  • The biggest surprise of discovering the Higgs boson? That there were no surprises. Gian Giudice talks us through a problem in theoretical physics: what if the Higgs field exists in an ultra-dense state that could mean the collapse of all atomic matter? With wit and charm, Giudice outlines a grim fate -- and why we shouldn't start worrying just yet. (Filmed at TEDxCERN.)

    What a cool guy. Usually this quantum physics stuff goes way over my head, but he actually made it fairly understandable. The idea that our known universe could be just one of many was the most mind blowing notion of his entire talk for me.

    • @carnictus23
      @carnictus23 5 лет назад +5

      Sahand It's more likely that the 'Big Bounce' theory is real than the multiverse, that there have been countless universes before this one, where gravity has overtaken the expansion of the universe and caused it to collapse in on itself, sort of like how a big star supernovas. The outward force no longer counters the inwards force sufficiently, so in a fraction of a second the entire star collapses to a tiny size and 'bounces' back out, creating a supernova. This is likely what could have happened in our universe, and maybe after billions, trillions of universes this one is just perfect for life. The conditions change, but the laws of physics stay the same. The only way to disprove this theory is if humans survive until the end of the universe and see what causes it (which we definitely will not lol).

      On an amazing ride to death. We probably won’t live long to figure out what’s going on with the Universe. However, I’m quite sure the multi verse theory is true. Think about it this way, they say a bunch of mass condensed into a point as big as a peach, and it expanded to create our universe, well what makes you think ALL the mass that exists out there (including in other universes) was in reach to condense? Meaning there could be tons and tons and tons and tons of universes. Possibly infinite. Then imagine all the universes as planets, some could be bigger some could be smaller. But ultimately, they all have gravity and can revolve around each other. Therefor collisions are inevitable. And there is actual evidence to believe our universe can be colliding into another. There’s this spot in the universe where there’s just nothing there. It’s quite literally missing galaxies. And scientists believe it may be due to our universe colliding with another.

    The sand dune example wonderfully complements the anthropic principle in explaining why values seem tuned.

    • @NikolaosSkordilis
      @NikolaosSkordilis 7 лет назад +8

      Or it's much simpler than that, and the values are "tuned" because if they weren't none of us would be here to observe them. In other words the values were not tuned for us (and life by and large) to emerge, but rather life emerged because the values were appropriate for it to emerge. We wouldn't be able to apply our confirmation bias by conjuring ideas such as "anthropic principle" either :)

    • @trefod
      @trefod 7 лет назад +8

      That is basically the anthropic principle.

    • @KpxUrz
      @KpxUrz 6 лет назад +7

      I never liked the argument that values are "tuned because otherwise we would not be here to witness such tuning". That thinking puts the cart before the horse. It does nothing to explain why values are "tuned". I also do not agree with the hypothesis that there are infinitely many universes, where almost all of them have "UNtuned" physical values, where everything is pure chaos and madness. Why even suggest such a thing? We have sample size ONE, as universes go, and the apparent stability of it exists only because so many physical values and forces are finely tuned beyond our wildest comprehension. I will agree that life emerged because the tuned values were conducive to it, but still we get nowhere in explaining WHY all values are so remarkably finely tuned.

    • @HMan2828
      @HMan2828 6 лет назад +7

      The suggestion comes from the fact that the chances to end up with the particular set of constants we have right now in this universe are astronomical. That necessarily implies our universe is just one RANDOM sample in an ongoing unknown meta process that by chance produced the universe we are in now. So, the mere fact we exist implies either that A) MANY other universes necessarily exists with different parameters or B) our universe is all that there is, but then how did it begin in the first place? The current best guess as to how the big bang occurred is quantum fluctuations, but then that must imply that quantum fluctuations are common, and in some cases produce events like the big bang, so that in turn implies that many universes must exist.

      nathan GQ
      Not *_all_* by any means, but I have formally studied some nuclear physics - first as a reactor operator in the Navy, and later in college. And I informally researched quantum tunneling for a science fiction novel I have been trying to write. I had the idea for something I called the "Quantum Probability Drive" after reading one of Brian Greene's books. It was based on the fact that every atom exists where it does only as a matter of probability. Any atom could suddenly exist on the other side of the universe, but the probability is infinitesimally small. So I postulated the idea that, like a rigged roulette wheel, we might be somehow able to influence that probability in such a way that, within the field, we can make the probability of all atoms existing at the start point almost nothing, and designate a new location where they most probably would exist. In effect, the whole ship instantly moves anywhere in the universe that you want. To make the idea seem reasonable, I had to learn something about quantum tunneling.
      So at least I could grasp the basic concepts.

    what this Speaker/Professor is saying proves it, it's a sound concept already, that we should examine it. Thanks to the confirmation of the Higgs field existing, it's cool that we can now think of the multiverse theory as yet another interesting perspective, more or less concisely. Given what a unified framework would be able to represent about what we know about the bits and pieces of reality, we really need this line of inquiry.

    • @1invag
      @1invag 8 лет назад +5

      personally the thought of the fine tuning in the universe has never required any explanation other than.... of course it's balanced as it is, not because God did it but because it would be impossible for us to be here if it wasn't, we arose because the conditions allowed it, the conditions were random no God involved just chance but once the conditions were set life in our form was inevitable and just a matter of time, it's probably true that there's an unfathomably large number of other universes out there where the conditions are slightly different where we could never possibly come into being.... I'd say were simply the result of probability... and the passage of time... but in an infinite multiverse probability doesn't even come into it... it was inevitable.. even a God couldn't stop it

    • @SauravRaj-ib2yo
      @SauravRaj-ib2yo 7 лет назад

      No, what he says is actually 100% accurate. All life needs to carry out life processes to exist, which needs energy. All the matter is made of elements, and elements were created in supernova from Hydrogen atoms and thus their decay can provide you energy. The hydrogen atom was created sometime after the big bang.
      In 10^100 years (the time he said when Ultra dense higgs field will quantum tunnel into existence) the energy of the hydrogen atom, and all that makes it will have been long depleted. Read about the heat death of the Universe. Also the BIG RIP.
      When a scientist does not know, they will say they do not know. They do not lie. When they are not sure, they will say they are not sure. Even the discovery of the Higgs Boson was asserted with the accuracy of sigma6. Which means there is 1 in 1000000 chance that they made a mistake and it was not the higgs boson that they discovered but an error in data.

    • @mikeyoung9810

      Did you read my full comment? Give a specific point you feel was wrong. You think all life does not require energy? Elements were not created in supernova? What? Give me something.
      Also, they were completely honest about the fact that they knew very little about stuff 50 years ago. 90-110 years ago, was the situation you are talking about. But Quantum theory and relativity changed everything.
      Another thing, just because someone was wrong before does not mean they are wrong now. And these are not the same scientists, who were arrogant about their knowledge. Those were different scientists, and they are all dead now. Can't paint everyone with the same brush.Mike Young

    • @figa5567
      @figa5567 7 лет назад +2

      Mike, the problem with your assertion is that it implies that no knowledge is ever actual knowledge, and that everything will, in time, be proven wrong.
      It's one of those unfalsifiable claims.... it enters the realm of philosophy. We can only make decisions based on what we know and on what we have proven... even though something in the future might deepen our understanding of something, I don't think there's been a case where solid, proven theories were dismantled, because that would imply the evidence is wrong.
      If you still claim that, given infinite time, all theories will be proven wrong in place from new theories... who can say you're wrong?
      But also, what use is it?

    My why question is this.
    Why do we still discuss virtual particles in terms of mass?
    Would it not be more accurate as well enlightening to describe them in terms of frequency?
    The higher the frequency = more or less mass depending the shape of the wave forms.
    Which brings about my next question,
    If we are experiencing a world where every "thing" is in a constant state of vibration, infinitely giving off its own set of waves interfering with other "things" too giving off waves of vibration.
    Then would we not be literally swimming in an ocean of pure vibration?
    What is this vibration?
    What is it interacting with?
    This passive intermodulation seems to replicate the very structure of brain waves in neuroscience.
    Are we literally swimming in our own subconscious?
    All mystical orders around this world seem to proclaim the same thing that String Theory suggests.

      You are correct in your explanation that Sound needs a medium to propagate.
      Albeit, empty Space is not empty, this has been known in many forms, the ancients as well as Mr. Nikola Tesla called this medium "The Aether"
      Quite literally vacuum Energy! Also known as quark potential Energy.
      This Energy is known to exist via a Quantum Gluon Field of Three primary oscillations in harmony.
      Differ any of these and they effect the rest in result creating or morphing into a different element entirely.
      This process is known as quantum morphogenic resonance.
      These quantum fluctuations in SpaceTime oscillate in such a way that you will never reach absolute Zero. .
      Sound does not only exist within the audible spectrum.
      Only pure Vibration.
      This or any vibration or change of any sort, creates waves that go on beyond SpaceTime forever.
      . This is no Where near the bottom of this rabbit hole though, No.
      It has been known since the days of Einstein as well as ancient Rishis that Space and Time can not be thought of as separate.
      This fabric of Space-Time is in fact entirely observer dependent.
      All of Space-Time divides it's Self infinitely, yet remains Whole and complete.
      How many decimals can you fit between zero and One?
      Next question, where do you experience Space-Time?
      If Gravity is described as the result of curvature in Four dimensioal SpaceTime and you experience this fabric in the Mind,
      What is it but the very Conscious Breath that stitches all things together like an invisible thread?
      Gravity too is Sound.
      This has recently been verified to exist between the audible frequency range of 30-150Hz.

      What do you calculate if all there is,
      is You?
      The only problem with this question is it can not be asked properly, to define You it would then be I.
      Albeit, whom or what shall we say, is this I?
      Can it be thought of as anything separate than You?
      Surely, the SpaceTime interval between events would justify such blasphemy, yet here we are, within another infinite loop of madness that is the very Self observing the Self inseparable from the object that too is an experience of this Self.
      Then we laugh into eternity.
      When you boil it down to Truth, what is the only Truth you have ever Truly known but your very Self?
      Is this a Dream?
      All mystic traditions around this world seem to come to the same conclusion.
      Now Science is on that very same page with the Unified Field Theory.

    I believe we're not done when we die; in addition to matter and energy we are imbued with the power to encode (store meaning), you don't get this third element without mind. If matter transverses in quantum, if energy transverses through quantum, it would make sense to me that meaning (or mind) also transverses time. Your thoughts?

    This guy knows more, because he can explain things in more plain, more life-like terms. Our science might always have to lie on assumptions we can't be sure are true as we put them in the formulas and theories. That why I dont like science to be a religion. But the interesting thoughts like this guy comes up with are very much welcome.

    The multiverse is an intellectually lazy approach to discussing the precision and structure of our universe. Instead of addressing the implications of a universe that is so unexpectedly finely tuned for the existence of life, many physicists have basically constructed a philosophy (because make no mistake, it is not science) to address the absurd improbability of such a universe arising by chance. Not until the scientific community sheds its own internal and deeply entrenched bias will they begin to make progress in a field that has been largely stagnate for years.

      String theory may shed light on derivations that would tell us why the constants in physics are what they are.
      Consequently the math may only work with 10 dimensions of space and 1 dimension of time.
      I wouldn't say the multiverse is intellectual laziness but a byproduct or necessity of string theory in its current state.
      As for the science being bias or whatever that's about I'd like to point out that physics is not like it used to be. The type of experiments Newton did in his time were pretty cheap. These days it takes billions of dollars to perform the type of experiments necessary to support the types of tests required by these large and/or small scale hypothesis.
      Consequentially everyone is worried about their reputation since it's basically impossible for a private individual to do independent research and perform his own cheap unique experiments from hypothesis. Or at least cheap experiments that can be done are becoming insanely scarce.

      I totally agree. Time and time again they conclude that there's a one billionth of 1% chance of a universe with our structure forming (not collapsing or ripping in plank-seconds). They'll support any idea of how it came to be regardless of how silly it is before acknowledging that maybe just maybe it did not happen by chance.

    The universe exists as a constant projection of God. The universe is literally sung into existence by God. If God were to stop singing, the universe would cease to be.

    Well, as the speaker mentioned, the Universe is expanding, and as far as we know, we can pick two spots between which more space is created than lightspeed allows to travel in the same amount of time. So this phase transition if it occures, will most likely just be blown-away/localized by ever expanding space fabric.
