, how we extract them, and why they are of importance for Nuclear and High-Energy Physics, we learn from our expert, Dr. Tim Hobbs of Argonne National Laboratory.
Ep 2Spin Structure, with Renee Fatemi
In our second episode of stories straight from the heart of matter, we have talked about the spin on the proton and how we can study spin structure with our expert, Dr. Renee Fatemi from the University of Kentucky.
Ep 1Nucleon Structure, with Robert Jaffe
In our very first episode of stories straight from the heart of matter, we have dived right inside the protons. We have learned about the internal structure of these basic and yet complex building blocks of matter from our guest, Dr. Robert L. Jaffe from MIT.
