The yt algorithm is really powerful, I remember you had guided me (with an indian students group) through the anti matter factory this january, congrats on your yt channel
I hate when you search CERN in UA-cam, dozens of conspiracy videos about it pop up before you get anywhere near something like this. Edit: This thread is funny
Hey! I work in high energy physics theory, crazy to think that some of the things we’re working on can be worked up in these places. Hoping to see more!
The only people that watch this, actually knows what CERN is bunch of nerds we are. I loved the video, and must be nice….also jealous.. can’t wait to see that place
Thank you so much, I am very passionate about bringing science to the larger public! These big questions of the Universe are so important to all of us.
Hiii, can you please tell your story on how you get to have PhD at CERN? And maybe your academic background a bit? Thank you so much love your videos hope you have a great day✨️✨️
Hi! My background is a Bachelor's degree in physics at the Uppsala University, then a Master's degree there in particle and nuclear physics with the last year spent as a technical student at CERN. I realized throughout my university research internships in astrophysics, particle physics and then accelerator physics that I really wanted to design the accelerators. I think these internships and their connections to researchers are what really helped me getting into CERN. As I mentioned in another comment, there are many ways into CERN, either through a research group at your university or through some of the student programmes at CERN: careers.smartrecruiters.com/CERN/students Recruiters and supervisors look not only for grades but also project experience, programming skills and passion for the topic. If I were you, take some small uni research projects to start exploring what you like - this makes you stand out. If they notice that you have already read up on the topic, it says a lot about your drive! I would like to make a video soon on tips on getting into CERN for students :)
Is very interesting video. You also sound like a very good spokesperson to get people to Improve themselves by taking classes and learning more about the subjects you talked about. Too scientific for me. Well done I wish you the best..
I have a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and 1+ years of experience as a Software engineer. I've always had an interest in physics and I keep studying and exploring it in parallel, but sadly I got nothing to show for my physics knowledge. Can you provide some helpful suggestions on how I can transition my career into something like computational physics (basically physics (because of my interest) and computer science (because of my degree and experience) is what I mean).
Hello! As I understood it, CERN hires a lot of software engineers and computer scientists to maintain services across CERN. Many of my colleagues have no background in physics at all - once again, I think project experience matters a lot even if it is far away from particle physics. If you have the chance to showcase these skills and project experiences, chances are good that many experiments and departments are interested in you! Have a look here, several posts usually relate to IT: careers.smartrecruiters.com/CERN/staff
Scientists discovered around 100 years theoratical principals for e.g. transitors, which transform the world in to many ways. What are current research topics and what will we have in 100 years?
Very exciting question - one that I am wondering a lot about myself! I think as computational power goes up, numerical methods and artificial intelligence will keep on playing a bigger role in our research. I think we also need to collide particles at higher energies to see what's inside. A lot of my colleagues work on the Future Circular Collider (FCC) - have a look at this: ua-cam.com/video/4aXgBzFAzDk/v-deo.html
Hi nice video. Can you briefly explain me about your field of research? I mean is accelerator physics a part of particle physics or high-energy physics or is it a totally specific different branch. What are the similarities & differences among these three fields from research perspective?
Hello! In accelerator physics, we work with transporting and accelerating beams of charged particles close to the speed of light. We use magnets and radio-frequency cavities to manipulate the beam, squeezing it to tiny sizes such that there are enough particle collisions and the LHC detectors study these collisions. Accelerator physics is a lot about applied electromagnetism, classical mechanics and numerical simulations at the end of the day. There are some similarities with high-energy physics (HEP) as we study the same particles, but most often they investigate the strong or weak forces, whereas accelerator physics mostly uses the electromagnetic force. Hope it clarifies a bit, I can send some more introduction material if you are interested ;)
Exciting with PhD prospects! I would recommend looking for researchers in the field at your uni or local area, ask them to do a project together. There are many ways into CERN, but knowing people at your uni who have seen you working hard on a project really helps!
Hey, I'm Physics Bachelor Student and I would dearly love to go and work/do anything at CERN. How difficult is it to get a place in some kind of program? Thank you for giving us a authentic insight.
Hello! First point: there are many ways into CERN, either through a research group at your university or through some of the student programmes at CERN: careers.smartrecruiters.com/CERN/students Recruiters and supervisors look not only for grades but also project experience, programming skills and passion for the topic. If I were you, take some small uni research projects to start exploring what you like - this makes you stand out. Also emailing researchers directly inside CERN led many of my colleagues here. If they notice that you have already read up on the topic, it says a lot about your drive! I intend to make a video soon on tips on getting into CERN for students :)
@@eliaswaagaard thank you very much for your answer. Funny you say it, because tomorrow I start my first day working in a research group :). Are there also other experiments at cern involving something in the direction of photonics? And please do make a video talking about getting into CERN.
@@hudsonhorsmann6686 CERN does a lot of research on ionization and laser spectroscopy, see this page: sy-dep-sti.web.cern.ch/lp In particular, this happens at the ISOLDE experiment as I understood it.
Hello! My intention is to make a particular video on CERN applications, for now I can recommend taubytes.com/ . This website contains many useful tips for applying to CERN :)
Hi Elias, I have always considered studying physics. Although I am extremely curious and interested I am not sure if I should pursue this little dream of mine at the TUM. Do you think there is a high demand in phycisists, which jobs do you think are most common and how difficult is it to get the possibility to work at Cern? Thank you very much for your help!
Hello! From my experience, physicists are in really high demand everywhere - not only in academia but also in many companies or agencies. Studying physics is hard and takes quite some intellectual effort, but is extremely rewarding and makes you perceive the world in such a deeper way. Rather than just a study path, it is a lifestyle choice I would say. Having pursued a PhD in physics is often perceived a quality stamp that you are able to distinguish very subtle important patterns from noise, but also that you are capable of mathematics, programming and project management. Some former physicists I know ended up as very well-off consultants, data scientists, entrepreneurs or software engineers. If you are ready for this path, it is something I can truly recommend. Then after your studies there are thousands of possibilities. I can really recommend the CERN technical student programme at the end of your studies, e.g. for a Master's thesis: careers.smartrecruiters.com/CERN/tech If you are from a CERN member state, have some research project experience at your uni and reasonable grades, you have quite of a good chance getting into CERN. Once you are inside CERN, learning opportunities are endless, so this is a fantastic starting point. Good luck for all your ventures :)
is TUM good? i am very confused with the German education system, what is the ranking of german universities? is the acceptance very selective? what is a gym?
@@grapefruitsyrup8185 As far as I know the TUM is one of the leading universities in Germany and also in the world. My teacher told me (He studied at the TU Chemnitz and in Stanford) that you can't really get wrong with a university in Germany, which differs from the US. A "Gym" is a "Gymnasium" which is basically the highest type of school path you can go before going to a university. Hope this helps a bit :)
@@grapefruitsyrup8185coming from Munich myself, TUM has a great reputation not only nation-, but also worldwide. They are highly equipped with research gear, especially in particle physics as well. Getting into TUM physics isn't hard, if I recall correctly its the only subject without acceptance criteria, but with very hard tests the first two semesters you need to pass in order to continue with your studies. Might be, that as a foreigner youre competing with other foreigners to get into the x amount of slots for foreign students, that they offer. (that's still quite a bit)
For some reason your cadence and speaking reminds me of the way Pewdipie/Felix speaks when he's being mock surprised! Though I suppose it makes senseboth bein swedish, hehe. Regardless, really informative and interesting video on how CERN actually works. Too few videos showing the actual realistic side of things on something like this! Appreciate it :).
Man i envy you this Stuff is fascinating but I’m too dumb to comprehend any of it. Nonetheless really cool to see. Is the Statue of some Hindu goddess thing real?
They couldnt actually create a Big black Hole which could be Dangerous for us but there are theories that small microscopical black holes could be created These wouldnt be Dangerous and Would evaporate instantlly
Hi Elias so you have Instagram or any messaging app to contact you . I have to ask you some important questions regarding this subject . Anyways your work is the best
This guy is living his dream and working at such an important place. It’s tough not to envy him. Do great things!
