- What is the Large Hadron Collider and what is it looking for? This video also features sixtysymbols' very own "Small Hotrod Collider". Extra interview footage from this video at • Large Hadron Collider ...
With Mike Merrifield and James Clewett
I like the people that are on this show. They each have their own style and personality. So fun.
This video is making us smile, 12 years later. Thank you all.
"I have absolutely no idea if this is gonna work"
- every scientist ever
Am I the only person that thinks just sitting and having a cup of tea or coffee with these guys would be the most mind blowing experience you could ever have? besides actually becoming a particle physicist. I love hearing and learning about science, even if I don't fully understand it I am still fascinated by it all. This video dates itself however since the filming of it they have found the Higgs. :-) I also found the smashing of matchbox cars to be fascinating as a child lol.
epic intro and title!
Imagine the outcome if the budgets were switched around.
awesome as always
A good experiment (such as the various experiments that will be conducted with the LHC) will let you learn something no matter the result, if they see certain particles, it tells them something, if they don't see them, it tells them something else.
Brilliant comment at the end, couldn't agree more.
Scientists and engineers like making new things, blowing stuff up and finding out how things work. The best thing they like is making things that blows other stuff up and even better if it teaches them something new.
If these guys weren't doing this stuff at CERN then most of them would be developing products for the military because that is one of the few places where people still pay you to make new things and blow stuff up. So my view is that this is a good way to keep them out of harms way.
The Large Hard-on Collider is definitely worth the money.
; )
I very much appreciate these videos. Thank you!
Why do you think he's a hell of a lot smarter than me?
This guy has got where he has today by reading books and 'understanding' other peoples theories. He, and the others in this video, are a product of an academic system that favours those that can remember what they read in books, rather than free thinkers. That's why we've ended up with a load of drones, who think furthering Physics means building a bigger collider, and are a million miles away from finding another Newton or Einstein.
I'd like to share a couple of more examples of how the particle physics community helped develop the Internet as it is today. The first complete Web site- what Dr. Tim Berners-Lee called HTML's "killer app"- was developed and hosted at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Mosaic- the first graphical web browser- was developed by NCSA, an organization which has developed numerous software algorithms for particle physics research.
Great vid! =D
@Draxis32 Exactly! Can you imagine how much more progress could have been made if we, as humans, concentrated more on figuring out how to survive as a whole instead of ways to kill eachother?!
@TheManGuyDude
And that's only in one direction. When you add the speeds of both directions up things become interesting because then Einsteinian relativity comes into play.
@Arwiiss I like the idea. However, America only spends Half of what you suggested (600 billion) still, that's 60 LHC's
Was there a dope sweater contest you didn't invite me to? For shame, Dr. B.
Ever get the impression that a person is not a fanboi? Its like trying to tell the lemmings that the cliff is ahead but the herd keeps on marching. My only consolation will be a "I told you so" once this fails again. If you really want to know I can show other directions but most people don't really care.
We, the people, are responsible for the kind of government we have. We have got to get people to be more informed so we can elect representatives to stop these unnecessary perpetual wars that only benefit huge corporations and special interests. Just keep talking to friends and neighbors and maybe 6-7 years from now, things can change.
I think we should put Bolt in there he will easily reach the speed of light
or we could get chuck norris there to scare it into working?
I begin to wonder how often a particle physicist writes out an equation and then has to use a piece of equipment the size of the a small city to test it...
@rambo6267 the big bang.They already made antimatter for around a quadrillion second ._.
@HaT223
As far as I'm concerned, the hubble pictures like deep field, and the casini saturn pictures make all of that money infinitely more worth it than the billions they spend on national defense every year.
Find this particles would help to a better understanding of the universe and is essential for, you know, space exploration and see how our world works...
this is just the beginning though. to really see the instant of the big bang we would need an accelerator the size of our solar system.
I'll tell you my theory.
The LHC is more of an Engineering project than a Physics one.
It's a geeks version of who can build the biggest skyscraper.
Like all the colliders before it, it will give no definite answers. All it will do is give geeks more words like 'quark' to try and impress people with.
No doubt afterwards the Physicists will be wanting to build the Very Big Hadron Collider, and we'll get guys like 'the fool' telling us how this will be the one that gives all the answers.
Thanks i actually didn't know that, i watched some report about it being plagued by faults (BBC). so was it still broken from the time i think one of the magnets melted or somthing??
I love science i'm actually a bit of a sport scientists myself but this does intrest me
I'm glad to see more vids from you, keep up the good work.
@vevenaneathna The internet was invented by the US military around the 1960s or 70s I think, the web is different, that was invented in the 80s by particle physicists at CERN. Google it and you'll find out pretty easily what the difference is.
awesome
0:27 - 0:31 My mind is blown.
Thank you Sixty Symbols for this special::How the premise of the mass at a distance ignition of the Higgs to other mechanics of ignition would work, would be a two pronged estimation. This is at in order to create a universe, one must have to have a substance to create something. This presence might so be expressed as a near or like liquid media material, “let's call it a lake in space without dimensions”., however length, width and volume. The higgs is ever present, so is already located within that media.
So translated as a happening the higgs at the right time and right temperature trips ignition of the super pervasive mass and in the dimension of only a line segment, part of that mass is therefore ignited, or made to the actions of creation.
The problem is in the understanding however, that from distance of A to C, what is the ignition consistency?
Is this in under or parts of a second at an involved one kilometer's distance rate, or does ignition take because of placement of the lake involving rate, take two or more seconds. Or is there a conversion module for that kilometers distance, that is under one second?
Is there something like or similar which occurs in nature to where an after-effect of remnant leftover constituencies of matter has been left that you can reconstruct what that ignition process was?
Yes' it is the Leftover post creation ghost veils as posed as a study in presentation of these veils by Dr. Wendy L. Friedman and spouse noted in Scientific American Mag. on spectroscopy of post creational per unit areas of space as an essay.
The key question with concerns of collapses of sections of space in probability as based as one massive explosion, is the question are super pressures to ignition and creation present? Thank you Note, I would be careful with the handling of the higgs in a media like same situation, because it has not been ruled out, that either another particle similar to the higgs or the higgs itself, is utilized in per areas or sections of space, in just creational episodes of space?
How do they start things up? Can you explain the the start to finish of colliding these things that make more stuff?
thank you.
I'm sure at some point in the future, this technique will seem very primitive too :P
I can't think one single reason why human race should need this at all and how it can contribute to real happiness and peace in the world. The only idea of putting all this effort and wealth just to go and smashing things is plain silly. All we really need is love: is this concotion going to bring us that? No, Sorry.
Anyway, I think you'll find that the theories you've mentioned are well-substantiated, rather than substantiated. Therefore they are un-substantiated to a degree.
So, even though you took my original statement out of context, it isn't actually incorrect.
If you're implying it'd be more feasible to put a 20+ mile ring of impossibly massive parts into space and then a team of thousands of astronauts to run the thing..
then maybe. I think you get my point.
If there were to be a large Norwegian particle accelerator they should call it Thor or Mjollnir.
Is this thing actually going to work?? i swear its always broken.
R34:
Large Hardon Collider.
ITS ALIVE!!!
What would happen if you collided two hydrogen atoms together in the LHC? I'm not sure of the specifics, but I bet you'd break it! Ultimately, yes, I imagine it'd be really fun to watch, or perhaps just to think about, because it might create a wormhole/weirder form of 'black' hole for some reason. Also, definitely some form of fusion would be taking place, or, well, at least it'd be far more dangerous, that's about as far as my educated guesses can take me.
I'm guessing troll.
1) a hydrogen atom IS a proton.
2) they already collide much larger ions, which is why it's call LHC and not LPC.
Protons mate
@mrrobotica Feel free to vote that way, but I don't agree, and most don't.
I think the amount of economical support for research these days is ridiculous.
There is much more money invested in war, or wasted in economic speculation than in all history of phisics experiments.
We need to invest more, specially in phisics,wich I personally think its the head of the spear that cuts through progress, so we can achiev a developed society that will be able to control our destiny, and not be left on a small rock floating in the universe.
@madman123456 so a specific needle in a planet of needles.
I like the dude with the hammer... Who is he? :D
What is the 'purpose of the Universe?'
i read that on reddit too
So... The Higgs Boson is the wheel of a toy car???
@TheManGuyDude Coincidence? I think not!
is it even possible that it could make a black hole? or have some quatum gravity theorists gone nuts with predictions, because it sounds very unlikely to me :P
Must be dangerous crashing those hydrants together.
It was my sister who actually taught me, how to correctly wreck toy cars.
@vevenaneathna A government stands out for politicians.... how could politicians be responsible of INVENTING any kind of communication device without knowledge in phisics?! Make sure you DO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE between money investors and inventors !
One, Two, Three!!... .I miss... O_o
lol
Moonreft, i think unfortunatly you're going off on one when you don't really know what you're talking about. the basic fundamentals of the gravity model are right, at the least gravity is understood and we have used its science effectively. The problem is the only known way of calculating gravity and other things such as quatum physics doesn't necessarily work, and that the LHC is affected by limits on scientific capabilities.
I still can't believe people can ask question weather international team of scientist can payoff. I still claim: There is no knowledge that is no power.
......also 'Dark Matter / Energy ' pretty much has to exist, because, in us understanding gravity, something is stopping matter, and / or the universe collasping back in on itself ( tbh i'd take a guess and say you're also a global warming skeptic / carbon tax conspiricist, is it really that difficult to believe that not every theory science is some wild conspiracy that's made up )
Knowledge is knowing how to spell knowledge.
holy cows did you see how he smashed his fists together at 1:15 !! i tryed it and it hurt !
Why do they zoom in always....Same in periodic videos
The more energy in the collision, the shorter the wave length and reciprocal coherence time, so the most important information is in the fields of radiated energies (?).
Gravity is reciprocal Inflation?, the relative rates of timing duration in resonant structures observable in atom smashing perhaps.
When it is funded at the point of a gun it is wrong. Another thing that is wrong is the gravity only model with which this experiment is based.
HELL YES! Thatz why i wanna take physics major!
How did that guy not break his knuckles at 1:14?
He's not made of glass.
I was wondering just the same thing xD
i feel educated
Remember this: The money to construct something is basically the wages of all the people in the chain of making and producing the thing. The material costs are nothing. Even if you complain that you need so and so much of rare metals you must understand that the original earth those metals came is almost 0 in it's value compared to all the wages that was paid to produce the machines used and usae of those machines to produce the metals.
So in the end all investment money is wages. Upkeep money is more of wages. Even the energy is basically free and the only cost of energy is maintaining the network and generators which in the end is wages. So it all comes to down that everything you pay is wages to someone else.
Or taxes. But taxes should be used for the infrastructure and it mostly used so in the countries that pay for these things.
Or the bank accounts of bilinaires. And that is a shame.
who is the guy speaking at 4:03???
1:13 -->> AUUUCH!!! tried that, almost broke my arm, but he was all like nothing happened!!!!!!1one
"This is a real boy toy." If he would say that to the girls working at lhc ?
;)
i though he said "when we try to understand nietzche"
R u kidding me
Energy equals life dot com
he says that at 8:00
right....
Most people who have left comments on this vid are a bit up their own arm pits!
im hungry
Does it bother anyone else that the top rated comment on an educational video has such bad spelling?
I replayed 3:08
Professor Merrifield reminds my a little bit of Lars Ulrich (no offense intended)
@LuciousVBogeymanProd
Haha, yeah right. ; )
SAME! hahaha it owns :P
lol @seanbrockest not bitter are you? :P
I think that a koran and a bible should be sent in opposite directions within the lhc to see what the outcome would be,probably not much as there is no sustance in either :)
amen 4 the last comment
If your car engine had only 98 to 99% of its components, it would not work or perform as it should. I have no time for pipe dream's conclusions. Do not take offence.
Sarcasm doesn't translate well in text. The statement posed in the first comment will be made a question here. Who is paying for this and who is holding the gun at the heads of the people to extract these funds? Follow the money and you will find your motivation.
I'd like to get some answers from a more unbiased source, from those who take all facts into account and do not try to prove something they want to believe at all costs. Let alone personal and collective interests. Anyhow, it was a pleasure to talk with you, it isn't easy to find people ready to discuss these matters without getting heated up like you were talking religion. Or we are? Have a splendid New Year!
i am glad they do not do biology like this....smach frogs together and look at the goo that comes out to see how frogs wrok.
Biology takes organisms, dissects them, and performs a number of common methods including classification, examination of hidden structures, chemical analyses, and studies cells down to the molecular level, just to name a few.
Biology has a number of practices completely analogous to those used in particle physics.
@Draxis32 Most people dont believe in this, they think a god will come and save them in the end. We have to change peoples mindset before we can progress.
Frogs are actually alive you know... Just sayin'
Not really
You think anyone is taking you seriously with such an obvious account name? :D
Why did I not believe you. My eyes!
O_O
odd and i though biology was "not life, study of"...I'm just sayin'
wont it suck its own power cord?! tats stupid
Troll much?
how will finding these particles benefit the world?
What is so creative, godly, profound, or informative about bashing and destroying particles. Einstein used his creative imagination, his knowledge, and his consciousness. The new scientists bash themselves to pieces. It's like going to a crime scene and putting together how an event occured, but clearly it is not creation, study consciousness instead.
