Ha, I attended lectures at Cern in the late 80s early 90s, this content would have taken a week on gigantic white boards - now it takes a few minutes and is accessible to everybody - Bravo :)

What i love in particular about this video is, you are carefully explaining what a MODEL actually is, and how is it constructed / supported / verified. I hope this will help someone to stop saying things like "this is just a theory". Thank you so much for this perfectly prepared, professional video!

This is fascinating.Physics at high school in the 1970s was a guy in a white lab coat with a Pyrex beaker with an ice cube and thermometer in it. My attention was soon lost. Thanks for rekindling my interest nearly 50 years later.

Why weren’t there science teachers like this when I was a kid. Well Done pure magic. Loved this video

Holy particles! This video is so perfect, I'm taking particle physics right now as an undergraduate and this summarizes very well the introduction I had. Good job to everyone involved.

Wow!! I am really impressed, it's like this channel is a time machine that whisked me back to early high school days when these topics were presented in the most boring and disjointed manner by someone that did not have a clue really but had to present the material.

I love it when a new PI resource drops right as I am planning my physics courses for the year. As always thanks.

THAT was fabulous. She is such a wonderful communicator!

That was probably the best narrative for explaining particle physics i've ever seen! In an ideal world, everyone involved in producing this video would have the salary of a pop-star.

This is really fantastic. The metaphors used combined with their animations make it super easy to understand. I'll be sharing this with anyone who wants a great first look into qm.

Simple and informative. Thanks for sharing.

very clear and precise summary of today's understandings and the addition of pre and post LHC understanding adds spice to production.

I loved this intro to particle physics. It's smart and sassy, with some intelligent humor, and it's really well produced and presented. Great job everyone!

Excellent production. Thanks!

So refreshing to see lots of brilliant woman talking science.

What a brilliant production !!! Perimeter you rock !

"On the spectrum" means, in part), that in the intro when she talked about proton beams going in opposite directions, but made hand gestures to illustrate two beams going in the _same_ direction it caught my mental gaze and I missed the next bunch of things she said.

Excellent explanation in a very simple & demostrated way. Very nice to view it.

You use these special tweezers to pick up the particle, and drop it into the intake port on the collider. It takes a delicate touch.

What a spectacular video. Very interesting, very well explained.

I am a fourth-year astrophysics student. I love videos like this because it gets young students interested in physics. Having said that, if you are going to study physics, be prepared. If you struggle through your Calculus classes, it will only get harder.... much harder. Furthermore, you may only take one or two classes talking about fun things like black holes or particle physics. Even quantum mechanics doesn't really talk about colliders, gluons, higgs etc. In QM class, you learn the very basic fundamentals of particles; how they behave in basic settings. It's fun, but be prepared.

Very nice & simple way of explaining complex physics. Thank u.

no doubt the best and more consistent and coherent explanation of the constituent particles world... (as our current models were developed and corrected... so far... ) just a bit elaboration on the diverse 'known fields' and their co-existence--- what is their nature (as far as we know...) and how they permeate through reality to gave us the 'living experience' and 'perception of reality' would be great!

Great presentation with some cool graphics. Enjoyed! Thank you.

Well explained using interesting analogies!

Awesome video. Great production and content.

Good presentation. I really enjoyed it.

Amazing video, what a great watch.

Interesting style, love it.

Thank you and love you all.

love your explanations

i love the way she explains!!!

This should be shown in every single physics class.

A lovely style, love it.

Very nicely done 👍

Brilliant production

So good! Thank you PI

Brilliant presentation

Excellent! Great video :-)

"The Beginning of Time ", when matter began to move. I was in a bus from Paris to Milan, via Geneva. Near enough to the LHC Mass is slow energy

“If you wish to understand the Universe, think of energy, frequency and vibration.” Nikola Tesla

Does it mean if energy is not moving from one place to another place but is in one place for a long time (i.e within certain volume) then it can be called as mass/rest mass?? Example:binding energy??

Hey, I overlapped with Brigitte V. on an experiment at Fermilab :-) BTW, very nicely done...

Doesn't it seem strange that the announcement of the fair certainty of the discovery of the Higgs was July 4, 2012? Like many others, I knew what the announcement _must_ be, the buzz was unending, yet still my heart raced. It seems like only yesterday, but it was nine years ago! Now we're trembling at the edge of the new restart--so much excitement!

Thanks you, thanks you, thanks you, you demystify atoms for me. I can now die happy.

Awesome video!

Great video.

and again the higgs field is portrait as giving mass to particles while in neutrons and protons the mass comes from the virtual and real gluons inside it and a portion for the quarks. only for some particles is the higgs field contributing for mass. for a better understanding of the higgs watch Leonard Susskind lecture on : de-mistifying the higgs boson.

Thanks guys

Really nicely made. However, I wish videos like these would list and describe some of the technical applications of The Standard Model in commercial products (e.g. cell phones, materials manufacturing of things like solar panels and graphene, atom hydrogen bombs, etc., so the average person won't think of The Standard Model of Physics as "la dee da... and then we'll move on to another theory. What a waste of billions of dollars."

the best video i've seen so far:):):):):):):)

I think you have the understanding of the quarks of being (down/up) and backwards/forwards in the action that keeps the quarks together and the understanding of the electron/photon of being (backwards/forwards) in the Higgs boson field, and the understanding of the Higgs boson of being (left/right), now its the understanding of the (center), because you have 6 sides of the inside square, now its the understanding of the center action of that square that effects the outside of the square, the 8 directions of quantum mechanics.

i finally understood a very complex thing

Had to laugh! Did a David Attenborough with, ''Particle Physicists. There they are in their natural habitat.''

Beautiful

1:16 : She says about two proton beams travelling in oposite direction but her hands (point fingers) move in the same direction , different phase. Or am i wrong ? (lol)

Ernest Rutherford was from New Zealand.

How does the big bang theory account or explain the higs field in that theory?

Would there be different particles in samples of rock from a different planet?

In my best David Attenborough impersonation: And there they are; Particle Physicists in their natural habitat; all dosed up on caffeine, sugar and Psilocybin mushrooms. Their chalk dusted fingers endlessly scrawling Feynman diagrams onto black board in a ceaseless search for the dark matter particle that would catapult them to a Nobel Prize and international stardom.

A question - if you have TWO beams of protons striking each other head on at nearly the speed of light - are they actually colliding faster than the speed of light?

Where do I go to pick up a subscription to the Particle Enquirer?

Very,very, interesting...

Where can we buy the standard tool box

"Everyone loves smashing things together." - Physics

I'm not sure whether I'm more surprised to hear that it's the largest machine ever built or that it's LHC for short.

From 3:57 to 9: 40 practicly you say the following that energy may create mass, that this 2 are the same thing, that you cant tell which one really is from one onother, the only thing you can tell is that one goes left and the other right - or up and down, the thing is that this pairs go always oposite, if one goes one corner the other goes the oposite etc. correct me if I am wrong. At time 8:52 there is a picture of how matter comes out of the blue, where one say goes up side or north and the other goes down or south that such a thing is that we dont see the foton with so much energy that then becomes mass at the right time seen in coliders. To me energy and mass sure are the same thing but in different states, say plasma state is the neutral kind of like the sea water; light is kind the vapor that goes up the sea and CMB its cold-light or broken diffracted back light as rain so all is a cicle like rain here in earth. The above is seen in DNA pictures, one shows how light diffracts back from a sphere so 2 intense lighted arcs are produced, same thing is seen in whater melons, cosmos pictures like quasars are very identical to the DNA picture just described. Hannes electric solar diagram fits better for all systems: subatoms, atoms, cells, our body, we inside earth, earth inside the solar sistem, our star inside our galaxie, our galaxie inside clusters of galaxies, cluster of galaxies inside of super clusters of galaxies and why not on and on so to form our universe, and why stop in here? why not could our universe be an atom of another body? but to me must have an end, i mean cant go over and over,the systems with time get rigide then with time colapses. Hannes diagram are 2 mayor blocks divided by an equator with arows pointing to converge at the center is my guess so to redue the cicle. - My opinion is that this diagram must to have another seperate equator very near each other so the up side equator belongs to south side block and the bottom equator belongs to the south side - actually to me this 2 blocks just mix a bit at the center producing the white sphere as seen in our galaxie To me what you call energy is the change from one state to the other and this changes make turbulanses so the system moves.

The raisin bun got my interest.

So, the electron plus and minus particles stuck together are like the kids of a proton and neutron who snuck away in the missile of the night and eloped. Would account for all the charges.

GREAT 👍

nice one

CERN MISTAKE:: With the Unruh effect would also cause the decay rate of accelerating particles to differ from inertial particles so with the Unruh effect would also cause the decay rate of accelerating particles to differ from inertial particles .. CERN is an accelerator of particles so that made accelerating particles which has not the same decay that "inertial" particles in the same referent

Many years ago my chum Tootch had an album titled “ Quark Strangeness & Charm “ which I then believed had merely something to do with the effects of smoking weed whilst enjoying the said album . - Having digested the information in this fantastic lecture , should i revisit the album to discover greater depths in understanding just what Hawkwind were getting at ? 🤔

Once there was a fellow called ETHER.......Albert shoot at it. And disappeared!!!! Now there is a friend of ETHER called HIGGS FIELD. He is very concerned that Albert may came back......

I am now smarter than I was 30 mins ago, so Thank You!

Theres nothing that beats a smart yet pretty gal talking about smashing things together! I like to keep the particles from interacting though.

I think the Higgs boson can be split like the ve-e and the vu-u and the vt-t.

If two protons are going around the LHC at near the speed of light in opposite directions come together - is their collision speed >C? Or does relativity say that their closing speed is nearer the speed of light but remains

How are there 26 down votes at the time I'm viewing? This is gold. I'm going to be showing my kids.

What is the weak hypercharge?

what is the medium these particles occupy... is it nothing ... is nothing (space) energy... what is distance ???

If E=MC2 = True then can we explain structure and evolving definitions of M/C? If it is that simple how can it be so complex?

When the higgs field is everywhere - is it probably static? Only growing with the universe but beside this not moving. So everything moving is passing the static higgs field?

How much haven’t we learned and yet we have the audacity to believe we know everything.

The 3 Quarks that make up the neutron or proton,... how was that determined? 2 down, one up, 2 up one down.... sounds so precise. How was that tested? So much of this sounds as if a mathematical equation was used to describe something and if the math worked,... then it was assumed that nature followed form and function.... we didn't really see it per se.

very great kids think in terms of fields

Before our imagination attaches to particle physics it would be advised to read Art Hobson's paper, There are no particles, there are only fields.

Hi, I believe I can explain Gravitation as a 4 dimentional phenomenon. I'll explain(pardon my english) We know a linear accelerating frame mimics gravity, that is, a 3 Dimentional motion is mimicing gravity on a 2D plane. Imagine a body moving in a 4 dimentional space, if there's a 4th dimension and if everything is moving in that frame, we will never experience that in a single 3d plane (like a 2D motion can't be observed in a single 1D frame). But if there's a difference in velocity between any two objects, we will experience that difference as Gravitation in 3d space, that velocity difference will appear as a time dilation around the two objects, because of this time dilation one object will appear as it is falling with an acceleration. A 4 D motion is mimicking Gravitation in 3d space... We say light travels with a speed c, what if it's not the light, what if everything in this world is moving in a 4th dimension...

I'm buckling up my seatbelt cause I know I am in for a wild ride

Why mass converted into energy at relativistic scales. Other states becoming invalid from of matter.

great

Moscow Aviation Institute - MAI - International Student's Page has given the following the thumbs up. It's all clearly correct. The Institute of Physics, Patna has now given the following writing the thumbs up. Excellent.♥️ THE MATHEMATICAL PROOF THAT ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY IN A BALANCED FASHION IS SUCCESSFULLY DEMONSTRATED: "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. THE SUN AND THE EARTH are F=ma AND E=mc2, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. E=mc2 is DIRECTLY AND FUNDAMENTALLY DERIVED FROM F=ma. F=ma AND E=mc2 PROVE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY, AS ALL of SPACE is NECESSARILY ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL (IN BALANCE); AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. This explains F=ma AND E=mc2, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, GRAVITATIONAL FORCE/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ACCORDINGLY, ALL of SPACE is NECESSARILY ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL (IN BALANCE); AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent WITH/AS what is BALANCED ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL FORCE/ENERGY, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. GREAT !!! Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. INDEED, A PHOTON may be placed at the center of THE SUN (as A POINT, of course); as the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the SPEED OF LIGHT; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. GREAT. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ALL of SPACE is NECESSARILY ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL (IN BALANCE), AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Great. The ability of thought to DESCRIBE OR RECONFIGURE sensory experience is ULTIMATELY dependent upon the extent to which THOUGHT IS SIMILAR TO sensory experience. (THOUGHTS ARE INVISIBLE.) Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is FULLY INVISIBLE AND black. The perpetual motion of WHAT IS THE EARTH is NOW explained. GREAT !!! The idea that THE PLANETS are "falling" in what is "curved space" in RELATION to what is THE SUN is PROVEN to be NONSENSE. So, the falling objects must be considered in RELATION to WHAT IS THEN THE ORBITING EARTH. GREAT !!!!!!!!!! By Frank DiMeglio

According to Nikola Tesla ether fills the entire universe.Higgs field may be another vocabulary for the ether.

Yep new particles back in forth in time possibly.?

At 2:18...I had to imagine Steve Irwin saying those words. "Crikey...there they aaaare...in their natural habitat. Look at those equations on 'er board...she's a beauty...eh?"

Welp... time to make my annual pilgrimage back to Alpinekat's LHC Rap.

Who were the 105 people who disliked this gem of science popularization?

Wow bigger machine! LHC! 🔥1:19 everyone

Hi presenter, do you have anti particle for yourself? What attraction force would be required?

I wonder if we will live to see what comes next after the standard model. I believe most physics agrees that the standard model is not the final answer, largely due to the exclusion of gravity among other things. I hope I'll live to see at least some hints of it.
