This is too easy for high school, I suggest looking at the formulation of the Lagrangian to obtain the Euler-Lagrange equations or imposing the Lorenz gauge condition to reduce the equations to form the QED classical Maxwell equations. This exercise also includes the D'Alembertian operator and the Dirac equation which will undoubtedly be of interest and of use to students nowadays.

@Science Revolution You should know Quantum is called Quantum because particles at Quantum level don't behave as Classical mechanics. Imagine having to exist at two places at the same time, it defies our common sense and intuition beacuse we know we haven't experienced or see that phenomena with our naked eyes. Everything at quantum level doesn't behave as we expected them to be and the only way for us to understand them is by using mathematical equations and stuffs. That is why theoritical physics exist, just because they are theoritical doesn't mean they are not real.

@Science Revolution You sound like a fool. You decided it was bullshit just because you don't understand it and that is so incredibly ignorant. For the record, quantum field theory has worked just fine in spite of our lack of complete understanding of why tiny things behave the way the do. Without knowledge of quantum field theory, we wouldn't have the computers and/or phones that we are using to post these comments. KZfaq wouldn't have the servers and computers needed to run and maintain this website. We wouldn't even have the internet were it not for our understanding of quantum mechanics. Not only that, if quantum mechanics was bullshit, then none of the science that particle physicists, astrophysicists, or nuclear physicists do would be happening. Oh and also, we wouldn't have the understanding of chemistry that we have without quantum mechanics either. Our current technology would be non-existent if we hadn't figured out what we've already figured out about quantum mechanics. Our unanswered questions about quantum mechanics don't really matter quite that much when what we do understand has allowed us to have what we have now.

As a layman with years of fascination with physics and especially quantum physics, can you verify that I've grasped the content in this video? Essentially, electrons do not repel each other due to a 'force' as such. Rather, due to superposition, every possible outcome of an interaction between the two electrons exists simultaneously, and the result is the most probable scenario due to amplitude?

@@zamilhoquesiddique3249 not OP but honestly it would be hard to point them out concretely, one by one. I think of you keep going and watch and read more of more material you'll slowly be able to connect together everything and build a more comprehensive understand and a broader picture of everything. At least that's what I did personally. After an year or so I thought I understood most things now but in reality I'd just become more familiar with them and my understanding was not even half of all there was to understand. So that's also important to keep in mind, that if you're a beginner no matter how you feel in the moment, your understanding almost certainly, is wholly incomplete. Why I stress this, is because two of my friends who previously were interested in this kind of physics left after just a surface level understanding thinking they've understood most stuff (which probably represents the majority of people)

You illustrate this so well and bring up things that I haven't heard elsewhere, even though I've looked. Things like the nature of the actual fields, how all Feynman diagrams and their amplitudes are added up to come up with a final probability of the movement of electrons, anti-particles seeming to move backwards in time, and more...these were so eye-opening to me!

Your videos have my favorite visual representations for these ideas! I dream of a full-team collaboration between yall and PBS space-time, on any mechanism in the standard model or relativity! As many know, the "color" analogies used for complex phase-space in QED, as well as for gluon colors in QCD is a compelling narrative to delineate linear amplitudes from modal phases for many charge concepts in physics. But, would you consider making a side-by-side animation where the rainbow diagrams (going from 2:40 to 3:53) are juxtaposed with a grayscale diagram, where the "color" of the rainbow is replaced by a spectrum of thick-to-thin textures? I imagine a visual aid that depicts a low-energy red color expressed by a thinly-textured space, transitioning to a thickly-textured space for high-energy blue colors - flowing through "R-G-B" space for electrons, and "R-B-G" space for positrons would be like flowing through thin-to-thick or thick-to-thin grayscale textures respectively. I think this would both help people with standard color vision transcend the color analogy by seeing an alternate but equal expression for quantum phase, as well as expand the accessibility of the color analogy for people with alternate color perception.

Although different than the topic of this video, particles (say, an excited electron in an atom) can be triggered to emit a photon (i.e. fluorescence via spontanous emission), initiated by a perturbation from the fluctuating vacuum. Granted, this is a real photon and not a virtual one. And QED deals directly with the vacuum fields, so it still leaves the question of what triggers the virtual interaction amongst the fields..I suppose it really comes down to a probability game as the above commenter noted.

As already stated it's based on probability which increases based on the energy state the electron is in if it's in a high energy state it has a higher probability of emitting a photon which will cause it to fall to a lower energy state due to conservation. If it's in a low energy state it has a lower probability etc.

Minor criticism here. At 9:16 you say that virtual particles although intermediary are essential to consider them. This isn’t true. Non perturbation QFT (Also known as lattice QFT) does not use virtual particles at all to do calculations. Otherwise, great vid!
@gusmichalski6136
@gusmichalski6136 3 жыл бұрын
But lattice doesn't work with weakly coupled abelian theories like QED, right? Or at least it gives inconsistent results, both numerical and theoretical for small coupling constants if I recall correctly (I could be wrong, it's been some years since I read this subject). That's why it is used mainly to approach QCD and other strong coupled non abelian theories. Also if you want an analytical results you need to consider the full expansion to a given order so you would need all virtual particles.

@ScienceClic Wow, thank you for explaining something so complex, so well, that it could be quickly and visually understood. I have just a BSME, and mechanical things seem intuitive,,, atomic/electrical/optic& quantum things previously seemed less intuitive, so this is great, with excellent, logical animations! I ask also: does the fact the Ben Franklin and others got the electron flow direction backwards and we keep that mistake currently(no pun intended), i.e. are forced to call charge negative (e-), [cause I know this complicates my understanding of diodes]... What I'm getting at is; that "negative", as when used for numberlines has the idea of debt or lack of something, whereas charge positive and charge negative are just two different real things, and electron flow(vs conventional flow) models for circuits seems to help the intuition to match the actual happenings,,, just curious if there is an alternate/better way to think about "charge"

Is it possible that electrons would actually attract for a brief period of time, since there is a small chance of it happening?
@anthonyguerrera191
@anthonyguerrera191 3 жыл бұрын
Yes as long as the momentum and total charge is conserved. For example, If u have two electrons initially moving eastward, and one emits a photon to the northeast and the other to the southeast, then they can indeed attract each other

attraction or repulsion is not a concept in ee-->ee scattering. If you label the electrons e_L and e_R (for left and right) and they scatter to e_U and e_D (for up and down), and you draw an attraction like trajectory, there is a problem: irl, the e_U is going to be a mixture of e_L and e_R, and likewise for e_D, and the trajectory with the final state electrons swapped is going to look like repulsion. Both occur in super-position. (it's called t-channel and u-channel, and it was not discussed in this video).
