Hey everyone!

I am back with a new guest speaker, Steven Silber. In this video Steven motivates the topic of thermodynamic phase transitions in preparation for his follow-up videos on modelling them.

But in mathematics, there seemly be 2-order or higher order phase transitions. What are these, then? I am kind of confused.
