Quantum Mechanics: Properties Of Elementary Particles

[milosQaX]

Omg the animation quality ahahahahahah.... great video though.

[u7ht67]

CERTAINLY KEVIN!

[michaelaimen]

GREAT MOVIE

[grisgrisy]

very interesting thanks

[MegaRoFLL]

Prety circles and colors XD

[willbirful]

love the video man

[PeaceWithTheseEyes]

In "With These Eyes" a young woman is faced with the wrath of industry when she is about to discover the secret behind Quantum Power, a real, sustainable green energy source.

On her global quest for the truth, the young woman is faced with society's plagues like the flu vaccine, television and chem trails.

[osclarkos]

really informative and interesting

[bribribri56]

i enjoyed this vid

[PaperSoapy]

@TheFifthApes Yeah, it is interesting to look at how less informed people looked at science so long ago. The problem is that with QM feynman still isnt wrong...

[heyzeusful]

lol on the twins bit. "We can treat them separately." "We CAN?!?!?!"

[lilsadri27]

Im doing physics home work and its hard for me to figure out can someone tell me if this is right?

All matter is made of twelve fundamental particles, which is made of ___Protons___, ___Neutrons____ and ____Quarts_.??

[jmitterii2]

@lilsadri27 Leptons: ie. electrons, Hadrons: ie. quarks that make up protons and neutrons, and bosons: ie photons.

[lilsadri27]

@jmitterii2 Thank you very much sir, this homework is a bit confusing and not the best in physics

[chan625]

I understood untill Spinning tops came....Then I was stoned

[boomerangerman]

@TheFifthApes People just say that when theyre too lazy to make any effort in learning it.

[p7byrd]

Chuck Norris is able to keep track of two individual electrons in a box.

[Xero555000]

this is a good video... i wasnt expecting them to go into wavefunction and schrodinger's equation... i'm a chemist but i have to deal with this stuff all the time

[jcfbell3001]

@Xero555000

are you a quantum chemist ? hartree-fock/density functional etc?

[Xero555000]

@jcfbell3001 solid state chemist... and i work with catalysis but i have to use that stuff all the time... i understand DFT sort of... mostly from the computer standpoint.. i'm better at the solid materials part

[jcfbell3001]

@Xero555000

cool, thanks for the reply...

[Hornet0biker]

Why is this introduced by two guys with Parkinsons?

[evilerjolly]

@TheFifthApes In that case, I definitely think I understand quantum mechanics.

[Aki1011001]

Why were those people twiching so much?

[kurtilein3]

Pauli Exclusion Principle !

make sure to to rate this video up, im studying Physics and this is the real deal :)

[MegaBEANER1000]

Incredibly helpful video, although I had doubts of its legitimacy due to the poor and creepy animations, overall the information represented is accurate.

[strikerextreme]

The ppl are from fukin alien planet.thays why they knoe all this stuff;-)

[fix520]

Why WHY do they dummies have to be so UGLY?CREEPY! >.<

[ellimist6]

What causes the electrons to phase in and out of existence? How do they phase into existence?

[argmex17]

@ellimist6

I was wondering the same thing. It is a scholastic metaphysical principle that "whatever is moved into existence is moved by another" since only things that EXIST can be said to CAUSE and whatever CAUSES necessarily EXISTS in order to CAUSE then the "electron which no longer exists" cannot bring itself into existence because nothingness cannot "bring into existence". So either some already existing thing causes the electron to reappear or the electron never ceased existing at all.

[Infocollective22]

@ellimist6 They don't as such phase out and into existence, rather it is a law called Quantum Uncertainty, meaning all particles aren't in one exact place, but that they have a better chance of existing in one place than somewhere else. It's called a probability cloud.

At these tiny scales, nothing is absolutely certain and defined. A bit "fuzzy", almost.

[L00NGB00W]

What? only two electrons per valence shell?

Aren't the outer shells capable of holding more electrons?

[xIndca]

Wow that's a great video! If you post it (youtube embed pls) on xInd dot ca I will be happy to promote it and share it with all our members! We have virtual talent scouts constantly sourcing the best videos for the members of our network. Cheers!

[bigrussdry]

subscribe to my channel, message me, than i will sub back. thanks!!!

[vashthefunker]

I think the equation twins = wins needs to be expressed on this video. 

[funkypokemaniac006]

first learn how to pronounce sateyendra nath bose!!!!

[allentam911]

it annoys me how this faggot can't even pronounce schrödinger right

[nazra7]

If electrons phase in and out of existence, doesn't that mean they just loose their energy and gain it back? If not then somehow electrons can go to someplace that doesn't exist, which would mean where ever they went to did exist...

[CrashThomasRacing]

@nazra7

when the waves be a line,

the electron doesn't seems, And after it seems again in the other place.Because the waves are continuing

[nazra7]

@CrashThomasRacing I still don't understand how they can come to the conclusion "We can't detect it and now there it is! It must be phasing in and out of existence!"

My theory is much more plausible.

[virginialikesyou]

(0:56 wow) great videos thanks!!!!!

[virginialikesyou]

0:56 wow

[TorBarstad]

Thanks! This explained a lot!

[faustus999]

THIS WHOLE SERIES OF ANIMATIONS ARE EXTREMELY INFORMATIVE AND INTERESTING. THEY ARE SO HELPFUL TO THE UN EDUCATED LIKE MY GOOD SELF.

[Freakschwimmer]

I hate how he says " the universe would be a very different place"

I mean come on!! Thats so obvious....

It's like saying " if there was no woven fabric, clothing would be very different"

DUH

[Boxrag]

@Freakschwimmer Don't be such a pedant; this doesn't occur to everyone.

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

@Freakschwimmer not everyone knows science as much as you

[Lpoolboy]

The old 3d guy at the start looks like he's in constant agony, and must keep talking about physics lest his spasms control him.

[cKlutcHJ21]

So how come there can be more than two protons and neutrons in the nucleus?

[rickwyant]

Will look up the book, fascinating subject I think but has me always asking alot of questions.. thanks for the suggestion ..

[rickwyant]

how is spin manifested in an electron?? are up spin and down spin just arbitrary ?? i.e. are you just saying they "spin" in opposite ways?? what would make an electron "spin" or not "spin"?? is there a force operating here causing "spin"?? "spin" is movement of the electron?? does it "spin" back and forth?? or does it sometimes "spin"??? please clarify "spin" how it came about, what causes it , etc....

[bernzeppi]

This is not a very good explanation, it's not about spinning tops

Best explanation of spin?

"the Universe in a Nutshell" By Stephen Hawking

He imagines a ball with a repetitive pattern on it... spin is how many times you need to turn the ball before you see the same pattern again

on a beach ball it would be 1 or could even be a half turn to show the same pattern

The tricky bit is spin 1/2 where you have to turn the ball twice to see the same pattern... weird eh?

Er, maybe get the book

[Revstoningpot]

@rickwyant picture a candy cane the red stripe is flow it could go in two directions make it into a ring. the flow is then kept inside its self 'an object in motion' because the universe is imperfect energy from the big bang created spin in all things. if it were perfect everything would have continued straight forever. a single particle is made up of yet smaller particles in a ring like spin. if a particle looses spin the smaller particles would disperse. but the energy would still be there

[SOiser]

thanks for this one

[AlphaCrucis]

This is awesome! It explains many of the things I've been wondering about.

[zeiontic]

i thought gravitons haven't been proved to exist?

[zeiontic]

these are all lies

[christheferal]

To understand recursion, you must first understand recursion.

[alexhigher]

Yeah right!! what???

[sillygames]

"If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don't understand quantum mechanics."

- Richard Feynman

[ROLNIKxPL]

faved

[Stead3111]

OHHHHHH!.. wait... what..

[sillygames]

A thing might exist, and it might not. The world is made of things that actually exist. But some of them don't always exist. Well maybe they go somewhere else for a while. But they definitely exist sometimes. If you have a cat in a box in space, you don't know if it's alive or dead until you check. Until then, it's both alive and dead. That's pretty much how everything works. I'm not kidding!

[Revstoningpot]

@sillygames the cat knows if it's dead if nothing exists unless it's observed than everything exists because everything is at least aware of it's self

[Philipisgr8]

That's it! I officially don't have a clue what's going on anymore.

[sillygames]

eh... I replied to the wrong person. See my comment to Stead above for a perfect explanation of how everything works.

[Paxmax]

aaah crap.. I need to back up the tape and start over...

[jmdnarri]

@TheFifthApes That makes me feel better for not realy getting this stuff.

[Jmony123]

We are multi dimensional light beings of the universe

[FiveTop]

be nice if the equation stopped waving

[SimberLayek]

@FiveTop pause button

[limeffdd]

@FiveTop what exactly is a pause button?

[Katalyzt]

★★★★★

[christo930]

This made me brain ache! 5 stars though

[Raptors09999]

so awesome!!!

[Films4You]

On or Off binary

[ObakeOnna]

This series is really blowing my mind. The last time I've felt this way is when I read that positrons are actually elecrons moving backwards in time.

[rhn94]

i dnt get it =S ..

[BaneOfFreeSpeech]

lol.

[Baldmother]

I still dont understand the popping out of existence part. This is going to sound like the creationist mantra "how does something come from nothing" But can someone breifly explain how does energy dissapear and then re appear from nothing. Anyone Have any info on this i can read?

[pokerslut530]

@Baldmother It is believed at this time that they move to a another dimension. Look up parallel universes and/or the string theory. It's complicated stuff and highly theoretical, but it is the best answer anyone has come up with thus far (that I'm aware of). It's hard to wrap your mind around it for sure.

[truvelocity]

They aren't popping in and out of "All" existence, just measurable existence that we can measure, so when they pop out, it is something we can't measure, so the theory is that they are moving to another dimension and coming back again.

As long as there is vibrational energy which causes it to appear in this existence, it will fluctuate like a particle appearing and disappearing, because all matter is vibrational energy. That vibration is described as a wave.

[sillygames]

1. Virtual particles are doing this constantly at every point in space. Normally, they cancel each other out. So empty space isn't really "nothing," it's a vast matter-antimatter explosion.

2. Advanced physics is moving toward a multidimensional description for the universe. Particles are actually moving in more than four dimensions, and we see only a "slice."

3. In essence, "real" particles are made of space-time. They can be thought of as events with a "chance" of being seen by us.

[goneutt]

I had this cuing up while another video was getting started and that "Mr Science" voice has so much potential for misapplication.

[Meathead36]

looks like the dudes are wacking off at the start

[JaMoond]

My...

Those people must have some kind of Parkinson's disease

[hash1212]

these videos are some of the BEST on introducing very complex ideas.

[Smudge4C]

@4:44 His name is Enrico Fermi, not Fermion.

[Pentazoid111]

Nobody really cares about an easy mispronunciation of a name

[Smudge4C]

I agree that a mispronunciation probably isn't worth pointing out.

But this isn't a mispronunciation, it's incorrect information. He didn't just 'accidentally' say "fermion" instead of "fermi".  He did so because his information was faulty.

And for a 'science video' that's supposed to be soaked in fact, I find it appalling that my original comment (pointing out the error) was thumbed-down.

[Khronofox]

Chill, bro.

[xIntoThePitx]

Under the photo it clearly states his name, so obviously his wording was a tongue-tied mistake. Thanks for pointing it out though!

[Smudge4C]

You're welcome.

What those who thumbed me down don't realize is that I was trying to be helpful, and either they don't care or they're willingly going to be unconstructive.

I didn't actually notice the caption under the photo - my mistake.

[deejayedwards]

0:49 Hellooooo!

[jahzeeljidlof]

I'm very curious inability to calculate in time and space position of subatomic particles when these dimensional characteristics are still unknown. That gives me the pattern to think that time travel is still impossible to calculate.

Very good video.

[Timmay123456789]

amazing explanations, horrible animations LOL

[Elenkhos]

i love your vids man....

[easyben21]

the begining guy at the start moves so retarded

[labrat882]

Yeah, it reminds me of this show:

watch?v=Ajw6AsYTW2o

lol

[MyCrownOfWorms]

oh god, the animation scares me...

[VeryEvilPettingZoo]

When I first learned the connection - indistiguishability of identical particles implies the Pauli exclusion principle for electrons, which is in turn the cause of ALL chemistry, which is the reason everything in our ordinary existence is not merely as it is, but has the even the capacity of having the types of properties we find - it just blew me away. It still does.

At our scale, all the detailed structure to reality is just a consequence of the indistinguishability of identical particles!

[menschling]

thanks good video

[Adipatus]

Thanks

[MicrosoftsourceCode]

Every time this channel uploads a new video I expect to learn something new. But it's turning out to be like:- ' if the sea was not salty then the world would not be the same. Well I don't think you need a fucking science degree to figure out that if subatomic particles behaved differently the universe would be different. nearly all the passes videos have had the same fucking dumb message. Nothing new. 0/5 sorry but your not grabbing my attention.

[wretcherwretch]

That messages takes up roughly 10 seconds of the entire video. O.o

[kenandkids]

@MicrosoftsourceCode so just because you can't figure out all of the "sciency" stuff that is all you hear? maybe grab a textbook? or a brain?

[MicrosoftsourceCode]

Learn to read before you reply to peoples comments

[Kapritchosa]

You need a different perspective on the issues. Science is a collection of well-verified facts. The video just shows some of the facts and our feeble (but impressive) attempts to model the facts with mathematics. No one knows the answer to the big question "WHY?"

[alien8ted]

The answer to the question "WHY?" is "why not?" Science isn't feeble, compared to it, it's everything else that is feeble.

[D119heavy]

what's up with the weird CGI humans talking at the beginning?

other than that, awesome vid

[ConscientiousMind]

It bugs me how the guy pronounces Schrödinger.

It's not Schrow-din-jer, it's Schrö-ding-er.

[DaDaWgLLS]

I've heard it both ways, so I don't think it matters. I prefer "Din-Jer" myself, because "Dinger" sounds like some cowboy hoe-down.

[Krumbz2003]

I just checked. It's pronounced Shro-ding-er. After Edwin Shrodinger.

[Sqirril]

CREEPING FUCKING BEGINNING

[MITHWORLD1]

Excellent,thanks again bestofscience.

[JennyFarlopez]

So forcefully dumbed down it actually commits some big errors in the explanations.

[amsterstorm]

@JennyFarlopez you say actually as if it is uncommon for something complicated that has been dumbed down to lose some of its accuracy.

[bimblinghill]

@Jenny: Could you please provide ddetails, so that we may be better informed?

[geeknotnerd]

@JennyFarlopez As others have said, details would be great - could you provide some of the mistakes so that we can read around and correct any misapprehensions?

[InfiniteGXT]

like what

[Shalek]

What errors, it seems we all want to know.

[tersse]

this reminds me of the continuously rising note in sound. dose that resonate with any one else?

[alexkaapa]

these videos are absolutely great!

[Ontologistics]

I thought 'gravitons' were considered an error, like ether.

[8DX]

Hmm.. Didn't someone however say that with dark matter, "ether" actually exists?

[NeedsEvidence]

Dark matter (as well as the Higgs field) is not ether. The latter is not Lorentz-invariant.

[8DX]

Alright, I didn't say they were the same (but who am I to know), but since ether was only really hypothetical and was disproved through tests measuring the speed of light, it is interesting that extra mass has been measured inbetween stars - by of course measuring the behaviour of light travelling through space..

I'll shut up now.

Oh I wanted to say: if ether was an attempt to say "space isn't empty", well now there's people saying "space ISN'T empty".

[DaDaWgLLS]

Gravitons are still theoretical, and due to their tiny mass (or lack thereof) they may be very hard or even impossible to detect, but I've never heard anyone say they were an error. Don't quote me on that though.

[SubTachyon]

@MasterFPunkt: Only the first shell is limited to 2 electrons. Second shell can contain 8 and third can contain up to 18 and so on.

[bobster451]

@SubTachyon Actually it is two electrons per sub-shell which is the case. The Second electron orbits contain one S and three P subshells, The third level contains one S, three P and five D sub orbits.

[SubTachyon]

Thanks.

[MasterFPunkt]

if only 2 electrons can exist in one shell, there must be like 55 shells for the highest atoms

[Akumeitakai]

Very insightful! I had no idea this is what all that wishy washy newage crap was trying to coopt all along! What a concise and clear explanation.

[jacobromu]

I hate when people take this stuff into new age spirituality crap.

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

it's like, the electron is us @_@

ROFL XD

[MITHWORLD1]

@jacobromu.But the worst thing is that that kind of videos have more viewers.

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

God, why must those animated people shake, like they're having a seizure :(

[bobster451]

The echo in the voice is a distraction.

The animated people do nothing to make the point of this video, in fact they should be shelved as well.

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

the echo isn't bad, unless you have no ability to concentrate on what's being said, and the animations are a waste, so those should be removed :)

[bobster451]

@TheReasonWhyGuy At least we agree on the animation.

BTW, I have no problem concentrating on the topic, I see the echo as unneeded and annoying.

Just sayin'

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

Unneeded I can agree with, but I think that some people get pulled in more by it... and those people are the ones who'd likely need a video like this to tell them about basic particle physics :P

[IanBillings00]

If you check out the Cassiopeia Project's site, they say that the video (this is a small part of a very long movie-type explanation video), is produced to be a sort of story-line animated film. The people in the video are characters in a story which includes a hero, a girl, and a love story, that supposedly assist in explaining the concepts in the movie.

Personally, I think it detracts from the educational experience. But, I guess it helps keep the layman interested and paying attention.

[Physk]

Layman? How cynical :P. I probably fall under that category, but I believe that I have the potential to fully understand this without the help of a potentially shallow storyline. I'd say education is more about repetition rather than implementing story elements.

Cheers.

[j9dz2sf]

One thing I don't understand (it is not in your video, but I know physicists say that), is why the graviton - which has not yet be detected - has a spin of 2. It is the only particle having that spin. Why?

[j9dz2sf]

And BTW, thanks for your videos! I appreciate them!
