Finaly I understand that I don't understand quantum mechanics ...
+Jean Maanviss Hey Jean, i couldn't have written it any better myself. Isn't it just awesome coming to the understanding that you don't understand, & in so doing finding peace in your new found understanding of Not understanding??? I certainly do!?
+Dirt Fisherman it's seems you're right. The Schrodinger's cat is awesome .. just like me. I am (the cat) both understand (live) and didn't understand (dead) when I learning (open) the quantum mechanic ( the box). lol
+Jean Maanviss Like all quatum scientist too lol
The most important thing to remember from all this is simply that ATOMS ARE ONLY ATOMS WHEN THEY'RE VIEWED BY A CONSCIOUSNESS.WHEN THEY'RE NOT BEING VIEWED BY A CONSCIOUSNESS THEY GO BACK TO BEING WAVES CALLED PROBABILITY WAVES.WE'RE CONSCIOUSNESS THAT CREATE THE ATOMS THAT MAKE UP THE ENTIRE PHYSICAL REALITY JUST BY LOOKING AT THEM.WHEN WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT THEM THEY GO BACK TO BEING PROBABILITY WAVES.FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE GOOGLE:PROFESSOR ANDREW TRUSCOTT.ALSO THE NEXT TIME A CHRISTIAN TELLS YOU THAT THE (CHRISTIAN) GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE YOU SHOULD SHOW THEM EVERYTHING I JUST TOLD YOU ABOUT.
don't worry your "clone" on one of the parallel worlds understands it
if this is for dummies I'd hate to see the one for smart people!
look up MIT OCW quantum mechanics
yeah ... i find it oddly hot
I've been looking for weeks now, to find ANYTHING understandable. You have NO idea.
Right? I'm already baffled.
I swearr
The real problem here is the mechanics used generate repeatable observable outputs such as electrons.
But their actual behavior in an atomic structure is impossible to directly observe.
So placing quantum mechanics aside (like completely aside) we have to really step back and ask ourselves if the current ideology of calculating the fields and particles in an atom is an accurate representation of the actual mechanism or just predictable way to describe its behavior and output.
Hence buzzterms like "dark matter" etc that bandaid our lack of understanding on why our theorums fail to predict specific things even their behavior in space and the universe
And the same goes with quantum mechanics.
The main reason i feel there is so much infighting is we assume we know all of these things when in actuality even the assumption of the fact that quantum mechanics even works is solely based on an abstract experiment dealing with the output of photons.
This is like looking at a clockface. Seeing the time, checking multiple clockfaces to confirm they are in synch and then at a far later date opening the clock to find that instead of mechanical workings there is a cartoon squirrel powering the output to move the hands.
While it may have been predictable on the outside and we can use it to do other operations and to simply synchronize and tell time until the clock was opened releaving its workings we still had no fundimental way of understanding why it did what it did.
Science needs to be more clear when it comes to the difference between fact and theorem.
All of this is great until you are forced to understand anything in total....like the clock with the cartoon squirrel inside of it...lol

Because in 1666 an apple fell on Newton's head
Our modern view of gravity from this event was bred
'Till Einstein came along and said "Newton man, you suck.
It's obvious that space-time controls gravity, you shmuck."
The unification wasn't to come from relativity
So then Einstein spent his later years in mental misery
Then in 1968 the world of physics it did change
And through the years a new theory arrived and it was strange
It said the world we live in is comprised of not but strings
These tiny bits of energy, these crazy wiggly things
It finally made the subatomic forces work with gravity
The quantum world and Einstein became one big family
We're riding the knowledge express man!
Oh well with string theory uncertainty had shown its ugly face
There were five versions each unique so which should we embrace
Then Edward Witten came along and said "Hey guys, shut up."
There's eleven dimensions P-branes, D-Branes, and much more close up
The world gave out a collective "ahh" and everyone did understand
The universe and unification might be close at hand
See, different string vibrations cause the particles we know
And each dimension helps explain why strings move just like so
We may be just a membrane and our world is not unique
There may be many other universes so to speak
But in this crazy string based world there's so much we can do
So man, just lay back and let the super symmetry work for you
Particles: teenagers who just want to do whatever they want but when the adults come in, they do their homework.
best way to describe quantum mechanics by far
that was the same theory i was putting together. Seems we travel through the same slit and share the same space at different times. Maybe that what time travel is really.
Now that I understood
Nice one, I like that.
@ Alan Pompon, Particles should just grow up eh?
It is impressive that almost 6 years ago some one created an animated video of this caliber all by her/himself
Mrs. Schrodinger asked her husband: where’s the cat? Erwin answered: well, there are both, good and bad news!

Honestly quantum mechanics sounds so fictional. I love it.
it sounds so real..which is why I love it.

This is not for dummies
True....
Its not just reading the statement, it the interpretation. What it means, this is targeted towards Dummies, because Dummies actually will believe this guys ideas (theories)
Have you watch another video of quantum mechanics? Trust me, this is more understandable
@@goodtasteification yeah theories, the most successful theories ever haha
This is for the I Q impaired?
Imagine trying to outsmart an electron😂
The mere thought was heard or observed by the electrons,.... are they were omni present?
Absolutely. You can either try to outsmart an electron or use its properties.
Camera shy dudes
What a brilliant simplified overview of what Quantum mechanics is about!! Well done girl!!!
it hurts my head to know that this is simplified….
Somewhere we are laughing about us, trying to grasp this shit.
Love this comment
those electrons are shy when you look at them
i think the scientists who thought about this were drunk.
well if u dont understand quantum mechanics doesn't mean that the scientist were drunk..! better u stick for mechanics....u dnt deserve the word QUANTUM..
Neal Cheung mm
Brien so because you don't understand quantum physics it means that people who actually understand it don't deserve to breathe? *smh*
Armel Chausse lol.. Good one. Breathing now
Two years into chemical engineering and this whole quantum mechanics is starting to make sense, so don't give up if you are not understanding, you just need to study all this concepts over and over again!
I'm running out of things to do. Who's here during this pandemic?
Diane Bautista me too im bored to death
Me! I wanted to get smart, so i googled quantum physics for dummies
I'm studying quantum physics even though I'm never gonna use it in my life being an arts student 🙂🔫
I'm shocked this video doesn't have significantly more views. This is one of the clearest explanations I've heard.
The amount of wrong information is also through the roof. So many "simplifications" are made that give you a false idea of what's really going on. One example: electrons, protons, neutrons, etc aren't particles, they're waves. They only become particles temporarily when they're observed (observed means interacted with by another particle or field). And that's not even 1 minute into the video.
@@louisrobitaille5810and super position was all wrong the experiment referenced was interference not from observation but from photons from the cameras
What puzzles me is "observation". What is different about an-observing and non-observing piece of equipment. What is the essence of being an observer? How does a wave function know it is being observed?
+Roedy Green to observe which slot the particle goes through you need to interact with it, like bouncing a photon off it, there by interfering with it and collapsing it's super position. to not observe which slot it goes through you just look at the back wall where they strike to determine their behaviour.
+Roedy Green For me, the difference is in the energy . Every thought sends its own class of energy... It could be negative or positive...and to 'observe' means one to be having a thought about the thing observed, and as a result, feeling something...That 'something' is what the 'wave' feels as an order, because the 'something' goes full charged with energy.
Araminta Verdi
Woo.
+Roedy Green you can collect the information but not look at it or they sometimes say take a measurement,so you can have the detectors on but don't collect the results and nothing happens but if you collect the information so as to look at it latter the it will no have the wave function so observation is not at the time but the dame electron seems to know this,one other thing it does not have to be an electron a whole atom can do the same,anything very small photons can also this.hope this will bring in a few more comments.
+Araminta Verdi So this is why my experience of a movie changes depending on who I brought to see it with.
What if the only reason we are living the life we are right now is because someone else is observing it
😱 *shuddering*
We ourselves observe ourselves too.
that sounds biblical

This is my first comment on RUclips. I cannot thank you enough for this wonderful video. Even though I cannot understand physics. This video made it possible... Thank you...Keep moving :)
thank you! I appreciate you're commenting and I'm really pleased you enjoyed this video.
What if the quantum leap is really electrons moving through a 4th spacial dimension not visible in our 3 dimensional world?
wow !
Was thinking the same thing. So, there’s even another level to it. Not only is it everywhere or in every state at once, it’s also in every position or state it’s ever been and will ever be in the future. Hence, time travel is possible, if you think about not having to worry about teleportation and the killing of the original Alice. Alice was already in that other position and also will be in that same position in the future. How to realize that superposition and (make up a word here…maybe supertime?) is difficult. Since space and time is spacetime, then superspace and supertime would be combined so everything (or anything) could exist in all probable positions at all probable times. Anything could be anywhere at anytime. The realization would only become apparent once observed. So who or what is observing us and can they manipulate any possible outcome? Could they change their observational focus and observe a different version of us in a different space and different time? And could we interact with the observer and somehow “manifest” ourselves in any position at anytime at our inclination? Can one of us or any atomic combination become an observer and somehow manipulate all of superspacetime? Or can we change our current state or time or position by becoming observers ourselves and measuring ourselves in those different locations at will? MAN, I am stoned…
It's not necessary to make the simulation work. Simple Quantum Mechanic saves a lot of CPU ressources.
Paradoxes are being fixed in the next universe upgrade.
Anything is possible when it comes to quantum mechanics/physics.
You mean fifth dimensional world. You are forgetting that we live in a fourth dimensional world--length, width, height and time.
In my infinite lack of wisdom I would simplify it one step further for the other layman’s like myself and state this....I just came up with this theorem so I will take full credit should it ever be used in scientific literature or a comic book.
Imagine we hold a mirror to the back of our head - there is an image of the back of our head on the mirror. We can see that image if we are facing another mirror ( a degree of separation). BUT if we try to quickly turn our head OBSERVE the image of the back of our head on the mirror we are left staring at our now perplexed face, wandering what the hell happened. By quickly turning our face in order to outsmart the image we in-fact changed the premise of the experiment and are thus left confused. I’m sure everyone reading this has at some stage in their life tried tricking the mirror. Then as you got older and wiser you realised that your primitive child brain needed a second degree of observation ( camera, another mirror) to infancy see the back of your head.
“In fact
Thank you. This simplified it...a bit
Way better explanation than I was expecting
+yoyoschmo1 :) I'm glad, it's always nice to hear you've surpassed expectation.
+LondonCityGirl You surpassed My Lecturers, and many textbooks, Credits to you.

LondonCityGirl - thx for posting

Like, cat.
One of the best explanations I've ever seen; great job!
Finally got it! Fantastic video thank you!!! 💗
The thing that really made me understand this was your explanation of the cameras observing the event. And the different locations/timings of the observation. That brought it all together for me.
I've watched several other videos and never quite got it until now.
Fantastic job. I'm quite chuffed I finally got it lol
I think quantum mechanics is God's way of trolling.
I disagree with you respectfully. I think that this very interesting, and is was to show off. God also gave us science to understand more of our world.
+Bredah Jake "Too bad he didn't give you a primer on grammar. Dismissed."
What's with the unwarranted hostility, man? Yeah, I suppose my use of "is" instead of "are" when talking about the subject of quantum mechanics is debatable and possibly outright wrong, but it's not like I'm struggling to string together a comprehensible sentence.
+Iva Boss "don't blame god, hes probably not listening, blame the muppet scientists and ther useless interpretations and explanations."
First off, I was joking in my initial comment, and I'm neither blaming God (who I don't believe in, anyway) nor any scientists. They're trying to make sense of a super complicated subject. Of course everything doesn't quite fit together yet. I'm sure they'll work it out eventually, or at least gradually inch closer to the truth.
electrons are the aliens way of traveling through the universe XD The True UFOs
OR Humans are just not using the Superposition Camera 2000 -_-
Maybe it is free of time and when we use Time based measurement it is fixated to our one dimension :/
or god just doesnt exist
Delivered very fast but extremely well explained, thanks.
This simplifies it so much so I can grasp the concept of it compared to how long you could be explaining it for this could go on for an hour with examples and breaking it all down thanks so much guys
I never fully understood Schrödinger’s cat until I saw this video. Thank you for explaining things so clearly.
Never let a physicist baby sit your cat.
+fuffoon haha, good point.
LondonCityGirl 😂😂
fuffoon bahahahahaha moral of the story mate 😂😂
At least not for more than half the time...
About the teleportation: i personally think we are just a "bunch" of information coded in form of DNA to represent us in a phisical state, so teleporting us would just be like cutting a file from our desktop and pasting it into the doc. folder.
The file is the same and we don't care about its previous location (state), we just need what's written inside hence i wouldn't -personally- mind teleportation. Bare in mind, it's 5 am and i haven't slept.
CaptainSeebas is the teleported you on up spin or down spin? Entanglement 1up/1down. Not exactly same based the explanation of entanglement. I would much rather walk through a portal/wormhole in 1 piece not worrying about the entanglement 1up/1down.
You deserve more subs. Even I have a hard time explaining this to people, but your methods are slick and simple.
Having a background in nuclear physics at such a young age, then heading into the military with it years ago, I still find myself studying and interested. And you are correct this has put a springboard effect in my mind, of wanting to know more. The video made an accurate description for as much as I know of the subject matter. Will endeavor to learn more! With thanks...
This is my 5th time watching this video , I just find this stuff so fascinating and I enjoy it so much

great video. been all over internet trying to find a simple explanation for all the elements of QM you have laid out here and it really brought it together for me. thanks.
This is by far the best video that I have watched regarding basic quantum mechanics explained in such fascinating style. Hats off to you and keep on posting stuffs like this.
+Raj K. Ranabhat Hi Raj, thanks for taking the time to leave such an encouraging comment - it's much appreciated :D
+LondonCityGirl What Raj said. I 'almost' feel I nearly have a small grasp of quantum, but I think without math it's not on.
The act of observation at the microscopic scale requires physical interaction (electromagnetic or photonic) and therefore partial or total change of what your instruments are interacting with. This disturbs the wave and it reverts to its particle state. Failing to account for the mechanism that is used to measure the electrons results in apparent contradictions.
I have a feeling the particle physicists are not that dumb, just a hunch though. And people keep forgetting this video is a simplified explanation.
You are behind the times Henry. Your explanation has been disproved. The detectors can by turned on, but the data recorders can be turned off, and the interference pattern still exists. Also, if the detectors' data is deleted before the screen's pattern is looked at, the interference pattern still exists. Therefore, the act of detection is not causing the interference pattern to go away.
Henry1405 thx for this
@@williamolenchenko5772 it isn't detection it is the act of measurement, and I know late reply
Hello all..... there are active scanners and passive scanners.... the cameras that are used to record the photons from the side (placed both before the barrier with the two slits and then after the barrier with the two slits) are passive recorders...... absorbing (recording) the photon results. Would someone please be so kind as to explain how these cameras change the results..... what feedback or action or communication is sent back to the initial output that causes it to change?
Its probably the best explanation compared to other videos i found. Very simple but a lot detailed. Thank you!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love watching these. Thank you for reigniting my passion for science!
Thank you so much for this video!! It's so much better compared to reading a physics textbook in class! :D
thanks Catherine - I'm a big fan of learning from video over text books I have to admit :) It's a good way to get an intro into a subject before delving into the complex stuff. x

You wish you had a better brain but it’s not the problem I don’t think, it’s just next to impossible to comprehend
@Dylan Stewart Bit of a late reply, but the truth is you cannot understand this concept without maths skills. There's no way around it unfortunately, and even to understand relativity at a good level you need the maths skills too. Words are nowhere near enough to describe it
2 mins in and I have a lot of notes written down, this video is good and very informative. Keep the good work up
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME VIDEO!!! I've been looking and hoping for a while now, to find a good introduction to quantum physics. This makes it so simple and easy to understand. And the illustrations helped that much more!! I'm super excited, thank you so much!
Thank you for making this, this feels like a pretty good interesting start at looking into quantum shindiggery. Hopefully this helps as a foundation for looking more into it and actually understanding anything the presenters are even saying. x3

LOL..... yes TOTALLY great (smile)
Guns are designed to kill people. If you wamt to stop mass shootings in school's etc ban the guns
@@mrwideboy r/whoosh
mrwideboy no they aren’t. They’re designed to fire a projectile. What a person uses that fired projectile to do determines their usage, their creation does not. They can be used for all kinds of things, killing being one of those uses. Cars were designed to transport people. If someone uses a car to run over someone else, that doesn’t mean that cars were designed to run someone over. It means someone chose to use them that way. It’s not a hard concept to understand. And banning them will not stop them from being used for bad purposes. Because the people that use them that way aren’t following the laws preventing them from using them that way in the first place, so new laws will have no effect on them whatsoever.

I consider quantum mechanics as the sophisticated and good sense of humor our creator has, since it is something that you think you know and all of a sudden you realize that you are once again where you just started
Thank you. That was very informative and easy to follow considering the complexity of the topic.

THANK YOU!! I at least understand the BASICS of Quantum Mechanics and I deeply appreciate you breaking it down for me in an easily mentally digestible way.
Subscribed. Brilliant video, very informative and easy(to an extent) to understand, even for someone like me. Keep them coming, I'm looking forward to catching up on your other videos.
Rhodri Williams this makes me really happy - it was a balancing act making sure there was enough content in the video for it to be a meaningful explanation and at the same time ensuring it was simple enough to understand within a few viewings :)
It would be nice to know how the entanglement experiment was done. Could you animate this experiment as you have animated the double slit experiment?
Thank you! For not putting some spooky music in the background. It honestly helps take in and digest the information
I've seen a lot of videos that explain physics. Whether it is Quantum Mechanics, or the Cosmos, or the Theory of Relativity, I have never seen a better and more understandable teaching of physics. This video compiles and makes understandable what would normally take many years of research. I've heard it said that the mark of a genius is to be able to take that which is complicated and present it in a way that the average person can understand. This video reaches that mark.
6:50 I'm sure that someone has thought of this, but, could it be the detectors that are causing the change in the interference pattern? Maybe an electromagnetic or some other type of force?
don't you think it is weird that it is always detected in the same spot when observed if there are actually probabilities of it being in different spots when not observed? Seems linear/preset.
It's not a magic (kind of). You have to interact with electron when you want to know something about it (detectors). And when you interact with electron, its superposition/wave function will collapse.
I agree. I have been thinking the same thing!
You my friend have just won the Nobel science award
I as a 13 year old always asked myself about Quantum mechanics, and I had a feeling that there were smaller particles than protons electrons and neutrons, this, this is by far the best video I've seen about Quantum mechanics, and I've did a massive research since 2014.

Well in my language we call it Atomic Fusion... Eh I tried my best... Thanks for correcting me!
Taking your lessons one at a time,
I just discovered my love for quantum physics and then I jammed your page, perfect.
Three days ago if you told me I'd even search out physics,talk more loving it, I'd have really given you a smirk and a long 'i hate' physics epistle.
It takes a smart person to present a difficult topic simply yet accurately. This you have done, with a vengeance. Many thanks.
This is indeed a very explanatory and precise content about "Quantum Mechanics". Thanks LondonCityGirl for uploading this video.
Did you just say that they’re always in a superposition, but when we try to analyze them they collapse it?! What are they intelligent?!
David Choate that is the point they are intelligent 🤓
So does this give a new meaning to "Intelligent Design"?
particles are just shy. they don't like to be watched.

The wave functions is disrupted.
Best video I've seen so far explaining QM !!! Wonderful !!!
This might be the most interesting thing I have ever heard about in my life.
Finally a video that explains everything simply and clearly! Thank you so much! I don't understand the other teaching vids out there. Why do they love making our minds suffer!
i think this is the best overall explanation about quantum mechanics video i have ever seen, thank you for the hard work!
Thanks for watching and leaving such a great comment 😁
@@LondonCityGirl Yes, and many agree, as do I. Already watched several video's that left me without a clue. I heard the words, but somehow they didn't connect.
And here you come, using the same words, but now show how they are connected. You are an awesome teacher!!
This is by far the best explanation of the basic idea that I've seen.
This is the best video i ever saw about Quantum mechanics
Very well explained. Great job!
Absolutely amazing video, I'd love to see more more videos in quantum mechanics and physic theories.
yes, there will be more to come this year :)
I def wasn't expecting the part on teleportation at the end! Great vid. :)
Great video, she explained everything so well and easy to digest for the average person. Thank you.
Can someone please explain to me i what the "observation of the electrons" specifically means? Which method did the scientists use to detect the electron? I mean how can the fact that the detector is on affect the wave/particles? I was interpreting this as a sort of perception limitation that meant humans could only perceive the electrons as particles and only infer their wave behaviour, but it doesnt seem to be that way, you seem to say the electron literally changes its behaviour when it is being observed, so i must understand what "being observed" specifically means.
Thanks for the amazing video, im mindblown, an excellent introduction to quantum physics :)
Awesome video. Would recommend to anybody who is not specialized in physics but just curious
NakedMan Brilliant :D That's squarely the target audience so I'm pleased you feel this way.
Sometimes i'm so obvious it's hurts =D.
Many worlds theory :- ''anything that can happen must happen''
Me:- Happy that I have understood something
