Professor Bethe, was an interesting man-I saw him at UCR and asked him a question about his attempted application of the standard model to the problem of solar phenomena.

It is a great lecture by a great person to whom we owe much for our present understanding of theoretical physics.

Old world brilliance on display…humbling when we think of our intellectual world today…

You all have done greatest service to humanity in bringing up & presenting to the World facts & truth of natural mathematical sciences directly from the context of the true heroes of 20th Century & 21st Century Science, Engineering & Technology personalities: both the pillars, the pioneers, the mathematical scientists themselves, including the students very much alive historically in the true spirits of human knowledge & understanding - with sense of life, wits & humors. Thank you AIP, Thank you MIT, Thank you ALL. - Gpw Bernard Bautista

A wounderfull lecture

He deserves a biopic from Christopher Nolan as a tribute.

Good work

Surely the sound could be better synchronised with the video? It is minutes off.
-
Probably can't do anything about it now, but the sound is way ahead of the video.
-
13:00 is hilarious. Scan back a few minutes to the guy who brings him out and it will make sense. It's a good one!

Like a collider

Make sure both left and right channels have equal volume audio when you post. Easy fix in editing software.
-
There is a delay in audio and video, which needs to be corrected
-
Is one of many
