In this episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast, we delve into the March 2020 edition of Physics World magazine, taking a look at a feature examining how scientists hope to harness power from the motion of ocean waves, plus the magazine’s new interview-based graduate careers advice section. We also talk about some of the many applications of terahertz waves, including ghost imaging, speeding communications networks and searching for the origins of life on Earth. Finally, we discuss how – in the light of increasing travel bans and restrictions on large gatherings – some conference organizers are looking to transition their scientific meetings from physical to virtual events.
