No, you can’t get money by saying that you want to look for particles. You need something specific that many bureaucrats and scientists think is a good use of money. The days of just looking for things ended decades ago.
When a "particle" is spread out, like a densification of "aether," covering a wide area, like a waveform in a medium, and this is its ("particle's") coarsest possible state, then how could it be measured ? It is present; it is "dark", but unmeasurable (like "aether"). It is easier to say that: "It does not exist" (AS PARTICLE). It is a local quality of space rather than a particle. If, for example, we imagine that the "cosmological constant" has a local variation or transformation, how could it be measured ?
I think it's indeed the best way to describe dark matter as ghost because nobody ever has a glimpse of it, and maybe I can finally interact with it after becoming a ghost upon my death years later lol... 👻
Dark matter is dilated mass. G.R predicts dilation not singularities. In the 1939 journal "Annals of Mathematics" Einstein wrote - "The essential result of this investigation is a clear understanding as to why the Schwarzchild singularities (Schwarzchild was the first to raise the issue of G.R. predicting singularities) do not exist in physical reality. Although the theory given here treats only clusters (star clusters) whose particles move along circular paths it does seem to be subject to reasonable doubt that more general cases will have analogous results. The Schwarzchild singularities do not appear for the reason that matter cannot be concentrated arbitrarily. And this is due to the fact that otherwise the constituting particles would reach the velocity of light." He was referring to the phenomenon of dilation (sometimes called gamma or y) mass that is dilated is smeared through spacetime relative to an outside observer. It's the phenomenon behind the phrase "mass becomes infinite at the speed of light". A graph illustrates its squared nature, dilation increases at an exponential rate the closer you get to the speed of light. A "time dilation" graph illustrates the same phenomenon, it's not just time that gets dilated. Dilation will occur wherever there is an astronomical quantity of mass because high mass means high momentum. There is no singularity/black hole at the center of our galaxy. It can be inferred mathematically that dilation is occurring there. In other words that mass is all around us. This is the explanation for galaxy rotation curves. The "missing mass" is dilated mass. Dilation does not occur in galaxies with low mass centers because they do not have enough mass to achieve relativistic velocities. To date, 6 very low mass galaxies including NGC 1052-DF2 and DF4 have been confirmed to show no signs of dark matter. This also explains why all planets and all binary stars have normal rotation rates, not 3 times normal. The concept of singularities is preventing clarity in astronomy. Einstein is known to have repeatedly said that they cannot exist. Nobody believed in them when he was alive including Plank, Bohr, Schrodinger, Dirac, Heisenberg, Feynman etc.
@@never2yield20 Einstein's reasoning on why singularities do not exist is solid as a rock. Television and movies popularized singularities beginning in the 1960's. The recent discovery that very low mass galaxies have predictable star rotation rates is virtual proof that dark matter is dilated mass.
@@never2yield20 Dilation will occur wherever there is an astronomical quantity of mass. The centers of very high mass stars and the overwhelming majority of galaxy centers should be dilated
I commend the BBC for avoiding the phrase "dark matter." I was just complaining yesterday that "dark matter" is the headline of every mystery of physics. Ghosts makes me stop and scratch my head.
I saw a video talking about "rogue" planets that are wondering around the galaxy (and presumably all galaxies). It was postulated that there are a lot more of these "dark" planets out there then we thought and this could even be the source of dark matter. the idea was that if there were enough planets without stars to orbit around, they would be very dark and hard/impossible to detect, but would add up to a large gravitational force. did you ever think of doing a video on this idea? thanks Sabine for all the hard work on your videos. i really enjoy them.
The point with dark matter is that what we observe is that it has a gravitational effect, but it doesn't interact with electromagnetism or weak and strong nuclear. If there were just many planets that we can't see, we indeed would see these gravitational effects, but we would also see more effects appart from gravity. That is all the point with dark matter and its difference with normal matter, it is not just normal matter that is in a dark place.
Im not a scientist but I have videos recorder with nvg where light, energy orbs clearly go thru objects. Also they react to laser and will approach to interact if they choose to. I only see them in one area . Tried in other cities and I didn't see any. Are these ghost particles?

Expansion of the Universe Theory : Sewing Button Expandable Rulers, in series, provides an analog demonstration of a mathematical constant expanse. Big bang is starting origin, we are p1 of x positions, the observable universe p2 of x positions. Under this model, constant expanse is present. Point to be made, by understanding which directions from us a local observer, expand, faster or slower, we could determine our earthly location in accordance to the big bang. This model also shows how further points appear to be expanding away from origin at greater and increasing speeds. Reason being expanse from X to X2 is constant , however the compounding expanse of each point, means X and X^n+1, the later point will be moving away at the constant plus all the constants between points. All points expand constant, but to the observer, further points move away with greater speed than the observed local constant.
Oh and dont even get me started on how yes red shift, but also energy decay. Light loosing energy as it travels, and shifting do to the stretch of space. This used with ^^^ that, could also help define out location according to the big bang. We know know everything is expanding in all directions, which direction expand observably expand less than expected and more than expected. A directional expanse could then be used with geometry to find center. Based on expanding sphere model.
Your comment is not very clear so I'm not exactly sure what you are talking about, but as far as we know the big bang took place in the entire universe (or at least in the observable one), so there is no such thing as an origin, or a distance towards this origin.
single point expanding into, say, a spherical shape. If a single point expanded into a sphere, we can use math to determine center, and our position to center.

Sabine, can you please tell me where the evidence is of all the planetary motions that we know are going on, including galactic motions? I am looking for something that has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. And, especially, evidence within the domain of particle physics. BTW are there any experiments that model the planetary and Galactic motions, physical models not computer simulations? If not, but some physical models exist how deeply nested are those models?
Lol, I used to work at CERN with the CHORUS collaboration experiment, looking for neutrino oscillations out of the same tungsten target. I bet this is at the same experimental location. Ironically the neutrino oscillations couldn't be detected at CERN because we were too close to the source of neutrinos...
The fact that there isn't an eye-watering price-tag attached to this experiment makes me a lot less cynical about this than I usually am about particle-physics experiments.
Someone behind the project needs to find a way to get the device officially designated the PKE. They are already using positron coliders (though sadly, while probably for the best, this one is licensed)...
I was wondering about the possibility that we might have missed something rarely produced or hard to detect in an energy range lower than the maximum of our particle accelerators, and had been thinking to ask it in the comments to some future Fermilab video . . . and here it is, under actual consideration.
One big problem with this approach is that if we are wrong about how “weakly” they interact, and they end up being highly attracted to one another (or to other particles), creating a highly concentrated area of them could be extremely dangerous. Imagine if these particles are actually those responsible for singularity-like behavior, and we’re about to create a room full of them.
What I don't get is how a massive particle is less interactive than a neutrino? isn't the dark matter neutral and more massive? how is that something similar but way bigger is less interactive?
That is what they thought in the past, what i understood is that the theory shifted to defend that hipotetical dark matter particles are actually less massive. There is also the opposing theory, modified gravity, that doesn't need new particles.
I do not think Dark Matter is a particle what can be found in an accelerator. I'm more thinking toward that dark matter is an effect of the moving space-time. In principle frame dragging. More over, I think the "empty" space has mass and momentum too and it is very "elastic" (gravity wave)...
It seems to me the Dark Matter is the Ether. When atoms come together their Electron Orbital Shells come together and form Electron Valance Shells. When atoms come together and form a matter like earth, then all the Electron Valance Shells come together to form a Massively Multilayered Electron Valance Shell. The MMEVS is a pressure gradient and generates a buoyancy force which we call gravitational field. The MMEVS field is a field which is made up of electric field AND magnetic field shells. Through this field, light passes as radiation waves. Gravity-wise, it is same with the moon and the sun and any other matter which exists in this universe and beyond. The Ether is the fundamental field and matters are created from the Ether, I think as cavitation bubbles. I hope it helps.😅
Thank you for your insights. Maybe it has more explanatory power to assume that the particles also go through the superfluid phase transition that you were working on? (name it superghosts)
Yes, the masses of particles that can form superfluids are in the same range. I've actually spent quite some time trying to come up with estimates for direct detection experiments, but in the end I couldn't find a way to say anything sensible about it. (So I said nothing...)
Dark matter travels faster than the speed of light. You cannot catch it because it travels faster than light can bounce to detect. You will need a gravitational detector to detect dark matter and how fast it is traveling. LIGO plus machine can do it.
As the past-ghosts of future cognitive beings (biotic or digital/quantic beings) who will live 1k million from now on, I reckon it's inadmissible to deny them our present, childhood experiments !
Does anyone else think that dark matter is really just local variations in the topology of space? It seems (to me) like such an obvious possibility, and they're really not finding anything anyway.

Hello, Sabine. Great video as always! I am watching your channel because I like your "no bullshit" method))) I have offtopic question, i am a simple person without deep knowledge in physics or math, so I wanted to ask real professor about this. Sir Roger Penrose has his CCC theory, I am amazed by it and i think that I understand it's abstract principle. But to me it looks like everybody in scientific world ignoring it. So my question is why? Is it because there is some holes or errors in that theory and everybody do not want to upset Sir Roger? Or there is some other reason? Please explain it to me because it's bothering me for years.
I see a graphical representation of time space as a "Sheet" where each point represents Einstein's solutions This is the ballon visual. I did "see" a "surface" stretched across wherever I was. (Mirror representation) of me in real time. (Wolfgang Pauli Exclusion principle)
Dear Sabine, please get your facts straight: The SPS can reach an energy of 450 GeV, not "a fairly low energy of about 5 GeV". The beam to the SHiP experiment will have an energy of 400 GeV. See 1:44 in your own video.
The science uses the term Dark Matter because the existence of some strange kind of matter can mathematically be proven (because it has gravity and interacts with our observable universe - Ordinary Matter) but is invisible. Untill we prove that it isn't some kind of matter from different (higher, lower or parallel) dimension or something similar, the more precise term to use should be Invisible or ghostly matter, simply because the words dark and invisible can never be synonyms.

As a stiens gate fan i cannot allow CERN to mess with dark particles 😂
Someone behind the project needs to find a way to get the device officially designated the PKE. They are already using positron coliders (though sadly, while probably for the best, this one is licensed)...
Now I'm conCERNed...
xD
Had Ron elevated your conCERNes?
Womp womp
I always believed that apparitions are real. Physicists will soon find out.
Could regions of reinforcement from overlapping gravitational waves explain what we observe as 'dark matter'?
I was wondering about the possibility that we might have missed something rarely produced or hard to detect in an energy range lower than the maximum of our particle accelerators, and had been thinking to ask it in the comments to some future Fermilab video . . . and here it is, under actual consideration.
Your videos are more interesting, fun and easy to understand than videos from PBS Spacetime.
I thought a part of the SPS was demolished and the remaining part is a pre-collider to the LHC? Cool if they reactivate it.
One big problem with this approach is that if we are wrong about how “weakly” they interact, and they end up being highly attracted to one another (or to other particles), creating a highly concentrated area of them could be extremely dangerous.
Imagine if these particles are actually those responsible for singularity-like behavior, and we’re about to create a room full of them.
What I don't get is how a massive particle is less interactive than a neutrino? isn't the dark matter neutral and more massive? how is that something similar but way bigger is less interactive?
That is what they thought in the past, what i understood is that the theory shifted to defend that hipotetical dark matter particles are actually less massive.
There is also the opposing theory, modified gravity, that doesn't need new particles.
Calling them "ghosts" is a literal zeitgeist.
You literally do not know what the word means.
There’s actually an employee named “particles” who works at CERN. He hides everyday and they look for him.
I do not think Dark Matter is a particle what can be found in an accelerator.
I'm more thinking toward that dark matter is an effect of the moving space-time. In principle frame dragging. More over, I think the "empty" space has mass and momentum too and it is very "elastic" (gravity wave)...
2:23 _Tantalium_ - perhaps we should regularise the name to fit in with Aluminium.

The hardest thing in the universe to find is something that does not exist. as far as i know, a Nothing Detector has yet to be invented.
the experiments have been done. the papers written. the results ignored for more costly endeavors. good job.
Ah, next to Bosons and Fermions we will finally have Casperons.
They gonna love them hidden particles, this is exciting
Tungsten is prone to corrosion. Tantalum cladding fixes that.
It seems to me the Dark Matter is the Ether. When atoms come together their Electron Orbital Shells come together and form Electron Valance Shells. When atoms come together and form a matter like earth, then all the Electron Valance Shells come together to form a Massively Multilayered Electron Valance Shell. The MMEVS is a pressure gradient and generates a buoyancy force which we call gravitational field. The MMEVS field is a field which is made up of electric field AND magnetic field shells. Through this field, light passes as radiation waves. Gravity-wise, it is same with the moon and the sun and any other matter which exists in this universe and beyond. The Ether is the fundamental field and matters are created from the Ether, I think as cavitation bubbles. I hope it helps.😅
Hi Sabine - why don't they look for missing mass?
The why files is the most honest debunction channal
Dark matter, the Easter bunny, string theory, Bigfoot and UFOs...
Scientist opens door and looks in the closet for hidden particles, "Peek a boo."
Try looking for temporal particles. We seem to forget that time bends as well as space.
🖖😎👍
Thank you for your insights. Maybe it has more explanatory power to assume that the particles also go through the superfluid phase transition that you were working on? (name it superghosts)
Yes, the masses of particles that can form superfluids are in the same range. I've actually spent quite some time trying to come up with estimates for direct detection experiments, but in the end I couldn't find a way to say anything sensible about it. (So I said nothing...)
@@SabineHossenfelderThank you
All that build up for something so short and sweet, 😆 i don't envy having to make videos like Sabine does 👍👍
Good. nicely explained.
1:38 Should've said, "...maybe they should call someone."
who you're gonna call?!?! (say it!)
The description of the experiment says it uses the 400GeV beam from the SPS, not 5GeV. Are you confusing the SPS with the venerable PS?
Dark matter travels faster than the speed of light. You cannot catch it because it travels faster than light can bounce to detect. You will need a gravitational detector to detect dark matter and how fast it is traveling. LIGO plus machine can do it.
Dark matter of the gaps.
As the past-ghosts of future cognitive beings (biotic or digital/quantic beings) who will live 1k million from now on, I reckon it's inadmissible to deny them our present, childhood experiments !
How many ghost particles in the average ghost?
😅one should ask the ghostbusters
Does anyone else think that dark matter is really just local variations in the topology of space? It seems (to me) like such an obvious possibility, and they're really not finding anything anyway.
We love Sabine ❤❤❤ but, my gal asks: do you have only one shirt? Every time she looks at the screen you have the same shirt on just about. For the sake of my ear, please bring in changes for when you shot sets. :-) ... see i cant even get through this response without her adding: its a nice shirt, but variety is the spice of life, girl! Have fun with it!
She explained it already som e other commenters: it´s because of the sponsors
@1:38 Einstein bobble head ghost says "hi", or rather "boo"
Ghost particles is click bait. On the other hand, how do you make a coherent headline for this, "CERN project to find particles with galaxy-sized wavelengths that might exist gets go-ahead" not too catchy.
Yes if they want scientific illiterate people to read the stuff they can't just be precise
Maybe it's an excuse to fire those big, powerful things more often - that's got to be a lot of fun.
This may be a stupid question but why can't they just build a spiralled collider and stack the loops on top of each other?
We can forget that brains can have a sense of humor. Thanks Sabine...
Ok, so CERN is going to use a proton accelerator to try and catch ghosts... 1984 me just got really really excited. Any chance we can get Murray, Aykroyd and Hudson to make an appearance on this?
Brilliant, nice experiment....
. . . and I suppose that SHiT stands for "Search for HIdden Things"
Hello, Sabine. Great video as always! I am watching your channel because I like your "no bullshit" method)))
I have offtopic question, i am a simple person without deep knowledge in physics or math, so I wanted to ask real professor about this. Sir Roger Penrose has his CCC theory, I am amazed by it and i think that I understand it's abstract principle. But to me it looks like everybody in scientific world ignoring it. So my question is why? Is it because there is some holes or errors in that theory and everybody do not want to upset Sir Roger? Or there is some other reason? Please explain it to me because it's bothering me for years.
I see a graphical representation of time space as a "Sheet" where each point represents Einstein's solutions This is the ballon visual. I did "see" a "surface" stretched across wherever I was. (Mirror representation) of me in real time. (Wolfgang Pauli Exclusion principle)
SPS operates at 450 GeV, not at 5 GeV like Sabine said.
" The stars are matter. We are matter. It doesn't matter." Don Van Vliet.
Dear Sabine, please get your facts straight: The SPS can reach an energy of 450 GeV, not "a fairly low energy of about 5 GeV". The beam to the SHiP experiment will have an energy of 400 GeV. See 1:44 in your own video.
You are so delicate! Congrats \õ/
The science uses the term Dark Matter because the existence of some strange kind of matter can mathematically be proven (because it has gravity and interacts with our observable universe - Ordinary Matter) but is invisible. Untill we prove that it isn't some kind of matter from different (higher, lower or parallel) dimension or something similar, the more precise term to use should be Invisible or ghostly matter, simply because the words dark and invisible can never be synonyms.
The Scooby-Doo gang should poke around CERN. See if they can catch a guy in a mask.
Why do they have to do this experiment during the solar eclipse? I'm not quite sure I understand...
To misquote "Field of Dreams," "Build it and the particles will come!" 🤪
If there are no 'ship ghosts' then where does Captain Jack Sparrow come into the equation? 😊 And they say physicsts have no sense of humour
I always felt like camera film cases could possibly contain the secrets to dark matter. 🧐
The fact you didn't flash a quick reference to ghostbusters movie of some kind makes me sad :)
Why isn’t this all over the news like what
