 | 430th Brookhaven Lecture Presented by Mike Blaskiewicz | Wednesday, December 05, 2007 | Length: 01:02:48 RHIC's current collision rate, known as luminosity, stands at thousands per second. But RHIC physicists want more. One approach to achieving a higher collision rate is known as stochastic cooling.

Though this approach has been used in specialized, low energy accelerators, it has never been made to work at high energy or with tightly bunched beams, until now. | ||

 | Einstein's Biggest Blunder: A Cosmic Mystery Story Presented by Lawrence Krauss | Wednesday, May 30, 2007 | Length: 01:12:26 The standard model of cosmology built up over 20 years is no longer accepted as accurate. New data suggest that most of the energy density of the universe may be contained in empty space. Remarkably, this is exactly what would be expected if Einstein's cosmological constant really exists. If it does, its origin is the biggest mystery in physics and presents huge challenges for the fundamental theories of elementary particles and fields.

 | The Origin of Mass and the Feebleness of Gravity Presented by Frank Wilczek | Friday, April 21, 2006 | Length: 01:12:01 BSA Distinguished Lecture presented by Frank Wilczek, co-winner of the 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics. Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2 asserts that energy and mass are different aspects of the same reality.

Although it has been well documented that gender affects the prevalence of disorders such as depression and Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder, recent head injury trials suggest that both age and sex affect the likelihood and degree of recovery from injuries to the brain. While girls are more likely to die following a traumatic brain injury than boys, that result is reversed after the age of 50, when men die twice as often. | ||
