Immense, strange and infinite, the world of modern physics often feels impenetrable to the undiscerning eye; a jumble of muons, gluons and quarks are impossible to explain without several degrees and a research position at CERN.

But it doesn’t have to be this way! In this livestream, world-renowned theoretical physicist and bestselling author Sean Carroll will guide you through the biggest ideas in the universe. In an elegant and simple way, Carroll unravels a web of theories to get to the heart of the truths they represent about the world around us. Sean delves into the baffling and beautiful world of quantum mechanics. From Schrödinger to Feynman, he travels through the quantum revolution with the twentieth century’s greatest minds. Exploring how several decades of research overturned centuries of convention, he provides a dazzling tour of the most exciting ideas in modern science.
