  • The framework in which quantum mechanics and special relativity are successfully reconciled is called quantum field theory.
    Heres how you can easily understand Quantum Field Theory.

    In theoretical physics, quantum field theory (QFT) is the theoretical framework for constructing quantum mechanical models of subatomic particles in particle physics and quasiparticles in condensed matter physics. QFT treats particles as excited states of the underlying physical field, so these are called field quanta.
    In quantum field theory, quantum mechanical interactions among particles are described by interaction terms among the corresponding underlying quantum fields. These interactions are conveniently visualized by Feynman diagrams, which are a formal tool of relativistically covariant perturbation theory, serving to evaluate particle processes.

    Nice one. I like the general style, editing and music. The "You are awesome" was a tad too much for me though ;)
    All I can give as creative advice would be to maybe change things up once in a while in the future. Take real-life footage (fruit or real vending machines for example) when you do metaphors. And maybe there are some other CZcamsrs or animators around who'd do a collaboration. ;)

    • @quahntasy
      @quahntasy  Před 7 lety

      Thanks Necro.I think I should work on more videos before approaching any big guys for collaboration.Thanks for advice :)

    • @LeonNighttime
      @LeonNighttime Před 7 lety +2

      IMO that's the wrong approach. Chances are that you'll get easily overlooked by big channels regardless how famous yours is. Science channels mostly don't have a huge amount of subscribers. If you see a video of someone and you like what they do just try to ask those for a collaboration (right then and there).
      The best point in time for that is when you already have an idea and a script for a video and are ready to go at any time.

    @cslloyd1 Před 3 lety +2

    i have watched dozens of videos on QFT. This is the only one that states outright that there is ONLY 1 field (of a given type) for the entire universe and that all particles of that type exist in the same field. so many more questions arise from this, for example, can two electrons exist in the same space (ie pass through each other), or do they merge? why do they repel? so many more questions than answers.

    • @bachirmessaouri4772
      @bachirmessaouri4772 Před 5 lety

      How would it be possible? How can you look at a fundamental particular that has the size scale of ONE photon when looking at things needs billions of those photons to be captured by the instrument?
      At that scale, microscopes are useless and will always be. Especially if these particules are near to the size of a point, which means no size at all.
      All we need is to formulate a theory which doesn't contradicts the macroscopic reality and which is valid enough to make predictions.
      If you have one of those, your theory is as valid as any other one.

  • @Dyslexic-Artist-Theory-on-Time

    Good vid!!! This is an invitation to see an interpretation of the mathematics of Quantum Mechanics as a geometrical process of energy exchanges that forms what we see and feel as the passage of time! In such a theory the Planck's constant ħ= h/2π is a
    constant of action in the process that forms the continuum of time. Heisenberg's
    Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π represents the same uncertainty we have with any future event with the future unfolding photon by photon with each new photon electron coupling or dipole moment! With classical physics representing processes over a period of time as in Newton’s differential equations. We have a universal process of energy exchange with an emergent future relative to the atoms of the periodic table (us) with ‘time’
    being a creative process not just a process of decay or entropy.

    Dumb Hippie - "If we are all fields.. then this MUST mean I can influence the physical world with my MIND!" All joking aside, I do notice the whole "everything is fields" thing when I am tripping and I "guess" when you can feel someone staring at you, but that in no way means that I think you can "control the physical reality, see into the future" via "spiritual means" that is sloppy and unscientific, magical thinking..

    • @CertifiedZoologist
      @CertifiedZoologist Před 5 lety

      James Livingston I believe it's possible. If we are all as humans made up of matter, and matter simplifies down to energy and that energy simplifies down to frequency which is just information, we along with the air around our skin and beyond are all just wavelengths vibrating at different speeds sending different info. Now this is where I get to why I believe we can manipulate these waves. When a electrode is not being observed its is not matter it is frequency, but when a scientist looks at the electrode through a microscope, that electrode takes form to solidify the particle, but when it's no longer being observed again back into frequency it goes. I t has long been believed in esoterics that when in a deep meditative state, deep enough that you forget about you, your body, your environment, time, and space and become pure awareness(frequency) you can then create. And all this quantom field stuff that they didn't have back then(or maybe they did) backs that in some people's mind. But to each their own, believe what you want that's all it is a belief.
