Neutrons and Nanoscience - Backstage Science

[revomusicman]

those fortress interlocks are horrible things to use

[epauker]

That safety lock doesn't seem to be very useful to me. He put one key in the door, opened the door, and went in leaving the key in the lock. What is stopping someone from coming by, shutting the door, removing the key, and then turning on the system?

[sedwarg]

@epauker I think the point is so that you can't leave it on by accident and then go into the room. I'm pretty sure the key being removed would let someone know that another person's in the room

[PraiseSermon]

Sweet! I added you to TvNano. com Nice video!

[leonist83]

now imagine all this technology on a nano scale in your "cell phone"

[culwin]

I know where his keys are now

[boldger13]

I love how detailed the descriptions are of the machines parts. Can you, Brady, post the uncut footage?

[colourmegone]

"to look at small stuff you push the detector forward, to look at big stuff you push the detector farther away" Hmm, reminds me of something, oh yes, Father Ted trying to explain to Dougal the difference between "small" and "far away"...

[StoogesTattoo]

Neat!O!

[maekern]

Wow.

[Eldejot]

Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow, please.

[josephd183]

Does the Cadmium stop have to be cooled so it doesn't heat up, or does the absorption of neutrons not have an effect like that?

[jhonbus]

Pause right at the beginning... "I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti"

[LiiMuRi]

That's one huge detector! Very cool video.

[aqcd]

Im really surprised that that they can pump down that vacuum chamber in 20 minutes.

I'm suddenly aware of how fast my nails are growing ... :(

[DaithiDublin]

I thought the sign at 4:29 to commemorate the detection of neutrinos might have been a lot more accurate than 13:08 BST. I love the cerebral wit of scientists and thought we might have seen a nanosecond precise timestamp!

I remember visiting a friend at his lab in Lausanne years ago and there was a prominent sign that read:

No Eating,

No Drinking,

No Unnecessary Innovation

I second insomniac1893's comment, great videos!

[mcjhn]

really well explained, thanks!

[insomniac1893]

Oh and great video too =P Really cool and interesting!

[insomniac1893]

I really love this channel and all the others that Brady has (periodicvideos, sixtysymbols etc.)! Keep up the amazing work and never ever stop making videos!! They are great, fun, exciting and educational. Thank you so much Brady!! =)

very interesting. i don't know much about anything in this video, but at least i know my nails grow 1nm each second!
