Cold Water Surfing in New Hampshire: Sharing the Stoke
In part two of this month's two-part series on surfing in New Hampshire, we explore how the sport of surfing can create community, a sense of responsibility to protect the natural world, and monetary value for coastal towns. What is the value of clean water? And just because you surf, does that mean you’re more likely to support healthy coastal ecosystems? Becs O’Brien and Christina Dubin are two surfer friends who have formed a community of female surfers along the seacoast and are actively involved with marine conservation organizations, including Surfrider New Hampshire and Beyon...

The Hyperthesis
Stirred, Not Shaken - Ultracold Atoms in a Donut with Denise Kamp
This episode of the Hyperthesis features Denise Kamp, a PhD student in theoretical physics at McMaster University who studies dynamical instabilities in Bose-Enstein Condensates (BECs). These instabilities in form when a BEC is trapped in a double-well potential barrier and when a BEC is rotated in a donut shaped toroidal trap. We start the episode by discussing a proposal to use BECs as gravitational wave detectors, and finish off with a short history of BEC experiments.
