Quantum Cooling to (Near) Absolute Zero

  • Getting down to liquid helium temperatures (4K) may be fairly straight forward, but cooling below that requires taking advantage of quantum phenomena. In this video Associate Professor Andrea Morello from the University of New South Wales explains how 'zero-point motion' makes it possible to use Helium-3 and Helium-4 in a dilution fridge to get down to only thousandths of degrees above absolute zero.
    It is this technique which is used to cool the MiniGrail at Leiden so that it can act as a gravitational wave antenna.

      we dont need space travel/exploration nor we need parallel realities manipulation/! we don't need theyr theories and B.S dogmas about subatomic nonsense and all these mental masturbation techniques that they had puked and regurgitated again and again....

      I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard for you to explain how addition, subtraction, multiplication and division works to a small child even if they are incapable of understanding. He's probably spent so much of his time studying and explaining these principles of quantum mechanics to people who do not quite have the knowledge to grasp how it all works, it's like clockwork to him at this point.

      If you used this as cooling for your cpu i don't think you could even get your pc to start because you would've just put a million tiny fractures in your cpu due to the extreme cold
      let alone crysis.

      MorbidSpecter
      Cracks in your cpu from supercooling it might not be visible but it has been proven that supercooled transistors (which is what a cpu is made up of) utterly fracture under extreme cold so basically the 1billion or so transistors in your i7 6700k would ALL die. And you'd be left with a slightly bent cpu asking yourself whats wrong with it.

    I come back to this video about once a year. I think I discovered it my last year of college, and I'm now in my 6th year of a PhD program in biophysics. Over that time I've come to realize just how brilliantly this professor explains a VERY confusing process in a way that anyone with basic science knowledge can understand. Having struggled to explain my research for years - and it's much simpler than this - it's SUPER impressive. As Einstein [allegedly] said... "The definition of genius is taking the complex and making it simple."

      +TED BEH Actually Cold Fusion is even hotter than that. Cold Fusion means getting fusion to occur at any temperature lower than it amount of energy it outputs. The temperature Fusion happens in a sun is already way colder than the energy output of the fusion which is why stars work as nuclear generators. The reason fusion happens at the lower temperatures on the sun is because of the extreme amounts of pressure due to the high gravity. On earth at 1 Bar Hydrogen needs to be so hot for fusion to occur that the energy output is not nearly enough to cause more hydrogen to fuse (for a chain reaction) If we could match the fusion temperatures of the sun that would already be cold fusion. The problem is finding a way to pressurise the system, or finding another way which does not require the system to be pressurised. (Remember, were not talking about like 100-200 psi, were talking in the range of 3.6 trillion psi.

      TheFeatInk light has been associated with knowledge and darkness with ignorance for a very long time, going all the way back to Prometheus. "Lucifer" is a Latin word meaning "light bearer", the first story of the bible is basically just a really long way of saying "ignorance is bliss". Christianity in its very first story and it's continued vilification of Lucifer makes it clear that Christianity is a religion that sees virtue in stupidity.
