      @James Parker, This is a prediction about elementary particles: Mainly only the Down Quarks and Up Quarks make atoms. There are 4 more Quarks which decay into Down Quark and Up Quark in normal conditions. So the high energies inside earth can make two more types of atoms to make hell worlds and hell beings. According to Buddhism there are mainly two groups of hells called Hot hells and Cold hells too. I think definitely there is a very deep level of quantum physics for Ghosts, Gods, Brahma beings etc. According to Quantum Physics our Atoms have two main elementary particles called Up Quark and Down Quark. I think the Mass is a main thing which separate the worlds of living beings. The Mass of a Down Quark: 4.7+0.5; −0.3 MeV/c^2 (The bare mass of the down quark is not well determined, but probably lies between 4.5 and 5.3 MeV/c^2 or Lattice QCD value : 4.79±0.16 MeV/c^2. It Decays into: Stable or Up quark + Electron + Electron antineutrino.). If the standard Down Quark is just a combination of smaller down quarks, and if there is a Down Quark with a Mass around 0.467 MeV/c^2 (Around 10 times smaller than the standard Down Quark (4.7/10)), and if there is a Down Quark with a Mass around 0.093463 MeV/c^2 (Around 50 times smaller than the standard Down Quark (4.7/50)), then maybe those smaller Quarks can make a new type of Atoms which don't require to interact with our Atoms and our elementary particles, and then it can be very difficult for us to discover those smaller Quarks and other smaller elementary particles. The 27km long LHC could discover the 4.7 MeV/c^2 particle, and maybe a 100km long LHC can discover precisely a 0.467 MeV/c^2 particle, and maybe a 500km long LHC can discover a 0.093463 MeV/c^2 particle.
      My Mathematical Calculation Of The Prediction:
      The Standard Mass of a Down Quark: 4.7 MeV/C^2
      The Standard Mass of a Strange Quark: 96 MeV/C^2
      The Standard Mass of a Bottom Quark: 4180 MeV/C^2
      The mathematical beauty in the elementary particles in the standard model of particle physics:
      4180 MeV/C^2 / 96 MeV/C^2 = 43.54166666666667 or around 40
      96 MeV/C^2 / 4.7 MeV/C^2 = 20.42553191489362 or around 20
      Prediction 1:
      4.7 MeV/C^2 / A small Down Quark = around 10
      A small Down Quark = 4.7 MeV/C^2 / 10
      A small Down Quark = 0.47 MeV/C^2
      Prediction 2:
      (4.7 MeV/C^2 / 10) / A smaller Down Quark = around 5
      A smaller Down Quark = (0.47 MeV/C^2) / 5
      A smaller Down Quark = 0.094 MeV/C^2
      4180/96 = 43.54166666666667
      43.54166666666667 - 40 = 3.541666666666667
      3.541666666666667 / 40 = 0.0885416666666667 --- (A)
      96/4.7 = 20.42553191489362
      20.42553191489362 - 20 = 0.42553191489362
      0.42553191489362 / 20 = 0.02127659574468 --- (B)
      From (A) and (B)
      0.0885416666666667 / 0.021276595744681 = 4.1614583333333
      0.02127659574468 / 4.1614583333333 = 0.00511277394615
      1 - 0.00511277394615 = 0.99488722605385
      4.7 x (0.99488722605385) / 10 = 0.4675969962453 --- (C)
      4.7 / 10 = 0.47 --- (D)
      From (C) and (D)
      0.47 - 0.4675969962453 = 0.0024030037547
      0.0024030037547 / 4 = 0.00060075093867
      1 - 0.00060075093867335 = 0.9993992490613
      0.4675969962453 x (0.9993992490613) / 5 = 0.093463217
      The Mass of a smaller Down Quark: 0.093463217 MeV/c^2
      Finding a mathematical beauty to guess a precise value:
      The Mass of a Down Quark x Spead of light x Spead of light = X (The 'X' is a something like a very high energy.)
      0.093463217 x 299 792 458 x 299 792 458 = 8400055030015297 OR around 8400055030000000
      Maybe there is a smaller Down Quark with a Mass around 0.093463217 MeV/c^2 or 0.09346260470850395 MeV/c^2 for 8400000000000000).

    Neutrino physicist here! Loved this video, and will definitely share it and some quotes with my colleagues :D "When you're a neutrino, matter simply doesn't matter" is just great. Some notes: the strong force keeps the nuclei from falling apart; otherwise all those protons would just repel due to the electric force, since they are positively charged. Neutrinos do not change flavor through particle decay, but through the phenomenon of neutrino oscillation. Neutrino is an elementary particle, meaning, it is not composed of any other particles, so it has nothing to decay into. Neutrino oscillation happens because neutrino flavors are actually NOT physical particles, but manifestations of three physical neutrino states that overlap with each other in peculiar ways (remember, particles are waves, so there's kind of destructive and constructive interference between neutrino wavepackets, and flavors come out that way). And you are correct, the T2K result does not have a high significance, meaning, it's rather a hint than evidence or discovery. This experiment was not built to study this phenomenon as its main goal, so it's suboptimal, and that's why we build specific experiments targeting one or other mystery of neutrino. Thanks again for the great take!

      Pardon me for asking a dumb layman's question, but i cant resist since you are a real nuclear physicist. Do we know the orientation of nucleons in any given atom? Like, there are protons and nuetrons in the nucleus of most atoms. Right? But nuetrons decay into a proton and an electron. Right? So we can imagine only protons and electrons in the nucleus. it seems then that if they we positioned just right - (ie) such that the static electric fields were perfectly balanced with the negative of the electrons balancing the positive of the protons - then you wouldnt need a Strong force at all. The balanced electric static forces would keep the protons fron flying out of the neucleus. See what I'm saying? I'm sure it's a terribly naive question but ive been wondering this for years. Thx.

      ​@@stevenmohr9863 Hey there! Very cool question about neutrons all decaying into protons and having a nucleus with only protons. It somehow makes sense right?? That doesn't happen, because a nucleus undergoing a decay is different from a single free neutron decaying. For example, free neutrons are unstable particles, meaning they don't exist forever even if nothing is happening to them. They decay in around 15 minutes if they just basically sit there or fly around unbothered. However, when a neutron is in an atom, it's not just the one neutron, now it's a whole complex system with the many particles together, one wavefunction with all the particles in it, if you will. The conditions of this neutron, the field it experiences, are different. Actually usually neutrons inside atoms are completely stable, they never decay! Otherwise every atom would be radioactive which they are thankfully not. Any radioactive atom has neutrons decaying, but not indefinitely, eventually we reach a stable atom and stay there. Because, imagine that we could somehow artificially make an atom with just protons and electrons, why wouldn't that work then, if they were positioned just right with magical precision? Well, that's possible only in one case, hydrogen with just one proton and one electron. In all other cases if you have electrons and only protons (balancing with electron charge), the protons would just repel each other and the atom would disintegrate and not live even for a second. So the neutrons are there to just glue in the protons. It can't work that you wouldn't need neutrons at all and electrons would keep the protons smashed together, they would repel. Guess it's like electrons move too much, if you could just fix them in in perfect positions to create a perfect counter-balance to protons repelling - maybe? - but an electron doesn't really have a "position" that way due to its highly quantum nature. Can't really position it right. It's not a naive question, it takes years for a physicist to figure out these things, and I'm not even confident about everything I wrote here, since I'm not very familiar with strong force!

      @@JoshVandever Neutrino oscillation is indeed literally particles in superposition! What we humans observe as "neutrinos" - and we observe three kinds, electron neutrino, muon neutrino, and tau neutrino - are not actually particles. They are manifestations of three actual physical particles that travel in space that physicists call simply "neutrino 1", "neutrino 2", and "neutrino 3". Those travel in space as a sort of wavepacket, and depending on the kind of interference of the wavefunctions that travel (imagine sine waves with different phases having constructive and destructive interference), we observe what we see as electron, muon, or tau neutrino. Once you observed an electron neutrino, you know that it's a superposition of neutrino 1, 2 and 3. While they are travelling, it's a superposition of electron, muon, and tau neutrino, since you won't know which one it is until you observe them. So the concept of flavor (that's the name for whether it's electron, muon, or tau) just doesn't exist for the travelling neutrinos; and the concept of which neutrino particle it is (1,2 or 3 we call mass states of neutrino, physical states) doesn't exist when it's observed. Think of it as a spinning die that's flying towards a table. Which number is it showing? The concept of "showing" only exists when the die lands. Or in other words you could say, the die is in a superposition of all possible numbers. The die spins, neutrinos oscillate - because of superposition! 100% correct on your part.

      @@Ice.muffin Some people are always vigorously opposed to technical advancements. The only difference between some sh*t-tier idea from a mental case and a genius with a breakthrough is how many people see it and support it in the beginning, that is until someone sees it that actually knows what they're talking about and can grasp the concept. It can be passed off 100 times for 15+ years, but finally only takes one for the right person to hear it in an attractive way. These people we call arrogant idiots are found frequently on reddit, and are commonly understood to have migrated in from other lower intelligence social networks.
      Since those terms are not commonly associated with a technology yet, here are their summaries:
      SiC stands for Silicon Carbide, a ceramic crystal made from silicon and carbon in a roughly 3.5:1 ratio. It can be doped with positive and negative dopants to form a semiconductor. It is more tolerant than standard silicon to heat and radiation, and is used in making 98-99% efficient power inverters and other electronics, also at an increased energy density and with a significantly reduced gate leakage current.
      Graphistors or GFETs are transistor-like circuit components made partly from graphene. A developing concept that can offer much higher switching speeds, higher temperatures, more durability, lower leakage, smaller size, the whole deal. It is further out in theory, as creating the graphene channel, placing, and bonding it is difficult, and may never be widely used versus other competing semiconductor designs (graphenea.com).
      Optronics (generally read as 'optical electronics'; and unfortunately the name of an LED company) is the nickname for any time-of-flight computations done with the various features of wave-like light and photons, either in optical glass, in a hollow fiber, or in any other waveguide. It sounds better than "photonic computing" or "interference patterns for computing second-order derivatives". If modern integrated circuits take nanoseconds, microseconds, and milliseconds to compute and shuttle around data, optronics has the potential to do far more complex operations in just picoseconds to nanoseconds. A lot of potential, including being able to send a message to the other side of the globe in less than 70 milliseconds flat (240+ milliseconds with modern backbone tech).
      Afterword: I guess I didn't get the honor of coining the term hollow core fiber optics, but it did blow up in popularity after I took the position of the Nth person to look at the concept and see promise (most people didn't believe light could go 50% faster than through existing pulled-strand fiber optic cables, I had to point out the refractive index and they finally shut the hell up). phys.org/search/page4.html?search=hollow+core+fiber+optics

      I'd guess there are plenty of molecules which could theoretically exist, but be too unstable to be of practical value, like azizoazide azide. If my information is correct, this molecule is made of nothing but nitrogen atoms but is so unstable that it will randomly and suddenly decay explosively for no detectable reason (although a good working theory would be that a passing neutrino managed to interact with it instead of just passing through it without touching it).

      If an astronomically catastrofically awesome event happens in the universe that makes enough neutrinos to "trigger" all of them, it will NOT happen at the same time [the "sphere of ilumination" of the neutrinos will be a practically perfect "flat wall" by the time it reaches Earth, triggering events at different times as it moves almost at the speed of light through it].
      -> While they are NOT built precisely for this, they can still help traditional observatories (and the new gravitational waves ones) to both confirm the general direction of the "source" and the time of arrival of the event.

    Fun Fact: The 1960's "Supermarionation" TV show "FIreball XL5" featured a "Neutroni Radio" which supposedly used Neutrinos instead of electromagnetic waves as its transmission medium. Supposedly, it communicated instantly (maybe they mixed up neutrinos with tachyons). Funnily enough, someone on Gerry Anderson's team of writers seemingly knew enough science to know that if XL5 flew too close to the sun, the neutroni radio would have its signal swamped by the neutrinos emitted by the sun, because there was a (written for a book, not part of the TV series) story where that happened as a background event to the actual story.

      UA-cam has a feature where before you even publish a video, you can give alternate titles and thumbnails. Then, if a video is under-performing compared to the average video on the channel, you can set it to change the title and/or thumbnail to see if it helps change the performance. This can all occur pretty soon after a video goes live, especially on big channels where it will get a not insignificant amount of views pretty quickly.

    Photons always arrive in quanta and neutrinos always start out and decay from quanta. Makes me wonder if there's a correlation between the two. Also neutrinos are a good candidate for dark matter because they behave the same. And if neutrinos have mass they should loosely clump together and form fast moving filaments.

Closing in the 1960s, it was gifted to the state to be preserved. They started doing neutrino lab tests there in the 90s/00s i believe. The University of Minnesota owned it until a couple years ago when a Japanese company bought it; i wonder if this is the same company in the video? Definitely worth a Google.
    Ps. You can visit the mine today and actually go a half mile underground to tour the lab and/or the old mine shafts.

    This is a prediction about elementary particles: Mainly only the Down Quarks and Up Quarks make atoms. There are 4 more Quarks which decay into Down Quark and Up Quark in normal conditions. So the high energies inside earth can make two more types of atoms to make hell worlds and hell beings. According to Buddhism there are mainly two groups of hells called Hot hells and Cold hells too. I think definitely there is a very deep level of quantum physics for Ghosts, Gods, Brahma beings etc. According to Quantum Physics our Atoms have two main elementary particles called Up Quark and Down Quark. I think the Mass is a main thing which separate the worlds of living beings. The Mass of a Down Quark: 4.7+0.5; −0.3 MeV/c^2 (The bare mass of the down quark is not well determined, but probably lies between 4.5 and 5.3 MeV/c^2 or Lattice QCD value : 4.79±0.16 MeV/c^2. It Decays into: Stable or Up quark + Electron + Electron antineutrino.). If the standard Down Quark is just a combination of smaller down quarks, and if there is a Down Quark with a Mass around 0.467 MeV/c^2 (Around 10 times smaller than the standard Down Quark (4.7/10)), and if there is a Down Quark with a Mass around 0.093463 MeV/c^2 (Around 50 times smaller than the standard Down Quark (4.7/50)), then maybe those smaller Quarks can make a new type of Atoms which don't require to interact with our Atoms and our elementary particles, and then it can be very difficult for us to discover those smaller Quarks and other smaller elementary particles. The 27km long LHC could discover the 4.7 MeV/c^2 particle, and maybe a 100km long LHC can discover precisely a 0.467 MeV/c^2 particle, and maybe a 500km long LHC can discover a 0.093463 MeV/c^2 particle.
    My Mathematical Calculation Of The Prediction:
    The Standard Mass of a Down Quark: 4.7 MeV/C^2
    The Standard Mass of a Strange Quark: 96 MeV/C^2
    The Standard Mass of a Bottom Quark: 4180 MeV/C^2
    The mathematical beauty in the elementary particles in the standard model of particle physics:
    4180 MeV/C^2 / 96 MeV/C^2 = 43.54166666666667 or around 40
    96 MeV/C^2 / 4.7 MeV/C^2 = 20.42553191489362 or around 20
    Prediction 1:
    4.7 MeV/C^2 / A small Down Quark = around 10
    A small Down Quark = 4.7 MeV/C^2 / 10
    A small Down Quark = 0.47 MeV/C^2
    Prediction 2:
    (4.7 MeV/C^2 / 10) / A smaller Down Quark = around 5
    A smaller Down Quark = (0.47 MeV/C^2) / 5
    A smaller Down Quark = 0.094 MeV/C^2
    4180/96 = 43.54166666666667
    43.54166666666667 - 40 = 3.541666666666667
    3.541666666666667 / 40 = 0.0885416666666667 --- (A)
    96/4.7 = 20.42553191489362
    20.42553191489362 - 20 = 0.42553191489362
    0.42553191489362 / 20 = 0.02127659574468 --- (B)
    From (A) and (B)
    0.0885416666666667 / 0.021276595744681 = 4.1614583333333
    0.02127659574468 / 4.1614583333333 = 0.00511277394615
    1 - 0.00511277394615 = 0.99488722605385
    4.7 x (0.99488722605385) / 10 = 0.4675969962453 --- (C)
    4.7 / 10 = 0.47 --- (D)
    From (C) and (D)
    0.47 - 0.4675969962453 = 0.0024030037547
    0.0024030037547 / 4 = 0.00060075093867
    1 - 0.00060075093867335 = 0.9993992490613
    0.4675969962453 x (0.9993992490613) / 5 = 0.093463217
    The Mass of a smaller Down Quark: 0.093463217 MeV/c^2
    Finding a mathematical beauty to guess a precise value:
    The Mass of a Down Quark x Spead of light x Spead of light = X (The 'X' is a something like a very high energy.)
    0.093463217 x 299 792 458 x 299 792 458 = 8400055030015297 OR around 8400055030000000
    Maybe there is a smaller Down Quark with a Mass around 0.093463217 MeV/c^2 or 0.09346260470850395 MeV/c^2 for 8400000000000000).

      @Uncle Bruce, ​ I think the Universe made 16 elementary particles with the nature of matter and another 16 elementary particles against the it with the nature of antimatter which caused to annihilate each other, but when the dimensional formations used dimensions to form particles, mass, charge and spin between shared dimensions with dimensional gaps it caused a tiny unbalance in the Ratio of the Matter quarks and Antimatter quarks in the early Universe (3000000001:3000000000) which caused to survive a very small portion of elementary particles (1 from 3000000001).
      The early universe was a thing with nothings, so the direction of a nothing (0) thing = +0-0
      What if +0-0 can make +0.0-0.0 and +1-1? Then it should be the start of something (distance and dimensions) of the Universe.
      Finding The Dimensions In The Universe Mathematically:
      According to this mathematical formula: (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2
      The duality of 6 directions and the 6 distances of the first start of the Universe: Matter + Antimatter = (+0-0)^6 + (-0+0)^6
      (+0-0)^6
      = (+1-(-1))^3 x (+0.0-0.0)^3

    There is not such thing as 'pure energy' as long as there is 'non-pure energy'. Every energy has a form, so is 'pure' formless? Don't you read too much without getting deep enough? Man, I liked your channel, but first: Czechia is 'eastern Europe', and now 'pure energy' sprung out... and the smirky half-witted chestnutlike comparisons... a smoke screen for riding waves without diving in. I have become and am a troll for you. One sub down. Now. Bye. Be your own Einstein.

      Doesn't matter: solar neutrino flux is essentially the same day and night (ie, whether or not you have earth between you and the sun or not).

    Something about antimatter baffles me:
    Who says that most of the universe is matter rather than antimatter? If antimatter behaves (mostly) like matter, how do we know about any distant star whether it's made from matter or antimatter? All we have is light. Fusion of hydrogen into helium, for example, will emit the same radiation as fusion of anti-hydrogen into anti-helium, I expect. Absorption of certain wavelengths of light should be the same with atoms as with anti-atoms. And so on...
    So we have no way of telling if a star other than Sun is made front antimatter. An evidence against antimatter in our galaxy is the fact that we haven't received a rock from space made from antimatter, which would've caused a spectacular explosion. What about other galaxies? Or if that's too close, what about other clusters of galaxies? As there's no proper exchange between them, matter and antimatter clusters could easily coexist.
    Big bang - in the super-dense soup of creating/annihilating of various particles I guess there were areas with more nucleons and areas with more anti-nucleons. As the universe expanded and cooled down, the former formed areas of universe mainly made from matter and the latter those mainly made from antimatter.
    So please, Thoughty2, shed some light to why it wouldn't be so. Maybe the background microwave radiation wouldn't be as it is... Maybe ...?
