As I'm seeking employment as a fact checker: yours was wrong with the 2010 Hawking radiation detection. it's believed it could have been Cerenkov radiation instead. Also it wasn't from a black hole obviously but from a complex prism-laser structure that may not really be the best representation of reality. It was also never followed up upon so it's also technically fringe science. It's a fringe science inception. Fringeception
Hello 🤩 wonderful person, Anton! It's good to see you here! I would love to see a collaboration with you and other RUclips hosts!! We love Joe Scott too, and many other RUclipsrs. How about some crossovers? Anything to round out our understanding.... it takes a village.
Thank you for being the one person (that I've come across) on the entire internet, that always makes 100 percent sense. Especially when it comes to topics like these.
"Fringe science" doesn't mean "pseudo-science," it just means outside of the mainstream interpretation of existing evidence, but still following accepted scientific practice.. Pseudo-science is something that presents itself as science but doesn't follow accepted practices for science inquiry - so using it with a real scientist is a seriously offensive slander.
All science is a model,( read fAke) but it's the best we got now. Accepted practice just means we can extract use from the idea not that it is the complete truth. To say otherwise makes science a religious dogma. Which I think is your stricture
@@billrussell7672 accepted practice means they follow the scientific method, which is less biased than any other known. If you call that a dogma then you're freaking ignorant and probably flat earther.
@@Chizzoide so how long have you been in science cult? You need to free your mind that your science god is always right, most of the time it resembles blood letting and patent medicine. . Take gravity for instance , if modern science had not scrapped æther when we stumbled upon the casmir effect we would have left forward 100 years finding subatomic gravity and working out æther repulsion from mass. Science is down right stupid at times chucking the tub out with the baby and keeping the water. And the wholesale falure of electrodynamics Therory. Then the double slit fraud, On and on science is the Stokes monkey on display. You need to get this one thing in your head. They don't want regular people to understand the big picture, science is poisoned with relativity to keep the magic of knowledge a secret. In truth you have to be a savant or a polymath to see thru the curtain that the Wizzard Oz is just a ordinary men who look at extrodan with simple eyes and simple minds
Actually this pretty typical for a 6.1 funding level of this kind of purely theoretical academic research. It will increase if it progresses to the 6.2 level (applied research). If you didn’t get that then google ‘DOD research activity funding codes’
Exactly the point, while it is interesting enough to take a look, it's not interesting enough to throw any serious money at it. If the little investment pans out, no big loss (relatively by federal budget standards). 1.3M is peanuts to the federals. But if the sifting reveals a gold strike, then they'd throw more money at it. As it stands now with QI and EMDrive, it looks like they considered the sifting to have panned out.
It's impossible to observe hawking radiation (coming from stellar mass or larger black holes) because of the heat of the CMB, we need to wait a couple of billion years before direct observation even becomes possible
@@mvn4844 exactly. There is no way to directly observe it as firstly we have no way to detect it and even if we could they would be lost in the cloud of other signals and radiation being output.

0:35 there is strong evidence that many early cultures knew the world was round prior to Eratosthenes. He was just the first person to give a "scientific" and relatively accurate estimate of the earth's circumference.
Others may have guessed that the Earth is round, but Erastosthenes proved it by calculating the circumference. In science, proving matters. Guessing doesn't.
@@trashaccount8859I read somewhere that the Egyptians knew the earth was round because they discovered the length of shadows for two identical buildings was different at the same time of the day. (They were separated and communication was through bonfires).
Maybe in our lifetime, if DARPA sponsored experiments would be succesful. See also the most recent McCulloch's paper: "Propellant-less Propulsion from Quantised Inertia". He might be our real Zefram Cochrane. :)
Its frustrating too! But at the same time I think it gives a lot of space to maybe explain certain unknown phenomena... I imagine there could possibly be an entire dark universe right inside of ours with its own set of rules, structures, perhaps even intelligent life
creator 44 i dont think so. Its interesting to think about, but since we share gravity with dark matter, and gravity falls off with the square of the distance which can only exist in 3 dimensions. Another complimentary universe would mean 6 dimensions- gravity would fall off far faster than it does currently.
Better than being interested and trying to fix global warming and poverty, humans were always gonna self destruct, its a losing battle, so why not at least take interest in something cool and smart than dealing with idiots in the short time we have to love
Fact check: erotosthenes calculateed the circumference of the earth in the 3rd century bc, not 100 bc. But you said that before you brought in your handsome fact checker.
@@bulwinkle Indeed. He calculated its size, which is amazing, but that it was round was already long, LONG established. There is no known civilisation where we know that they thought the earth was flat.
Directions are relative to the person/location. Most languages use what we consider common directions, relative to the location/person giving them. But there are other ways to give directions, which can be hard to wrap our minds around, in a couple other, simpler languages (less complex; fewer ways to describe things, for instance). More advanced civilizations use more defining words, but, directions are still mostly relative. ...so, “up” is something away from what we stand upon, and assumes gravity...up is away from a center of gravity. Ergo, if one is out in space where there is no gravity pulling an object off-course (at which point, it’s going “down” towards a center of gravity), it could theoretically keep going (like Voyager?)....but loses its “up-ness”...it only is going “up” as it leaves earth; once beyond gravitational pull of earth, or other celestial bodies, it’s not going “up” anymore...it can be described as going “away”. But from the perspective of the thing traveling, it is simply moving from or to something else.
Dark matter and dark energy have always smacked of "Here there be monsters." I've always felt like they were just place holders until we finally understood the reality of the situation. I get the feeling that two hundred years from now, people will laugh at the concepts. As for saying QI is fringe science, well, plate tectonics was fringe science too for a hundred years.
You are correct, Sir. However, it will not take 200 years. For the frequently wretched insects that we are, however, we're doing just fine. The 1% of reality we are able to observe, measure, and accurately describe is truely impressive for such a limited species. Don't you think? After all, a few generations ago, a knapped flint ax was the cutting edge of technology.
That's how they knew to keep looking for the Higgs Boson. The math didn't work, so they figured there must be a particle they couldn't find. It took a while, but they found it, exactly where it was predicted. So this means they had a placeholder to make the math work for all the other particles, then found the Higgs once technology advanced enough. I don't have a problem with them using a placeholder until they discover what it is.
Fact check: virtual particles are NOT when a particle/antipartice pair are created. When that happens, those are REAL particles. Virtual particles are instances where the math kinda needs a "particle" but which are doing impossible things for such a particle. PBS Spacetime did a terrific episode on this.
The particle/anti-particle pair is analogous to describing an electron orbiting an atom instead of describing it as being located in a probability cloud. Modes of the quantum field are scattered due to the curvature of space-time at the event horizon. Frequencies longer than the radius of the event horizon are scattered outward while the rest are sucked inward. This creates a vacuum level lower than that of empty space inside and thus reduces the mass of the black hole. The frequency is tied to the Schwarzchild radius and is precisely why microscopic black holes emit so much more hawking radiation; their radius is much smaller and thus emits much higher levels of energy. Shorter wave lengths (eg. x-rays) are more energetic than longer waves (eg. radio waves). See that PBS video Leo mentioned. It is excellent.
You just blew my frickin mind, @@lg186282 . Random question (armchair space nerd here), do black holes... move? And would they experience this 'Unruh Radiation" and the Casimir effect as explained in the video?
@@MaurerPower846 You are too kind. Black holes spin rapidly and orbit their parent galaxy as any other star. In Stephen Hawking's paper on "Hawking Radiation", "Unruh Radiation" is part of the equation. The really cool thing is without a "Theory of Everything" Hawking's equations is only one possible solution. There are other proposed solutions for "Hawking Radiation", but they all have the same result; emission from black holes of photons with their wavelength equal to the "Schwarzchild Radius". Incidentally, I am an armchair physicist. My degree is actually in statistics which meshes very well with quantum mechanics.
I see it more as "generating" the field through "pulses" that "don't exist". Like fourier transformations. But instead of using standing waves you use those "instantaneous" "pulses". But the result is the same.
@@lg186282 "... statistics which meshes very well with quantum mechanics...." I've never liked either. They both seem like giving up on truth and just settling on what's popular. If I roll a die, it's NOT a "1 in 6 chance of", it's absolutely guaranteed to land on the side that it does. I just don't have all the information necessary to determine which side that will be....so I give up....and say, "1 in 6". Quantum mechanics has the same problem. Some how, "We can't know." turned into "It doesn't have."
There’s something different about this channel. Idk what it’s just feels more personal and informal and I like it. Perfect mix of fun humor and facts. Keep up the good work👍🏻
Mike10131994 I'm pretty sure you're right - as far as i remember, it's created by parts of the universe leaving the area that's causally connected to the object, or rather, the object accelerating out of causal connection to space behind it. So it would be opposite of the direction of travel; though i could be wrong. But i feel like i watched a pbs spacetime about this lol
The diagram around 11:00 looked wrong since it led to inertia pointing the wrong direction. If the error is as you say, then the diagram at 11:00 should have the background dots moving left instead of right. That'd at least point inertia opposed to acceleration.
Yeah, that actually makes a lot more sense. Inertia should oppose acceleration, not make you accelerate faster. But actually, I'm not convinced the horizon should really be close at all. Especially not close enough for the Casimir Effect to kick in. Gonna have to go watch the PBS Space Time episode on the Unruh Effect again...
I'm willing to poke it with a snake-handling stick . If we assume that in a sense , more dense/concentrated accumulations of mass "fall" into the future (t) faster , then it is concievable that they draw nearby mass "down" with them , in a manner analogous to a sinking ship drawing floating objects down after it . The above would generate attractive behaviors , which would appear to be what we call "gravity" . 🤓
no, Ernst Mach's name is NOT pronounced like 'mak' . It's a German name, pronounced exactly like 'Bach' -- as in Johann Sebastian Bach - just with an M.
@@billrussell7672 no just telling others how it is right! Calling someone a Nazi for trying to make things better is, just the same that you wrote! If i am wrong i want to know it in a nice way, like he did it!
My favorite explanation for dark matter is the "Massive Gravity Theory" which states that the graviton actually has mass and therefore dark matter is huge amounts of gravity particles next to each other.
The Casimir effect helps your computer work. When you set up two plates really close together, the particles between the plates are forced to slow down and lose energy, creating a cooling effect in the plates. This is used to cool the microchips in your computer. It can only be done on a very small scale, but if you had a Casimir device the size of a piece of bread, it could air-condition your home for free. That is a very tall order, however, as manufacturing super-flat plates of that size is not possible right now.
Let's hope that this QI theory will enable us to boldly go where no one has gone before, to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations... :) Perhaps we already have our Zefram Cochrane, and his real name is Mike McCulloch. ;)
Joe, I’ve gotta say, I always enjoy your videos, and you do a great job of explaining complicated subjects. But what I am most impressed by is your way with a camera! You are a Natural! I always feel like we are having a personal conversation, you inject the right amount of humor, and you are perfectly comfortable talking to millions in front of a camera! I honestly think you should have a gig with the Science Channel or Discovery! If you had an hour’s show on cable television each week I would never miss it, move over Neil Tyson! Sure he’s a real smart guy, but he doesn’t have your way with the camera. It truly is a great and rare talent, you deserve all the success coming your way!
@@kunjukunjunil1481 who told you that, a Nasa scientist? The moon is a non Euclidean disc, something that is 2 dimensional doesn't have a top or bottom.
What about Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall? And there's another theory which explains galaxy rotation curve without dark matter, it calls "Metric dynamics" by Russian scientist Sergei Siparov (or "Anisotropic geometrodynamics", which is expansion of special and general relativity theories), which states (from the second name) that our space is in fact anisotropic. I am no expert either in these, so Joe, if you'll able to do video on that, it would be awesome.
Great video and funny as hell, Joe! I'm really not sure about QI but then again I'm not a theoretical physicist so it's more than out of my lane. I'd love it if it were true, but it'll take a lot more work to see if there's anything to it. Minor quip - Hawking radiation hasn't been observed. At least not conclusively, though there have been some interesting results by some researchers. All in all, brilliant job!
The "observations" have been mostly done in analogous experiments (actually very recently): phys.org/news/2019-01-hawking-laboratory-black-hole-analogues.html
The rindler horizon was supposed to be behind the accelerating object and as there are more virtual particles infront than behind then the object receives this resistance to acceleration in other words inertia
@@joescott one of my best friends is the son of Mike Allred who did some of the artwork and the blunt man and chronic artwork, he also plays himself in that movie, ironically signing autographs on his own real life comic book, Madman.
Calling it pseudoscience seems a bit harsh, it’s as pseudoscience as string theory. Theoretical physics is not pseudoscience. It may be wrong but it has at least been peer reviewed and is founded on mathematics, not whimsy. Love the channel but that was a cheap shot.
Joe Scott And actually it was a good opportunity to explain why it’s not pseudoscience despite what some articles claim. It could certainly be wrong (and I do think that theoretical physics does go out too far on a limb - string theory) - but it is at least mathematically sound which pseudoscience never is.
Do you realize how many times theories and even factual science has been wrong? Do you know science once approved of bleeding out as a medical procedure?
I just came up with an amazing challenge. Take a huge bong hit and then try and get through this entire video without having your mind wander off and having to rewatch sections of this to keep up with what he is describing.
Difference being that QI seems to predict galaxy rotations without adjustments, where as dark matter must be sprinkled around and adjusted by physicists until it matches the galaxy rotation. Still, I chuckled :)
"Unruh radiation is predicted by general relativity." Not in the form in which it's being used here. For starters, it doesn't exert pressure, so it can't affect inertia one way or the other.
You should make a video clarifying the difference in science between: Law, Theory, and Hypothesis. You say theoretical when you mean hypothetical. Theory has predictive power and is supported by observation (gravity, evolution, etc.). An idea that is put forward, but not proven is a hypothesis. A law is a statement consistent with observation, but does not predict or explain.
Sadly, "Law", theory and hypothesis are all fuzzy these days. String "theory" (probably the biggest offender in physics, and also essentially mandatory to turn a blind eye if you want to get into theoretical physics... theoretical physics nuff said), multiverse "theory", and so on.
the problem is even scientists use them incorrectly. The common use of theory today is the actual definition of law. Ive had people froth at the mouth when i pointed out theory by definition is unproven as yet.
@cdreid9999 Yeh, I have a theory that you do not know what a theory is. The difference between a theory and a law is not `proof`. You seem to be using the term theory to have a meaning more in line with hypothesis. I am guessing you dont believe in evolution?
When 2 EM fields collide, i.e., come to a rest, the energy of the fields convert into pairs of particles. See law of conservation, energy cannot be destroyed. Thus the energy of the two fields colliding does not cancel out or destroyed but instead is converted into pairs of particles, see pair production theory. The unruh horizon 'radiation' hypothesis appears to be another example of pair production theory, see rendered images of the bow shock along the sun's Heliosphere. The casimir affect may have nothing to do with virtual particles but instead Fe in the metal may be causing a magnetic attraction between the two plates. I do like the fringe hypothesis. I've did the math on the movement of stars and galaxies and found that their movement was not related to their mass at all. In fact the correlation I discovered was with their age. It appears the older a galaxy or star is the faster speeds they reach, at a near perfect acceleration rate of about 1 mi/h increase every 10,000 years. Evidence which supports the Fringe hypothesis, seeing how the fringe hypothesis does not rely on the amount of mass in the star or galaxy either.
@@Ali-gh7rj I agree. Gravity is not a force. Gravity is a reaction because of an action occurring in mass! The warping of space is a reaction for the same reason. The flow of time is a reaction to this action. The expansion of space is a reaction to this action. The effect pinned on dark matter is also a reaction to this action. None of those observations are caused by gravity. Instead one single action in the universe causes all of those observed reactions. Thus gravity because it is a reaction and not an action cannot be measured at the quantum scale and also why general relativity cannot be linked to quantum mechanics.
@@Ali-gh7rj Science is such a religion that we funded a 5 billion dollar particle accelerator to disprove the Standard Model of Physics. You have the right to speak, as well as the right to being a moron
Hi Joe, thank you for all of your videos, I really love them and I hope to see many more :) . I am a research physicist working in testing Quantum Field Theories in the presence of gravity so Hawking Radiation and Unruh effect is very important for my work. If I could just point out one thing, Hawking Radiation was not seen in 2010. What Belgiorno saw was analog effects that are mathematically similar to Black Hole Event Horizon effects far away from the Black Hole but the analogy breaks down for events closer. Belgiorno's experiments were impressive, but they have been greatly oversold.

I asked my physics teacher about this, his response: *eyes roll* “I don’t get paid enough for this” EDIT: My teacher is quite knowledgeable in his subject, as you require a master degree in whatever you teach (Australia).

10:47 so it is true that when you throw an object, little angels go pushing it all the way, keeping the object's momentum. Renaissance guys were right.
But the little angels need something to stand on while they are pushing or they will just move backward. I propose little flying turtles like the big one the Earth rests on... only little... and with wings... like in Mario Bros. When do I get my Nobel?
The inertia of the particles strings pushing space outward is basically rest mass. And the inertia fields you were displaying in macro is what causes frame shifting. That very frame shifting is what causes the outward push attributed to dark energy. When looking at frame shifting in 3D instead of 2D like most models, you will see at the axis of a spinning body there are funnels formed. Also at the equator there's wedges formed. Those lines intersecting points are areas of gravitational pressure so to speak. They reduce the bodys gravitational pull and can actually reverse it with enough mass and speed.
Hey Joe, Would you be able to do a video on Perovskite Solar Cells? I hear that they are quickly gaining efficiently and practically take a fraction of the energy and rare materials to create. The complication of building these cells could be described somewhere around a modern day version of making “stained glass”. Boasting around %20 efficiency already in under 6 years and how cheap and easy they are to make, no wonder people are excited about them!
I am currently involved in research on that subject (at THE Ohio State University). While you are correct on the fact that said compounds show promise, more testing is necessary before it can be properly reported upon. I CAN say that Methylammonium Lead Halides (we studied CH3NH3Pb(X3); X being either I or Br), while exhibiting photovoltaic potential, degrade far quicker than silicon, an instability which is exacerbated in the presence of light and moisture. This is besides the fact that lead is a toxin.
Keenan Weind, thank you so much for the follow up comment. I hope I don’t misrepresent the research thats still needed to be done in this application or the challenges that it still faces in regards to viability. I have just recently looked into these alternative solar formats. On a side note: What do you know about the so-called “artificial photosynthesis”? I hear that a university is experimenting with an “aspen leaf” like solar panel that can efficiently create hydrogen gas... which can easily be stored, pumped, and replenished. If true, this may extend the useful life of internal combustion engines for some time... especially since there is very little harmful byproducts of burning hydrogen. I don’t have a reference for the aspen leaf claim that I read some time ago, but as a quick reference, here’s a Wikipedia post (take with grain of salt... I haven’t fully read it.) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_photosynthesis
yeah, it is not pronounce like the speed mach (which is the one, _fact checker_ uses) but rather like the "mu" of "much" with the german "voiceless velar fricative" sound (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch_(digraph)#German). That sound is probably best known from the German word *Achtung*

They probably didn't observe black holes in space. They probably observed it coming from kugoblitz black holes which can be formed in the Hadron Collider.
@@josephedmond3723 Well I also heaven't heard of this neither. At least it would be possible since (as stated before) the background radiation is too strong so we can't see Hawking Radiation in real live black holes. However I haven't heard they actually created one at CERN neither. As far as I understood it was just a possibility. Is this confirmed in any way? Or is it just a theoretical assumption. I know mathematically it seems correct but yet, "confirmed in 2010" (or what he said) seems a bit too optimistic.
Quantized inertia is not a credible idea. There are at least three reasons for this: 1. If inertia is due to Unruh radiation _pressure,_ that means inertia is really due to a radiation _force_ impinging on an object. To calculate how an object will move when subjected to a force, we use Newton's second law F = ma and... oh, wait, if you substitute F = 0, a = 0 too, so F = ma _already contains any meaningful notion of inertia._ That means that McCulloch's claim is based on circular reasoning. 2. The motion of any object that accelerates for only a finite amount of time (such as all objects you've ever met in your life) _is not_ associated with a Rindler horizon. A Rindler horizon is just a fancy name for the idea that if you accelerate at a constant velocity, light rays coming from certain places in the universe will never catch up to you since you're getting so close to light speed. So _if you stop accelerating, the light can catch up to you and no horizon is there at all._ This pulls the carpet out from under quantized inertia which requires these "horizons" to do various things. 3. Even for objects that accelerate indefinitely, Unruh radiation doesn't work the same as normal radiation. In particular, it has zero energy density and exerts zero pressure. This means it fundamentally can't do what McCulloch wishes -- it can't push on anything at all. It's a very unintuitive quantum mechanical effect. I've actually discussed McCulloch's ideas when I made my second video discussing the emdrive (another pseudoscientific gadget), so it's a little disappointing to see their influence has grown since then.
PS: The Casimir effect is not related to a "higher density of vacuum fluctuations on the outside than inside". One old idea for the electron was that it might be a thin spherical shell of negative electric charge whose self-repulsion would be balanced by the Casimir force on the shell. Since there is a "higher density of vacuum fluctuations on the outside than inside", the vacuum should compress the shell and stabilized this model electron. The problem is, when the detailed calculation was done, people found out that the Casimir force for a sphere is _repulsive,_ that is, it tends to inflate the sphere. This killed the model, and it shows nicely that the intuition that so many often use when describing the Casimir effect is really not that accurate.
@Octavius Apollodorus I'm sure he meant accelerate at a constant rate. Try not to get so caught up in semantics when the concept is rather clear, unless you prefer to be technically correct and conceptually daft.
Your first point shows a poor understanding of the argument for quantum inertia. You don't need mass to determine acceleration, but rather mass is something the just derives from the math. It is similar to how, with standard physics, energy and momentum don't "exist," but are derived from the idea that forces, inertia, and mass do exist. There are no more assumptions in the quantum inertia model than the generally accepted models. Also the part about circular reasoning gave me a good laugh. Hate to break it to you but 100% of science is based in "logical fallacies." Also, that wasn't circular reasoning; if that was their argument, it would be contradictory premises, but it is actually a straw man on your part. Your 2nd point shows a misunderstanding of what unruh radiation is. I recommend watching PBS Spacetime's video on it( ruclips.net/video/7cj6oiFDEXc/видео.html ). 3rd, once again watch that video. There is a noncontroversial drag associated with the unruh effect. I have no strong option on quantum inertia(in fact I lean towards it being false), but I am not qualified to teach on the subject. It is good to form your own option on things, but when you start presenting your underdeveloped opinion as fact, you are no better than a flat earther.
"The casimir effect compresses the sphere since there are no long wavelengths inside the sphere resulting in net positive pressure outside the sphere." That's what the boat intuition would suggest, but the boat intuition is wrong. It's misleading. The Casimir effect is related to the asymptotics of the zero point energy contributions, not any simple property like a "density". In one dimension, the Casimir effect is attractive because 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + … = -1/12, which itself is related to the asymptotics of the (regularized) sum of frequencies.
To date....this is the only video of Joe's that I simply couldn't make it to the end of. After the third or fourth angel singing definition I was toast! Thanks Joe!
As a German, let me tell you that "Mach" is most definitely NOT pronounced as advocated in this video. That German "ch"-sound is just something English throats aren't usually able to do. Also, Hawking Radiation *_from black holes_* has never been observed contrary to what this video implies. For actual stellar black holes (or larger ones), Hawking radiation would be too miniscule for observation even if it were as close to us as the moon. There was a lab-experiment related to Hawking radiation, but it wasn't really about black holes.
@@joescott Also you did not pronounce McCulloch's name 100% correctly because 'ch' in his name is pronounced like 'ch' in Scottish word "Loch", which is actually similar to German or Austrian pronunciation of 'ch'.
@@ExcelinusCom Germans don't spit when making that sound though. Plus, without a "th" we don't have to stick out our tongues to people to pronounce every other word. :-P Just kidding, I actually like the English language ;-)
Inertia in S.I. units is Kgm^2 ( Mass x radius squared ). For A spherical body 4Pir^2/4/3PIr^3 = 3/r ( Surface area divided by volume). Angular frequency c/r. c = maximum speed of light. The radius is quantized from the visual size of the mass. After the initial measurement of the static particle it depends on the type of motion as to which type of radiation is admitted. As you stated it can be either Hawking , Cerenkov or Unruh radiation. The Casimir effect is where massive particles appear out of the vacuum. Black holes do not emit radiation when they shrink. When massive bodies get closer together then radiation is emitted. Heat must be generated. One must understand the concept of the open space.
Thanks for the clear disclaimer. I hung out with an awesome astrophysicist for a couple of weeks on a cruise to Belize ... where he couldn't get away from me :) At one point he commented that your videos often convey inaccurate information. While this is true, I replied, Joe doesn't claim to be a physicist and says so clearly, so go easy on him. In another example, not related to your channel, a FermiLab research physicist told me he doesn't like going on the FermiLab public tours because he has an uncontrollable urge to interject corrections to what they say. So, even in great places like FermiLab, a presentation to the public is intended to inform as best as they can while not confusing the audience with detailed nuances they wouldn't comprehend anyway. Love your channel. Thanks!
@@CorwynGC In cases where facts are stated incorrectly, I agree. I was more referring to nuances. An example would be "photons move slower through materials than through a vacuum".

Regarding the Casimir effect describing how higher levels of radiation on one side of the plates or behind the accelerating object pushes the plates or draws the object forward. This was used as an explanation of how quantized inertia might work but what mechanism then can explain how radiation has the ability to push? What I see is a situation where a theory to explain one thing (in my mind at least) opens up a conundrum where we now need to explain something different. To me it is like watching one of those Mandelbrot set animations where we are digging deeper and deeper but it still looks the same.
5:04 It's not pronounced 'mac' my dear fact checking clone Joe. Original Joe almost had it. It's /ˈmɑːx/ - m as in "mud", the a as the vowel in "mud" and the 'ch' ( = /x/) is a sound that is not part of the English language and is often used to make fun of the German languages. (Look up words like 'Nacht' or 'Buch' to hear it) Anyway: it is perfectly fine if you say /k/ for the 'ch' - as long as you use the right vowel. (Think of Johann Sebastian Bach) So, yeah: original Joe 1 - Fact check clone: 0
I’ll be your fact checker: When you accelerate, you create an event horizon behind you, not in front of you. The faster you accelerate, the closer that the event horizon chases you.
Agreed. The Unruh pressure difference, high ahead low behind, would resist your acceleration. The faster we try to accelerate the more resistance we experience. This would explain the inertia we experience, and why mass cannot attain the speed of light. So in a rotating galaxy, it is not the outer stars that move too fast, but the inner stars that move too slowly. They want to move faster but QI slows them down.
When the guy spun the wheel, how much would the difference be if instead of the edge of the wheel touching the vertical axis of the chair, have him extend his arms to change the ratio between the length separating the two vertical axles? I suspect the effect will be less the further away the wheel goes.
The diagram at 10:50 is incorrect. The Rindler Horizon is BEHIND the accelerating object, thereby creating a force that impedes the acceleration...it doesn't add to the acceleration. This impedance explains why stars in the outer rim of galaxies don't fly off into space, why wide binary systems don't separate, and the Pioneer anomaly.
Love the alter ego fact checker ! Keep him on ;] You could use him to give you "fun" facts or semi-related interesting facts about your main subject. It's an awesome idea, keep it up!
Wait, in your visual, the unrah radiation pressure was pushing the particle in the *same* direction of its acceleration, which is the *opposite* effect inertia has. Doesn't the horizon actually *trail* the accelerating particle, and thus, the unrah radiation pressure creates drag on the accelerating particle, which is what we see as inertia?
It happens just to the outside of an event horizon. One spins out and the other spins in, towards the blackhole. The virtual particles don't come into existence within the event horizon. The important thing to remember is, if you are just outside the event horizon you can escape a blackhole. Think of Feynman diagrams where you have one diverting to the left and the other particle to the right. If the blackhole is to your left and you are next to the event horizon "line" and particles come into existence in front of you, this is a "mistake" made by the particles as they can't come back together and annihilate, since one of them will have crossed the line of no return and the other will just keep going to the right as it can escape the "pull" of the blackhole or in this case radiate off! :)
As Joe mentioned, you've got the so called "virtual particles" constantly popping in and out of existence. Matter and Anti-matter particles as we call them. These keep canceling each other out, so the net effect is equal to 0. If you consider the event horizon of a black hole as a circle, then every particle i.e light, matter w/e that gets trapped inside the circle cannot get out. Now, when the particles that pop into existence just inside the edge of the horizon, its correspondent counter particle gets trapped on the outside "leaks" out, resulting in a non-zero net effect. Besides. These particles are not affected by gravitation. So they can't get sucked in. Hope that answers your question ^^.
yes i get that, what i don't get is how that happens do the particles go in opposite directions? since they have to crash their paths must intercept at some point but for that to happen i can't imagine a scenario where two particles pop into existence with a path that must intercept and have one get sucked in and the other escapes.
But if the 2 plates get pulled together due to this balance of particles creating an external force, then why do the plates have to be metal for it to work? If you used, let's say, I donno: Porcelain plates instead, they would still have particles creating that "pressure" or force, except they don't... This has always lead me to assume that metal plates pulled together due to some type of electron and/or magnetic force beyond my level of knowledge. I don't get it..
I missed this one last year, but want to mention once again, Haramien's schwartzchild proton theory. There's so much left to learn, and making up math to discribe what we don't understand should be simple.
You do realize that the terms dark matter and dark energy or just placeholder terminology. They are simply referencing that we can see the effects of energy and matter at play but are unable to see the energy and matter itself.
@@Walter-wo5sz but of course the people giving things names are not the same ones pretending to understand things. They are the ones working toward understanding.
I've got so many questions! But where can I go, who to ask about this? Ex; Hawkin says the particle splits and black hole only takes antimatter and shrinks, but it equally is taking in the opposite real matter particle at 50 50 rate so How can they evaporate?
QI viewed as a "Fringe" theory ? Quantum physics itself was a fringe theory not long ago... PS: I'm not an expert or saying the QI theory is amazing or anything - just pointing out the obvious
I appreciate that theories exist that don’t rely on dark matter. Dark matter may very well be a thing, but it has always seemed more like a gap in our understanding than something that functions as advertised. The possibility of antigravity drive is exciting.
Thank you for yet another awesome video. :-D Such an interesting subject, and a real rabbit hole to jump down... I've always had a big problem with the idea of "dark matter". To me it seemed too much like an added complication to fudge our lack of understanding of what's really going on. Rather like the Earth-centric model of the solar system prior to Copernicus - how to get planetary motion right with the Earth at the middle? Epicycles! But that's just a fudge that doesn't further our understanding of what's really going on, for a certain value of "really". Sounds a bit like dark mater, eh? So "QI" could potentially solve that issue (along with many others) just like Copernicus did when he "rearranged" the solar system and improved our understanding... but then it all goes a bit runny: Much to my own disappointment it seems "dark matter" really is a thing, that we don't understand, and not necessarily an artifact of our incomplete understanding. eg: ruclips.net/video/_eS4fz2IoaE/видео.html So: It's worse than not having the understanding of how a thing works, we really don't have the faintest clue how to even identify that thing! And: By extension "QI" is probably wrong, for a given value of wrong, because one of it's primary predictions (no dark matter) falls down... *sigh* and so we are also, probably, no closer to understanding what inertia actually is! Still, science would be very boring indeed if we had all the answers... and we'll probably be very wrong if we ever come to that conclusion. PS Here's some more fringe ideas: Maybe the reason we can't bring relativity and quantum mechanics together is we are looking at the problem in the wrong way. eg: -Maybe the arrow of causality is in the opposite direction to the way we think it is. The universe isn't built up from the bottom but down from the top - think of a clay sculpture. You're pretty sure how it looks but the smaller the scale the harder it becomes to predict how the clay moves as you push it about. - Sound familiar? -Maybe, highly disappointingly, the reason we haven't been able to put quantum mechanics together with relativity is because the latter has no intrinsic rules of it's own but is just a description of an emergent behavior based on the quantum realm? (eg: Langton's ant) That would be disappointing because there is no math that can predict specific emergent behaviors and so we'll never be able to bring the two theories together. -Maybe string theory just doesn't go far enough. Rather than a universe with 11ish dimentions consider a universe with a functionally infinite number of tiny dimensions all in contact with each other. Now consider those dimensions as a continuum where those "closest to you" appear to have "size" and those "further away" have less "size". Say you perceive the "nearest" 3 or 4 as "space-time" and the further ones as relatively so small you perceive them as the fundamental building blocks of matter out of which everything seems to be made... building blocks that are all actually and permanently in contact? Now consider how that relates to quantum mechanics (*cough* entanglement for instance) and relativity, and how that may link the two. Bonus points: I wonder if there is a way to change your "perspective" as to which dimensions appear large and which appear small? Sorry, I do like to ramble.

13:37 That's not saying much about DARPA level of interest. 1.3m funding over 4 years is the DARPA equivalent of our idle google searching.
Actually this pretty typical for a 6.1 funding level of this kind of purely theoretical academic research. It will increase if it progresses to the 6.2 level (applied research). If you didn’t get that then google ‘DOD research activity funding codes’
Exactly the point, while it is interesting enough to take a look, it's not interesting enough to throw any serious money at it. If the little investment pans out, no big loss (relatively by federal budget standards). 1.3M is peanuts to the federals. But if the sifting reveals a gold strike, then they'd throw more money at it.

Not really desperate. "Dark" in dark matter/energy just means "something we cannot see or haven't found, yet". So basically unexplained phenomenon.
Its frustrating too! But at the same time I think it gives a lot of space to maybe explain certain unknown phenomena... I imagine there could possibly be an entire dark universe right inside of ours with its own set of rules, structures, perhaps even intelligent life
creator 44 i dont think so. Its interesting to think about, but since we share gravity with dark matter, and gravity falls off with the square of the distance which can only exist in 3 dimensions. Another complimentary universe would mean 6 dimensions- gravity would fall off far faster than it does currently.

"Down is towards the enemy gate" Ender's Game. Orson Scott Card
Directions are relative to the person/location.
Most languages use what we consider common directions, relative to the location/person giving them. But there are other ways to give directions, which can be hard to wrap our minds around, in a couple other, simpler languages (less complex; fewer ways to describe things, for instance).
More advanced civilizations use more defining words, but, directions are still mostly relative. ...so, “up” is something away from what we stand upon, and assumes gravity...up is away from a center of gravity.
Ergo, if one is out in space where there is no gravity pulling an object off-course (at which point, it’s going “down” towards a center of gravity), it could theoretically keep going (like Voyager?)....but loses its “up-ness”...it only is going “up” as it leaves earth; once beyond gravitational pull of earth, or other celestial bodies, it’s not going “up” anymore...it can be described as going “away”. But from the perspective of the thing traveling, it is simply moving from or to something else.
Well of course. "The enemy's gate is _down._"
Dark matter and dark energy have always smacked of "Here there be monsters." I've always felt like they were just place holders until we finally understood the reality of the situation. I get the feeling that two hundred years from now, people will laugh at the concepts. As for saying QI is fringe science, well, plate tectonics was fringe science too for a hundred years.
Yes, we should just accept the fact that general relativity is philosophically, scientifically, and mathematically incorrect.
You are correct, Sir. However, it will not take 200 years.
For the frequently wretched insects that we are, however, we're doing just fine. The 1% of reality we are able to observe, measure, and accurately describe is truely impressive for such a limited species. Don't you think? After all, a few generations ago, a knapped flint ax was the cutting edge of technology.
Shhhhhh..... You are giving the creationists hope that they have a fringe science, and not a blatant delusion.
At last, you've put my thoughts into words. 😝
That's how they knew to keep looking for the Higgs Boson. The math didn't work, so they figured there must be a particle they couldn't find. It took a while, but they found it, exactly where it was predicted. So this means they had a placeholder to make the math work for all the other particles, then found the Higgs once technology advanced enough. I don't have a problem with them using a placeholder until they discover what it is.
Fact check: virtual particles are NOT when a particle/antipartice pair are created. When that happens, those are REAL particles. Virtual particles are instances where the math kinda needs a "particle" but which are doing impossible things for such a particle. PBS Spacetime did a terrific episode on this.
The particle/anti-particle pair is analogous to describing an electron orbiting an atom instead of describing it as being located in a probability cloud. Modes of the quantum field are scattered due to the curvature of space-time at the event horizon. Frequencies longer than the radius of the event horizon are scattered outward while the rest are sucked inward. This creates a vacuum level lower than that of empty space inside and thus reduces the mass of the black hole. The frequency is tied to the Schwarzchild radius and is precisely why microscopic black holes emit so much more hawking radiation; their radius is much smaller and thus emits much higher levels of energy. Shorter wave lengths (eg. x-rays) are more energetic than longer waves (eg. radio waves). See that PBS video Leo mentioned. It is excellent.
You just blew my frickin mind, @@lg186282 . Random question (armchair space nerd here), do black holes... move? And would they experience this 'Unruh Radiation" and the Casimir effect as explained in the video?
@@MaurerPower846 You are too kind. Black holes spin rapidly and orbit their parent galaxy as any other star. In Stephen Hawking's paper on "Hawking Radiation", "Unruh Radiation" is part of the equation. The really cool thing is without a "Theory of Everything" Hawking's equations is only one possible solution. There are other proposed solutions for "Hawking Radiation", but they all have the same result; emission from black holes of photons with their wavelength equal to the "Schwarzchild Radius". Incidentally, I am an armchair physicist. My degree is actually in statistics which meshes very well with quantum mechanics.
I see it more as "generating" the field through "pulses" that "don't exist".
Like fourier transformations. But instead of using standing waves you use those "instantaneous" "pulses".

Isn't the Rindler Horizon behind the observer or am I mistaken? Shouldn't the horizon be generated opposite the direction of acceleration?
Mike10131994
I'm pretty sure you're right - as far as i remember, it's created by parts of the universe leaving the area that's causally connected to the object, or rather, the object accelerating out of causal connection to space behind it. So it would be opposite of the direction of travel; though i could be wrong. But i feel like i watched a pbs spacetime about this lol
That's right, it's behind the accelerating body, and it's flat, a plane, not a hyperbola.
The diagram around 11:00 looked wrong since it led to inertia pointing the wrong direction.
If the error is as you say, then the diagram at 11:00 should have the background dots moving left instead of right. That'd at least point inertia opposed to acceleration.
I thought there was maybe a 50% chance I got that right. Maybe.
This falls into the "to the best of my knowledge, which is very shallow" category.
Yeah, that actually makes a lot more sense. Inertia should oppose acceleration, not make you accelerate faster.
But actually, I'm not convinced the horizon should really be close at all. Especially not close enough for the Casimir Effect to kick in. Gonna have to go watch the PBS Space Time episode on the Unruh Effect again...

My favorite explanation for dark matter is the "Massive Gravity Theory" which states that the graviton actually has mass and therefore dark matter is huge amounts of gravity particles next to each other.
The Casimir effect helps your computer work. When you set up two plates really close together, the particles between the plates are forced to slow down and lose energy, creating a cooling effect in the plates. This is used to cool the microchips in your computer. It can only be done on a very small scale, but if you had a Casimir device the size of a piece of bread, it could air-condition your home for free. That is a very tall order, however, as manufacturing super-flat plates of that size is not possible right now.

@@drkentstrife String theory is not real, dark matter is not real, and he has videos about that, so...
The rindler horizon was supposed to be behind the accelerating object
and as there are more virtual particles infront than behind then the object receives this resistance to acceleration in other words inertia

Calling it pseudoscience seems a bit harsh, it’s as pseudoscience as string theory. Theoretical physics is not pseudoscience. It may be wrong but it has at least been peer reviewed and is founded on mathematics, not whimsy. Love the channel but that was a cheap shot.
Exactly, he published over 20 papers about QI, most in good scientific peer-reviewed journals - so calling that pseudosience is very harsh.
The only reason I used that word was because I kept seeing it in the articles I read about it. Wasn't trying to take any kind of shot at it.
Joe Scott Yeah, but you’re better than that :) leave the gonzo stuff to the click baiters.
Joe Scott And actually it was a good opportunity to explain why it’s not pseudoscience despite what some articles claim. It could certainly be wrong (and I do think that theoretical physics does go out too far on a limb - string theory) - but it is at least mathematically sound which pseudoscience never is.
Do you realize how many times theories and even factual science has been wrong? Do you know science once approved of bleeding out as a medical procedure?
I just came up with an amazing challenge.
Take a huge bong hit and then try and get through this entire video without having your mind wander off and having to rewatch sections of this to keep up with what he is describing.

Hold my beer! Invents exotic radiation.
Unruh radiation is predicted by general relativity.

@@Mosern1977 Yup thats a good one.
Difference being that QI seems to predict galaxy rotations without adjustments, where as dark matter must be sprinkled around and adjusted by physicists until it matches the galaxy rotation. Still, I chuckled :)
"Unruh radiation is predicted by general relativity."
Not in the form in which it's being used here. For starters, it doesn't exert pressure, so it can't affect inertia one way or the other.
You should make a video clarifying the difference in science between: Law, Theory, and Hypothesis. You say theoretical when you mean hypothetical. Theory has predictive power and is supported by observation (gravity, evolution, etc.). An idea that is put forward, but not proven is a hypothesis. A law is a statement consistent with observation, but does not predict or explain.
Sadly, "Law", theory and hypothesis are all fuzzy these days. String "theory" (probably the biggest offender in physics, and also essentially mandatory to turn a blind eye if you want to get into theoretical physics... theoretical physics nuff said), multiverse "theory", and so on.
The danger is that idiots will parrot: "evolution is just a theory".
@@davidbernhagen4316 or "gravity is just a theory"! as long as we can get people to understand the definitions we might stand a chance
the problem is even scientists use them incorrectly. The common use of theory today is the actual definition of law. Ive had people froth at the mouth when i pointed out theory by definition is unproven as yet.
@cdreid9999 Yeh, I have a theory that you do not know what a theory is. The difference between a theory and a law is not `proof`. You seem to be using the term theory to have a meaning more in line with hypothesis. I am guessing you dont believe in evolution?
When 2 EM fields collide, i.e., come to a rest, the energy of the fields convert into pairs of particles. See law of conservation, energy cannot be destroyed. Thus the energy of the two fields colliding does not cancel out or destroyed but instead is converted into pairs of particles, see pair production theory. The unruh horizon 'radiation' hypothesis appears to be another example of pair production theory, see rendered images of the bow shock along the sun's Heliosphere.
The casimir affect may have nothing to do with virtual particles but instead Fe in the metal may be causing a magnetic attraction between the two plates.
I do like the fringe hypothesis. I've did the math on the movement of stars and galaxies and found that their movement was not related to their mass at all. In fact the correlation I discovered was with their age. It appears the older a galaxy or star is the faster speeds they reach, at a near perfect acceleration rate of about 1 mi/h increase every 10,000 years. Evidence which supports the Fringe hypothesis, seeing how the fringe hypothesis does not rely on the amount of mass in the star or galaxy either.
@@Ali-gh7rj I agree. Gravity is not a force. Gravity is a reaction because of an action occurring in mass! The warping of space is a reaction for the same reason. The flow of time is a reaction to this action. The expansion of space is a reaction to this action. The effect pinned on dark matter is also a reaction to this action. None of those observations are caused by gravity. Instead one single action in the universe causes all of those observed reactions.
Thus gravity because it is a reaction and not an action cannot be measured at the quantum scale and also why general relativity cannot be linked to quantum mechanics.
@@Ali-gh7rj Science is such a religion that we funded a 5 billion dollar particle accelerator to disprove the Standard Model of Physics.

Hi Joe, thank you for all of your videos, I really love them and I hope to see many more :) . I am a research physicist working in testing Quantum Field Theories in the presence of gravity so Hawking Radiation and Unruh effect is very important for my work. If I could just point out one thing, Hawking Radiation was not seen in 2010. What Belgiorno saw was analog effects that are mathematically similar to Black Hole Event Horizon effects far away from the Black Hole but the analogy breaks down for events closer. Belgiorno's experiments were impressive, but they have been greatly oversold.
A blackhole's Event horizon is legit, even Chuck Norris broke into a sweat when he jumped out of it. Just glad he let the blackhole be.
Chuck Norris broke his foot off in that hole.

@@stevenstewart3414 But what would move them backwards? Tinier angels? Standing on what?
The inertia of the particles strings pushing space outward is basically rest mass. And the inertia fields you were displaying in macro is what causes frame shifting. That very frame shifting is what causes the outward push attributed to dark energy. When looking at frame shifting in 3D instead of 2D like most models, you will see at the axis of a spinning body there are funnels formed. Also at the equator there's wedges formed. Those lines intersecting points are areas of gravitational pressure so to speak. They reduce the bodys gravitational pull and can actually reverse it with enough mass and speed.
Hey Joe, Would you be able to do a video on Perovskite Solar Cells?
I hear that they are quickly gaining efficiently and practically take a fraction of the energy and rare materials to create. The complication of building these cells could be described somewhere around a modern day version of making “stained glass”.
Boasting around %20 efficiency already in under 6 years and how cheap and easy they are to make, no wonder people are excited about them!
when I read your comment... it automatically played in my mind to the tune of "Hey Joe" by Jimi Hendrix ... xD
I am currently involved in research on that subject (at THE Ohio State University). While you are correct on the fact that said compounds show promise, more testing is necessary before it can be properly reported upon. I CAN say that Methylammonium Lead Halides (we studied CH3NH3Pb(X3); X being either I or Br), while exhibiting photovoltaic potential, degrade far quicker than silicon, an instability which is exacerbated in the presence of light and moisture. This is besides the fact that lead is a toxin.

I have just recently looked into these alternative solar formats.
On a side note: What do you know about the so-called “artificial photosynthesis”?
I hear that a university is experimenting with an “aspen leaf” like solar panel that can efficiently create hydrogen gas... which can easily be stored, pumped, and replenished.
If true, this may extend the useful life of internal combustion engines for some time... especially since there is very little harmful byproducts of burning hydrogen.

Wait what? They observed Hawking Radiation? How? As far as I know it way to weak to discover it. So could you show a source?!
They probably didn't observe black holes in space. They probably observed it coming from kugoblitz black holes which can be formed in the Hadron Collider.
@@josephedmond3723 Well I also heaven't heard of this neither. At least it would be possible since (as stated before) the background radiation is too strong so we can't see Hawking Radiation in real live black holes. However I haven't heard they actually created one at CERN neither. As far as I understood it was just a possibility. Is this confirmed in any way? Or is it just a theoretical assumption. I know mathematically it seems correct but yet, "confirmed in 2010" (or what he said) seems a bit too optimistic.
"Observed" in a simulation.
Quantized inertia is not a credible idea. There are at least three reasons for this:
1. If inertia is due to Unruh radiation _pressure,_ that means inertia is really due to a radiation _force_ impinging on an object. To calculate how an object will move when subjected to a force, we use Newton's second law F = ma and... oh, wait, if you substitute F = 0, a = 0 too, so F = ma _already contains any meaningful notion of inertia._ That means that McCulloch's claim is based on circular reasoning.
2. The motion of any object that accelerates for only a finite amount of time (such as all objects you've ever met in your life) _is not_ associated with a Rindler horizon. A Rindler horizon is just a fancy name for the idea that if you accelerate at a constant velocity, light rays coming from certain places in the universe will never catch up to you since you're getting so close to light speed. So _if you stop accelerating, the light can catch up to you and no horizon is there at all._ This pulls the carpet out from under quantized inertia which requires these "horizons" to do various things.
3. Even for objects that accelerate indefinitely, Unruh radiation doesn't work the same as normal radiation. In particular, it has zero energy density and exerts zero pressure. This means it fundamentally can't do what McCulloch wishes -- it can't push on anything at all. It's a very unintuitive quantum mechanical effect.
I've actually discussed McCulloch's ideas when I made my second video discussing the emdrive (another pseudoscientific gadget), so it's a little disappointing to see their influence has grown since then.
PS: The Casimir effect is not related to a "higher density of vacuum fluctuations on the outside than inside". One old idea for the electron was that it might be a thin spherical shell of negative electric charge whose self-repulsion would be balanced by the Casimir force on the shell. Since there is a "higher density of vacuum fluctuations on the outside than inside", the vacuum should compress the shell and stabilized this model electron. The problem is, when the detailed calculation was done, people found out that the Casimir force for a sphere is _repulsive,_ that is, it tends to inflate the sphere. This killed the model, and it shows nicely that the intuition that so many often use when describing the Casimir effect is really not that accurate.
Good posts ;)
@Octavius Apollodorus I'm sure he meant accelerate at a constant rate. Try not to get so caught up in semantics when the concept is rather clear, unless you prefer to be technically correct and conceptually daft.
Your first point shows a poor understanding of the argument for quantum inertia. You don't need mass to determine acceleration, but rather mass is something the just derives from the math. It is similar to how, with standard physics, energy and momentum don't "exist," but are derived from the idea that forces, inertia, and mass do exist. There are no more assumptions in the quantum inertia model than the generally accepted models. Also the part about circular reasoning gave me a good laugh. Hate to break it to you but 100% of science is based in "logical fallacies." Also, that wasn't circular reasoning; if that was their argument, it would be contradictory premises, but it is actually a straw man on your part.
Your 2nd point shows a misunderstanding of what unruh radiation is. I recommend watching PBS Spacetime's video on it( ruclips.net/video/7cj6oiFDEXc/видео.html ).
3rd, once again watch that video. There is a noncontroversial drag associated with the unruh effect.
I have no strong option on quantum inertia(in fact I lean towards it being false), but I am not qualified to teach on the subject. It is good to form your own option on things, but when you start presenting your underdeveloped opinion as fact, you are no better than a flat earther.
"The casimir effect compresses the sphere since there are no long wavelengths inside the sphere resulting in net positive pressure outside the sphere."
That's what the boat intuition would suggest, but the boat intuition is wrong. It's misleading. The Casimir effect is related to the asymptotics of the zero point energy contributions, not any simple property like a "density". In one dimension, the Casimir effect is attractive because 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + … = -1/12, which itself is related to the asymptotics of the (regularized) sum of frequencies.
To date....this is the only video of Joe's that I simply couldn't make it to the end of. After the third or fourth angel singing definition I was toast! Thanks Joe!
5:04 your first prouncation of Mach was better :D.
He still pronounced Ernst like an American, hehe...
As a German, let me tell you that "Mach" is most definitely NOT pronounced as advocated in this video. That German "ch"-sound is just something English throats aren't usually able to do.
Also, Hawking Radiation *_from black holes_* has never been observed contrary to what this video implies. For actual stellar black holes (or larger ones), Hawking radiation would be too miniscule for observation even if it were as close to us as the moon. There was a lab-experiment related to Hawking radiation, but it wasn't really about black holes.
I should have been more specific about that. I was referring to the lab experiments.
@@joescott Also you did not pronounce McCulloch's name 100% correctly because 'ch' in his name is pronounced like 'ch' in Scottish word "Loch", which is actually similar to German or Austrian pronunciation of 'ch'.

Inertia in S.I. units is Kgm^2 ( Mass x radius squared ). For A spherical body 4Pir^2/4/3PIr^3 = 3/r ( Surface area divided by volume). Angular frequency c/r. c = maximum speed of light. The radius is quantized from the visual size of the mass. After the initial measurement of the static particle it depends on the type of motion as to which type of radiation is admitted. As you stated it can be either Hawking , Cerenkov or Unruh radiation. The Casimir effect is where massive particles appear out of the vacuum. Black holes do not emit radiation when they shrink. When massive bodies get closer together then radiation is emitted. Heat must be generated. One must understand the concept of the open space.

Regarding the Casimir effect describing how higher levels of radiation on one side of the plates or behind the accelerating object pushes the plates or draws the object forward. This was used as an explanation of how quantized inertia might work but what mechanism then can explain how radiation has the ability to push? What I see is a situation where a theory to explain one thing (in my mind at least) opens up a conundrum where we now need to explain something different. To me it is like watching one of those Mandelbrot set animations where we are digging deeper and deeper but it still looks the same.

It's /ˈmɑːx/ - m as in "mud", the a as the vowel in "mud" and the 'ch' ( = /x/) is a sound that is not part of the English language and is often used to make fun of the German languages. (Look up words like 'Nacht' or 'Buch' to hear it) Anyway: it is perfectly fine if you say /k/ for the 'ch' - as long as you use the right vowel. (Think of Johann Sebastian Bach) So, yeah: original Joe 1 - Fact check clone: 0
So, "muck" with some phlegm
I’ll be your fact checker:
When you accelerate, you create an event horizon behind you, not in front of you. The faster you accelerate, the closer that the event horizon chases you.
Agreed. The Unruh pressure difference, high ahead low behind, would resist your acceleration. The faster we try to accelerate the more resistance we experience. This would explain the inertia we experience, and why mass cannot attain the speed of light.
So in a rotating galaxy, it is not the outer stars that move too fast, but the inner stars that move too slowly. They want to move faster but QI slows them down.

You won't touch a Rindler Horizon with a 10 foot pole, but would you touch it with a quantized pole?
The diagram at 10:50 is incorrect. The Rindler Horizon is BEHIND the accelerating object, thereby creating a force that impedes the acceleration...it doesn't add to the acceleration. This impedance explains why stars in the outer rim of galaxies don't fly off into space, why wide binary systems don't separate, and the Pioneer anomaly.

Wait, in your visual, the unrah radiation pressure was pushing the particle in the *same* direction of its acceleration, which is the *opposite* effect inertia has.

Hawking radiation has been observed? That's news to me!
In Hawking radiation what makes the other particle fly away and not get sucked in?
i can't rap my head around that either
It happens just to the outside of an event horizon. One spins out and the other spins in, towards the blackhole. The virtual particles don't come into existence within the event horizon. The important thing to remember is, if you are just outside the event horizon you can escape a blackhole. Think of Feynman diagrams where you have one diverting to the left and the other particle to the right. If the blackhole is to your left and you are next to the event horizon "line" and particles come into existence in front of you, this is a "mistake" made by the particles as they can't come back together and annihilate, since one of them will have crossed the line of no return and the other will just keep going to the right as it can escape the "pull" of the blackhole or in this case radiate off! :)
As Joe mentioned, you've got the so called "virtual particles" constantly popping in and out of existence. Matter and Anti-matter particles as we call them. These keep canceling each other out, so the net effect is equal to 0. If you consider the event horizon of a black hole as a circle, then every particle i.e light, matter w/e that gets trapped inside the circle cannot get out. Now, when the particles that pop into existence just inside the edge of the horizon, its correspondent counter particle gets trapped on the outside "leaks" out, resulting in a non-zero net effect. Besides. These particles are not affected by gravitation. So they can't get sucked in. Hope that answers your question ^^.
Luck
yes i get that, what i don't get is how that happens do the particles go in opposite directions? since they have to crash their paths must intercept at some point but for that to happen i can't imagine a scenario where two particles pop into existence with a path that must intercept and have one get sucked in and the other escapes.
But if the 2 plates get pulled together due to this balance of particles creating an external force, then why do the plates have to be metal for it to work? If you used, let's say, I donno: Porcelain plates instead, they would still have particles creating that "pressure" or force, except they don't...
This has always lead me to assume that metal plates pulled together due to some type of electron and/or magnetic force beyond my level of knowledge. I don't get it..

I've got so many questions! But where can I go, who to ask about this? Ex; Hawkin says the particle splits and black hole only takes antimatter and shrinks, but it equally is taking in the opposite real matter particle at 50 50 rate so How can they evaporate?
I"m certain of one thing, I know just enough to know I don't know diddly squat.
They observed Hawking radiation in 2010??? I don't think so! This process has never been observed. It is purely theoretical.
Mr. Petrov and Mr. Scott ; two of my favorite personalities on You Tube. Hello, and good tidings to you both.
The “fact check” guy should have been wearing a pair of glasses lol.
QI viewed as a "Fringe" theory ? Quantum physics itself was a fringe theory not long ago...
PS: I'm not an expert or saying the QI theory is amazing or anything - just pointing out the obvious
It still is in the Bible Belt lol
I appreciate that theories exist that don’t rely on dark matter. Dark matter may very well be a thing, but it has always seemed more like a gap in our understanding than something that functions as advertised. The possibility of antigravity drive is exciting.
Thank you for yet another awesome video. :-D
Such an interesting subject, and a real rabbit hole to jump down...
I've always had a big problem with the idea of "dark matter". To me it seemed too much like an added complication to fudge our lack of understanding of what's really going on. Rather like the Earth-centric model of the solar system prior to Copernicus - how to get planetary motion right with the Earth at the middle? Epicycles! But that's just a fudge that doesn't further our understanding of what's really going on, for a certain value of "really". Sounds a bit like dark mater, eh?
So "QI" could potentially solve that issue (along with many others) just like Copernicus did when he "rearranged" the solar system and improved our understanding... but then it all goes a bit runny:
Much to my own disappointment it seems "dark matter" really is a thing, that we don't understand, and not necessarily an artifact of our incomplete understanding.
eg: ruclips.net/video/_eS4fz2IoaE/видео.html
So:
It's worse than not having the understanding of how a thing works, we really don't have the faintest clue how to even identify that thing!
And:
By extension "QI" is probably wrong, for a given value of wrong, because one of it's primary predictions (no dark matter) falls down... *sigh* and so we are also, probably, no closer to understanding what inertia actually is!
Still, science would be very boring indeed if we had all the answers... and we'll probably be very wrong if we ever come to that conclusion.
PS
Here's some more fringe ideas:
Maybe the reason we can't bring relativity and quantum mechanics together is we are looking at the problem in the wrong way.
eg:
-Maybe the arrow of causality is in the opposite direction to the way we think it is. The universe isn't built up from the bottom but down from the top - think of a clay sculpture. You're pretty sure how it looks but the smaller the scale the harder it becomes to predict how the clay moves as you push it about. - Sound familiar?
-Maybe, highly disappointingly, the reason we haven't been able to put quantum mechanics together with relativity is because the latter has no intrinsic rules of it's own but is just a description of an emergent behavior based on the quantum realm? (eg: Langton's ant) That would be disappointing because there is no math that can predict specific emergent behaviors and so we'll never be able to bring the two theories together.
-Maybe string theory just doesn't go far enough. Rather than a universe with 11ish dimentions consider a universe with a functionally infinite number of tiny dimensions all in contact with each other. Now consider those dimensions as a continuum where those "closest to you" appear to have "size" and those "further away" have less "size". Say you perceive the "nearest" 3 or 4 as "space-time" and the further ones as relatively so small you perceive them as the fundamental building blocks of matter out of which everything seems to be made... building blocks that are all actually and permanently in contact? Now consider how that relates to quantum mechanics (*cough* entanglement for instance) and relativity, and how that may link the two. Bonus points: I wonder if there is a way to change your "perspective" as to which dimensions appear large and which appear small?
Sorry, I do like to ramble.
Legend has that if you comment early enough, Joe will reply.
Ha, you must be new.
Never happens.
