Description: Juan Maldacena, a quantum physicist at the Institute of Advanced Study (IAS), on a new quantum-reality theory. He is often called 'the new Einstein'.
Contributor Information: Juan Maldacena
I'm glad to see Ralph Finnes found a stable career in physics.
the constant physicist
th-cam.com/video/_NQSv22TD2c/w-d-xo.html
certainly there's a relativity theory to be had there somewhere!
Nailed it.
Big whopping laugh --!!
Maldacena deserves a prize for patience, the interviewer had no idea what he was talking about. I was hoping to hear about some new hypothesis, but the interviewer couldn't get past the basics.
This guy is SO remarkable, just listen to his grasp of these most complex subjects in physics. He makes it sound so simple, and I love how humble he sounds. Not an ounce of luster.
If you’re going to interview someone, especially on a very difficult topic, PERHAPS you should prepare just a little!
Exactly. By the end he makes very silly questions
What's so difficult about the topic?
@@dshiang are you implying quantum mechanics and general and special relativity are easy subjects? if so, I'd like to introduce you to David Dunning and Justin Kruger.
@@JusSomeGuyOnInternet Ah yes, the old "I've watched SEVERAL animated youtube videos that skim the surface of quantum mechanics, so I totally understand the subject". Which almost always comes out of the mouth of someone who struggled with algebra in highschool
@@dshiang It's hard to spell dumbass!
That interviewer is a waste of spacetime.
:)
Worst then a 6 year old
I don't think he was a science journalist tbf
Oh that made me laugh 😂
He is a waste of meat
Physicist explained relativity and string theory and quantum mechanics and the interviewer goes... So can you fix TV and car? 😂
I agree with Michael Palmer. Asking Maldacena to fix a TV is a bit like asking Einstein to mend a clock. Rather misses the point.
None of us after watching this interview: 'I wonder why the interviewer isn't showing his face?'
The interviewer is discovering relativity while the subject is beyond relativity...
The interviewer needs to interview his 3rd grade classmates. Nothing new in the interview. Golly, Gee Whiz
hes not, they literally mentioned einstein, that right there is relation
Interviewer: Can you make me understand string theory?
Juan: You know how interviewers can ask dumb questions?
Interviewer: That’s related to string theory?
Juan: No. They’re just both relevant to this interview.
There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers.
~ Einstein
@@JayPixx ;)
string theory has been proven to not work?
😂😂😂
@@cucumber_999 yo
"Do you feel something like something, like something, err, somewhat, err, err, somebody or something like that?" This is some hardline questioning.
Juan Maldacena tries to explain the similarities between quantum chromodynamics and gravitational theories, but the interviewer is unaware of the general theory of relativity, including Newton's physics. It seems an impossible mission. 😆
Jajajaja
The whole point is to be able to explain it to somebody who doesn’t understand.
@@smokey04200420 Not really. If you don't hold a PHd or at least has some solid understanding of thermodynamics, gravitational physics, quantum mechanics, general relativity, mathematics (Calculus) and photoelectric effect then is not possible to get a basic understanding of these topics. This is not a conversation to have out of the lab with a person without formal studies.
Juan Maldacena a humble and brilliant genius and very patient.He deserves a Nobel Prize in physic! Hi from Sweden!
Yes he does, but he is a theoretic physicist.
The novel prize is only given to experimental physicist
Juan Maldacena deserves a nobel prize for putting up with this interviewer, he should not have wasted his time!🤨
@@abistonservices9249 Nobel Prize for Peace.
Barely so.
@@itssanti Wrong. There are several counterexamples there recent one being Sir Roger Penrose. No "new Einstein" either, IMHO.
Managed untill 24:41. Then I died of cringe. Judging by the comments, apperently I’m not alone.
He is so humble and patient though!
Unbelievable! I paused at 24:38, so just 3 seconds sooner. :D I just couldn't bear it anymore :))
Lasted until 5:37
This interview is hilarious.
Interviewer: "How does television work"
Juan:......well?!....
What an idiot this guy asking the question
th-cam.com/video/nMG2PQ7oIr0/w-d-xo.html
Ofcourse he's the next Einstein thanks to this interviewer.. anyone who knows there ABCs is Einstein to this interviewer.
Brilliant man, terrible interview.
So this is what happens when a toddler is in charge of an interview.
I admire Maldacena for his patience with the interviewer. On the other hand, the bad interviewer made Maldacena explain the great ideas in a way that any one of us benefits from
It. 🤓
This is the most patient physicist in all of spacetime. That interviewer...🤦🤦🤦
Yeah if he had Richard Feynman this interview would be very short. But points to this man being so patience.
My dad liked to fix things, while my mom (on the other hand), liked to have things fixed 😂
Interviewer - “You said nature?”
Interviewee - “🤯”
Interesting fundamental interview, I liked it.
Malcadena is brilliant but I would reserve the term "New Einstein" for someone who actually succeeds in creating a working quantum gravity theory.
Good point, but this is how "television works" hastily naming Madacenas "second Einstein" and Bidens "next president".
@Jim Whitehead This is a good proof of the Poe's law.
@Jim Whitehead wtf?
@Jim Whitehead Lost about 10kg of your marbles?
@Brad Watson This is an extremely confused mish mash of theories completely inconsistent with one another. You CANNOT at the same time claim the Universe exists because it is our playground i.e. consciousness or observer as creators of the Universe and also impute the responsibility to God.
As far as this is a 1 in 2trillion chance occurrence of a suitable configuration for life or quantum tunnelling being the birth canal for the Universe. What is your proof, where is the evidence?
This is nothing but wild speculation my friend. Why don't you simply accept the Creator as the explanation for this Universe and not try to evade or obfuscate that fact with these vanities?
One of the most incredible minds in Science. What a pleasure to have this incredible man in our lifetime. Felicidades Juan, eres un orgullo Hispano. Te queremos gordo!
the equivalent of a child asking a parent questions the parent struggles answering because the childs brain hasn't developed enough knowledge on the basics of whatever they curious about, the interviewer has that amount of knowledge on basic physics, which is frustrating if not insulting to juan that the guy hasn't bothered doing some homework first.
th-cam.com/video/nMG2PQ7oIr0/w-d-xo.html
XD
What a shame Juan Maldacena was interviewed by Borat.
Spot on :-)
Poor Juan, he had a hard time explaining basics to the interviewer
@Jim Whitehead Thanks!! Everything is much clearer now!
@Jim Whitehead If "action" is defined as a force, physical work or information, then it should be stated clearly that entanglement cannot communicate action between two entangled particles. What happens in entanglement is that a measurement on one entangled particle yields a random result, then a later measurement on another particle in the same entangled (shared) quantum state must always yield a value correlated with the first measurement. Since no force, work, or information is communicated (the first measurement is random), the speed of light limit does not apply (see Quantum entanglement and Bell test experiments). In the standard Copenhagen interpretation, entanglement demonstrates a genuine nonlocal effect of quantum mechanics, but does not communicate information, either quantum or classical.
Einstein's worry about "spooky action at a distance" does not actually violate special relativity.
@Jim Whitehead You seriously think there are no physicists who have tried to disprove Einstein? His work was pretty much an insult to every other physicist at the time who had spent their whole life thinking that time was absolute throughout the universe.
@@Rk-ws3ex bingo you hit the jackpot. Buy the man some ointment you judt burned him to the 7th degree
@Jim Whitehead many highly intelligent people have spent their lives trying to disprove Einstein, relativity still holds true. What is your experiment to disprove it? How can you explain all the questions that relativity answers?
I think Leonard Susskind is better at explaining these things to the general public.
He might have lost patience with this interviewer tho.
The camera 🎥 work at 3:40 😂
"Must watch" - means I almost certainly won't, especially if it's over an hour!
This is such a great video. I always thought I understood spacetime in principle, but also I never really "got it". But listening to this man really gave me the light bulb in the brain moment. I really get it now. Light speed being the constant and his explanation of the relationship with spacetime really helped clear it up for me.
He should’ve been interviewed by Robert L Kuhn on his TH-cam series Closer To The Truth.
He was: th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=closer+to+truth+juan+maldecena
He was
The interviewer tells Maldacena that he cannot understand him hahahahahaha
43:41 When Maldacena reached the essence of his theory that "entanglement results from connectivity in space-time" ... the reporter wanted to go back to the begining! .... why? ... why?
Great camera work.
😂
how did this interviewer get access to conduct this interview?
I wasn't blown away by an interview with Einstein here.. The interviewer was asking questions completely unrelated to his field of expertise, and the interviewee didn't have some grand or novel insight on quantum theory or relativity, or how they may be unified. I feel like i wasted my time hearing a guy off the street try to learn about physics. Thanks for the misleading title!
@@micro-emprendimientos.1642 Ive been watching his lectures since I stumbled across this video!! I'd learned of his contributions to science by watching pbs space time videos, but it never clicked while watching this that he is the guy who discovered ads-cft correspondence. After learning who this man is, and what he has done I can fully appreciate the abysmal interview that this was lol. I meant no insult to mr maldacena, he actually could be comparable to Einstein, that just wasn't possible to see in this interview
Edit and after learning who he is and what he did my original comment seems particularly stupid hahah
I must say when you decide to interview a professor in quantum physics you should know a lot more about the subject. to sit there and ask questions such as is the speed of light constant just shows how unprepared and uneducated you must be.
If you are still struggling to understand basic concepts in physic, you are not entitled to decide if anybody is the next Einstein.
This felt like listening to one of Borat's pranks when interviewing ppl
Worst interviewer in the history of space-time
This should be called "How not to Interview" and certainly no Einstein, yet. I understood what he was saying, it is all in books. As a kid, I rebuilt car engines but not televisions. But I did find a few on the local tip, take them home and repair them ( the old black & white ones with valves).
Imagine if the universe is just a ballon some kid has blown up and all we are is some quark floating around inside 😀😀
The fact that the interviewer sounded surprised about matter being made out of particles within 5 minutes of a 70 minute video is a terrible sign.
This interviewer should not be interviewing people like Juan.
Anyway, you need to thank him for this interview.
@@carmenmoldoveanu4897 Thank who? The interviewer? I don't think so...
Certainly Juan for taking valuable time out of his day to speak.
So this is my view. Imagine a 3D sphere is moving trough 2D space. The observer in 2D space would see a point, growing to a line going bigger, then suddenly the line would become smaller to a point and the object then would disappear. The 2D observer would not see the cause but would see and feel the consequence. He would feel the gravity etc. He would not be able to penetrate the 3D sphere because of the 2D laws but would rather stick to the event horizon. Now that being explained, image now a 4D object moving trough 3D-space. You can see the consequence (time being distorted, gravity and energy of black matter and dark energy) but we cannot see or understand the cause. We also cannot penetrate a black hole but rather stick to the event horizon, because you need 4D laws to penetrate the 4D black hole. This also applies to quantum mechanics. For example a foton is a wave, until you measure it and it becomes a particle. In 4D space it has always been a wave, only when it penetrates our 3D world by observing, we only see the particle.
Energy is finite, as you probably know, this is the reason why nothing with mass can reach the speed of light. As a proton reaches the speed limit, its waves are flattened, it loses its wavelength and goes back to being aether. Slow down the system and it reappears... as required by local spacetime conditions. For a single proton to reach the speed of light, it would require more than all the energy available to the universe. Because energy is finite and the speed of light needs to be kept constant for fields to work in the allowable speed range (0 to 300,000 km/s), there is time dilation and space contraction for material systems moving at relativistic speeds.
Disaster interviewer. He obviously knows nothings of relativity and quantum mechanics.
He may believe the opposite because he was talking to many of THEM who knows. LOL
If your that good at your job you'll soon find out the TRUE nature of reality and it's designer .
Couldn't stomach more than 3 or 4 minutes of the interviewer. Know your topic. Ask intelligent questions.
The only way this interview would make sense would be if the camera panned around and it was Zach Galifianakis asking the questions. With nerdy black glasses and a pocket protector and a clipboard. And a pipe.
I'm hard of hearing and the terrible audio quality made this interview a disgraceful was nof time
These are the worst questions I’ve ever had to listen to. Completely unprepared.
At 06:05 it sounds sounded like space and time collided. Pfffert. I cant stop laughing.
Since the speed of light, hence the propagation speed of fields, must remain constant for all the other fundamental constants to continue to be proportionally the same, mass (process) has to increase in order to keep up, but to a limit. Once we go over the speed limit and fields can no longer keep up, matter disintegrates. When we reach the speed of light, wavelength and frequency drop to zero, waves become flat, devoid of any information, and we are back to being immaterial empty space.
This video is so insulting to Juan, please remove it. Your ignorance on the subject makes it very difficult to follow.
Somewhere in the multi-verse 42 mice are laughing their asses off!
I know. I simulated them.
The signal detected with the LIGO project is due to frequency shift of light used in the interferometre caused by a local heterogeneously universe rather than is due to curvature of spacetime as a consequence of gravitational wave transition at the earth's position.
Professor Leonard Susskind at Stanford has described Juan Maldacena as the world's greatest living physicist. He's truly a genius.
When I see 'must watch', that's when I know I can skip.
a message to this man
dont think gravity comes from mass
gravity is a quality of space
more gravity = less space
collected mass is less space
a region of less space caused the collection of mass
the outer universe has more gravity causing the inner universe to fall into higher states of gravity
gravity caused the big bang
WHY DOES IT FEEL LIKE A PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC SESSION.🧐🤯
Maldacena looks like Ralph Fiennes 😂
Who the bloody hell is this interviewer, the interviewer should at least know his stuff! The physics scientist had a hard job with him! 🤨
I think the main problem with the interviewer is that he doesn't know English well enough. And because of this, he was not able to express the questions clearly. At least I was not able to understand what he meant several times...
51:20 the best question of all time
🤣🤣🤣🤣
A proper theory does not require postulates. Einstein just did not think well enough.
Since the aether's energy is finite, time and space will contract and dilate accordingly, while mass will increase or decrease. Reality automatically adjusting itself to present spacetime conditions as matter follows Nature's fundamental laws. Because it is physically finite, matter and energy are also finite at any given moment, but infinite as a function of time and transformation. Even though proportions and ratios are kept constant, spacetime dimensions must be constantly adjusted to fit each inertial frame.
the interviewer seems to have 0 knowledge, lol
I feel like at one point in the video there was a pause, and when it came back the scientist’s demeanor had changed.
I don’t know it for a fact, but I wonder if they had to pause recording, because he was upset with the interview’s line of off topic questions born of misunderstanding , and total lack of having researched these concepts beforehand.
This performance had me cringing with embarrassment. `mathematics is not my thing` we got that, but are still wondering what IS your thing? Multiple pauses, numerous ers` and ums`, followed by the non question of the year! He could have been much more interesting if he had asked some advanced questions like:- 1/ What is your favourite colour. 2/ has it always been, or did it change anytime. 3/ what is your lucky number? 4/ Why? 5/ do you have a pet doggy? This could almost convince me of parallel universes. In some of the others, the interviewer asks pertinent and structured questions. I give up.
Yep. Greatest interviewer in the world said no one ever.
new einstein doesnt go beyond first year university physics to not completely lose the incompetent interviewer
Is the cameraperson an apprentice high school student??
There will never be another einstein.he took us as far as we are now. For us to take the next step, we need totally different thinkers
The Hawking Radiation Theory Explained
In a simplified version of the explanation, Hawking predicted that energy fluctuations from the vacuum cause the generation of particle-antiparticle pairs of virtual particles near the event horizon of the black hole. One of the particles falls into the black hole while the other escapes before they have an opportunity to annihilate each other. The net result is that, to someone viewing the black hole, it would appear that a particle had been emitted.
Since the particle that is emitted has positive energy, the particle that gets absorbed by the black hole has negative energy relative to the outside universe. This results in the black hole losing energy, and thus mass (because E = mc2).
Smaller primordial black holes can actually emit more energy than they absorb, which results in them losing net mass. Larger black holes, such as those that are one solar mass, absorb more cosmic radiation than they emit through Hawking radiation.
It's the bad guy from Beyond The Black Rainbow
Matter of the universe is predominantly based on "fields" where "particles" appear to be condensations of the fields.
Concise and sexy voice ,zero on ego ,aww Im in love ,sorry ill stop being creepy lol
He's top notch....so its not too creepy
The speed of light sets the scales. For fields to continue to work regardless of spacetime conditions, there must be time and spatial distortions between the observer and the observed when moving at relativistic speeds. This is where the principles of relativity and equivalency come from. Because a field's speed must not change regardless of relative motion, and because energy is finite, for reality to work, all parameters must be adjusted around the speed of light. This is how and why we get time dilation and length contraction.
Space and time are actors, not part of the stage. This is by far the most beautiful analogy I've heard.
Now I'm thinking that maybe when a black hole is created, it becomes a part of the stage.
The speed of light is constant at the earth's postion in the Multiverse but it varied on the cosmic scale.
This is because the speed of light as the escape velocity depends on the cosmic potential that is :
c = (G × M × r^-1)^(1/2)
where M ~ 10^53 kg is the mass of universe, and r ~ 10^26 m is the radius of universe at the earth's position.
The empirical equation connecting the cosmic acceleration to the speed of light with the Hubble parameter supports this point of view that is :
a = c × H
Or
a = r × H^2
Since
c = r × H
With
c = (G × M × r^-1)^(1/2)
And
H = (G × M × r^-3)^(1/2)
Where M is the mass of universe, r is the radius of universe, andH is the Hubble parameter.
As you see it is difficult to make changing the speed of light because this requires an amount of kinetic energy higher than the potential energy that is :
E = G × M × m × r^-1 = m × c^2
Where M ~ 10^53 kg is the mass of universe, r ~ 10^26 m is the radius of universe at the earth's position, and m is the mass of photon.
For the same reason the speed of light is constant at the earth's position whatever the speed of observer.
May I suggest that the best candidate for "atoms of spacetime" might be "expanding" gravitons. Expanding gravitons continually expand from a point, everywhere in space. They expand at the speed of light. They are normally spherical. The outer shell is a virtual photon, unless energized which makes it a real photon. The interior of an expanding graviton is made of quantum states for position, momentum. Expanding gravitons fill all space with quantum states for position/momentum. what is spacetime? A place to put particles! Particles are put into quantum states of position, which they inhabit in a somewhat probabilistic way.
The analytical process of mind is embedded in linear time. The threshold horizon is the realization of this impediment.
How does this influence the existence of space and time?
How does this influence the nature of human and all life?
I think the best is to say WE DON'T KNOW YET, electron is a particle or a field, or both. If there was a big bang, that allowed infinite mass to ESCAPE, the current black holes could not exist, right?
The lost Ali G interview?
I am glad to see David Bohm reincarnated and back at work so soon. Check out his conversations with Jiddu Krishnamurti
Poor Juan .regrettable the interview
I feel very sorry to see Juan struggling with this interviewer, put me off entirely! 🤨
Couldn't watch much of this due to the ineptness of the interviewer, but at least I got to see Maldacena describe himself at 0:20 (according to the subtitles) as the 'girl flying bird professor'.
43 minutes of Juan having to repeat himself and THEN 43:45
back to the beginning again!? are you SLOW BRO?! (the look on Juan's face realizing he's getting nowhere with this guy is priceless).
The time of this video would be much shorter if it was not for this interviewer.
Voldemort without a wand.
At the end he just gave up on the interviewer
The reason we have problem to define time is because time in intangible vs space and matter. We know exist because we know past exists.
If we somehow could return to the past and observe what we know it happened then we can define and understand that dimension. We cannot however ever go to the future but we could calculate the probability of what will happened in the future.
I wouldn't say Maldecena is the "new einstein". But he does have some radical ideas.
I cannot finish this interview. The interviewer is terrible
If you are directly in touch with reality, then you see it for what it truly is. Sadly, today's physicists are not in touch with reality, but instead they are still positioned at a distance from it. As a consequence of this, progress in the world of physics has been slow over the last 100 years. However, if you were directly in touch with reality, thus being in touch with the big truth, you in turn need not be dependent upon any beliefs nor dis-beliefs, and nothing can hold you back. On the other hand, if you are still located at a distance from the truth and thus still depend upon beliefs and dis-beliefs, then you are located within the zone of less than truth. And so if you also choose to stick to your beliefs and dis-beliefs, then you have also chosen to accept only less than truth. This leads to fascinating results. Even if you place the truth directly in front of the noses of the believers/disbelievers, they will reject it in a flash due to them only accepting less than truth.
No one can be compared to Einstein
The interviewer doesn’t have a clue, it’s quite disrespectful of him wasting this guy’s time.
Ralph...very stable
Particle.
Wow that guy has a huge brain!
Whilst the interviewed was only partly successful to try to explain his ideas, the interviewer was completely away from what should be an interview. Questions were more fuzzy than the answers. He was completely unable to formulate properly the questions. Wonder how this guy had such a patience to answer these questions.
Does all matter become regenerated and re-constituted at singularities??
Can this explain aging and death?
I am able to conceptualise the commonly used space-time thought experiment where one observers clock ‘appears’ slower compared to another, who is travelling a different speed. We talk about the observer ‘perceiving’ this relative difference, and I wonder what implications invoking consciousness into the explanation has?
Could we also explain time dilation as also occurring to non-conscious things, such as on the half-life of radioactive decay of uranium 234 for example? If we took 1kg of Ur 234 and left it here on Earth and took another 1kg of Ur234 and put it on a space craft and sent it out close the speed of light, would there be a physical difference in the amount of Ur234 remaining because of time dilation? Or does this only apply conceptually to observing conscious beings?
