Dr. Lincoln I work at a General Mills cake and brownie mix factory right down the road from Fermilab on Kirk Rd. If you ever want a tour of my place you're welcome to. We don't have any particle detectors but we have a lab where we bake up samples. It's actually a really impressive plant. You can bring science ninja dude too I guess. 😁

It is indeed an amazing place! Thank you Dr. Don! SCIENCE IS EVERYTHING!

You say you can talk all day. Well, I am quite certain I am not just speaking for myself when I say I can watch and listen to you talk all day.

Dr. Lincoln you are a great teacher. Information given to non scientists will surely make us better citizens. I love your videos. Thanks for the great information about Fermi. It looks like the Adler has some catching up to do.

Great video. My college physics professor, Dr. Robert Purbrick, got his Ph.D. with Enrico Fermi during the Manhattan Project days. The grad students took turns sleeping near the nuclear reactor to monitor the D2O leak alarm. He was on duty one night and the alarm went off. He got up to get dressed and go outside in the cold winter and climb down to see what was going on. Then the alarm stopped. So, he went back to bed thinking it was a faulty alarm that could be looked at when he woke up. However, the alarm went off and on again and then again once more. After getting up and climbing down the ladder under the reactor, he found that a beetle was on its back wiggling its legs to try and turn over. Every now and then, two legs would hit both contacts of the sensor and the alarm would sound. The current would knock the beetle out, stopping the alarm. When the beetle came to, the whole process repeated itself. Sometimes, pure physics involves biology!

Great overview by a realy good presenter. Clear and concise. Thank you Dr L.

my grandmpa worked their for 40 years, sense they began building. I have visited and got very private tours from him. He also helped build that lazer thing, his position was a Senior Head Engineer. He also designed one of the buildings currently their still.

This is an amazing video!! Thank you so much for sharing insight on some of the projects & teams - Nova, g-2, DUNE, so many exciting things happening at Fermi. Thanks for taking the time to make this great video! 🙌🏻 I hope “Ask a a Scientist” is still going!! ❤

"Fermilab is everything" And Dr. Lincoln is such a great educator. Thanks a lot!

Hi, Dr. Lincoln. It was very nice to meet you and get such an easy to understand explanation of Neutrinos and Fermilab. I'm totally not scientifically gifted, so, thank you very much for making this so easy to understand. For some reason, lately, I've felt like this is incredibly important research for, yeah, the future of humanity, in an urgent way. Thank you.

I love Fermilab. CERN has and will continue to do wonderful things, but Fermilab has been at it for a while too. Thank you all for your contributions. I love these videos and your projects and research.

This is about to become my go to for the answers to the greatest questions I didn't know you were here guys glad to have found you .... I genuinely mean that this is a great opportunity for our students to behold I really wish I'd have been from a different era there's so many questions I have for you all brilliant first episode for me

I was a visitor there for one year. One of the best experience of my life. I contributed making a very high precision magnetic field measure machine.

Thanks for the presentation! It's very exciting to know about all these projects running in a SINGLE place! :)

Fascinating explanation of all the really cool stuff done at Fermilab! Many thanks!👏🏻

I really appreciate Dr. Lincoln's way of talking, very smooth and gets to the principles and points of core physics!

Absolutely necessary to keep the lead in research and innovations. Thank you for explaining. Hope our government, especially now, understand it's importance.

When I was a kid in 1979 me and my friends used to ride our bikes to Fermilab and just walk around in the building. We just randomly walked into labs and rooms. No security, no one kicking us out. It was bizarre now that I think about it. We would go to the top floor because the center of the building was open, and you can see to the bottom floor and we would throw paper airplanes into the lobby to see how far they would fly. I'm assuming security is a bit better now. In 1979 it didn't exist.

Thanks for posting this and all of the other Fermilab videos; they convince this layperson who never took math beyond trigonometry and graduate statistics that she understands a bit about quantum mechanics. The bit I understand has definitely convinced me, Dr Lincoln, that "physics is everything." Sign me "A Grateful Taxpayer."

The science Fermilab does is wonderful, but I'm very impressed by the art and architecture there. Wilson Hall is incredible.

I found this channel not too long ago and... Wow. Inspiring stuff. I liked the channel so much that after the DUNE and Twin Paradox videos and wanted to sub twice :) (although that's not a good idea XD). It goes deep into beautiful mathematical concepts (more so than average popular science) and leaves me understanding it all... Just the right difficulty for the average layperson to feel like a physicist :). I came in awe the most from the beauty, weirdness and counterintuitiveness of the quantum world, and was treated to extra enthralled by fact that you can think of mathematics and relate it physics, and vice versa, manifested in amazing projects where 100 years from now humans might talk about the great subatomic (and cosmic) science experiments by the world's leading physicists that allowed us the understanding (or even the exploration!) of the cosmos; perhaps as we do today for those of the past. Really appreciate your reaching out to us like this- may the forces be with you, and keep up the great work! PS. Sorry for the the long post XD

The music preceding the video is wonderful

Thank you Dr Lincoln. That was really interesting video.

This is an incredible video on an incredible topic

would love to know Dr. Don Lincoln someday, great guy, great physicist

Excellent overview video about exciting developments. @10:07 is always amazing.

I’m here after the PBS SpaceTime collab video! Grateful for that

It says the video was posted 2 years ago but it just reached me now and the content is still beyond my horizon of understanding.

Great Plug! Yes it is a great place. Thanks for the invite 😊

Great video, very informative & educational.

The ONE thing I need to know about Fermilab is Dr Lincoln works there :-) You are AWESOME buddy! Keep doing what you do! Also: I miss the old into music with the shredding guitar-like opening!

You need to have a local event called : Bosons, Beers, & Bison. Its a locally held event where everyone drinks and shares stories on science, environmentalism, and art

As a young student about 50 years ago - in fact it was the summer between high school and university - I got the itch to visit Fermilab and drove the two hours and some minutes to it. I parked in the lot and instead of registering as a visitor I just began strolling around sticking my nose into every nook and cranny especially into those nooks and crannies with signs like "DO NOT ENTER" or "ENTRY FORBIDDEN TO THE PUBLIC". I walked through workshops crammed with detectors in various degrees of assembly or disassembly and even saw one of the worlds largest bubble chambers. I new enough physics and mechanics to avoid areas of potential radiation or beams (not likely in a workshop area) and didn't stick my head into anything that looked remotely dangerous (overhead crane loads, etc). For someone who would study and later achieve a degree in mechanical engineering this was like Christmas and the best birthday imaginable. I wandered into the main building and through a few closed doors and ended up in the main collider control room. I walked in and peered over the shoulders of some scientists and grad students looking at a computer screen and discussing I know not what. After a few minutes of looking at the displays and controls, someone noticed me and asked me who the hell I was. I explained my presence and what I had been up to. My inquisitor just smiled and said not to touch anything. I imagine today I would have been arrested and questioned by Homeland Security, if I even would have the chance nowadays to get so far. Thanks Fermilab for making the visit of a young student into one of the most memorable days of his life. Kind regards, Mark ZumMallen PS: To Dr. Lincoln and all others responsible for video and informational content...keep up the good work.

VERY NICE AND AWESOME THANKS FOR SHARING

Thanks, Dr Lincoln. Hope to visit someday now that I am retired. BTW, loved your Great Courses offering on Audible

This guy is great

I've been in Chicago for almost a decade and still haven't visited. I will try to make it out there early next month! Hope to you there!

Now I can understand why your explanations made more sense than the most of related videos here on KZfaq. I definitely don’t have the qualifications to be someone there. But at least hire me as a ganitor please. Would you? So that I be with you guys while earning something to live.

BEST KZfaq CHANNEL EVER....

Was lucky to visit Fermilab.

Great video! I had no idea!!!

Great video, thanks

Proud to have an uncle that works for Fermilab.

Hello from Russia! great job!

can't wait for the SMP program starting tomorrow!

Gotta ask since the large collider is decommissioned is it still there & are there tours of it love to see that!

Best channel ever!

another great video! looking fwd to more...

I'll obviously visit this heaven. 😍

Great video, made a visit to Fermi Lab a few years ago for a workshop. Been in science for over thirty years and now thinking that more effort should be put into things that concern our planet now. Is all that knowledge and experience being used effectively? I noted a recent report about CERN which stated that less than 1% of data collected will be analysed. A definite case of Experiments for Experiments sake.

Hey Doc could you explain What is gravity? Is it a electric/magnetic force? A velocity induced force. I’d like an easy to understand explanation of how this force effects solids gasses etc. Thanks

Is higgs feild real or just imagined for concept building ? I wanna explore fermilab once and meet you Doctor don .

I thought such laboratory is in movies or TV shows (The Flash) only, but it really exist wow !!!

There is also a test beam program for prototyping detectors for other labs

hello, my name is jusuf & im indonesian. I really like the videos from this channel, I really like it. although my toefl score is below 400, but somehow i think I can understand every explanation in the video in this channel 😂😂. I admit that in my place there are still many who don't understand English and I want people (in Indonesia) to also understand the latest developments in science. for that in the future I plan to provide Indonesian subtitles to these videos. once again thank you fermilab for all knowledge information. this channel is truly extraordinary. By the way, I wrote this comment with the help of Google Translate 😂😂

Amazing

Amazing , I love to visit . I am from INDIA please advise the procedure

My dream job......

One question re the architecture. Is there meaning behind the unique shape of the main building? I'm guessing somehow connected to magnetism?

Nice overview Doc. Now if only I had paid more attention in Mr. Moseley 's physics class in 1965........

I'm subscribed. Very informative in layman's terms

I pass by fermi lab every day to school. I go to marmion academy. I’ve always wanted to visit it

Fermilab ROCKS!

Dr. Don is so worth being late to work over!

1:31 Apparently Fermilab also has the youngest particle physicist in the world working for them in the lower right of this photograph.

When I will grow up i will definitely want to work there.

someday i will visit both cern and fermilab

Good information and nicely presented. We need more outreach to the public to give them a better understanding of the work scientists are doing, and the importance of it. It seems clear that this is ultimately important for continuing funding.

So what effect does the permittivity of free space have on the spin characteristic of a Batavia buffalo?

Sir please tell about why do a moving electrical charge produce magnetic field and how

These guys discovered a new force in nature. Fucking legends

Please make a presentation on the physics of plasma and photon emission and absorption. What are low gravity and high gravity effects. From candle flame to solar masses.

Now I want to go work at Fermilab.

Bravo, one day I will Visit for sure!!

I want to visit Fermilab. I felt in love with this video. How can i visit it? I live in Brazil

When you get time please can you do a video explaining why the speed of light in a vacuum is 299,792,458 m / s and not some other number, (e.g why not 400,000 or 200,000 etc) or is that an unsolved mystery ? Thank you for an awesome channel.

Dr Lincoln, can you expand your phrase "...when we compare what we see and what we know is there, they don't match..."? I don't understand the part "what we know is there". How do we know?

Is stillness measured or observed in physics? Spin, wave, movent is - but what about still egzistence is there such observed?

I didn't know you guys made these videos, I really do enjoy them! Question now that the James Webb telescope is finding new things in space do you still hold the same theory on the big bang?

What if matter at the moment of the big bang naturally took up a centralized region an acted as a type of pip (as in nuclear warhead construction) and the anti matter which should have been created in equal quantities was forced to shell regions by some early stage mechanism? This would leave the possibility that all of the antimatter created at the big bang could now possibly exist external to the CMB?

The OG atom smasher!! I have always loved you guys.

very nice place to work

He has everything.

Dear Dr. Lincoln. Thank you for this interesting presentation about Fermi Lab. We never met together, as your background is much more specialized and impressive than mine. I am involved in physic too. Our little Academy is not recognized and it is finance by private interests. And, it is much smaller, but still very very interesting. We follow scientific research and experimental development rules. We are very serious, even if small! For example, I know for a fact that it is not possible for "matter" to go at the speed of light in our world. However, we found how to travel at speed equal or higher than the speed of light. The first part of the sentence seems in contradiction with the second part? But, it is not! To be honnest, we found this by luck and because I have the chance to be a little bit clever. So, both things combined gave huge results. Due to our little contribution, in my opinion, Classic and Quantum Physic will form only one in the mid term. There is just a little fix to do in both disciplines to make one discipline! Einstein did a good job to try to make sure that laws of Physics apply everywhere the same way but he failed to link with little things. Also, the "space-time" is problematic, as time does not really exist (clearly, Einstein did not understand that when he did the relativity It is obvious when we look at his 1905 declaration about the 2 clocks - once clock traveling and the other fix). Einstein has been lucky, time correlates with gravity! That is why the relativity passed all the tests up to now. I think we took over his good job and added a little bit to it.

This channel is just great ,why is it having so less subscribers.

Can you do Hilbert Space at some point? Thank you

As always, Dr Lincoln s lecture is fascinating and inspiring even for a retired old fart. After visiting the CERN, I'm inspired this time to have a tour of the Fermilab too,bas soon as the pandemic quiet down. And I will spend enough time to fully savor ultimate feast of science... on-site lecture, years old questions and better still a tour of the 4 miles accelerator. Thanks for the effort and reaching out to the public.

Particle physics is the best. Wouldn't mind riding my motorcycle on vacation for a visit.

I wonder how many Wednesdays and 1st Sundays it would take to satiate me....? I guess I’ll have to run my own experiment and analyze the data into some equation worth the trips 🤷🏻‍♀️❤️🙏

Man i wish i am able to work there someday

Dr. Lincoln: I watched the video about the speed of gravity. That was enlightening, but I have more questions. Your video demonstrated that gravity has a speed! I've always wondered about that. I asked myself: Is gravity a property of mass, or is it a property the universe (space). It was a logical thought that it might be a property of the universe and exists everywhere, therefore has no need of a velocity. All masses are 'floating' around in a gravitational field, but if it has a velocity, this upsets the all enveloping concept. Does this mean there is an escape velocity from the universe? If (a big if) a mass happened to achieve a speed greater than light, does this mean that it could escape from the universe because it would be traveling too fast for gravity to catch it and act on it? I presume that would be a dangerous speed. I believe that I have proof that light is mass-less. If it had any amount of mass, even a very small particle traveling around 186281 miles per second would ruin a mirror trying to reflect it. If it did not shatter, its surface would be pitted. It follows there would not be any solid surface showing on earth. It would be covered with fine dust particles. The steady stream of light from the sun would have ruined every surface on earth. Life could not exist unless it were subterranean. The next question: Is there a delay when light reflects off a surface, or is it instantaneous? Older methods of measuring light speed used rotating mirrors with the assumption that light reflection was instantaneous (and that is an unproven assumption). When scientists bounced a laser beam off a corner reflector box left on the moon and got a return, it was again was assumed that the reflection time was zero. How would one design an experiment to measure this? But this may be an impossible measurement because how does one measure zero. There's nothing to measure.

What are the future plans for the Tevatron? It seems such a shame to have all that nifty stuff just collecting dust.

Are there any week-long or consecutive day classes this summer on quantum mechanics / Fermilab related subjects for young students and adults? Oh, yeah, with parking for a small RV.

Thanks abt Fermi lab info Sir

MuchLove

Here are some colours of radioactive elemental decay that I found among Erwin's stuff: Radium [archetypal radioactive element] green; Actinium [it aids me to think A=B] blue; and Plutonium [the fatman bombs core] orange-red. Where is the rest of the Physics Slam I ask?

It Would be very interesting to work there .

Please take me there!!!

Is Fermilab hiring new employees? I'm from Brazil, what to do to work at Fermilab?

I think particle accelerators create more questions than answers and new particles.
