      I've been to CERN, the tech is very antiquated. That is to say, all their computers and servers are, the actually LHC is of course state of art. But because they are so poor as an institute, they don't even store their own data on drives, but still use TAPES (Cheaper they say.)
      They send everything to partners for analysis, other universities.

    When I was informed the experiments at CERN were so cutting edge, that collisions photographed could be altered simply by a human seeing the action, , I was impressed with their cognizant disciplined ability, and the implication we know so little. So objectively we have concrete data that proves we radiate wavelength energies. Sometimes a person behind you across a big room is looking directly at you, you sense this " wavelength energies ", pivot in a fight or flight reaction and look exactly where you felt the threat, to find someone staring perhaps randomly, proving sight projects radiates energies and receives. And you personally have experienced this. Best wishes.

      @@kshaeta as a matter of fact, he was not taken seriously for a long time. Which is not unusual in the scientific community. It's a cutthroat world with a lot of skeptics (rightfully so). Higgs particle was initially referred to as the "Goddamn particle", because it was so goddamn hard to detect. To suggest that the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) was specifically built to prove existence of God is oversimplification. Indeed, it's an expensive machine - but its main purpose is to facilitate the research done in the field of particle physics and to form better understanding of fundamental building blocks of matter and the forces that interact between them. If you think $5Bn is a lot, you should look into how much the newer version (FCC - Future Circular Collider) will cost, and how long would the construction take?

    This isn't directly a story about particle physics, but more about CERN and the Internet.
    In the mid 1980s, I was a young, brash, and inexperienced IT guy. In 1983, I attended a lecture about early networking at a conference in Comox, British Columbia.
    One of the first lecturers was a middle aged woman, who looked like somebody's Ukranian babushka (describing me as "young, brash, and inexperienced" probably gives me more credit than I deserved). This woman gets up to the podium in front of an almost exclusively male geeks and starts to talk about her day job in particle physics at the University of British Columbia.
    Her normal day began with a 300 baud acoustic connection from UBC to a National Research Council of Canada computer in Ottawa. That computer had a 300 kb connection to a computer in Washington, DC. From there, she would make another 300 kb connection to a computer at CERN in Switzerland, where she would analyze data from the high energy physics experiments running there. There was no Internet, no TCP/IP, just 300 baud modem connections between computers.
    To a man (yes, we were all male IT geeks), we were agog at her story. I was too naive to fully appreciate the obstacles that this woman must have overcome to get to where she was in such a male dominated culture, but she was awesome!
    Looking at a history of UBC particle physics, I think that this might have been Dr. Anna Celler, but I cannot be certain. Nevertheless, she was one amazing babushka!

  • @jml_53
    @jml_53 7 месяцев назад +19

    Great video. I'm a lifelong physics geek. I appreciate the inside look at this incredible facility, and remember being very excited when they announced the discovery of the Higgs.
    I also remember when the US was planning the superconducting supercollider in the early 90s and was disappointed when it was dropped from the budget. We had Fermilab but clearly needed to go to the next level. CERN got us there, but now we are at a similar decision point.
    This time, I'm less convinced that we need the next step. What do we expect to find at higher energy? What would have more MASS?
    All of our previous colliders had pretty clear objectives. Fermi was built to search for the quarks; CERN was built for Higgs. They found them, but they had strong expectations that they would be found at these energies.
    We don't have predictions of particles with larger MASS (aside from supersymmetric particles that look increasingly unlikely). I also don't buy into the dark matter justification. There isn't any convincing theory that says dark matter will be made of high MASS particles. All of our experience says that particles like to live in low-energy ground states. Everything we create at high energy quickly decays. There isn't any reason to believe that dark matter has an unusually MASSive ground state. Nothing contradicts it, but this is a lot of money to spend without theoretical support.
    Similarly, the idea that we'll learn more about things we know about is true, but are we really just increasing our confidence and precision? Is there an upper limit to useful experiments? I feel we need more theory to guide investments that large.
    The idea that we can find dark matter rides on an assumption that it interacts with regular matter through something other than gravity. If not, we may never see it. The only reason we see neutrinos is because they have a weak force interaction. If they didn't, we wouldn't see them either. Higher energies won't necessarily enable us to see something that doesn't interact with matter. Conservation laws also likely preclude decays that cross the dark/ordinary matter boundary. You might need something that has a quantum number like 'dark charge' to balance things out and enable the creation of dark matter.
    There are lots of great opportunities to spend our limited basic research funding. I think finding/ explaining dark matter/energy are high priorities. I'm just not sure this is the best use of those funds right now. Despite how long it will take to plan and build the next one, I think we need to hold off for a bit.

    • @anonymes2884
      @anonymes2884 7 месяцев назад +1

      Actually, I think it's that "not knowing where to look next" that _might_ justify the FCC. Not sure if you're aware but the _first_ phase actually _isn't_ a higher energy LHC, it's a new and improved LEP (the LHC's precursor) which would be focused on generating and analysing W, Z and Higgs bosons. To me that actually seems like a reasonable prospect for finding new physics because the Higgs is, y'know, a bit weird :) (spin 0, various coupling types/strengths etc.) - looking at it in detail, at scale, for clear SM deviations could be fruitful.
      The higher energy LHC equivalent wouldn't be until phase 2, probably around the 2070s (but fair enough, a lot of the cost will surely be the tunnel itself and you need that for phase 1 - that could be an argument for a different build, a linear accelerator for instance). If we can _plan_ it cheaply enough then we should certainly be doing _that_ now IMO but otherwise hold off until LHC shutdown (currently 2035 ish) - there's still a further LHC upgrade to come before then, maybe those results will suggest a new direction.

    14:07 - the headline about "a massive waste of money" comes from people who seem to think that when we spend money it gets piled up into a bonfire and burned. No, it goes back into the economies of the countries involved. It gets collected again as taxes, goes into savings accounts, gets invested and recirculated. The number also seems large but only because we're stupidly impressed by lots of zeroes. $22 billion is about the same as the annual budget of NASA, which is only about the 23rd largest US federally funded organisation. The US spends a similar amount each year on railway pensions.

    I've been seeing shorts of yours for a while, but this was my first time watching a long form video of yours and I wanted to echo what a lot of these comments are saying. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this :). I've always been curious what CERN's hydron collider was for, but never quite understood it no matter who explained it to me. This is the first time I feel like I can actually somewhat grasp what it's for. Now, whenever someone brings up the topic of the hydron collider and why it exists I'll always suggest this video.
    I also highly sympathize with the message of this video (your whole channel it seems). I do not understand science, but I love the trials and tribulations of trying to. I love the unending journey towards understanding our existence and the universe around us. I feel like we will never be bored because there is so much to learn, and that pure joy of understanding just a little more about the cosmos is reason enough to fund these awe-inspiring monuments of science. But the fact that understanding the world around us leads to better ways to take care of ourselves and others is even more reason to undertake these beautifully ambitious projects.

    The problem is that the LHC showed no "new physics". It proved the existance of the Higgs boson, but that was a must and a promise by particle physicists who built the LHC. But beyond that nothing new was found, we still have the same open questions as before. We badly need a hint where exactly to search for "new physics". That is why also physicists ask if simply building a bigger machine with higher energies to clueless look around is a good idea.

      Indeed. Many physicists expected the LHC to find super-symmetric particles and it hasn't. So the main use of a bigger collider would be looking for super-symmetric particles more massive than the LHC is able to investigate and a perfectly valid question to ask is, "OK, but if _that_ doesn't find them either, _then_ what ? Just build an _even bigger_ accelerator ??".
      The difficulty is, at what point do we basically accept that super-symmetry isn't right and a bigger accelerator isn't going to help ? Plenty are saying we're already there. So we need a new direction to look in and right now, none are particularly forthcoming.
