In a rebroadcast from Jan. 23, 2011, Keith & Russ continue their conversation with Douglas Osheroff, professor emeritus of Physics at Stanford University, and 1996 winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics. Osheroff shared the Nobel Prize with David M. Lee and Robert C. Richardson for their research in superfluidity in Helium 3. The 1996 Nobel Prize was awarded for research Osheroff conducted as an undergraduate student in 1971. Osheroff talks about the years following this groundbreaking research, and how the Nobel Prize changed his life.
