This is my journey to find all of the fundamental constants of nature which took some surprising turns. Check out Brilliant who sponsored part of this video: https://brilliant.org/dos
When you learn physics, you very quickly encounter the physical constants of nature, things like the gravitational constant, the speed of light in a vacuum, planck's constant, the elementary charge things like that. These are numbers which we believe are the same everywhere in the universe, for all time. They are baked into our laws of physics and are very special, because if they were even a few percent different, then the Universe wouldn’t exist and neither would we. They are also fundamental because we can’t derive them from any underlying theory, we just have to take them as being true.
So I wanted to go on a quest to find all of the fundamental physical constants and collect them all together so you can see them all in one place, because that’s the kind of thing I do on this channel. So this video is the story of me doing that. But it took some fascinating twists and turns along the way, and the final set was definitely not what I was expecting, because it doesn’t actually include the ones we are familiar with, the ones I just mentioned: speed of light, gravitational constant, planck’s constant. Watch to find out why.

How many fundamental constants are there? By John Baez
https://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/constants.html
Note that his final set is a little different to mine which is explained in his article. I chose my set to be the easiest to understand.
Here are the actual numbers for all these dimensionless constants from David Black

Music, art, and everything else by Dominic Walliman
Everything you need to know about gravitational waves. In February 2016 scientists announced the first detection of gravitational waves by humans on Earth. This was a huge, world changing, discovery. The gravitational waves were caused by a pair of colliding black holes 1.3 billion light years away 1.3 billion years ago. This video summaries all the of the mind blowing facts about the gravitational waves and describes LIGO, the incredibly sensitive telescope that detected them.

Errata and clarifications.
I endeavour to be as accurate as possible in my videos, but I am human and definitely don’t know everything, so there are sometimes mistakes. Also, because my videos are summaries of some quite complex science, I make simplifications. Some of these are intentional because I don’t have time to go into full detail, but sometimes they are unintentional and here is where I clear them up.
1. I got the month of the original detection wrong! It was September 2015, not November 2015. Silly me, my apologies.
2. “1.3 billion years ago, 1.3 billion light years away” This is incorrect and an oversight on my part. I completely forgot to take into account the expansion of the Universe. The resulting black hole is 1.3 billion light years from us today, but was closer to us when the collision happened, which means that it happened less than 1.3 billion years ago. I tried to work out exactly when but was stumped because I couldn’t find the function for the acceleration of the expansion of the universe. The redshift of the signal from the black holes was about 10%, so I thought the collision was 10% closer in time than 1.3 billion years i.e. 1.18 billion years, but I think it might be a bit more complicated than that.
3. LIGO schematic animation. I made a couple of silly errors here. The first circular mirror that the laser hits should be 90º to the way I oriented it: half the laser light is transmitted and half reflected, each one going up a different arm.
4. LIGO schematic animation. When the laser bounced back and forth it should bounce between the two suspended mirrors and not go all the way back to the diagonal mirror.
5. VIRGO is near Pisa, not at Trento as I drew on the map. I said the right thing but drew the wrong thing. My apologies.
6. ‘A second even more powerful collision.” Wrong again! The second collision was less powerful and the signal was more buried in the noise.
I’m not happy with the number of flat out mistakes I made on this one! I will try better in the future. I blame it on the Christmas spirits.

This video explores all of the things in the Universe from our Earth and local Solar System, out to the Milky Way Galaxy and looks at all of the different kinds of stars from Brown Dwarfs to Red Supergiant Stars. Then to the things they explode into like white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Then we look at all the other kinds of galaxy in the universe, blazars, quasars and out to the cosmic microwave background and the big bang. It covers most of the different things that we know about in the Universe.

Every evening near Vancouver BC, a huge gathering of crows descend on a single block at Still Creek Drive, Burnaby. It is crazy!
Today is July the 3rd. And for us humans on earth, today is the day that we're the furthest away from the sun that we’ll be all year. So why is it so warm? Where I live, it's summertime and we've just gone through our first heatwave of the year, and you'd think it would be cold when you're far away from the sun and warm when you're close to the sun. On the 3rd of January. But it's the other way around. This can all be explained by the fact the earth has a tilted axis like my head. Right now, in the summer, we're tilted towards the sun, so we're getting more heat from it. Just to give you some concrete numbers. We're getting about 7% less energy from the sun by being far away now compared to January the 3rd, when we're closer, we get 7% more. But the difference in tilt means tilting towards the sun gives about 500 percent as much energy as being tilted away. For here in London. It obviously varies depending on how high up or down in latitude you are. And obviously everything's flipped for the southern hemisphere because it's their winter at the moment, so it does kind of make sense for them. But it's interesting. This combination means that in the Northern Hemisphere we have slightly longer summers and slightly shorter winters, whereas in the southern hemisphere it's the opposite way around. They have slightly shorter summers and slightly longer winters. So in conclusion, as they always say, nobody cares how far away you are from the sun. If you've got a wonky axis.
Calculus isn't just abstract mathematics, it is an incredibly useful tool. Here I show you how to use it to derive the volumes of 3D shapes. Check out my posters here https://store.dftba.com/collec....tions/domain-of-scie
This was the first example that really opened my eyes to the real value of calculus. I learned it in university in my physics department mathematics class, and it was just the beginning of a long journey of me wielding calculus at all sorts of practical problems in physics, and it gave me the power to see where the equations of physics came from, rather than just having to learn an memorize them. Awesome!

Everything you need to know about viruses in a quick visual explanation. You can get the infographic image here https://flic.kr/p/2j2LDWs
At the beginning of this pandemic like everyone I was hearing lots about viruses, but realised I didn’t know that much about what they are. So I did a load of research and have summarised what I learned in these nine images. This video explains the key aspects of viruses: how big they are, how they infect and enter and exit cells, how viruses are classified, how they replicate, and subjects involving viral infections like how they spread from person to person, how our immune system detects and destroys them and how vaccines and anit-viral drugs work.
Human error:
In slide 9 toxin vaccines are for bacterial infections like tetanus, not viruses.
Big shoutout and thanks to these people for fact checking my work:

Physics comes up in movies a lot, and as quite a difficult subject it is fun to see how physics is interpreted through the lens of cinema. Sometimes they get it very right and sometimes they get it very wrong!
A friend of mine who is really into movies picked out a bunch of clips for me to interrogate. Some movies I had seen before, and others I hadn't. See how Hollywood does with some hardcore physics!

This is a summary of all the main companies building quantum computers today, and what their most powerful machines are. You can get the digital image here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/....95869671@N08/5184976 But we can’t simply look at qubits counts because so many other factors go into the quality of a quantum computer, so here I look at the quantum volume metric which is a much better way of comparing machines. And we look at what steps these companies need to take to achieve large scale useful general purpose quantum computers, and the timelines the companies have set out to achieve these.

Can you see neutrinos with your eyes? Strangely enough, the answer seems to be yes. Check out the sponsor of this video Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/DOS/
Neutrinos are the least well understood fundamental particle, and the fact that they don’t interact very much doesn’t help us study them. 300 trillion go through your body every second which is why some people call them ‘ghost particles’. But very occasionally they do hit us, and I wondered what would happen if one of them happened to hit us in our eye. Could we see it? So I figured it out with the same physics behind neutrino detectors, and the answer seems to be yes! Although you need a lot of eyes.

A short video explaining what quantum computers are, how they work, and what you'd need to build one.
You need yeast to make beer. Scientists discovered that wasps have yeast in their bellies, so why no make beer out of it! Brassneck brewery did just that so I went along to try some of their beer and find out why.
I was not sponsored by Brassneck or anyone to do this video, I made it because I find it very interesting!

In this video I give you 5 things you can do to reduce plastic waste. The #teamseas movement is great, but there is so much more we can do to reduce the estimated 10 million tonnes of plastic and trash dumped into our rivers and oceans every day.
