Dark Energy

Six renowned physicists reflect on the mystery of so-called "dark energy"--the surprising acceleration in the expansion of the universe that was discovered by two groups in 1998 and later awarded with a Nobel Prize. Featured are Nobel Laureate Roger Penrose (University of Oxford), Nobel Laureate Tony Leggett (University of Illinois), Justin Khoury (University of Pennsylvania), Freeman Dyson (IAS), Claudia de Rham (Imperial College), Rocky Kolb (University of Chicago).

Ideas Roadshow is an award-winning initiative offering an expanding series of thought-provoking compilations developed from in-depth conversations between Howard Burton and more than 100 world-leading researchers across the arts and sciences, including 3 Nobel Laureates. Each compilation provides unique perspectives from several top experts on a single theme or topic.

The founder and creator of Ideas Roadshow, Howard Burton, holds a PhD in theoretical physics and an MA in philosophy and was the Founding Director of Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physic in Canada.
