Were the ancient Greeks onto something when Pythagoras mused about the music of the spheres — a flawed, if romantic concept suggesting the mathematical relationships between celestial bodies could likewise emanate harmonious sounds not unlike violin strings? A team of nuclear physicists at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility explores the possibilities, Salon reports: flip.it/YEjtjA

You need to remember 3 numbers and you can piece together the entire Unit Circle.

I saw the 3-line visualization somewhere a while ago and wanted to recreate it. Here it is!

nerds!
A new proof of theorem has just dropped. Explanation YouTube video below. It's awesome.

Even better, it was created by two high school students, both women.

A researcher at Indiana University, who just received a degree in music composition and chemistry, has turned the light spectra of chemical elements into sound, creating a "musical periodic table."

I feel like Pythagoras and Kepler would be pleased...🪐 🎶

@Miriamm Has anyone from the mathsy Fediverse been able to see the proof yet? Does it hold up?

Es ist unglaublich ... Jetzt sitze ich hier mit meiner Frau und erläutere ihr seit einer halben Stunde den Satz des Pythagoras

- im rechtwinkligen Dreieck ist die Summe der Quadrate über den Katheten gleich dem Quadrat über der Hypotenuse ☝ -,

um am Ende am Wurzelziehen zu scheitern. 🤔😭

Für diesen Tag bin ich also in die Schule gegangen. 😩

Het zal voorlopig bij hulp bij rekenoefeningen en het geven van definities blijven, want van bewijzen heeft hij nog geen kaas gegeten. Hoewel het internet bol staat van bewijzen van de stelling van , slaagt er maar niet in er eentje correct te geven."
