  • Our universe is made of matter. Yet the Big Bang produced essentially equal amounts of matter and antimatter according to our most fundamental understanding of the building blocks of nature. The inability of our fundamental theory to describe this basic feature of our universe is the great frustration of modern physics. In this one-hour lecture, held on Feb. 19, 2021, Dr. Gerald Gabrielse, Northwestern University, gives an introduction to antimatter and matter, explains the theoretical framework that explains particle interactions, and gives examples of attempts to solve the mystery of antimatter.
    Dr. Gerald Gabrielse, a member of the National Academy of Science and the American Academy of the Arts and Sciences, is a Trustees Professor at Northwestern University. His vision, techniques and measurements started low-energy antiproton and antihydrogen research at the European laboratory CERN. He has made the most precise measurement of a property of an elementary particle, the electron’s magnet, to test the Standard Model’s most precise prediction. His test of whether the electron charge is spherical is one of the most sensitive tests for physics beyond the Standard Model.

    This is brilliant. I am not well educated in either physics or maths (though I am trying...very trying) but this makes a lot of sense and it is explained in such a way that I really do think I have grasped the concept. I anyone reading comments takes pity on a weak soul like like me, please help me work out the units of of energy shown at 16:00. I get really confused with going from metres per second and kilograms to kilowatt--hours. Thank you.

  • @OldGamerNoob
    @OldGamerNoob Před 3 lety +2

    If the electron's magnetic moment were an actual current loop, I think the smallest it could be would be if all its charge were flowing through the loop at the speed of light.
    I wonder if that size is smaller than that "largest electron size limit" threshold permitted by the limits of our current measurement capability...or if the accuracy of our measurements so far have already definitely disproven this possibility.

    • @NGC6144
      @NGC6144 Před 3 lety +4

      Well, way back when it was conjectured that the electron's magnetic moment was due to literal spin along with it's charge of coarse. Wolfgang Pauli shot this down determining that the electron would have to be spinning something like hundreds to a few thousands of times faster than the speed of light(I can't remember which) to generate the magnitude of the electron's magnetic moment; That's a no go. Extend this to your idea. Electrons are often stated as having no size, almost like singularities. They seem very small at high energy but in lower energies in atomic orbitals they become theoretically extended "clouds" of standing waves. This is where I think the QFT people would chime in: There are no particles only fields interacting... with their intrinsic properties.

    What is the symmetry nature of the universe? Let begin with the macro cosmos symmetry: We know that some clusters in some larger galaxies are symmetrically situated in the planes parallel to the equatorial plane of the galaxy, but some another formations such as solar system for example hasn’t symmetrically situated planets or moons of the planets, where never the least exist planets for example Jupiter and Saturn with clear visible symmetrical belts. In the micro cosmos we can register particles such as protons, electrons and other strong interacting particles which strictly observe symmetrically localization such as space position and interaction, but another particles or processes lost this symmetry and we call them weak interactions where the symmetry observe in far low level or doesn’t observe at all. We know also that some energy resonances (dispersing resonances) have inside symmetry similar to the planets Jupiter and Saturn symmetrical belts, but on these resonances, where obviously belong the bosons (because we can’t and never measure whether these particles possess momentum and therefore mass in repose, or don’t), there the symmetry comes from the complex phases on higher level of main quantum number. Why it is so and what force makes this phenomenon? From the multitude experiments we know that symmetry stay somehow above the huge range of particles, galaxies stars and so on, then from where and how comes this phenomenon called symmetry? The answer is very simple: The symmetry comes from the essence of field formation and it is field property pushing into the masses behavior (particles, galaxies and so on).
    On pages 55, 56, 57 USM www.kanevuniverse.com is shown the essence of polarization of the space and the equation of that, which is universally about the all stable fields: gravitational, electromagnetic and nuclear and explain in very simple and convincing way behavior of strong and weak interactions. In particular it is explains the belts of Jupiter and Saturn and their approximately sizes.
    Why this mathematically formalism describing symmetry preservation in Brian’s lecture is unfit for physical application? Because any phenomenon actually does represent all generalize coordinates dynamical depending actions and there is no way to examine particular process (for example one dimension rotation) without to take into account the dynamical dependences by the rest of “dynamical world”! Which means: Where is the energy of engine rotating the object which symmetry we observe?
    Is it possible to exist constant velocity if we haven’t had or haven’t acceleration? Of course the answer is not it is impossible: V=dV/dt.dt=a.dt So if absent (a) there absent (V) as well! That is why I always said that special relativity can apply only in absolute or empty space which obviously cannot exist because of contradiction to basic physical laws. Simply if we assert that such space does exist then we must to see this and therefore we are already there and obviously this space is no longer empty or absolutely!
    Now about “simultaneously” in case of inter movement of two observers. The delusion here is again that we are accepting velocity of light which hasn’t depending by the medium and its movement which means that light hasn’t dynamically interaction with the matter because there is accepted that the empty space is equal to the vacuum! But vacuum obviously is not empty space because the contrary will contradict to the shown above equation and therefore to the basic physical law!The same is in force about so called Higgs boson because in empty space where we haven’t accelerations we haven’t the energy as well!
    According to the concept of big bang the Higgs field is purely energy without any masses (masses don’t exist yet!) So if this field indeed exist then how we can measure such phenomenon if we haven’t masses and therefore accelerations and forces…. How we can know that such thing called Higgs boson indeed exist… So obviously this conception it isn’t fit with the fundamental rules of the physics and I wonder how such conception can define by the physicist? This is naïve view over the universe. Moreover according to USM www.kanevuniverse.com energy and masses always are hand with hand.. it is impossible to exist one of them without the other…. In such way the described problem is avoidable and this is the right physical direction!
    Next let begin with the nature of particle-antiparticle. All what we know about this phenomenon is that antiparticle is mirror image of respectively particle, but what is the essence nature of this dualism particle antiparticle? The answer comes from the essence of the field and polarization of the space in accordance with the USM www.kanevuniverse.com part I. Let see also page 195 to 198 USM where is given convincingly explanation of the nature question of antiparticle, which in summarizing fashion is the following: Antiparticle it is particle escaping from its own polarization space to the contrary one so quickly that there it isn’t tame to reverse its kinematic parameters, which immediately follows by annihilation. It is obviously that some form of common existence even in some not proved as a physical medium fantasy like a black hole it isn’t possible. Let remember again what should to be the black hole conception according to general relativity: Never forget the definition of black hole according to general relativity and it is place in the space where nothing can escape and anything stream in! Sensible person immediately ask you..where all these come in like masses, energies and soon, and you cannot give him reasonable answer…… G.Kanev

Especially if the only thing an electron annihilates with is a positron..What does an anti-muon annihilate with?

    @charlesgantz5865 Před 3 lety

    Would the anti-Gabrielse annihilate the regular matter Gabrielse if they met? Regular matter objects, and presumably antimatter objects, when they meet don't pass through each other (i.e., bounce) because of the Pauli Exclusion Principle. Since the Exclusion Principle doesn't apply to matter/antimatter, if it did they couldn't meet to annihilate, anti-Gabrielse and Gabrielse could pass through each other. So annihilation comes down to the probability of the electrons and anti-electrons, and the protons and anti-protons, colliding. Since the volume of the particles is extremely small compared to the volume of Gabrielse (no offence), the probability of annihilations would be very small, and probably unnoticeable.

    @jainalabdin4923 Před 3 lety +1

    At the early Big Bang stage, wouldn't you need perfect mixing (high entropy) for both matter and antimatter to completely annihilate each other? Because this hasn't happened, mainly matter surviving agrees with the Past Hypothesis of low entropy at the beginning of the Universe. There must've been some asymmetry present at the beginning that left one type of matter abundant. Or we could just be in a bubble with matter, and bubbles of distant antimatter exist beyond the Observable Universe.
