- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 พ.ค. 2024
- Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek investigates the ideas that form our understanding of the universe: time, space, matter, energy, complexity, and complementarity.
Frank's book "Fundamentals" is available now: geni.us/TwaX90f
Frank Wilczek won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the strong nuclear force, one of the four fundamental forces of nature. His latest book explores essential concepts that form our understanding of what the world is and how it works.
Frank Wilczek is a theoretical physicist, author, and intellectual adventurer. He has received many prizes for his work, including a Nobel Prize in Physics.
Frank has made seminal contributions to fundamental particle physics, cosmology and the physics of materials. His current research focus includes Axions, Anyons, and Time Crystals. These are concepts in physics which he named and pioneered. Each has become a major focus of world-wide research.
This talk was recorded on 12 January 2021.

I'm a really bad sleeper. Not only because I work fast changing shifts, but also because my thoughts tend to go crazy when I'm doing nothing.
Just listening to this kind of video's help me so much. I'm truly interested in this subjects, and listen with great care. I learn a lot (not only about the subject that is being discussed, but also the english language) and at the same time I just can let go of stressful thoughts and just relax. Often I just fall asleep after just minutes causing me to watch/listen to the same video for a couple of times before I finish it, and it is just a win win Situation.
This channel really is one of my go to channels for this. This long interviews or presentations are just the best thing to put on and not worry about. So thanks for this great content.

I love listening to these presentations,
I find learning from the men and women who present themselves and their professions, relaxing.
You just wrote is so smoothly man. And wrapped up my the feeling of watching those lectures in just a mere sentence. Fantastic!!

I like Frank Wilczek’s voice. Good bedtime listening.
I would like to teach people things, but no one wants to listen to me do something like that. I have no authoritative position and am not taken very seriously as a result, even though I have extreme intelligence and can prove what I know is correct.
Wow. You absolutely need/deserve ta presentation at the Faraday desk! This has been my introduction to you and I am overjoyed and grateful. You're a matchmaker for Reality: when serious science meets and falls in love with beautiful explanations.
We have been very fortunate to have Frank speak at the Ri before - th-cam.com/video/sPbwki0qpQ4/w-d-xo.html
The music analogy is the best way I’ve heard wave particle duality described.
Franks book “the lightness of being” is a wonderful description of reality from page 1 to the back cover.
Loved it.
I see Dr. Wilczek, I click. Always thought provoking. Thank you Dr.
you forgot "i'm a simple man".
This was such a wonderful talk. I am so late to Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek's talks and ideas. Their youthful passion for exploring is infectious. 🌸

Besides, vitamin effects aren't new knowledge.

I've watched a few of Franks podcast spots over the past fortnight, hosted by Sean Carroll, Brian Greene, Brian Keating, among others. All of them ask different questions so something new learned every time. Nice to hear him go through the book in his way now

On the topic of mind and matter, I think it is also important to acknowledge that our entire body of knowledge of evolution indicates that mind has evolved like everything else, and that abiogenesis of the first cells didn't involve any other trickery than what's covered by physics and chemistry.
I believe he is saying in the early universe, there were many more pocket protectors, but most were annihilated by anit-pocket protectors. Likely the same thing happened to most of the slide rules.
What a brilliant mind you have, Sir.

Thank you.
I used to tape two pocket protectors back to back: one side with yellow; orange; pink; green; blue; and purple highlighters. The other side: aqua and fuscia highlighters; red, green, purple, blue, and pink ink pens. Each writing implement had a different meaning. Believe it or not. For like 15 years.

@@kagannasuhbeyoglu All I ask is that you give it some thought.
The following was meant for someone else (Symmetry & Noether's theorem) but you can have a read:-
Symmetric wave functions (Bosons) are dual to anti-symmetric wave functions (Fermions). Waves or Bosons are dual to particles or Fermions -- quantum duality.
Symmetry is dual to conservation -- the duality of Noether's theorem.
Duality is the simplest symmetry:-
Thesis is dual to anti-thesis creates converging thesis or synthesis -- the time independent Hegelian dialectic.
Being is dual to non-being creates becoming -- Plato.
The conservation of duality (energy) will be known as the 5th law of thermodynamics, energy is duality, duality is energy.
Potential energy is dual to kinetic energy -- gravitational energy is dual.
Electro is dual to magnetic -- Maxwell's equations, electro-magnetic energy is dual.
The Proton (thesis) is dual to the Electron (anti-thesis) synthesizes the photon -- atoms.
Photons are synthesized from the duality of the positive (Proton) and the negative (electron)!
Fermions (Proton, Electron) are dual to Bosons (photon, force carriers).
Noether's theorem is literally proof that there is a 5th law of thermodynamics!
@@kagannasuhbeyoglu There are new laws of physics if you accept duality as real.
@@hyperduality2838 wow I never think about reality in this way!
I like the rabbit and duck graph. I stopped the animation at 45 degrees as it rotated. There, I could, for brief moments, see both duck and rabbit simultaneously. Perhaps, at the 45 degree mark, both-and take precedence over either-or. My question is: why is it necessary to see the duck OR the rabbit?
It's a visual analogy representing ideas and theories such as The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle; "If you know a particle's position, you cannot know it's momentum. If you know it's momentum, you cannot know it's position."
Interesting' respect from pakistsn
interesting lecture
The timescale of when what group of organisms emerged on Earth is of course highly complex and in many cases will likely remain unknown as most life doesn't fossilize though we might be getting close to learning something about the origin of Eukaryogenesis. Also some interesting stuff regarding the late emergence of oxygenation relative to photosynthesis suggesting that based on the study of modern pelagic photoferrotrophs that competition for resources may very well have surprised aerobic photosynthesis which needs shallower depths to gain usable amounts of light its an interesting argument.
GDP has serious problems namely the growth caused large scale wealth inequality and the lack of factoring in environmental costs and focus on short term benefits is thought to largely be the cause for many of our societies current issues thus its a bit of an iffy area.
It is worth mentioning that there are currently several challenges for cosmology that have appeared of late related to the rate of expansion and they are probably related.
First is while the cosmological principal works in the very early universe there is growing evidence ruling out the existence of any cosmological scale in the later universe. Ironically even the current model of cosmology lambda CDM doesn't need the cosmological principal as gravity quickly destroys it by the time of galaxies. I suspect this will tie into the distance ladder issues with the so called cosmological crisis related to the rate of cosmic expansion observed as if you have to actually compute the geometry of space at later timesteps due to the evolution of the universe you standard candles are not going to be so standard. Anisotropy is the rule not the exception in the low redshift universe even on the gigaparsec scale. After all if your premises are invalid the results are going to be off and the rate of expansion is built baked in with the cosmological principal which has already been shown to be invalid at gigaparsec scales in the low redshift universe.
The bit about symmetry in nature has generally *not* worked out as in there have been zero testable predictions which have been produced results rather there has been a lack of results beyond the standard model. It is very premature to say it is how the universe works especially as we don't live in anti-de sitter space. At least at this point.
Among dark matter candidates Axions along with sterile neutrinos do seem to be the best candidates with a much firmer foundation in observations than WIMP's ever had We have no reason to believe supersymmetry is real given the number of failed predictions the idea has had so far and the degree at which its parameters are tunable is problematic.

After army I decided to stop evading university. Alas ... mid-1970s, Skinner's ratropomorphic approach was still dominant. Which only server to validate my cynicism!
Thankfully, we now enjoy cognitive psychology, the scientific approach to the question of "How do we as persons, human individuals, make sense and give meaning to what we experience?"
that said, well met / stay well!
p.s. *!Losar! **_!Tashi delek and happy New Year of the Ox!_*
cognitive psychology is fine and for even more comprehensive understanding check out Carl Gustav Jung. It's like trying to figure out dark matter
@@zonderbaar Jung is over there, in the corner, along with Freud ... could not be more different than the science-based approach that's the foundation of the cognitive approach. (NB: Skinner pretended to science, but had no credible methodology.)
The semantics of "time passes differently for each person" or "a person experiences time differently" seems to be VERY important. If we define time by an atomic clock (which we do), then if atoms act differently at different velocities and acceleration fields it doesn't change the definition of time. My tongue-in-cheek question is: "how far in the future does something have to go before I can't see it any more?"

Emits some volts of lights on some things in this realty by Dr Frank for many people.
Is Frank Wilczek's new book, "Fundamentals - Ten Keys to Reality" considered matter? If it is, then this is the proof the mind (intention of Wilczek's consciousness to write a book) can create matter and the information in it (vs. the perspective that human brain matter is mind/consciousness into itself, no other energies or senses involved). However, shouldn't the accumulation of scientific knowledge be considered to be matter, which structurally forms the creation of new matter forms from our intentions (like the slide on accelerating World GDP), since it has resulted in new physical forms (like the quantum computers and other technology forms) as well as the acceleration of human information overall and physical productivity by human beings? Perhaps the brain evolved the 'senses' to other energy forms, rather than the cells within the brain existing as being the place of mind/consciousness into themselves.
Good insigtfull presentation and follow-up questions with the mind of a Noble Laureate!!
Time itself does not slow down, only the tools we use to measure it slow down.
Time is that which the clocks show, kid. We were trying to teach that to you when you were around five years old and were told how to read the clock. :-)
In his talk he mentions the ability to see and understand, within limits that we are slowly expanding, what the "real world" is. The structure (us) that is doing this observation and rule-making is INSIDE the reality and subject to its potential and restraints. However, it is NOT that reality. We can imagine things that are not possible with the actual universe that we are currently living in (if a multiverse with alternatives, maybe this restriction is somewhat eased), so it is obvious that our minds are not constrained by actual physical laws that prevent matter and energy from doing things not allowed by the rules, individually or in combination ("all the rules, all the time"). Yet we DO have an edge to our ability to think about things, beyond which is the "inconceivable" infinite range of "otherness" (the "blind spots") take over. Where this wall stopping comprehension is would, if mapped, help us understand how consciousness and intelligence work. Right now we do not even have an agreement as to what "consciousness" and "self-awareness" really are, as defined by any external physical laws we know of. Yet these do have (mostly unknown) rules -- we can usually discern genius from insanity, if sometimes with difficulty, so they are not the same thing, for example -- and thus our minds live in a "space" (dimension set, in the most general definition of "dimension" as a necessary parameter that can and must be measured in some way and mixed in to allow solutions to questions) that is not a physical space, though built onto the usual physical materials (we think) such as atoms and so forth. Note, however, like in flight, you have to have at least rudimentary wings PRIOR TO being able to fly, so this "mind space" has to be part of our universe from the beginning to allow us to come into being. Figuring out ways to find out about it is going to be harder than finding out about Dark Matter, which at least has some major influences on the external world directly.
Love the harmony and melody analogy. No Plastic Bertrand, pleaase, Monsieur.
I don’t recognise humility as correlation of the fact the universe is massive, not until we have evidence there’s consciousness somewhere out there (which there probably is, but until we are aware of it we can’t feel humble)
It sounds like 'mind emerges from matter' is a reasonable perception to hold, but would it really be that big a jump to say that mind _is_ matter (and vice versa)-just at varying levels of complexity and/or entanglement?
Wave emerges from water, but wave is not water
@@ThisNoName Yes, but what I said still works with what you're saying. Something that comes to my mind is integrated information theory. Awareness (which is different from consciousness-a rock cannot be aware) can be seen as an emergent phenomenon, but 'consciousness' would still have to be an intrinsic part of all things in order for awareness to actually emerge. A wave may emerge from water, but in order for a wave to form, water is required in the first place.
@@johnathanwalker7781 matter is required in the first place to have mass, do you insist mass is matter? Totally different, at least by human definition and description of the natural world. Of course, if you change definition, then anything is a yes.

oddly enough if you ask people to you that use the words "the universe" or just universe exactly what they mean by it, they never seem to have any idea at all because it is little more than a vague generalisation, which none can particularise or focus without reference to cognates and synonyms descriptions and circularity.they use the word and stop there seem to assume that simply because they have the word they also have the meaning or some understanding of it but when you ask them what it means to them they have no idea and that is because the word universe or the universe is a braub

It doesn't matter what's inside a black hole. It could be crushed photons with a few antiparticles. I could understand if an original formation of black holes was a bit unbalanced in matter antimatter, by say, one part in a billion.
Frrak is my new hero.
The "dark" energy and "dark" matter are most likely the quantum fields that exist everywhere which allow a fluctuation to create a particle.
I left some dark matter in the toilet this morning. Took a lot of energy. I couldnt detect any fields

You'd think that an eminent scientist could afford a decent internet connection, but no, apparently. Great presentation but I had to convert it to "radio" because watching the constant lag from his video feed was far too distracting.
Do I understand correctly: was the graviton first, the gravitational field first, out of which photons and its E/M field structures and particles emerged, at a later phase of an unfolding universe?
Gravity emerges first, a distribution of gravitons follows, and quantum physical reality emerges from certain conditions in the world of gravity.
If this is reasonable, this view would unite relativity to quantum physics.
While the current reality slowly marches its way to gravitational drains, E/M structures gradually break down on its way to gravitational (black) holes and structures, and in this structure of gravity, E/M waves arise as quantum particles turn into reality. The cycle in which quantum physics is born from the field of gravity, and disappear over the horizon of black holes again, giving birth to gravitational waves.
This is a closed loop or isn’t it?
not according to kip thorne
In vacuum the speed C is MAX for E.M.waves and MIN for GRAV. waves .Inside the horizon E.M.waves slow down
GRAV.waves speed up since they are soundwave like(compression-expansion)in a more dense environment .So,
inside the horizon fysics with C become less important .
REALITY IS THE BILL IN YOUR MAIL BOX !!!
What a refreshing talk. In science I trust... 🙏
As a physicist Frank is brilliant but as a philosopher he is 3rd class at best.
What I really want to know in watching a video on "What is Reality" is not how quarks behave, etc, but why quarks should exist at all, and what inherent principle dictates that the laws of physics are what they are as opposed to other imaginable laws of physics. To have a burning desire to understand this is an adventure in sheer frustration since I fear that no human has ever really had much of a clue save for overconfident hallucination. The universe appear to exist for the reason of sheer perversity.
Relativity dictates most of it.
Relativity doesn’t “dictate,” ffs. It’s an abstract model. Descriptions of things don’t dictate the things they describe, by any stretch of the imagination.
@@multi-mason I am not referring to relativity dictating reasons for existence of the universe, but asking if anything at all dictates why there must be "something" rather than nothing in the universe. I realize that it is a somewhat rhetorical question,since no one really knows for sure, but the question at least invites speculation.
Concerning relativity, sometimes I have seen literature that implies that relativity "dictates" that the speed of light is constant, but I think that would be misleading. The theory of special relativity did not *deduce* that the speed of light was constant. That had been an previous, experimental observation, which was an up-front assumption for special relativity, and really the constituting a key basis for everything that followed. The roots of relativity really go back to the 1800s.
If any physical law "required" existence of waves and particles, or details such as the specific value of the speed of light, it would be incomprehensible to the human mind to be unable to why such a law should exist. Yet when thinking about a "first" cause, the cause of causes, it seems like it cannot be a meaningful question. To ask "why" is asking about causality. Our notion of causality involves time, because the cause of anything must precede the thing in time. To ask why time exists therefore implies the existence of time in the very act of asking the question. Yet the question does not answer itself in any satisfying way.
As speculation, I think if you asked some all-knowing, super-advanced aliens why the universe has to be like this, they would laugh and say, "Oh, it *doesn't* have to be like this. It *isn't* like this. It is like *Everything*."
Typo: "incomprehensible to the human mind to be unable to *ask* why"
You think ol' Francesco thought to add those 20 pens to his front pocket pre-recording, just to give us what we all came here for? Or does he usually use 3 different yellow highlighters every day? Does he pre-load that pocket protector, or perhaps has something similar to those little revolving tie racks, but just with pocket protectors - each with a different loadout for whatever type of day he is in store for?? For example, if he is going to give a lecture, he can quickly and easily select the pocket protector with 2 or 3 real nice ball-points, and a nice lead-holder? Instead of his 'gardening' pocket protector, with the 3 bic pens, and a couple of #2 yellow pencils?
Come on people, what do you think is really going on?? Ugh, I need a drink.
Frank's pocket situation looks like intentional eccentricity to me.
Reality is realising your trousers don’t fit after snacking all through lockdown!
14:25 For anyone overwhelmed by the question of “What is Reality?”, the diagram at 14:25 will make everything perfectly clear. I can say that I didn’t truly understand reality until seeing this diagram.
OMG, You're right! The moment I saw this masterpiece it was like a transformation. Instantly once I saw it I knew exactly why I am here! Life will forever be simple after today. I feel so lite, as tho a huge weight has been lifted 14:25 is truly a transformation not only in understanding life, the universe, and everything in it but as far as diagrams go this is pure mastery.
Seriously tho MendTheWorld you just gave me the best laugh I've had in a long long time. You are truly a master of brilliant comments. xoxo
Since we live and build reality in our heads, the perceived size of the universe is immaterial. It’s as big as the designer of the simulation wants us to believe it is.
no need for religion and unknown knowables.. the whole point is we are getting closer and closer to the fundamental truth, and it has nothing to do with "simulations" or "gods"
Gravitational radiation ? If gravity is a result of the warping of spacetime by any mass and there fore a temporal issue , would a "graviton" be a "chroniton" ??
Doesn't the fact of time dilation and length contraction just feel like space has some sort of density?
I'm sorry, I don't understand how this has so many upvotes. The cohesion of the presentation is so strained by the style that speeding it up to 1.25x was not enough to get past the presenters stuttering and pauses in which he himself seems to get lost. I just couldn't get past the frustration of the first 20 minutes.
guy lives in a library
All books self written.
@@hundun5604 well he has enough pens to write all those books, and many more.
hawking points is some good evidence for penroses theory
That question about is time "itself" DIFFERENT from using clocks to measure it, seems to want to come up with some different kind of test like the one demonstrating the Cassimere Effect that shows that "virtual" particles actually have a short-time physical existence, since making the gap between test plates small can exclude the large virtual particles, which could not be true if they were just theoretical ghosts. How such a "sideways" test for time would work is not obvious, though...
There are no virtual particles. There are not even real particles. ;-)
@@schmetterling4477 Maybe there are "virtuous reality" particles as in an alternate universe parody by, I think, Harry Turtledove, about as universe based on "religious physics" where God and Science were BOTH in existence and things like calling Los Angeles "the City of Angels" was LITERALLY TRUE -- flying carpet link was their smog. Fun book!
Mother Nature equiped us with senses. Sight. Hearing Touch Smell and whatever comes into contact with these sences is what we perceive to be reality There may be other realities but they will be beyond what nature equiped us to percieve
Is the GDP chart not accounted for by inflation? The initial ramp up coincides roughly with the Napoleonic War and then the sharp rise coincides with the World War 2
What about the External Field Effect for dark matter?
Fake
Oh! Dudes. They need to add a spinning circular trivet on the existing spinning circular trays in a microwave and pair this with a magnetron that cuts off intermittently during a cooking cycle. This will give a looping corkscrew like trajectory of cooking food instead of a simple spinning in place orientation to the microwaves. It's just an additional gear and a solenoid switch. No ore be evenly cooked food at lower energies and reduced times.
More evenly cooked.
my intuition is that there is more to reality than revealed in this talk but turning intuition into something more concrete that's not so easy?
18:15 -- Complementarity Insight ^.^
47:00 Meta Data ^.^
So many pens in pocket....
If he makes a great new discovery he wants to be VERY SURE he can write it down.
The true sign of having climbed to the topmost rung of the covetted passionate about everything nerd ladder. 🖊🤓
its how constipated mathematicians work it out, with a pencil (more humor)
I have a pencil a crayon and sharpie in my pocket. So i can write on any surface at any time.
so many book placed right behind his seat, how does he even leave his chair.
if and when we do fully understand quantum will we master our universe ? i love space eire
As a physicist Frank is brilliant but as a philosopher he is 3rd class at best.

While still open minded as this lecture begins to stream, I'm disappointed to observe the difference between the speaker's own title "What Reality Has Taught Me" and a clickbait title "What is Reality?" used to post this lecture within TH-cam.
it's good
Antiprotons can be produced by partical accelerators like Cern's LHC.
This done by smashing protons in to a metal target, at close to the speed of light producing, high temperature, and pressure.
Sun has high temperature protons , neucli of metals, and pressure.
If antineutrons / neutron pairs are produced they would decay into a antiproton, protons, positron, electrons, antineutrino, and neutrinos.
Antiprotons would be attracted to protons, and anililate immediately returning back to energy, and the same would happen to positron, and electrons.
Neutrinos being neutral, that would not anililate this explains why neutrinos are more abundant.
The Sun would emit photons / antiphons, and protons in the solar wind being a matter producing machine.
The Sun beig a positive charge the body holding, negative charged antiproton storing the antimatter in the form of energy ?
So, with "Complementarity" you CAN have incompatible things happening at once, as long as you only study one part and exclude the other, switching back and forth as necessary. This kind of "kicks sand" on Einstein, though, who thought that such things must means we are missing something fundamental somewhere to think that this is an acceptable way to do science. If he is wrong, then our universe is a much more complex and "blurry" place.
All those pens are actually antenna 😅

Does this guy seriously think there's an invisible magic skydaddy?!? He sure does deal with the first crackpot quite gently, though.
What was the deleted video on this one there was four videos with what happened
"Insert smart quote"
God??And christmas gift??? Huh 6:23!! How did You get that Overview?? I wonder
.. so there's little possibility for the universe to be harboring matter in one corner and antimatter in the opposite corner
What is reality ? Never as good as you imagined. Stay in your dream world X.
Complementarity = two sides of the same coin = duality!
The glass of water is half full -- optimist, the glass of water is half empty -- pessimist.
Optimism is dual to pessimism.
Certainty is dual to uncertainty -- the Heisenberg certainty/uncertainty principle.
Space is dual to time -- Einstein.
Gravitation is equivalent or dual to acceleration -- Einstein's happiest thought, the principle of equivalence (duality).
Energy is dual to mass -- Einstein.
Dark energy is dual to dark matter.
Positive curvature is dual to negative curvature -- Gauss, Riemann Geometry.
Curvature or gravitation is therefore dual, gravitational energy is dual.
Potential energy is dual to kinetic energy.
Apples fall to the ground because they are conserving duality.
Action is dual to reaction -- Sir Isaac Newton.
Syntropy (prediction) is dual to increasing entropy -- the 4th law of thermodynamics!
Teleological physics (syntropy) is dual to non-teleological physics (entropy).
"Always two there are" -- Yoda.
Objective is dual to subjective.
Complexity is dual to simplicity.
Particles are dual to anti-particles, spin up is dual to spin down -- Dirac equation.
Electro is dual to magnetic -- Maxwell's equations, electro-magnetic energy is dual, waves are dual to particles -- quantum duality.
Energy is duality, duality is energy.
Duality creates reality.
