What are virtual particles?
Virtual particles are one of those topics of modern physics that just don’t sound real. How can particles just appear and disappear without anyone seeing them. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don dives into the topic, giving us an understanding of how virtual particles arise from quantum field theory.

    This is simply not true. The Standard Model makes no prediction whatsoever regarding the vacuum energy, for it is not calculable. I am shocked to see such a false statement being made in public. Maybe it's due to the fact that the speaker is not a theoretical physicists and so he does not do this for his living as say I and many others do, but then he should not speak of what he is not an expert of.

    5:50 Could somebody PLEASE answer my question: EVERY time I see or hear applications of HUP (Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle) INCLUDING this video, it seems to ME that the lecturer conflates the UNCERTAINTY in a value with the VALUE ITSELF. So, why couldn't a particle whose energy we know lies somewhere between SUPER BIG value minus delta-E and SUPER BIG value plus delta-E for a VERY LONG TIME whose value we know to be SUPER BIG value minus delta-t and SUPER BIG value plus delta-t pop into existence, as long as delta-E*delta-t > small number>0, and not violate HUP?

    what is the significance of the higgs boson in the standard model?

  • @krensak
    @krensak Před dnem

    General relativity does not predict a value for the cosmological constant. It is a free parameter of the theory that has to be measured. The standard model does not predict the cosmological constant all by itself either. That is because you have to introduce a regularization or renormalization procedure to reduce the formally infinite zero-point energy density to something finite and there are no techniques for Feynman diagrams that describe vacuum (bubble diagrams), because they are not needed in the renormalization of expressions for cross sections or non-vacuum energies. So the culprit for the large error is the cutoff procedure for regularization (which is not part of the standard model). If you calculate both the vacuum energy density and the vacuum pressure with the cutoff at the Planck scale, you find that the equation of state is not that of a vacuum (which is known from the requirement of Lorentz invariance of the vacuum). If you use dimensional regularization instead, the equation of state takes the correct form, and the error of the prediction reduces (from a factor of 10¹²⁰) to a factor of 10⁵⁰. Which is of course still very bad...

    What scares me is the fact that the next step will require a change so big to current beliefs that may destabilise the understanding of physicists. The next step may require philosophers to be first in line. The entire meaning of the word "Space" could well be subverted, and our perception of the reality of dealing with separate and countable objects or entities may lose any meaning. I want to see how the edifice of the Universal constants is implicated in the cycles of the Universe, and how the concept of symmetry is changed by it...

There is technically no limit however once you get around 50 or 60 you pretty much can calculate the universe however the problem is keeping them from decoherence. Dr Don..vid pls 😊

    • @drdon5205
      @drdon5205 Před 2 dny

      The correct equation is E^2 = (pc)^2 + (mc^2)^2. If momentum (p) = 0, you get E = mc^2. So that equation only works for non-moving particles. If you set mass (m) = 0, you get E = pc. That's for photons. And there are some who like to invent the idea of virtual mass, which tries to extend the E = mc^2 equation, but the real version of it is E = gamma mc^2.

    Well lets see if you have no mass, mass and no energy and no space thus & no time. How then do you have a wave. A wave is only a wave inside time. Kind of makes me think there is some logic issues with that one. General relativity is easily explained with photons that drop below the power to raise the state of an electron. But not just that consider the number of photons that left stars that will never reach another object. Consider how much mass a star converts to light and energy daily. Then think about how much of that is just traveling through space never reaching any point.

    Although with some concepts we do not now accept, 2500 years ago Parmenides spotted this problem (and came up with a radical block universe proposition!). A brief shout out to Xenocrates, with similar caveats, for the indivisible line (a foreshadowing of Planck and possibly string theory?). Just thinking outside the physics 'cave' (sorry Plato) and into the wonderful world of pre-socratic philosophy.

    8:55 this is wrong. The basketball will **not** appear/look flat. In fact it will pretty much stay somewhat round but with some additional weird effects. Google Penrose-Terrell effect. This is the problem when we speak of "what an observer sees" because "seeing" in SRT does not translate well into what we mean with this word in everyday life (camera/eye).

    If gravity is just deformation of space time what would happen to a fixed mass (not moving) put next to an other fixed mass? From the descriptions of relativity If gravity is not a force then the two masses should stay fixed and not attract each other. They can behave like attracting each other only if they have a certain impulsion (they are moving). Did I get this right? everyone trying to explain gravity only talk about moving bodies and none talks about fixed bodies.????

    NO, just simply no. Light, gravity and all other forces do not have a speed. There is no physical ball of substance (a Boson) moving through space transferring that force. That was just more Victorian nonsense. Forces are direct and INSTANT. If light and gravity APPEAR to have a delay, but that is Impossible due to physics. then EXPLAIN the apparent delay! Einstein made up a fake-invisible-magical moderator instead of solving it properly. Time is local, there is no signal delay, there is a difference in the local appearance of the present.

    @unethicaldesigns Před 3 dny

    you really shouldn’t call it an “antigravity” machine. Gravity is caused by the mass of an object in space. The only way you could even really come up with that name is if you don’t even understand the machine you are trying to make. If you want to make a machine that can make its own gravitational field, that would be a gravity machine. An ANTIgravity machine would be a machine able to ignore gravity altogether and not be affected by the gravity of other objects no matter their mass. Making it practically weightless, THAT is antigravity.

      Then the argument of the Universe thought, my thinking, to expanding faster then the speed of light, its like the comparison of the Solar System having less heat to the other planets, but the wind velocity is so much greater. Need a possible reason? The inner bodies to the Sun are slowed by heat of the Sun, which is why their fusion mass is so able to be bonding or adding to the mass's weight of travel. The lack of heat holding back a mass to feeling natural on its own is thus relieved in the outer parts and the cause of dust storms. {Better participation with the sensitive gravitation field found in empty Space.}

    What I always was puzzled by is: the heisenberg uncertainty principle is a limit of how precisely we can measure a subatomic particle.

    • @narfwhals7843

      The uncertainty principle is _not_ about measurement. It's a statement about how precisely some properties can be defined with respect to each other. In quantum field theory the thing that has the property is the field, not the particle. The field is always there.
