Radio Physics
Radio Physics is for everyone! You don't have to be a scientist or even an aficionado to be fascinated by the questions and answers that you'll hear on KDNK. Radio Physics is a collaboration with top high school physics students from Aspen to Rifle, the Aspen Center for Physics, and KDNK Community Radio in Carbondale. Students interview one of the more than 1,000 physicists who visit the Aspen Center for Physics every year.

Radio Physics | Krishna Rajagopal 31.03.2026 29:39
This time on Radio Physics, intern Henry Billinghurst talks with theoretical physicist Krishna Rajagopal, exploring one of the most extreme states of matter in the universe: “hot quark soup,” or quark–gluon plasma and how scientists recreate this early-universe matter using powerful particle colliders to briefly produce tiny droplets of this ultra-hot, liquid-like plasma. They discuss the physics...
Radio Physics | Ryan Foley 18.02.2026 27:30
In this episode of Radio Physics, hosts Jack Kravitz and Sasha Fielder sit down with physicist Ryan Foley.
