In the months before the pandemic, Professor Paul Zeitz led several after-hours "deep dives," focusing intently on one or two MoMath exhibits to really understand the underlying mathematics.  This three-part series now brings the same engaging material to those who cannot easily visit the Museum.  Whether you've seen the exhibits in person or not, the magic of computer simulations will expose the beautiful mathematics that powers some of MoMath's most popular exhibits.

These two exhibits are so popular among visitors that it can be difficult to get near them in the Museum.  But in the quiet of your home, you can discover the classical curves that govern the very different phenomena behind these two exhibits.
