  • "The particles faster than light (according to data) are neutrinos"

    The concept of faster than light particles is actually predicted in physics. They are referred to as 'tachyons'. I wonder if these neutrinos have anything to do with the prospect of tachyons.

  • @Diomedes01 i wouldn't bet your house on it that they actually went faster then light... more likely it s an experimental flaw or something.

  • @callawaydekluizen Most likely, that is the case. But ultimately, that is for the testing to confirm.

    It does remind me of all the hooplaa around the 'Cold Fusion' science that was all the rage in the late 80s. Which turned out to be nothing more than a glorified chemical reaction.

    But ultimately, because Einstein's theory actually postulated the concept of tachyons and they are defined in the standard model as well, it makes for a tantalizing prospect.

  • @Diomedes01 true but everyone feels that if one makes such a huge statement you need a huge amount of proof to back it up. And saying that something can go faster then light is a pretty big statement.

  • @callawaydekluizen Indeed. Which of course, is what makes it so tantilizing.

    But as you said, it has to be verified. Which is why I love science so much over dogmatic religions. It makes assertions and then validates.

  • @callawaydekluizen I agree, if you (general you) pay attention, the scientist from Gran Sasso asked for help in finding the error. Theoretically Neutrinos should not move faster than light, since they do have mass, small but its there.

  • Thousands of years, uncountable theories about numbers, forces, relations... and the question remains as it was in ancient civilizations... What the hell is to exist?

    aiusdhiashdashdiahs physics make me laugh... billions of dollars over all that time to get the question that greek philosophers came just in their minds...not the answer, but the same fucking question auhsdsuiahdisahuisad

  • This film is 4 years old and so my question is......Have they found this " Higgs particle " yet?

  • @FeignofCordor nope.

  • @FeignofCordor . have they found the higgs boson yet ? NO not yet it maybe that it has shown its self but was not yet noticed . also its been taking them time to get things to the right power and they had a breakdown at the start . however they are so close to finding higgs boson that have ask the public to down load a program to help them try and see/find it . there is alot of infomation to take in so they need help. but some other new discoveries have been made latley .

  • @FeignofCordor They have explored a range of energy between 145 and 450 GeV, but they haven't found traces of Higgs with a confidance of 95%. Now if Higgs exists it must be found in the range 114-145 GeV that is unexplored. However to be sure they want to have a confidance of 5 sigma (99.9999%) for the inexistance of the boson in the first range. I think that in the end of 2012 we will have a solid response from data. Hawking says they will not found it: however we are at the edge of revolution.

  • @TheTrancemaster90

    You sound quite knowledgeable on this subject can you tell me is the LHC big enough bearing in mind the one in the states is pretty massive . Also do you know of the recent findings about particles that where sent from one place to another and were registered travelling faster than the speed of light?

  • @FeignofCordor LHC is much powerful and bigger than the Tevatron in USA, infact it have a diameter of 27 km, and some of its detectors are colossal (like CMS or ATLAS).

    The particles faster than light (according to data) are neutrinos, and it's an experiment between CERN and Italy (CNGS Cern Neutrino to Gran Sasso). Here LHC is used only for production of particles. However this result is under examination of scientific community.

  • @TheTrancemaster90

    Thank you for the Reply this subject interests me.

  • The disembodied head scares me

  • Death wont come from sub atomic black holes but rather from denial. I really do love the work done by all these scientists. I believe it will change our lives.

  • Death wont come from sub atomic black holes but rather from denial.

  • It didn't need all of the dramatic music & graphics...the information is itself amazing and it's all enough to peak my interest.

  • @CO2Junkie For example, you are about to tell someone the news of what happened. "Guess what? You don't know yet? Let me tell you." If you are alert enough, present enough, you may be able to detect a momentary sense of satisfaction within yourself just before imparting the news, even if it is bad news.

  • @MrRichardKranium Agreed. I'd simply change "even" for "mostly"...MOSTLY if it is bad news!

  • @CO2Junkie There are many subtle but easily overlooked forms of ego that you may observe in other people and, more important, in yourself. Remember: The moment you become aware of the ego in yourself, that emerging awareness is who you are beyond ego, the deeper "I." The recognition of the false is already the arising of the real.

  • @COckJunkie "The problem with humans isn't that they don't listen to your god. The problem is that they won't regulate their population numbers peacefully.." Didn't Hitler say that?.

  • @MrRichardKranium - Did he? If he did, then I'd say I agree with him. If Hitler said 2 + 2 is 4, am I to disagree on principle?

    Mr Dick, you seem to be following me from one video to another. Yesterday you called me a Jew on one video response. Now, are you hinting that I'm a neo-Nazi or Nazi-sympathizer? Are you a stalker?

  • He says its only "almost" impossible that the created black holes could cause harm

  • I hope these subatomic black holes dont kill us because we wont be able to blame these madmen.

  • Homo Sappiens = 100.000 years

    Scentific model = 250 years.

    Are you expecting more??? Go Pray!!! hahaha;

  • This means that E=MC 2 can be reversed.

  • They could of just bought an Etch & Sketch from Walmart for $6.99 and created the same drawings their $6 Billion did, and saved the cash for Keggers.

  • People don't even want to accept that human life begins at conception, yet these scientists have the audacity of trying to figure out how the universe was created. Note: YOU'RE NOT GOD!!! and your not going to figure it out, so get your pocket calculators out of your shirts and try figuring out how many times you'll be rejected by someone from the opposite sex, if you actually had the cohones or hutzpah, to actually attempt to ask them out.... and that doesn't include hookers :)

  • @pcashman11 Well your God did give us brains and nowhere did he lay out the restrction that "Thou shalt not seek answers" Or did he tell Jesus that and he forgot to mention it? Next time try harder

  • @ashwinbhat123 why is it his God? It's everyone's god if you believe it or not - it's a theory, it's one of billions of infinite ideas, any idea becomes a possibility due to the nature of logic, sure some things don't work with our laws of physics but everything is possible to some extent - we have an infinite amount of numbers hence an infinite of possibilities. Science is more than evidence. It's a beautiful subject, but I also find religion to be a beautiful subject, no matter how extreme.

  • @pcashman11

    u are the most stupid insect ive ever incounterd in my life, all u think about is girls? how stupid is that?

    we like to use our high iq levels to know how everything was created. OMG i never believed a human can be this stupid

  • Here's another president I think his name was Clinton LOL LOL LOL Scientists are simply amazing

  • lol -Hi. ~ignore~

  • the budget for this project cost 6 billion dollar. i just think the money could have been put to better use. dnt get me wrong.. i'm all for finding the origin of space and time but that money's only gonna give us knowledge but i dnt c how its goin' to make human life any better.

  • @v1vas knowledge of all kinds makes our lives better. The more we know the more we are capable of doing here. Better this then on a military. ;)

  • @v1vas The World Wide Web was invented by CERN. Think of all the hundreds of billions of dollars it has generated in less than two decades. I think the scientists at CERN deserve a lot more than 6 billion dollars.

  • @v1vas Human life is not just abt getting food to eat, curing diseases whch is basically survival, dont get me wrong that is important. But there is more than that, if all we ever did was worry abt survival and not question and try and fnd out answers we would be no different than animals in the serengeti , only a a bit smarter. This habit of finding how things work is at the very core of our species.

  • Put a particle on Chuck Norris chin and one on his knuckle and you have a particle collider.

  • This may summon Galactus

    

  • lmfao, i had perfect attendance in 6th grade, but i got 50 bucks and a medal

  • Chuck Norris can do it, you don't need a Large Hadron Collider ...

  • @thechosen92 chuck norris is a little ginger bitch, gingers cant do anything.

  • According to theory, everything in existence (including space, time, matter, energy & their "parallel symmetries") all came from a "point of singularity" very shortly after the "Higgs Boson" was first produced, with everything coming from this "God particle". If all the whole existence (including superdense neutron stars; blackholes; quasers; stars; planets; time; space etc) came for this Boson, I dont think conditions produced by the LHC is high enough into producing this particle (in reverse).

  • The only problem I have with this is that most people cannot even understand themselves, why would we not work on us all becoming self aware, then raise intelligence of all these new beings, work on this together?

  • @jasonlammons This is why there are religions and spiritual retreats for people who are interested.

  • I laughed when he dropped his nobel prize. Mainly because his reaction was "woops," in a very light hearted way :-P

  • phillip glass+ physics = awsome

  • @azngreenteas Is that Glass' music? thanks

  • @nalcow yea!

  • Gets harder and more interesting!

  • Comment removed

  • I love the phrase "Matter is an energy condensate"

  • I LOVE "Horizons"

  • Random fact of the day:

    @ 6:03, it sounds like the patch Pads > Airy Pads > "Air Glass" from the VSTi synthesizer, Atmosphere. Carry on. :)

  • What about conscious that keeps us together..

    Dont just try to understand, but also try to feel it.

  • why do they act as though the big bang actually happened? it is still just a theory right?

  • Agreed

  • They act like that because there is a considerable amount of evidence it happened.

    And yes the theory is our best explanation of how the big bang happened (it's still happening btw), just like Einstein's theory of general relativity is our best explanation of how gravity works.

  • very good point!

  • @viceanterra4 Yeah, it's a theory. But it's a bit like seeing the aftermath of a forest fire and arguing about whether or not it was a fire or something else that caused the devastation. Just because it seems utterly obvious to practically every mind that sees enough of the scene, there will always be a few delusional imbeciles to point out that we can't be 100% sure it was an actual fire. The trees might have burned individually, for example, and it's only a coincidence that none aren't.

  • @ananiasacts We didn't start the fire.

  • @TheCritRocket, I just can't make myself to worship a cowardly bully. The god of Abraham can't have both created the universe and everything in it while simultaneously caring where poofters put their penises. It doesn't add up.

  • @ananiasacts The world's been burning since the worlds been turning. (I was quoting a song. I actually agree with you.)

    "We Didn't Start The Fire" by "someone who i forgot"

  • @wacoinferno i wouldn't use the word stupid

  • @boxa Even Tesla came to the understanding that this does not work as expected. Maybe you should read his works instead of internet forums or unserious science books/websites to get your info.

  • i did the research myself, it does work quite well, i am not on the scale as teslas wireless energy system, but i have proven his work! you have not done the research so you dont have the right to criticize tesla. teslas work is very important to giving humanity energy for everyone and thus bringing fourth all humans to a civilized level. you forget tesla made the ac power system for the world, he knew what he was doing!everyone i did a basic tesla wireless energy transfer, wireless power!!

  • @viceanterra4 A theory is defined as "A well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world; an organized system of accepted knowledge that applies in a variety of circumstances to explain a specific set of phenomena." Theories used in science actually encompass many facts. Gravity=Theory. Spacetime=Theory. Cells=Theory. The ones that don't make sense are weeded out quickly. Stop misleading people. "Just a theory" my ass.

  • humanity is imprisoned by the ability to travel the vast expanses of stars n universe..but.... in the the subatomic universe ...the skies is no limit!

  • We don't need a smasher to see what these particles are comprised of. I have a plan to build a microscope that is 100 miles tall. Through this we will be able to see the exact composition of all matter.

  • Individual strings and particles can't be seen with light wavelength, colliders allow us to understand what's happened from analyzing the fallout.

    Yet another dream ruined. :P

  • My microscope will compensate for this. Another advantage of the microscope is that it doesn't consume any power to operate as the collider does.

  • damn i just bombed my physics test today. why does physics have to be so hard?? even math is not that hard!!

  • physics is da bomb lol. we are opposites. i hate math but i like physics.

  • @viceanterra4 Well, math might one day allow us to realize why we have physics. But there is nothing physics can ever tell us about math.

  • math and physics are inter-related. You take one, subtract one....number or particle...and you know physics AND math.

    xooxox

    luv,

    jessie

  • @MadMadamJess, Really? What part of math changes if the universe didn't exist at all?

  • it's all a matter of perspective...it's subjective to a point. Some could say that the universe can, in fact, be mapped out in 1s and 0s.

    xoxoxo

    luv,

    jessie

  • @MadMadamJess, I see a huge difference. Math is inherently metaphysical in nature: nothing but statements about other metaphysical things and has absolutely nothing to do with any aspect of reality. All possible universes would share the exact same mathematics regardless of the laws of physics. Math is to physics as language is to communication--its a means to represent is all. It explains why they're so easily confused too; because the way we represent things affects how we see them.

  • Your analogy is perfect! You win. :) I lose. :-(

    xoxoxo

    luv,

    jessie

  • gluon? who cares gluon :)

  • Too bad we may not understand the results for years and years.

  • the mahine we prob collide in 2012 thats prob what will end the world :S?

  • our calendar is five years delayed respect to the mayan calendar, so the world should have ended in 2007 :)

    that's why film makers are now allowed to do movies such as 2012, because otherwise people would suicide like in 2000.

  • @immigrantpep LOL SUICIDES BASED ON CHRISTIANITY. WAY TO GO FANATICS.

  • Perfect attendance in sixth grade! haha, I love it

  • OOOUUUPPSS there goes my nobel prize.... worthless anyway

  • i wish i was better at math. I think about this stuff all day. i dont think being strangled by my own umbilical cord helped.

  • we are all one energy one super powerful mind i have connected to this and the work these scientist are doing is amazing i plan to use my new higher knowledge to unlock the secrets of the universe just as they do

  • Good luck with that. Maybe with your profound wisdom you'll be able to predict whether your customers want gherkin in their Big Macs or not.

  • I expect to see a small universe form there :)

  • Dr.Manhattan music:)

  • lolololoololll "oops i just dropped this mostly gold nobel prize"

  • Funny, but It is certainly not a Nobel Prize winner who has designed the box. I'll bet that there are more people who have dropped their priceless gold medal on the floor....

  • something about gold...

    why did the ancient's grind it to a fine powder and ingest?

    many of these "scientist's" are chasing their tails behind einstien's falacies

  • @AutoVerkstaden You're funny, sure, but you lost the subject!

    Never a nobel prize, not in desing, not in coments too!

  • I love the way how those highpaid new-age gurus say they can show us 'the answer'. They have absolutely no idea of what can be learned from scientific experiments or how science works. channeling, healing and spiritual guides are like a children's club where all kids agree on the rules or story of the imagination.

  • Well; scientifically speaking, what those "new age gurus" could be perceiving might be one of those other dimensions the female scientist was speaking of in the previous film; I think it would be interesting to see this because it would cooberate the Maya's idea that all life is interconnected and that when we expire in this dimension we would be reborn on another level of existence which COULD be another dimension and COULD be proven by science. That'd be interesting...

  • Oh yea I definetly agree on the interconnectedness, would be very interesting and I personally think it's exactly like that, but 'channeled water' will never cure cancer and ppl like Char will never talk to the dead.

  • Good topic and content but video effects are giving me headache.

  • Same here,,,,

  • i think they would discover some huge different from  what they or we suggested . so they wouldend understand that what they are seeing

  • That lady physicist is so damn foxy.

  • What if the Higgs boson turns out to be a little dude with a long gray beard siting on a throne? Won't we be embarrassed.

  • Wouldn't you love to have a chat with him. You'd have to rename it the leprechaun particle.

  • That would be awesome! He would have House Of Pain on his iPod, assuming it was male.

  • A particle that could make a pot of gold would make physics cool.

  • all those swirling lines and such are... particles...?

  • Not particles themselves, the tracks left by the particles.

  • yes. When a charge is moving in a magnetic field it moves in a spiral or a helix. The v component parallel to the magnetic field is affected by F=qv x B. Using the radius of the spirals scientists can calculate the mass and charge of the particles released.

  • It is nearly unbelievable on how many different levels you are an idiot. Neuroscience could learn a lot from so much Stupidity

  • just think about 600,000 years ago, we were jumping from trees, eating bananas . know were buliding giant particle accelerators, lol. what's gonna happen in the next 600,000 years?

  • Comment removed

  • LOL, i laughed so hard when the guy dropped his Nobel award. Seriously, people would die to get that... and jet he drops it..

  • shut the fuck up you fucking retard

  • The breakdown of the experiment is a massive government cover-up. They actually found the Higgs and created 4 alternate universes. Earth was trans-located inside one of these due to quantum phase shift keying. So we are technically living INSIDE the large hadron collider in universe Ureka-4B22E !!!!

  • now it makes sence why you are a retard

  • your an idiot

  • I guess their is no sense of humour in Ureka-4B22E!

  • Funny....

    Now we just need to find the Eludium Q36 explosive space modulator and all our problems will be solved.

  • we just voted Eludium Q36 to the presidency last year. cheers!

  • im always hearing about this stupid thing are they ever gonna use it holy shit. any results yet?...... yah of course not cuz its bullshit lmfao

  • yeah ive seen experimental results...

    high government officials and world leaders dont spend billions of dollars on extremlly educated and intelligent physicists for bullshit. I think the guys coming out of harvard and shit wiht a PhD in physics know a little more about it than a " Ganga King" maybe you should sober down. now if youll excuse, i have to go fly.

  • Almost all of man's problems are due to his inability to master himself. We are slaves to our passions such as greed, lust, envy, etc. These things are like a black hole to a solar system. They never have enough.

  • agreed.

  • It's surprising that it doesn't answer human problems but just adding more problems. Not until humans unit it force, without marginalization, the solution to life is far from LHC project to understand the universe.

  • most people are not inclined to the wierdness of all these. I don't even bother to try to understand it cause it is enough to drive one crazy.

  • It will be even cooler if they don't find the Higgs particle. That would suggest a totally new conception of particle physics was coming down the line. Otherwise we'll be a bit stuck.

  • ......No we wouldnt be stuck at all, if this created anything at all it would be enough to travel the universe

  • agreed. bc in most likelihood it wont be much of news

  • well, the Nazi's invented Cesarian Borth's during WW 2 to mimic the Arian Race from the Bible, now they're trying to create a Neutrino that carry's the compacted Soul - Bright, on the magentic Van Allen Belt's, and Mohammed the Porphet did that Night Time Journey in less than a 24th of a second. So how slack is Man Made Science today compared to the Eath's Natural lay Line Grid that's been here since the beginning of calculated Time itself!.

  • it makes me smile to know that these ideas, if presented at an earlier time, would be considered utter insanity. It makes me look at those that seem insane today with a more curious eye.

  • ""of thingany HIS HAS acheived""

    thank you very much.

  • He clearly values knowledge and science over material things and silly awards.

  • Shut up retard. Until you manage to do even 0.1 % of anything his achieved you should go shit in a cave and rot!

  • "of anything HE HAS achieved"

    your welcome.

  • "You're welcome."

  • thank u

  • "Thank you."

  • Brian Cox is the shit

  • The "Moving Dimensions Theory" is to be found.

  • whoops lol xd

  • Only humans would suffer the loss of humanity, and since were all sitting on this surface or floating around it .. there would be no humans left to mourn the loss. The cosmos is a mysterious place and we should find out more about it, just because we can. Its worth the small risk, we have to trust our scientists.. after all they know best.

  • Why must you attempt to spread apocalyptic fear throughout society. Has religion not cursed humanity enough, with its "truth" and "justice"?

    The arrogance of religion affects all of our lives, from its wars down to 2009 A.D. Religion is for people scared of the unknown an invisible safety net.

    What are you afraid of, eternal paradise? or misplaced faith?

    Right enough of that, I am excited about the information these experiments can provide, the human race is nothing if not curious :-)

  • "Magnetic trap of Devil". Gee that sounds pretty scientific. lol.

  • Think about this for a while. With the LHC, does not seem logical that spirituality (religion) and science should be reconciled? If we are trying to find the secrets of the Universe shouldn't we answer both the physical & metaphysical questions simultaneously?

    I have spoken to some scientist at my university and they agree in private that religion and science will one day reach a point where they both will converge onto each other. To the point that you wont be able to tell the difference.

  • Yeah, psychology.

  • LHC hopefully will put an end to religions.

  • this will be a remarkable breakthrough for both technological and moral standards as we know them. To answer mlf8986's question:

    The actual collision was planned on 24 october.

    And there were 3 tests scheduled before the actual collision, one of these was on 10 september, which was a success, but the taking down of the particles caused a hydraulic to pop, now they're waiting for the energy levels and heat to drop, it takes a while to cool down 10 billion degrees, they calculated a month.

  • if CERN produces black holes it would be the size of a grain of sand or smaller and they would decay rapidly!!! Also if a black hole was produced the mass to be huge huge as in like a universe black hole

  • "And here is my priceless nobel prize, (drops it) oh shit, broke it again."

  • Ask Steven Hawking :C

    (And to give you a perspective, our sun can't become a black hole when it dies, and our sun is HUGE.. HUUUUGE compared to two protons... (And yes, protons fuse all the time in the sun))

  • hope we dont get fucked up !!!
