The Strong Force: A Chat with Nobel Laureate David Gross

[MegaAstrodude]

Why are the strong and weak forces necessarily distinct from electromagnetism? I see no reason for the physicists to make this unpleasant assumption based on my understandings of their experiments because the electromagnetic field created by charged particles has gravity of its own! At a small scale, couldn't this cause the 'net' gravity of the charged particle to be much greater than the repulsive electromagnetism?

Well well, I hope they don't loose ground and get wrapped up in the beauty of their equations. In the end, nature and not beauty decides whether a theory is correct or not.

The Nobel Prize isn't that impressive. Idiots who blindly buy the hype and have no idea about the actual work of its recipients are impressed with it. It's awarded politically by the Kingdom of Sweden, not even touching the subjective nature of gauging merit. The only people who find a Nobel impressive are those who can't think for themselves. What kind of prize is one that impresses people who can't think? Mathematically, String theory is weak at best. It isn't empirical nor falsifiable.

@JackOfferlott :You dont get it, maybe the price doesn't cover all and is was biased by life and those who examine the stuff .But the Cermony is what is left from a victorian period and is grand and the only one left from history. other prizes are just crap in comparison.

They did created a quantum computer, we are seeing it right now... literally, we are on it. Don't think so? check out Matrix is real (spin off video of original science show)

The official Nobel Prize YouTube channel currently has a project called Ask a Nobel Laureate where the YouTube community has the unique opportunity to pose their questions directly to a Nobel Laureate and see the responses. The participating Nobel Laureate is David Gross who received the Nobel Prize in Physics 2004 and he is currently Director at The Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics at UC Santa Barbara.

We would like to encourage your viewers to pose their questions.

Can such heretical atom exist in the nature ? Atom : Electron & Proton Pauli wrote in 1924 : Each quantum state in the atom is not limited

of two electrons, but only of one electron

It means in the atom can be only one single electron

The electron manages the atom

If the atom contains more than one electron

(for example two) this atom represents Siamese twins Save us God of having many electrons in the atoms and cells

OK?...Shouldn't that comparison to a priesthood / brotherhood be an insult ? I mean...for a public scientific educational establishment? Good Grief...maybe that "former researcher" is/was trying to tell you something?

i love math. but that's the main reason why i managed to realize that mathematical model can NEVER describe the world around us for what it REALLY is. No matter how good or how advanced this model is.

too bad he doesnt realize that and thinks that math will answer all the questions.

Math sure is a great ancient tool.

But it's time to make a better one.

think outside of the box people. Mathematical system is one of the boxes you HAVE TO think outside of.

@ActiveStorage You're a moron.

[ActiveStorage]

@slantythecamel nice strong well structured argument lol. what else can you say?

[slantythecamel]

@ActiveStorage Seemed the most appropriate response to the utter nonsense you posted. Not going to waste my time with well structured arguments for someone who's head is up their ass.

[ActiveStorage]

@slantythecamel sure sure. nothing to say. its ok lol

I wonder if we could assume that the universe had no beginning, but always was.

[BrutusBlackest]

Stephen Hawking does.

[seanmPWH]

Sorry but that's an ugly post-modern building.

They really should deinterlace their videos.
