Get Your Math Geek On with This A CapellaHamiltonParody

It ’s no secret that I ’m a vast fan of the uber - nerdy A Capella Science serial on YouTube . And now it ’s back with another super - clever geeky video , parodying the hip - record hop gap number of the knock Broadway musicalHamilton .

Except in this case , the Hamilton in interrogative sentence is the Irish physicist and mathematicianWilliam Rowan Hamilton , who chance upon 4 , among other originative contribution . He ’s also behind theHamiltonian operator , used in quantum auto-mechanic to key the full energy of a quantum scheme . It produce out of Hamilton ’s elegant equations of motion for a dynamical system in the 1830s — the ones physicists manipulation to describe the evolution of a Graeco-Roman world-wide arrangement , for example , or an negatron in an electromagnetic field of honor .

What ’s in effect than A Capella Science creator and cathartic aficionadoTim Blaisbringing this parody to lifespan ? He ’s already done a virtuoso send - up of “ Defying Gravity ” from Wicked , so another Broadway smash hit is a natural follow - up . This time around he ’s helped out by an all - adept lineup of YouTube science star , including Veritasium , Baba Brinkman , Helen Arney , Tom Zalatnai , and Hank Green . Check it out !
