Overview

I'll start with something that has always struck me as odd. On the rare occasions when I'm asked to play bongos at a large gathering, the moderator doesn't need to mention that I'm a theoretical physicist. I think it's because there's more respect for art than for science. Renaissance artists believed that man's primary preoccupation was man. There are other interesting things in the world too, although they say it should be. Even artists notice the beauty of sunsets, sea waves and stars in the sky! Observing these is enough to give us an aesthetic pleasure. There is a rhythm and order among natural phenomena that is invisible to the naked eye but can be noticed when viewed with an analytical eye. What we call the laws of physics is this rhythm and order itself. In this lecture series I would like to go into the general properties of the physical laws. This is another level of generality; a generality in which we can say that the laws are superior to them. The subject I will deal with will be nature, which we see as the result of a detailed analysis; However, I will speak only of the broadest general properties of this kind. A subject containing such generalizations tends to turn to philosophy; Conversations can be experienced as deep philosophizing . I will take a more specific approach, preferring to be truly understood rather than vaguely. In this first conference I will drop generalizations and talk about a specific law of physics. Therefore, I will give an example of what I will discuss later in general. I will use this example as needed to make something that might come across as very abstract more concrete. As a concrete example of physical laws, I have chosen the law of gravitation, the phenomenon of gravitation. I don't know why I made this choice. This was one of the first fundamental laws discovered and has an interesting history. Now you can tell me, That's an old story; I would like to learn more about modern science. Perhaps we can speak of newer ; but one cannot speak of 'more modern'. Modern science follows the same tradition as the discovery of the law of gravitation. Therefore, we only talk about recent discoveries. I don't think the law of gravity is a bad choice; because I am treading a very modern path in describing their history, their methods and the nature and quality of their discovery. you can't speak more modern'.
