Five Sigma - Sixty Symbols
Posted by: sixtysymbols
Video duration: 825 seconds
With all this talk about "sigma" and certainty at the Large Hadron Collider, we attempt to explain what it's all about.

Physics Nobel Prize 2011 - Sixty Symbols
Posted by: sixtysymbols
Video duration: 495 seconds
Studying supernovae and the accelerating universe - and a bet over a bottle of whisky. It's our take on the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics, won by Saul Perlmutter, Brian P Schmidt and Adam G Riess.

After 8:26 shoudn't this? been the next question? - Assuming that nature usually take the easiest way, does this mean that sometimes (once every trilion~) going for the higgs is the easiest way?
By: Frazraf. on 21 May 12, 22:55:32
You're assuming relativity doesn't kick in until the speed of light. In reality even running on a moving train is bound to the special rules of relativity, but since the speeds are so low we can just add the speeds and get a result precise enough. 51% the speed of light is enough to make a difference however, and two bodies moving at 51% the speed of light only add up to about 80.9% the speed of light.?

Thanks? man :)
By: Jonassoe. on 21 May 12, 11:04:06
It's not really the relative speed that matters. What matters is the amount of kinetic energy you can pack into each particle. When each particle's speed approaches the speed of light, adding more energy to the beam no longer translates into an increase in speed, but? instead the mass of the particles increases in accordance with the energy-mass equivalence that we know from relativity. There is no theoretical bound to how much energy a particle can absorb this way.

Thanks, but I guess my follow-up question to that is: If the particles can't approach each other at more than the speed of light, what's the point of getting them to go 99.9% the speed of light? Couldn't they just have both particles go 51% the speed of light to get? the same effect?
By: Tossphate. on 20 May 12, 21:17:56
Your finger is just starting to block off the objective light that is focussing on one part of your eye, whilst? letting through light focussed on another part. makes it seem like its bending. Short sighted people use this trick when they squint to see better, It removes the unfocused light, leaving the object more in focus
By: Jonassoe. on 20 May 12, 19:31:03
Relativity makes sure that their? relative speed doesn't exceed the speed of light. If the particles could observe the event, they would each see the other particle approaching at less than the speed of light.

no the?y hit at 99% If to bodies? of = mass and speed collide. Its the same as one just hitting a wall.
By: viktorgoa. on 19 May 12, 15:43:40
no, as? they their velocities are vectors, so they point in the opposite direction. so they cancel out as they collide (and transferred into the subatomiv particles--> consevation of momentum).

i wish? i had your problems man
By: MrJarth. on 19 May 12, 12:25:31
why 27K? why not an even number? or a multiple of 10?
By: DamnedEyez. on 19 May 12, 01:49:38
...and for Physics today, we're? having a snowball fight with ourselves.

Isn't? there a golf course on top of the LHC facility?

The secret of overnatural superforces are microgalaxybubbles and cross-setting quantum particles linked with these multiversumbubbles. I am a german mathmatician and I developped a serious scientific theory about this topic. You can superforce people with? strings and cross-setting of microspactimebubbles. Particles are strings and strings are collaborated microspacetimebubbles. They are vibrating and this string vibration you can manipulate in order to get superforces

Just don't give? GLaDOS control of the neurotoxin generator...

holy shit 27km?! thats amazing... how do ppl? travel that underground?
By: Tmaker197812. on 16 May 12, 19:41:02
for example? particle may look like closed complex form of light vibration
By: Tmaker197812. on 16 May 12, 18:52:41
Don't you think that multitude of "elemental" particles discovered in last years implies that idea of particle being like a puzzle box with some other more "fundamental"? particles inside is wrong? May be some of them are just indivisible objects with list of properties assigned to them without any explanation which can't be found inside our reality?

ZOMBIERS are an invention of the international fraud mafia-they are epidemic and they poison the atmosphere. The international fraud mafia is using scientific organisation, in order to construct ZOMBIERS by relativity spacetime effect:called "Zombie-Hitchhiker-Effect"?explained in the series "the walking dead". ZOMBIERS and Vampires are a result of a corrupted? world. I am a scientific and I develop an anti-Zombi-Weapon

Ed is such a lad?

I thought you guys were gonna smoke weed on the? surface where the LHC is located
By: 13amazingworld31. on 13 May 12, 09:51:52
i think? they use use charging by friction to strip protons
By: Verband Filmhistorie. on 12 May 12, 08:28:23
The light is relative always 100% c. The relativity reduce the 200% to 100% from outside because the time is going down? and the space is getting smaller
