The "much of GR and EM" mentioned here are just the Bianchi identities, which would be true regardless of the equations of motion. The real content of Maxwell's equations is not dF=0 (which is automatic from F=dA), but rather d*F=*J. Similarly for GR.

At #MarylandDay an 8th grader came up to the ask an astronomer booth with a notebook full of questions. Questions ranging from the origins of cosmic rays to if astronomers use the theory of general relativity and quantum mechanics. She made my heart so happy 😭

With another semester ending, here's your annual reminder that teaching evaluations systemically disadvantage women. Even when controlling for grades and other factors, students (esp. males) consistently give female professors lower scores. This can have serious ramifications.🧵

@duetosymmetry That said, I'm quite happy to maintain that saying that the em field can be thought of as a connection is "physical content".
@duetosymmetry Good idea!!!
Me and my high school physics teacher at my PhD graduation
High school teachers can have much bigger impact on young people's lives than university professors. We forget that sometimes. I just received a photo of my geology teacher in high school. I never went to study geology, but this man has been a great inspiration to me.
wish me luck, I'm giving my first colloquium ever tomorrow!
Very interesting points and discussion by everyone involved in this nested thread
The "much of GR and EM" mentioned here are just the Bianchi identities, which would be true regardless of the equations of motion. The real content of Maxwell's equations is not dF=0 (which is automatic from F=dA), but rather d*F=*J. Similarly for GR.

Les binaires spiralantes à rapport de masse extrême, j'adore !
The most tantalizing kind of event that LISA could detect—not mentioned in this article!—is an extreme mass-ratio inspiral, or EMRI, where a stellar mass object spirals into a supermassive black hole, and LISA could measure ~100,000 orbits! Would be very sensitive to new physics.
@duetosymmetry @MarcusErve Couldn’t you define a dual field for which that is also a Bianchi identity? I agree with you that this is mostly woo, but also recall John Wheeler spending the first lecture of grad EM on ‘boundary of a boundary is zero’ being a deep insight somehow. Have wondered ever since.
@Singularitarian @BenWibking @duetosymmetry This book and “Gauge Fields Knots and Gravity” are great (the second isn’t scary like it sounds!) also Nic Fords blog article on EM as a gauge theory is excellent - probably my first recommendation to get started! nicf.net/articles/class…
