Geçen dönem Bağcılar’daki bir liseden öğrencilerimiz Boğaziçi’ne ders almaya gelmişti. Sonrasında kampüsü birlikte gezdik. Eğitim, bireyin çevresinde başlayıp yine kendisinde tamamlanan bir süreçtir. En büyük temennim, ileride hepsini hayallerine kavuşmuş görmek.

This year has left mathematicians reeling as AI models are increasingly solving seemingly intractable maths problems. Terence Tao, the world's leading mathematician, says a rethink of the entire field is the only way out of the crisis https://t.co/krju5wFdH9

Ashoke Sen on AI:

"I think in its present form, it remains a very useful tool for research. If eventually it overtakes us and solves the problem of quantum gravity and all other forces, I'll be happy. Even if I do not understand the solution, it should make experimental predictions (like the ratio of the muon and the electron mass) that we should be able to verify. Till then we have to keep working!"

Mezuniyet töreninde bu yıl hadise geçen yıl ise Sertap erener çıkmış :) öte tarafta ise memleketteki mezuniyet törenlerinin yüzde 98. 7'sinde telifsiz diye Karayip korsanları jenerik müziği çalıyor... Sonra yeter ki iste ve çalış sende başarırsın diyoruz gençlere snnsjs

[Fermat's Library @fermatslibrary]

American physicist Edward Witten explains why it wasn’t until Einstein's work that we fully understand the reason behind the inverse square law, and why it's specifically a square rather than some arbitrary decimal

[Didier 'Dirac's ghost' Gaulin @DiracGhost]

Guess what? The legend, Michael E. Peskin himself, wrote this excellent primer (in about 100 pages) titled 'Lectures on the Theory of the Weak Interaction', and lucky for us, it's publicly available, on arXiv!

Goes well with his four lectures that you can find on Youtube as well!

Congratulations to Clay Córdova, Shu-Heng Shao, Thomas Dumitrescu and Yifan Wang on winning the 2026 New Horizons in Physics Prize for generalizing the notion of symmetry in various ways, and for exploring the consequences of these generalized symmetries, in quantum field theory, particle physics, condensed matter physics, string theory, and quantum information theory. https://t.co/awmRtAX5vT
