What happens when matter can’t get any denser yet somehow does? The answer - it becomes “strange.” Strange Stars may be the most massive stellar remnant that is just shy of forming a black hole. And they could be even cooler than black holes.

Neutron stars are made of a substance known as Neutronium. It was thought that this was the densest form of matter possible but some theoretical physicists believe that at the core of some neutron stars the Neutronium breaks down even further, into quark matter. It may even evolve one step further into “strange matter", the densest and most stable substance in the universe.

I'd love to see a video on Quasars and insanely large super-massive black holes colliding. These sort of primordial galaxy-sized events have always fascinated me. Quasars really start to blur the line between a swarm of celestial bodies like a galaxy and a singular celestial body like a star, and are of such a massive scale. The "quasar cluster" that if I am correct still holds the position as the largest structure we've ever discovered in the universe would be an interesting subject as well. As well as how it deified basically all our assumptions of the limits of how big things could be.

Oh, the neutrons are moving. Those extreme densities don't prohibit movement. There's thermal motion (although this does't quite work the same way in degenerate matter), and probably all sorts of weird superfluid motion going on also, like microscopic vortices that stretch from the crust to the core.

Special EDy Just find a way to break the lightspeed barrier. Then you should see everything else go backwards. All you need is a way to find a little more than infinite energy and a way to survive collapsing into a black hole, but those are minor obstacles. Orrrrr maybeee dark matter isn't just the opposite of matter but matter looping back on itself, you could perhaps find a way to do that. But for that you would have to end the existence of your physical body completely and hope that your consciousness will loop along just to see if that idea is real, which it probably isn't. For that there would have to be exactly the same amounts of matter and antimatter and antimatter should follow the exact path of matter but backwards in time. But maybe there are some possibilities similar to that idea that just don't require antimatter. Other ways of time travel are even more dangerous. As long as Hawking is alive anyway.

Setekh I think you could escape the event horizon. You just need to be in the right place as two massive black holes spiral into collision. Fall into the first black hole on suborbital path in the opposite direction the two black holes are spiraling each other. If you subsequently hit the Legrange point between the two black holes at precisely the right place and vector, you escape. If the black holes are massive enough, the tidal forces won't rip you apart. What happens in this corridor is beyond my imagination, you are theoretically inside of two event horizons, but the net gravitational pull is zero at some point. I don't know if that means spacetime will be undistorted at this point, or some other crazy effects. I think that this is the epicenter of the gravitational waves that we are trying to detect though.
@SpecialEDy
@SpecialEDy 7 жыл бұрын
As two black holes approach each other, the event horizons would become elongated along a line intersecting both singularities, but initially they wouldn't merge. As they got closer, they would begin to expand on the axis perpendicular to the line intersecting them, but I think there should be a point where they are bowl shaped. You could load Dr Hawking into a space ship and send him on a trajectory where he passes through this extending wall, which is trying to close around the bubble of the Legrange point in the center. Maybe someday I will have sufficient knowledge of the physics equations needed to test this, and the skills to plug it into a simulation.

I've heard before how pulsars can be spinning thousands of times per second. It made me think of how light (cosmic speed limit) can circle the Earth about 7 1/2 times per second. So these pulsars would have to be under so many kilometers across to not be spinning faster than light. And of course, I've also heard about these pulsars being the size of a city, which makes them extremely dense. Just thought it was a neat reminder of how awesome science is, and how using the scientific method can lead to such great discoveries and insight ^_^

Hi, Matt! First of all, congrats on your great channel. I really enjoy watching it and sharing what I learn with my kids. I've noticed that many things in Quantum physics (on this episode as well) depend on the so called "Pauli Exclusion Principle". Many of these "principles," when mentioned, look like some sort of "tips delivered by aliens to ancient civilizations" :-) Would you please elaborate on how this particular principle was discovered/invented/whatever? Many thanks in advance, and keep up the good work!

It's actually a mathematical consequence of the probabilistic nature of Quantum Mechanics. Basically, if you write out the Dirac Equation describing 2 fermions, if they are both in _exactly_ the same physical state, two terms in the equation cancel each other and multiply the rest of the equation by zero, which means that the probability of this state existing is zero. That's why it's "forbidden": it just has zero probability of occurring. Something this video omits to mention is that isolated neutrons are not stable. They decay into protons and electrons and [anti]neutrinos. However, if you force electrons and protons together with enough energy, they're faced with either (1) trying to do the impossible [that zero-probabilty result that we call the Pauli Exclusion Principle]; or (2) reversing a natural reaction and creating a neutron, one that's held together by the gravitational pressure that overcame the Pauli Exclusion Principle. In short, the lifetime of the neutron appears to depend on the pressure it's under. [Edit: Neutrons are also stable when bound to protons in a nucleus. So the lifetime of the neutron also depends on what's around it, as well as the pressure it's under.] That raises the question: what's the dependence, as a function of pressure, of the lifetimes of other 3-quark hadrons … not only the ones involving a strange-quark, but those involving all 6 quark flavors? Perhaps those hadrons stabilize at ever increasing pressures, leading to a whole chain of different Exotic Matter stars. Some of those stars may be so dense, that they have an event-horizon.

The Strange Stars, you said that they are made of the most stable matter in the Universe and would hence never decay and stay forever. Being absolutely stable, doesn't it mean that it's Entropy is the Highest Possible? I have two questions, Q1. Can't we say that these stars are actually frozen in time, since the Entropy is highest, no more processes would happen? Q2. Would a Type-3 Civilization ever be able to reproduce the situations of a Strange Star? Can we do it now if we make some advances in Physics?
@azureorbit
@azureorbit 7 жыл бұрын
1. Not highest possible entropy if the universe is your system. Very high if your system is the strange star. What is interesting is that, at this state, things are happening (those quarks and gluons interacting), but its hard to detect change. So not necessarily frozen in time. 2. Probably. No, we can't create quark liquids at low temperatures (relatively low).
@saraeva
@saraeva 7 жыл бұрын
A strange star isn't the most stable matter in the universe. A black hole is. Throw enough matter into a strange star and eventually it'll turn into a black hole. They are the true objects in the universe in which time has frozen that isn't going at the speed of light. Q1 - They aren't frozen in time. A strange star may have a very, very high state of entropy; but, it's not at it's absolute highest, as state above. Q2 - A Type-3 Civilization could reproduce a strange star; but, why would they? After all, a strange star is degenerate matter in a compressed state. Other than scientific curiosity, I see no reason to pour resources into making one.

_"Hyper-Dense Alloys could be developed which can be used as Shields for SpaceCrafts and non-Nuclear but extremely powerful Kinetic Impact weapons"_ Subtract the ultra extreme gravity and what is strange matter? A highly compact ultra efficient nuclear bomb. The matter would fling out in all directions at ultra high-speed while the strange quarks decay into up and down quarks (forming neutrons and releasing huge amounts of energy). After the strange quarks decay the neutrons would rapidly decay forming high-speed charged particles. Strange matter doesn't exist unless its in excessively extreme gravity.

Interesting theory, but the characteristics between neutron stars and black holes are quite different, and if black holes were really quark stars, then there should only be minor differences between them. For example, the escape velocity of a neutron star is between a third to half the speed of light. Since a quark star is slightly more dense than a neutron star, then its escape velocity should be more than half the speed of light, but not faster than light, as is the case with black holes. Also, neutron stars behave as pulsars. We get no pulsar detection from black holes. A quark star should also have pulsar-like effects.
@Tore_Lund
@Tore_Lund 4 жыл бұрын
@@jeffo9396 Still, there is the possibility that there s exists even further degenerated matter inside Black holes. That we don't observe magnetic fields, is because of the event horizon. It should be possible on paper to calculate the density and diameter of such a star to have an escape velocity larger than c. Then figure out at what energy level conditions that would exist, and what period after the Big bang that resembles? The notion that once an event horizon forms all matter becomes a singularity, is just a remnant of GR, there is no reason to think this happens as the same density. What about a Gluon star or even a String star, which quite fittingly could be called a yarnball??

​@@Tore_Lund That's certainly possible. I was only making the argument that black holes and quark stars are different cosmic objects.

Abe Dillon I know a bit about the mechanics yes. A lot of details are poorly known, even by experts since neutron stars are the result of fiendishly extreme conditions and involve forms of matter that we have trouble simulating even in supercomputers to the point that the LHC has actually given us insight into neutron stars as recently as this year. The crust is not pure iron. Iron predominates, along with nickel because it is part of the collapsing core that becomes the star. Lighter elements are surprisingly stable, even hydrogen but tend to have been blown away by the supernova or 'boiled off' the hot young pulsar. Heavier elements tend to likewise form in the neutron flux emitted by the core and little make their way back. The iron is also not the usual metal we know. Its nuclei are pushed as close together as possible, a sort of very dense plasma, and much of the iron's 'electron sea' in fact spreads out into the star. (The exclusion principle means that the electrons can be lower energy if they move about the whole volume of the star rather than packing tightly with the iron. The iron nuclei however are constrained by their size, they cannot move between neutrons. Interestingly free protons (Hydrogen) can do this also and fill the star at allow enough density to avoid fusing with electrons.) It's quite remarkable just how much iron is made by the star. Looking at universal abundances ( periodictable.com/Properties/A/UniverseAbundance.html ) you can see iron is sixth and most heavy elements are mere traces. Iron even outweighs its precursors like silicon, magnesium and even nitrogen.

It's also worth noting the atoms are so densely packed and connected, it's "harder" then a diamond (By a loooot) that combined with the small size of the star is what lets it rotate at a significant fraction of the speed of light without flying apart. We've found some that spin at nearly half the speed of light. Sounds like a lot! But compared to the jet streams we've clocked spitting out of quasars at around 95% the speed of light, it's certainly not the fastest or craziest thing in the universe.
