Exclusive interview: "life in the big bang" behind-the-scenes scientists coming out

This exclusive interview with "life" behind the big bang, reveals the hit drama scientists science secret Saar I hereby guarantee also learned from TV stuff

Beijing News "new known weekly Sal hereby guarantees (left) and" life in the big bang "producer BillPrady together.

He not only work and Leonard, looks very similar to being alike. In the formula on the Whiteboard, mostly from the Saarland is guaranteed.

David ·

Saar hereby guarantees (DavidSaltzberg) is the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Professor of physics and astronomy, he gives students, still ran to the Antarctic to do about inspection, with a United States physicist. But he's another layer of identity, it is currently the big red big purple drama "life in the big bang of scientific advisers. Sheldon, drifting out of those Lei down Penny and audience of the physical nature of the language, are guaranteed by the Saarland is written, Sheldon apartment Red Red-Green-Green filled with a formula of Whiteboard, filled with test tubes and devices laboratory scene, also from his hand. Recently, this reporter's network to the one foot into the entertainment industry has led to scientists, he interviewed answered many Chinese audience concerns.

1 on the plot

I am very close to the Leonard

Beijing News: many viewers do not know what Sheldon and Leonard is doing.

Can explain their work?

Thrall's insurance: Sheldon is a theoretical physicist.

He every day and formulas, rather than dealing with the laboratory equipment. He engaged in the research area called "string theory". Modern physics, the biggest problem may be that the law of gravity and quantum mechanics. "String theory" has tried to put the point in the theory of particles into a very small circle of vibration of the strings and to solve the problem.

Leonard is a name applied physicist.

He made many experiments, but most of all and fundamental physics-related. Many and fundamental physics related experiments require large Accelerator, but he problem don't need large accelerator. He is also looking for the Milky Way's dark matter, looking for strange quantum phenomena. Sheldon, compared to the way I work closer with Leonard.

Raj is a member of the astronomical physicist.

His study of small celestial bodies in the solar system. I think he's done some work possible and "kill" as the Planet Pluto.

Beijing News: you play favourite joke?

Thrall's insurance: I like to let the physical becomes the "deed".

For example, on one occasion, Leonard in glass rotate olive, to explain what is Penny centripetal force. I like another joke, Sheldon Leonard and put a box to push up the stairs, two people argue about what can push an inclined angle.

Beijing News: United States of postdoctoral salary low? why two researchers to sharing the apartment, what they can afford alone?

Thrall's insurance: in the United States, postdoctoral remuneration is too low.

However, hope that they are in a very short period of time to do post-doctoral. Also note that Penny apartment than Sheldon and Leonard little.

2 on the nerd

I have laughed Caltech

Beijing News: real scientific community there is described in the play "nerd" (bookworm)?

Sal is guaranteed: the word "nerd" is a derogatory meaning of points, but to describe those on Science, animation passionate people, this is perhaps the most suitable one word.

Play the protagonist and the reality that many people are like this. There are a lot of people say to me, "when I graduate and this guy learning together!"

Beijing News: does anybody complaining about this play in the role of stereotypes allow scientists tarnished?

Thrall's insurance: most start indeed some people complained about.

When I asked if they saw whatsets, they will say that in fact a set is never seen! now that the play is very famous, but I cannot hear complaining. Play the role of a human nature, they have other people also have the problem. I don't think this is what is displayed. The comedy has also portray the protagonist love science. It also tells young people, science has a good life. In short, this is not a documentary on all scientists, but on the story of five friends, only one of four people happen to be scientists and engineers.

Beijing News: play in Caltech's role to laugh at your UCLA.

Will you be embarrassed or also laughed Caltech?

Thrall's insurance: I don't remember the jokes on UCLA.

I once laughed Caltech, the play of a 14-year-old Korean genius DenisKim visiting evaluation of Caltech. Denis said they have no free-electron Laser, so not a good school. As far as I know, Caltech have no free-electron Laser, but UCLA.

3 with regard to cooperation

I also have a "Director's Chair"

Beijing News: TV series "science adviser" is a kind of work?

Sal is guaranteed: the TV recording each set, written by one month before send me ahead of time.

They sometimes left in play entitled "the need to fill in the blank space of the science" Let me fill in the blanks. For example, this quarter, BeRnadette was invited to visit the Leonard's lab, I populate the Leonard is doing experiments. Sometimes, screenwriter who will fill the science content yourself. I just need to look at, check for scientific content modification. My job is to make physicists could not find any flaw.

Beijing News: many scenes in the write a formula of Whiteboard, they are written by you?

Thrall's insurance: layout of a scene is also one of my work, including the provision of ' Whiteboard formula.

If you need to set up laboratory scene, I will give you advice. For example, Leonard's laboratory has a vacuum tube, I will tell them thatin order to maintain a clean, researchers will use aluminum foil to overwrite it.

Beijing News: you can also participate in the play joke of creation?

Thrall's insurance: Unfortunately, I say no joke, I only do their job — science.

Humor is a science, and history. I soon realized that, let me joke is too difficult.

Beijing News: the existence of such a situation, the script to finish later, you find that one of the key problems with the factual error?

Thrall's insurance: screenplay were very early on to send me scripts, especially those with scientific content.

Even if such a thing happened, clever writer can solve the problem. For example, the latest episode on the problem. There is a field in the screenplay for "quantum brain science" discussion, we then felt that the topic of the scientific basis is insufficient, Sheldon is impossible to spend time on this. Thus, screenwriter who came up with a good idea, they have had to study this subject Sheldon "refute" this theory. Solve the problem.

Beijing News: studios have a write your name in the Director's Chair, this is really where you do?

Sal is hereby guaranteed:! this surprised me!

I love my Director's Chair! recording site I go to, to make some final changes.

Beijing News: these four roles in real life physics is also very good, or take it out of the TV show that they have become experts in physics?

Thrall's insurance: they are always in public that he didn't know that science, this may be because they do not want to help others and homework.

To the TV play every week, they want to do a lot of plays of lessons. I know they did a lot of research lately, plays Shelton actor that plays the "in" electric (electric), and "electricity" (electrical) confusion between the two words. He was right!

4 on the science I have committed errors

Beijing News: your students and colleagues to help you wit

h ideas for the TV-out?

Thrall's insurance: Yes.

We would be together for lunch to discuss new topics in science. First quarter, one of my graduate students have to transcribe scene at a time. He told me a new physical form called "Super solid state". A week later, the word became the play Leonard and Sheldon display of the contents of the report.

Beijing News: actor will not mistake related knowledge, or wrong terminology?

Sal is guaranteed: No.

They are always correct. I myself have made mistakes. I do not know cannot in aluminum oxygen torch b above, this may cause a fire, so I also learned something.

Beijing News: the play involves knowledge is not only the physical aspects, anthropology, chemistry, computer science, and so on, this is your place? scientists are so wise?

Thrall's insurance: I'm glad you noticed this.

Typically, the television always criticized for not educational. But I want to see the TV shows college students and other audiences from the inside of all dialogue — not only is the dialogue on science high school a lot. Knowledge of other than natural science are screenplay were filled in. Their knowledge reserve surprising, I read the screenplay has to look at many things.

Scientists have also learned that this is like in total some people very worldly wise, I think comedy screenplay were particularly so.

Beijing News: general audience, the show is not mentioned in the term is much? many people from the play for the first time I heard the "Doppler effect" or "Schrodinger's cat".

Thrall's insurance: I want people to be able to watch TV after the "Google", or look through the wiki.

Of course, it is not possible to everybody to do. But in the United States, we have 14 million viewers, which many people are watching TV after your check information.

When I see people is how do I find my blog, I found them really in search of some words, such as "Sh

eldonMonopole" (the play Sheldon a game creation). In the first end of the Christmas special sets, Penny refers to "LeonardNimoy" ("Star Trek" Spock's play '), the term evening on Google top entry list, was searched up "in existing articles.

Beijing News: How do you decide on which scientific knowledge to the play? did you put the audience in the physical level as well as high as Penny? when you decided to put in some scientific terminology, you will select some of the more pleasant and more fashion or sounds more nerdy Word?

Thrall's insurance: this screenplay will guide me.

Sometimes they want some very high level of content, only very few people can understand. Other times,They want some "first grade" of content, so that most people can understand. When they want huatixing physics knowledge, I will try to make these new and interesting content, so the audience can learn from.

Beijing News: piantouqu says, "the expansion of the universe, but one day, the planet will reverse direction, inward collapse ...

Will trigger a larger explosion. " The universe will collapse, and trigger a new" big bang "?

Sal is guaranteed: the latest data show that not only in the expansion of the universe, and that expansive rate increases.

So now it seems that the universe is not enough to prevent swelling or reversed. However, cosmologists have had in the past changed their forecast, so I can't say that the universe of stop completely impossible.

5 on the drama the Mythbusters most science

Beijing News: science has become a trend in the creation of drama?

TV science adviser has been as many scientists dream job?

Sal hereby guarantees: there were many and science-related television shows, and science-related TV series for a long time.

More than 40 years ago with the Star ship ", but also no TV, Wales had aosen · to radio write science fiction. There are indeed some people tell me, you want to be a scientific consultant. They can, and United States National Academy of Sciences of a public service, "Science and entertainment Exchange" Office contact. This service is designed to give scientists and film and TV producer bypass.

Beijing News: you can see and do in science-related TV shows, such as "don't lie to me" or "black House"?

Thrall's insurance: I watched TV.

In fact I should read more, especially in understanding TV has so much creativity. The Mythbusters (Mythbusters) is not a TV show, but it's not only interesting, is also a popular science programmes. It tells the audience, "gossip" is how to produce, disseminate, and experiments and can ultimately determine their authenticity. This may be the most scientific of television entertainment.

The Mythbusters central figure Jamie (third from left) and Adam (second from right) is a famous dummy Buster.

Beijing News: film "2012" worldwide caused great shock.

"Life in the big bang" discussed this problem? movie situation really happen?

Sal is guaranteed: If you carefully look at the life of the big bang on the second quarter, it may be noted that Professor Gablehauser Sheldon boss has been studying the effect of the Mayan calendar 2012.

He Office of the Whiteboard fills the "demonstration".

I have not read the 2012 ", but I know its meaning.

Solar flares, and Earth neutrino kernel interaction, heating the latter. Raise your hand alignment Sun, every second is about the neutrino is about 1 trillion through your hands. These neutrinos have penetrating. So, if they were marching towards the center of the Earth, is very easily reached, and the Earth's core impact of neutrino even carries some energy, but relatively few of these energies. Almost all of the neutrino in penetrating, do not leave any energy. Therefore, the physical processes in the movie is real, but there is no known evidence that the Sun will generate enough heat theEarth kernel of neutrino. Of course, also possible film producers know something we don't know everything. Interviews/ reporter Kim Yu
