- “Quantum Theory Made Easy,” a series in which the concepts of quantum physics are broken down for layaudiences in a more digestable manner. More in-depth than most presentations for laypersons, but without the mathematical rigour needed by a specialist in the field.
So, you've heard that light is a wave/particle. Now you get to find out how we know this!
In this episode, we’ll be discussing the dual nature of light, starting with a brief overview of how light was determined to be an electromagnetic wave and what properties light was classically associated with. From there, we’ll present the results of Planck’s blackbody experiments and introduce the concept of quantization, which was how this whole quantum mess was started in the first place. After explaining how the quantum of action (h) works, we’ll move on to how it showed up in experiments that challenged the wave picture of light, and how Einstein, bremsstrahlung, and Compton, made it clear that light can behave like a particle.

Now being 34...I really wish I could go back and take physics in high school/university. Hated the physics at the time and didn’t seem how it was important. but man does it fascinate me now
School is really good at making the most fascinating subjects feel boring. I didn't like history back in high school and now it's one of my favourite things. I was always fascinated by scientific subjects in general and physics was something I was interested in, but in school it was among my worst subjects. Of all the academic subjects I studied in school, I think I've learned much more on my own than at school, with the sole exceptions of History of Art and Latin (I'm Italian and those were mandatory in my school; also, I'm considering brushing up on my Latin and learning new stuff even there, but I'll probably give priority to languages that are still in use)
Agreed! And may i add, the social aspect of school (competitiveness, coolness, distractions, immaturity and all of the bs that happens in school) contributed to so much anxiety that i believe it interfered with my ability to learn math and science properly. Now in my 40’s i can focus thus understand these subjects so much more (not to mention videos like these on youtube university for real!)
It is truly fascinating for sure!
@@brodericksiz625 yes agreed! Exactly this! Can we say that maybe school itself is the worst subject lol!
Likewise
There's always time! Grab a high school or undergrad level book and I'm sure you'll understand it with enough motivation. :D
Thank you for taking the time to watch this video. I understand that it’s extremely dense (electromagnetism was summarized in five minutes) so you may need to watch it a couple of times in order for the contents to stick. Because so much background information needed to be covered in a relatively short amount of time, this episode will probably be more dense than all of the future ones, so just be patient with it and feel free to ask me to clarify anything that seemed unclear to you.
***** OWOOO!! OWOOO!!! OWOOO!!!
...I study and do research in physics. Soon I'll add "teaching undergraduates" to that
King Crocoduck Awesome vid, thx!
King Crocoduck Question. Are there any books that highlight the actual experiments done in a historical order of discovery. that verified electromagnetism and quantum mechanics. Books that show the experimental set ups and the process of the experiments. I want to know HOW these things were discovered with the equipment used. I don't have access to physics labs.
***** none that I know of, though Freedman and Young's "University Physics" covers all of the essentials. To get started, look up TH-cam videos in this order:
Coulomb charge experiment
Ampere circuit experiment
Faraday mutual induction experiment
Hertz EM wave experiment
that covers the essentials of electromagnetism.
King Crocoduck
Thank you King. I appreciate your help.
As a former professor of physics and laser/optical scientist I think this is the clearest, most phenomenal teaching video on this subject that I have ever seen. The visuals and clarity of the narration make it a must-see for all physics classes when they reach this portion of the curriculum. Bravo!
John German What do you think about the simulation theory?
Thank you for being a teacher! I agree. As a former physics student who is more of a conceptual thinker, the “be quiet and do math” approach was my destruction. This video actually brought many of the concepts together and into focus. I’m sure many people learned a ton, I know I did. Really nice work croc.
@John C. Considering it has little to no scientific backing, calling it a theory is insulting to all other theories. It SHOULD be called the simulation hypothesis.
It's the best BS I've seen.
@Champion Mendoza more like the black mother
As a Physics student myself, I say bravo! You're the kind of people who make TH-cam a better place :D
I agree
Time travel on a quantum level ,if we could time travel then things can be changed go were we want and so on ,but in quantum time travel the particles are open to time travelling quantum levels this means they are every were and at every point they could ever be if this is the case then only when we observe them do they behave as we would expect them to because at this point they are now in are reality as a perspective of are view on time ,so this is what i have come up with and this also works for spooky action from a distance and probably explains most if not all of the quantum physics how they have this ability is beyond me but i believe this is a step towards understanding quantum physics, iv named it QUANTUM TIME TRAVEL.
I agree too, thanks for explanation.
We at the catholic church have always opposed and fought scientific advancement and understanding of everything always. Send us money.
Helllo my friend. As someone who spent some time in both catholic school and in the physics academic environment, I can assure you neither is perfect in expression. I’ve met some of the best scientific thinkers of my life in the catholic environment, and some of the worst and most biased in the academic environment. I assure you, HUMANS everywhere are imperfect. Truth can have more than just one form, God is truth. Seek joy and truth wherever you are.
Many heartfelt thanks to everyone that made this video possible. I only hope one day I will have a "moment" of clarity that will lead to a deeper understanding of this.
Thank you for properly introducing the world of Quantum Mechanics to me. I've got a BS in Math and I did well in my Classical Physics with Calculus classes I took while I was in college, but I never found the time in my class schedule to delve any deeper in the subject despite having a desire to do so. Once I got out of college, I have tried, on a couple of occasions, to return to the subject and ,develop a basic understanding of modern physics so that I could, at least, be scientifically literate on the subject. Your videos are by far the best resource I have come across in my pursuit of this goal. I just want to say thank you for making this wonderful series of videos.
Im a first year physics student and I used to watch these videos before I was in college and never fully understood it. We actually covered this material in the last part of the course and now I understand almost of all of this. Minus the calculus. I take calculus 1 this spring. But I was beginning to lose motivation and actually having 2nd guesses and wondering what I was doing with my life. Until I watched this video a year later and I understand!! Which reignited my love for physics!!! I love physics so much.
You just explained the first 5 chapters of my modern physics textbook. Very good explanation and visualization. Thank you!
This is really well presented. The weirder quantum discoveries get, the more satisfying and beautiful it all seems. Love the odour analogy
I learned tons from this video. I believe it's because you have serious ability to explain in a story line while touching the deeper concepts without losing focus on the lay mind. This was simply excellent and I'm off to part 2. Thank you for opening up quantum theory more for me.
Dance like a butterfly, sting like bee. Oh, I mean, move like a wave, interact like a particle.
Joe Sompolinsky wonder where he learned it?...
The enlightened ones around us are still only getting a piece of the whole picture, look everywhere
The true characteristics of light are that of a vortex.
That might be blowing in the winds of cosmic energies, maybe get gassed up, and turbo boosted on the rhythm into heaven.
Listen to the trumpet rhyme
This video delivers what it states. Excellent introduction to modern physics.
Fantastic video. Often you find videos that are too simplified (i.e. only using analogies and ignoring the math). I enjoy your focus on the math and theory behind the science. Well done!
Billions of $$'s spent on public education, and I've learned 90% of what I know through videos like this. WHY???!!
Because this stuff is specialized. They can’t afford to have extremely specific classes for every possible subject, that only one or two students will take. It would be absurd to pay a teacher 60k a year to teach one extremely specific class to very few students. This is what college is for. But that’s just my humble opinion.
Sorry but that only shows how little you know. Even about QM. And current facts about QM are very far off, theres no chaos, theres no randomness, its only temporary answers while we solve it. The most stupid thing i heard about QM is Filippenko saying that if you bounce a ball many enough times it will eventually pass right to the floor. When "leading scientists" say such things its easy to get misled, just remember that they say it only because they have nothing sensible to say yet. Soon though, breakthroughs will come.
This is the best explanation of QM and the ever important history of its development that is so often neglected in "traditional schooling" that i have ever seen. Thank you so much for this excellent production!
Holy crap! Why couldn't have have found this *before* starting my Master's thesis.
Best simplistic, intuitive, comprehensive, step-by-step in visual and mathematical terms...lesson on early physics and quantum physics I've seen or read about in my lifetime (withstanding many books and countless videos). Kudos and thanks.
Wow, I stopped by to check the video for 1-3 min but I stayed the whole time, my mouse pointing at X to close the window but I never clicked :D Very nice video, good sound quality, animations are good too. Good job.
All this stuff about quanta--now my head Hertz! It's as though someone hit my head with a Planck. . . .

Well Done ! Excellent Video !! I like how you begin your explanations with descriptions of the original experiments and follow the thought process of the physicists ( and not just out of the blue give a formula and call it good)....
pearls before swine in regards to myself. but the greater credit goes to you for taking the time for taking the attempt.
thank you.

Excellent storyline introducing the most complex subject in the universe, the best visuals, non-invasive audio, and soothing narration!!!
Thank you, and we want more!!!
YES!, This is what I've been looking for, a narrator that isn't computerized...
Thanks :)
Nothing bothers me more then clicking on a video only to get a narrator that speaks monotone.
What an excellent presentation! Thank you; I will indeed be watching it at least a couple of times. I really appreciate the clarity of your explanation and the quality of your graphics. The density is just right. Thanks again.

Wow, this was great. I can tell you really put a lot of work into this, and you managed to make the concepts really clear, which is a big deal when we're talking about Q.M. I look forward to the rest of the series ^~^
I genuinely enjoyed this video.

Ευχαριστώ
Thank you very much for informative presentation. Merci.Gracias.Danke
I have to call my new d
Where this explanation goes into the weeds is the assumption that photoelectric-effect electrons are particles and that the illuminating light (photon) has to build up steam over time with multiple photons pumping the electron (like a childs swing) until it clears the energy barrier and flies away - like a fire heats a kettle of water until it steams.
Electrons are not particles. The orbital electron is a wave smeared around the surface of the atomic shell. It is not a golf ball on a string.
The ejecton of a photoelectron (or just kick to a higher orbital) is a resonance action that occurs at the speed of C.
All the single photon has to have is an energy (frequency/color) that is just high enough to resonate the electron over the top of the energy barrier with one kick (one photon). Any excess energy left over from that photon after the resonance coupling/kick is converted to heat.
9:35 lol pic of plank planking killed me xD
I've watched over 100 videos on quantum mechanics. This one may well be the best! Wonderful!
You are the first person to explain QM so that anyone can understand it. Hats off to you sir.
Excellent video. I've been studying physics concepts on my own. Your video is one of the best explanations of Quantum Theory I have come across.
wow thnx i usually listen to docs to sleep but this is my cup o tea
I wish that TH-cam content like this was available in the 1980s when I took quantum mechanics course. In those days information was only conveyed in your text book or professor drawing on a chalk board. If you couldn't understand a three dimensional concept, the mathematic representation quickly became nonsense. Animated models are great to help visualize the basic math formulas. Great series!
I have listened to many such lectures and yours is one of the most engaging and easily understood....Using the ramp vs stairs analogy was brilliant....well done!
I never really cared for physics until I started studying particle physics in high school.
I hated mechanics, i loved particles
Billy Kotsos 😆
The narrative style is good.Its like we r gradually going inside a story.Representing physics with ideas instead of mathematical representation is really an encouragement for the general to develop interest in it,i nstead of thinking it boring
@11:30 “if you only knew the magnificence of 3, 6 , and 9, you would have a key to the universe” -Nikola Tesla
This is all so difficult to understand but still I persist on, thank you for making quantum physics videos and making them easy-ish to understand because I have been meaning to learn about it for a long time now!
When I was taking my exams for science, we only did Chemistry and Biology. Physics was only ever mentioned. So after leaving school and embarking on my writing, physics slowly became more and more important in my story creation. So I can say I've spent more time over the last 15 years trying to learn basic physics than I ever attempted at Bio or Chem.
And it's only now, after spending three hours watching your video over and over, that I've started to understand what it means when light is both a particle, and a wave, and why that's so significant.
Thank you for a great vid.
I smell a Double Slit Experiment video on the way...
If a slit smells, run away!
A two-toned kitty.
you mean you count the asshole as one slit?
My first threesome was very much a double slit experiment. Subsequent threesomes were a breeze though. Now that viagra is available, I've bumped up to as many as five slits on occasion.
Joe Scott hopefully not in a contaminated Cardboard environment. Or not measuring the surface it hits as opposed to the light itself. No particle has never been seen in the light itself in an uncontaminated environment. A bunk theory. Light is a wave only.
Hi there -
I just wanted to thank you for a really interesting, informative, and beautiful video on this subject - wonderful footage and clear presentation. Is part three on the way?
Can you believe this. Not a science person and follow very little but can't resist to finish the whole episode and from time to time burst into laughter n amazement over the ridiculously complex equation. Delightful ly complicated!! thank you.
I can’t believe I've never had a teacher even explain the “quanta” part to me.
Your graphics are incredible. Did you create them yourself?
Wonderful video. Clear and entertaining.
I saw quite a bit from the Casseopeia Project.
I also recognized Casseopeia Project in there. He should credit his source. Those vids are pretty good
People who choose to indulge into QM are a community. A community that never gives up. Cheers to the video btw
Yes, it is finally here. King crocoduck presents "Quantum Theory made Easy ".
i know nothing about science but, what is light? light is a particle traveling at the speed of light, since its time stops completely its superposition its transformed in a wave on time, so a wave of light is a particle with superposition, quantum and relativity working together
Could you possible explain what you mean. The only reason why I ask is I was 100% certain (i looked it up again and I am right 2015) that frogs see individual photons reaching their eyes. extract : Miniature light detectors in frog eyes known as retinal rod cells are directly and unambiguously shown to detect single photons of light -- an astounding sensitivity considering that a humble 60 watt light bulb spews out a staggering 1020 photons per second. Using a specially developed light source that generates single photons, a new A*STAR study finds that a rod cell has an almost one-in-three chance of detecting an incoming photon
Ovni
I read that a particle would not be a particle if there were not several different types of waves that construct it. These different types of waves are the superposition.
Each interaction happens due to light
@@philrudski9084 Let's imagine that you are transformed into light, or a massless being that can match the speed of light. When you travel from point a to point b as a human you see the whole journey as you get in your car and drive the entire distance until arriving. But if you were light traveling from a star to a telescope on Earth, the beginning of the journey (the point of generation), all of the distance, and the arrival (the point of absorbtion) would all be simultaneous. You aren't exactly "traveling" from the star to the telescope, because there was no time before the journey began.
No time passes during your "travel" to the telescope. It would for someone observing you thru the telescope, relative to your position.
So "traveling" faster than this is incoherent. It's like trying to measure something smaller than a Planck length.
For me, this makes it a little easier to understand why time is relative. The closer you get to reaching c, rhe slower time would appear to pass from your POV. That's because if you somehow did travel at C, time no longer applies. It would effectively stop.
I know this is hard to wrap your head around, but it's the best I can simplify.
@@a.j8307 Thanks for the reply. What's cool is since I asked that question I been doing some limited study and I certainly now understand what's going on.
Nice.....No advertising and gets to the point quickly ....Thanks ....
Thanks for this, this is very important for me.
14:03 "anomalous phenomenon" - who says science can't be poetic? Great video, thanks!
I’m very sorry about making a criticism without first sincerely saying this was one of the best illustrated videos I have seen dealing with the nature of light that I have seen so far. It is a wonderful video to show my students as I am teaching the foundations of physics. Thank you very much for such a well articulated and even more so illustrated description.
In addition to h-bar being invented as a notation, tau was invented as a more natural notation for the nearly-always-wed 2π. ;)
What's an interesting observation I'm impressed 😎
What a fascinating observation 😎
H-bar is the same symbol as Saturn in astrology/astronomy, ♄, the planet that represented the farthest, external limit of our Solar system for millenniums, while Planck's constant (♄ * τ) represents the smallest increment, or "internal" limit of an atomic quantum ! with both the atom and Solar system looking a bit alike with a small and dense nucleus in the center, and more spaced photons gravitating all around on their orbits..... The same symbol was most likely selected for a reason.
This is best clip I have ever seen"
I was always considered a very weak student by the education system of my school but I always loved chemistry and physics and the mystery it veils. Today, I can understand all the concepts so well and can understand all which I thought to be a dream only for the geniuses. I bow and say thanks to you 🙏🏻😊.
Finally got around to watching. Awesome job, KC. I really enjoyed it and hope that it gets the viewing it deserves. As the father of teenagers, I despair at the kind of crap that gets watched on TH-cam when there is an ocean of gems like this out there to be discovered and savored. Even though there was nothing new for me I never tire of watching this kind of stuff, especially when it's so nicely executed. Science is just so... beautiful and the people who discovered all this are god-like to me. I think that's why I get so pissed off at creationists. Looking forward to more.
PS Did I miss something when you said medical ultrasound was dependent on Compton scattering? I would have thought that it was bassed essentially a classical phenomenon.
***** thanks TLD, I'm glad you enjoyed. If you tune in tomorrow you'll also catch the "Welcome Back" party that I'm throwing for Kent Hovind.
I've been looking around on the topic of Compton scattering and ultrasound to try to fully understood what was meant when I first heard it- I took the relationship between Compton scattering and ultrasound as it was described to me to refer to the recording of the wave data on the screen, but I'm getting more and more skeptical about this explanation so I may need to defer to the expertise of a specialist. If it turns out to be wrong, I'll add this to the Errata video I have planned at the end of the series
Completely off topic but I’d like to see you reply to this video if you have time m.th-cam.com/video/sLgfrJBxkPM/w-d-xo.html

As a retired science (and biology) teacher I only say: I wished I'd have this awesome video to show my students.
Imho the mathematical explanations and beautiful animations, etc. are absolutely excellent.
Thank you opening up this amazing - and essential - knowledge for pretty much everyone interested in science. Btw. I'm sure the late Mr. Stephen Hawking would fully agree, he was one of the greatest scientists - and teachers - ever.
@Dirk Knight Are you high? Feynman, like all competent physicists since the 20s, accepted that photons exhibit the properties of both particles and waves, just as this video explained.
Thanks for sharing this with all of us. :)
Dont you just love how humans in many instances found the answer before the question?
We saw/measured something that showed contradictions in previous models...

Where did Max Planck like to drink?
At the h-bar!
Melkor personally Max was the ultimate Genius not Einstein who took other people ideas then reformulated into his now famous equation
A lot of others derserve much more credentials also. It's not, that Einstein contributed nothing, but his share has been way overblown by popculture. Notably in his 1905 paper Einstein made NO citiations where he got the ideas or from what he developed own ideas from. Although it already was scientifically the norm back then to cite sources. But as we know he did not get the Nobelprice for that anyway. I guess 9 out of 10 people don't know that. E=mc2 had been formulated before in several dervitative forms. Also other directions like the Ether-theory had been outruled too early IMHO.
Hans Harz it was his "Time Madness " that led many astray. A lot of gifted people are never known..... just as today market dictates those who have the Gold prevail in History
So how come he got the Nobel prize in 1921
When Einstein had to get a job as a burger-flipping dork at McDonald's because Max Planck's fans put him out of work at the university:
E = McSquare :P
(Please don't throw anything metal)
This is literally one of the best videos on this I’ve ever seen and I watch this stuff all the time
You didn’t really make Quantum Theory easy, you explained it sure, but still, you explained with an ‘average grade’
Not the ‘basic grade’

Kieser Sozay I don’t appreciate your coarse language. What’s wrong with you? Mindless comments like this demonstrate an inability to express oneself in an educated manner.
Particle-wave duality... a fundamental unspoken law of physics is that ‘you can’t transfer wave energy through resonance without a medium of transfer’. In the case of light, the medium of transfer would be particles, in the case of the ocean, a molecule bath - propagating waves (albeit with external noise). Tune - and the transfer of energy is maximized - an electrical analogy could be the power transfer of matching impedances of a preamp and a poweramp. Light waves are the same - they are a simple harmonic motion and consist of quantum particles, a transfer of energy through particles moving in harmony. Great video and thanks for posting, inspires.

because one time i broke a crystal ball...and they labeled me "persona non-grata"
if you think about it, water can behave like a wave and a particle too
That's exactly what I was going to say, it seems to me apparent, that there is some additional factor left out of the equation...
Water acts like a wave when there's a lot of it, you can't make the same distinction for a photon because even if you eject one photon it will still have a wave behavior. If you take the double slit experiment and allow a photon to go through without observing it, you'll get interference and diffraction. But if you let a molecule of water go through you wouldn't. Well, you would according to De Broglie, but not in the sense that you're thinking.
@@pockydust3404 Good point. Just one problem: you don't get an interference pattern unless you have multiple photons hitting the sensor because if you only fire one photon at it, only one spot would be hit. Please correct me if i'm wrong about that, but I don't remember seeing any experiments that only fired one photon and got a wave pattern.
@@CrossingTheStreetArt Actually thats the whole point, if you don't observe the experiment you'll see an interference pattern. Even if it's one photon, but if you observe it, you'll see the one spot. Pretty weird stuff...
Alex Bailey
Actually, if you fire one photon at a time without observing which slit it went through, you still get an interference pattern. Electrons too. Not certain how massive a particle it’s been done with...
I’m back. Looks like they’ve done it with molecules as large as 800 atoms. So, if you carefully sent one of those molecules through at a time, each hit on the screen would eventually add up to the same interference pattern.
That’s the thing about quantum physics. Whatever you think is supposed to happen is likely to be wrong. And we know that the theory is correct because it so accurately predicts the nonsensical behavior of reality.
I’ve heard that it’s theoretically possible to send any mass through a double slit. But for macroscopic objects you’ll have to cool it to impossibly close to absolute zero. Which I think would be prevented by quantum physics.

After watching this video I feel extremely stupid :(. I am fascinated by these things but don't have the brain to actually comprehend them. It's so frustrating.
Well, you should remember all of this from school.
Cush Lol what school? Public education must have some extremely high standards in your country if you learned about quantum theory in school.
+zoltan87 It's the Dunning-Kruger effect it's okay we will all feel it as we endeavor to climb the mountain of knowledge.
Your brain likely isn't the issue here. Most people need to take college-level Physics 1 and 2 before watching this video so they have the background knowledge necessary.
@zoltan87 But know this: If you understand that you don't understand, that makes you smarter than Deepak Chopra. So all you need is to keep going.
Physics was my favorite subject in high school. Absolutely and utterly fascinating.
If I could go back, I'd major in either physics, mathematics or philosophy. The big question subjects.
But I had to do accounting...
Then you did one better than philosophy, already.
This video is so good, why does it have 136 dislikes?
Christers.
+Mike* we all know earth is only 6000 years old!! All of this is satanist propaganda! /s
Because the 137th sacrifice in the name of God hasn't been preformed yet.
because 136 people chose to hit dislike. They probably didn't like it
well there are thousands of people that still believe the Earth is flat , and that is the reason we could not have gone to the moon ( round things are just holes in the sky )

So, what you're saying is that god did it?
EndlessVacuum Very nicely intelligently designed!
EndlessVacuum No, definitely not.
EndlessVacuum because they hadn't figured it out (yet) that clearly means that the answer is to much for human mind to understand, so god did it.
until someone just find the answer, then everything above is just bullshit
EndlessVacuum HA HA....HAah hahahahaha....aaaaaah.....good one.
EndlessVacuum God does not play dice. So he could not have done it.
Anche "l'amina" funziona per mezzo di elettromagnetismo
the ' made easy' description attracted me .... well as the old saying goes 'everything is relative' ... way over my head but fascinating none the less ... thank you
Max Planck believed in God.. a mind of all matrix outside of time space and matter

@Jeffery Pullin Are you certain about that?
I like people like you all who have talents to facilitate others who need your support " Quantum Theory Made Easy". So interesting to watch this video. Thanks.
One of the best videos I've ever seen on modern physics. Very well done - and Thank-You! I'm waiting for No. 3!
Thanks for your generosity.
Real Beauty of a Video. Must Must see for any serious student, and everyone else.
Killing me without mercy, those Planck and equation s. Killing me softly and delightfully, those comments. But incite me to watch the lecture again. Thanks and keep up with the good work. From HK.
you are one of the reasons youtube and by extension the Internet is amazing and revolutionary. I hope you will continue the series
some of this was taken from the "cassiopeia project" videos which are also available on youtube.
Great video! It takes me back to my university days. Really well done. Thank you!
Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules:
When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. (More spatial curvature). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are actually a part of the quarks. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" make sense based on this concept. Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity. If an electron has qualities of both a particle and a wave, it cannot be either one. It must be something else. Therefore, a "particle" is actually a structure which stores spatial curvature. Can an electron-positron pair (which are made up of opposite directions of twist) annihilate each other by unwinding into each other producing Gamma Ray photons.
Alpha decay occurs when the two protons and two neutrons (which are bound together by entangled tubes), become un-entangled from the rest of the nucleons.
Beta decay occurs when the tube of a down quark/gluon in a neutron becomes overtwisted and breaks producing a twisted torus (neutrino) and an up quark, and the ejected electron.
Gamma photons are produced when a tube unwinds producing electromagnetic waves.
Absolutely the best description I have seen of the photoelectric effect. Well done+.
I feel the reason we enjoy learning this way is because it’s presented in a story like form and helps connect information rather than a book of all the facts discovered so far... we feel part of the journey and eager to contribute
I think you might be onto something
Damn Crok. You did not mess about. Went straight for the science. Mad respect. Keep it going
