This is the reason why directors of sci-fi movies just tag the word 'quantum' when then can't explain a situation 😂😂😂 Heisenberg's uncertainty principle would be a great choice for upcoming days
Try looking at the PBS Nova series, presented by Brian Greene, called "The Fabric of the Cosmos". It consists of 4 episodes, each about 50 mins long. The one on Quantum Mechanics is very good. It is available on DVD & was made in 2010 / 2011. Hope that helps. Paul C.
Great series of lectures helping to bridge the gap for those working on understanding the qualitative and mathematical aspects of QM and relativity (who wish they were mathematicians). This is RUclips at its very best
Sir,Brian,I am writing this from Sri Lanka ,being a student of A/L grade 12. I am so long anticipating to have found a person like you ,who has an in comparable broad knowledge about physics and psychological physics like quantum mechanics which goes deep inside to the secrets in mind .I am so interest in unveiling the truths behind science which sharpens our perspective about us,our life, our mind and the physical and beyond physical world. today onward I would like to begin my journey with you as one of my teachers and advisers and as one of friends (i know I may be 50 years young to you as i am 17 years old to now) ...i am so eager to untangle my physics questions from you ?my first question I forward you is that Can you explain what is a wave function? (i am asking this because in this video you are explaining quantum physics) does wave function correspond to orbital ,three dimensional space which has a highest probability of finding an electron??
Basically it comes from experiment(black body radiation) for which max Planck had to calculate a constant that arise when he considers energy to be proportional to frequency of particle.
Dear Prof. Brian Greene thanks for your candid approach and initiatives; can you gives us some insight on what tensors are and its relevance on general relativity development?
Question: at 18:00 Brian says that it's not like flipping a coin (where you lack information). Why not? In other words, why do we have to assume that superposition is occurring? (for example, the particle's relative position as it goes through the slit might affect the outcome and explain the probability if we understood it better... or some other effect we don't know about)
Dear Brian Greene, Have physicists laid down the fundamental foundation for string theory, or do the principles in string Theory still need to be stated? And do you think there will be a measuring device able to measure such small strings and dimensions?
A wavicle is a quantum particle. I like to visualize it as a pulse in a wave function. The wave being a function of energy in the field that it exists and the particle's edge beginning where the wavicle noticeably begins to increase in amplitude and ends in amplitude. I say noticeably because the field is fluctuating everywhere in very small amounts so the edges of the wavicle are unclear. Does this sound like a workable model?
If world is just quantum probability, how come i can watch this video than? Correct me if I'm wrong but we never see protons and neutrons, things are the way Mr. Green described. Why do we see distance, would be more natural if light could extend picture as a box, so we would always look at things as staring directly into a wall. Because light are waves of energy, spreading from their source, those waves extend before picture of an object reach our eyes. But this is not how we see, we can't observe electrons, our eyes are electrons where tinny packets of EM vibration hit light sensitive cones in our eyes. This is how i imagine collapse of electron into a single dot, electric wave hit my eye cones, electron is converted into a electric pulse and they all merge in my head into a consistent illusion of reality. Good video, they should teach this stuff in primary school all around the globe.
Could discuss the roots of the Planck's constant. How plank discovered it. Which experiment he used to discover it. Why max plank is the first to revolutionise the field of quantum mechanics.
Where the probability spikes to 1 (or near 1) is a point of resonance. Working with electronics and radios tuning a radio (or for that matter a control loop) the spike is where the resonance occurs or called a 'pole' in the controls world where the feedback is feeding back on itself generating a resonance (in the Laplace world). So using that model a wave collapse is a resonance point in probability. I have to think about that one.
Complex numbers are awesome. I study geometric algebra, an alternativ approach to linear algebra and complex numbers, very beautiful and visual approach to it.
Probability is a concept wrapped in a formula used to explain what we cannot yet, for certain, specify (for the record, I want credit for that statement... 😎). I dislike probability, as it only tells us the likelihood of where a particle should be, but I get it... I am science guy searching for absolutes, and probablties make me "itchy"... *This* is why I love quantum physics so much.....
Hlo prof. Brian I have a general question that in general the wave function being described by complex in nature and I think if this is true then only the interpretation given max born seems to understandable and my question is why description of quantum system we need complex It will be very helpful if you could resolve this confusion
Professor Greene, did the the large hadron collider in Europe proved that the fragments of the collision particles moved to extra dimension ? Thank you
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I think particles travel in the trajectory of waves like this and take position when measured.. Hence, both particle and wave like behaviour.. What do you think?
I've been learning differential geometry lecture series that the wave function is not a complex-valued function over the reals. Idea that Psi: R^d -> C. But what if Psi is a section of C-vector bundle over R^d? Locally, the wave function looks like a function over R^d. What is the bundle of interest when dealing with arbitrary changes of coordinates? Of course the frame bundle. If you have a frame bundle, you can establish a connection on the frame bundle. If you have a connection, you can define a covariant derivative on the sections of any associated bundle. Then you have a covariant derivative acting on the wave function. sections of such an associated bundle are represented as C-valued functions, not on the base space but on the total space of the principal bundle. So rather than saying Psi is a section of this associated bundle with fiber C, Psi is a complex-valued function, not on R^d but on the total space of the principle bundle.
The thing I don't get is, assuming I spit out an electron once per second, and run the experiment for several hours, how does the first electron interfere with the last?
Hello Sir...I've a question regarding photoelectric effect...It goes like this...if we take a metal piece placed in high magnitude electric field (high enough to ionize it) then this high electric field can viewed as varying with as cosine function with such a low frequency that it's almost constant...then it would mean that low frequency EM radiation could as well cause photoelectric phenomenon...Please Explain...
Can someone explain to me, what qualifies a measurement? If you have a interaction between two systems can you predict if its a measurement that leads to the collapse or if it "just" leads to a entanglement of the systems?
If anything, we can probably say that probabilities is probably the nature of reality. But as soon as we observe or measure anything, then reality is no longer probabilistic, as it is what you measured or observed. In other words, since quantum physics is purely dealing with probabilities, quantum physics is just as likely to be not probable at all.
Well, i think there is much more into it. QM wave is an imaginary wave. It has to be so if you want to escape from negative probability. But the probability wave is nevertheless a real wave defined by the oscillatory unit (i) squared, that gives you negative 1, meaning that its polarity oscillates in the instance of its squaring. What is so exiting about a QM wave is that though it's imaginary it's also a real one and the purpose of complex conjugates is to return the real numbers.
In fact, the interference phenomenon was first discovered by Hudgens in 1700s as well as quantization of the classical waves depending on the boundary conditions.
I respectfully offer a different view of the double slit experiment which should be called the triple barrier experiment. Matter is basically energy and any matter "particle" is an energy bundle. In this specific experiment the "particle" rides the ripples, caused by the triple barriers, in the expansion of spacetime. The "particles" are decoupled from "time" since the ripples in spacetime are always there. The "particles" can pass the triple barrier in groups or singly with much "time" separation and still produce the interference pattern. This discussion does not include the measurement anomaly problem.
If the data displayed a wave, and it behaved probabilistically, wan't it a bit self-evident/tautological when Max Born introduced the "probability wave"?
I'm no scholar, but I think this goes back to Einsteinian physics of spacetime. If NOTHING changes, has time elapsed (introduce: entropy...)? And when you start looking at time dilation, I think that they're intricatly connected (although, I despise time dilation, as it doesn't make logical sense in the physical world). Maybe, restate your question for added clarity?
I'm fairly certain collapse happens. One cannot get fractional charge whenever measured... The many worlds interpretation may have muddied the water, since there seems to be confusion.
I have a question. If .8 repeating doesn’t equal .9 repeating then how come if u just changed to system where u didn’t have base ten and say made it a new number and after .9 came .z repeating then .9 repeating wouldn’t be equal to .z even tho .z would be equal to 1.0 repeating (repeating zero)
What if the universe is not expanding but matter is shrinking ? And gravity is the the effect left behind where matter used to be. The cosmic speed limit could then be the maximum rate of collapse..... just a thought
Elaborate on your interpretation of the absurdity of Schroedingers cat. Is the cat situation trying to say "hey look what nonsense this equation leads us to"?

I also emailed you about 3 years ago but I got no response, as know you may be busy with your research.... Thnx, & love you!
Can someone answer me this? Einstein say that inside a black hole T=0. But can someone living inside a black hole say that one year is the time that takes his house to grow from 1000 solar mases to 1001? And that one month is the time that takes to do a full spin? And one week is the time that takes to travel from one side to the other in his photone awesome invisible car?

Brian really need s podcast. This is kind of one but he needs at least a weekly podcast talking with other mathematicians about mathematics. I'd listen to that!
Here is a weird idea What if an electron is only an electron when it is bound with another object (for example a barrier); if it is moving in space it is never an electron it is something else which is smeared out but as soon as it touches an object (a firing gun; a barrier, any other observing object) it all of a sudden transforms into electron. Simply put; an electron traveling in space with no barrier is not an electron it is something else it just gets mixed with the field(s) that exist naturally - higgs, electromagnetic field, etc... (something like a quark?) Hey I know this is a dumb idea but who knows right? ;)
Only parts of the universe that are very far away disapear so fast from us, that light can no more reach us. Therefore, "our" universe has a horizon of about 45×10^9 lightyears, if something moves beyond that mark, we will never get into contact with. Finally, we will see nothing else than our local galaxy group.
Probabilities could be the left over remnant of the Big Bang just like the left over heat in the universe. We cannot travel back in time to our own past, but it may be possible to travel back in time to all probable alternative pasts. If local space-time was like a tuning fork vibrating after the Big Bang then if you touch it to measure it stops collapsing the probability wave.
I understand what you mean by this but we are constantly collapsing the wave function just by being awake and aware and not "touching " ANYTHING. In our daily lives the wave function is always collapsed and we're not "touching" it with any special measuring apparatus. We are just awake and aware and the wave function collapses.
@@Sharperthanu1 Plants do this with shape of their leaves covering every possible path of a light probability wave. Quantum probabilities are used in transistors in computer chips. Many electronic companies have made billions over many decades. A recently started company invested billions in these new ideas about physics.
It's hard to train mind to understand things are not material solids and there is no empty space between them, it's those magic quantum turtles all the way down, before things became so small they melt and disapear into a void. If nothing is solid, here and now, if things are always in motion and can nothing can stand still, not even for a brief moment because there's no place to be there, than only miracle is why we don't see any miracles in our lives.
You can't prove mathematically that the laws will be the same, it is just something we observe in the physical world. Einstein used this as a postulate in his special theory of relativity, which means it is just an axiom in his theory. That means he can't prove it, it is just an assumption he makes to formulate his theory.
The observer is the driver of the wave function. And that’s going to be a big problem for materialism. It opens the door to the possibilities of all the things science has ridiculed for decades, UFOs/aliens, psychokinesis, remote viewing, quantum healing, portals, stories that talk about imagination, books and movies that talk about alternate worlds, Star Trek, The Twilight Zone... I can go on and on. This has always been a paradigm shift that science is not ready to entertain politically.
A single episode like this is enough to think about whole day, in these desperate time.
Thank you Prof Brian.
The sound of your voice describing the foundations of our existence is comforting during this time of isolation. Thanks for doing this.

Are the probabilités discrete or if they are continuous and if continuous to how many decimal places can the electron be in?
So the world is filled with waves and particules surf on them at the speed of light. Is there a dual nature or just waves we don’t know about ?

Why all laws are same in all inertial frames
You can't prove mathematically that the laws will be the same, it is just something we observe in the physical world. Einstein used this as a postulate in his special theory of relativity, which means it is just an axiom in his theory. That means he can't prove it, it is just an assumption he makes to formulate his theory.
They are also the same in accelerated frames in GR
@@frun Yes, you're right, and that is also a very important principle/postulate that Einstein needed to formulate GR.
This still doesn't tell me which form the psi function can have, what type(s) of function it can be.

The observer is the driver of the wave function. And that’s going to be a big problem for materialism. It opens the door to the possibilities of all the things science has ridiculed for decades, UFOs/aliens, psychokinesis, remote viewing, quantum healing, portals, stories that talk about imagination, books and movies that talk about alternate worlds, Star Trek, The Twilight Zone... I can go on and on. This has always been a paradigm shift that science is not ready to entertain politically.
