Prof. Andrea Damascelli does some cool demonstration of Levitation in UBC's Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) Lab.

I like the girl who is trying too hard and laughs loudly at the professors non-joke.

Everyone wants to show the cool shit but try finding a video explaining it.

@walaweh89 the liquid nitrogen is used to cool it below -185'C making the material super conductive. AKA liquid nitrogen has nothing to do with it.

Where are you going to be late for?

The wheel turns because it is pushed along by this other wheel and that wheel turns because it is pushed along by yet another wheel ..... and on it goes until we get to the first wheel ..... and nobody knows what makes that one turn .... and if I can't explain that, have I explained anything at all ? It's like the big bang. Out of nothing came everything. Can that nothing be explained ?
-
i have a question here. . .can we trap it using another method instead using liquid nitrogen?

@apj3108 turns out I was a high school physics teacher with a B.Sc in physics but my point is that no matter what model or explanation we come up with, we will always be left with a 'why', in other words a mystery and therefore an incomplete explanation. What we call explanations might more appropriately becalled descriptions.

He made a fucking levitating think but he took 3 minutes to get the "pac" out of the tube. Its wonderful.

Turn on the stabilization of that camera...next time.

this is more of a demonstration than an explanation.

@claudelebel55 This is about best explanation you can get on superconductivity, if you do not have some basic understanding of quantum mechanics. High Temperature superconductivity is still one of the mysteries in modern Physics, where many effects observed have not been explained by our current understanding of Physics. Not trying to sound intimidating, but I'm afraid you would have to take a few courses in modern physics and QED if you truly want to understand what goes in there :)
