Sep 23, 2022 · Cox had already secured a first in physics from his alma mater back in 1995 and in 1998, not long after leaving the music biz, he got his PhD in High Energy Particle Physics for his work at the Hadron Elektron Ring Anlage (HERA) in Hamburg.

Cox has the patience of a saint. But occasionally he cracks—he called new age guru Deepak Chopra a “whining teenager” in a row over quantum physics and responded irritably to US politician Ben Carson’s suggestion that the Big Bang is …
