I’ve been a geophysicist for 45 years. I must thank you for re-instilling the sense of wonderment I felt in my younger days. I watch your presentations then find myself pondering it all in those quiet times of contemplation when hiking or cycling.
I love your emphasis on the Heseinberg uncertainty being a consequence of wave mechanics as opposed to an observer effect. As a physics student I can attest this misconception is everywhere in pop science ! Great video all around.
Saying something is "uncertain" is not an answer to any question. Saying something has a point origin at an event horizon, at least makes an attempt at a definitive answer. You might not like the "observer" explanation, but it is a more rigorous definition of reality. "Limitation of what we can know," vs "limitation of what we can measure" is just semantics. It is the same thing.
@@dialecticalmonist3405 what are you talking about ? its quite obvious you have no scientific training, I'm sorry, read up on the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, Fourier transforms and an undergrad QM book (I recommend Griffiths) and I think these concepts will be much clearer. This has nothing to do with dialectics, its a mathematical property of wave packets.
I agree with the other comment here, I cannot express how grateful I am for having discovered you. Really like your style of explaining complex problems.
It should be noted, decoherence is often quoted as a solution to why we never see quantum behavior on macroscopic scales, but this isn't the full story. Decoherence is just a term used to describe what happens when a huge quantum system's many parts interact, both with each other and with their environment. Everything gets scrambled up, and the system's parts begin to behave according to classical probability rules instead of the Born rule. What this does model is the emergence of classical statistical mechanics. But there is no mechanism that decoherence provides that explains the quantum measurement problem. As a system begins to interact with its environment, the state of the system, at least in principle, remains stuck is a massive entangled superposition, all the way to the macroscopic level. Interactions by themselves do nothing, according to Schrödinger's equation, to force a system to leave a superposition of states. This only appears to happen (for some reason) once the system interacts with measurement devices. Therefore, it's still an interpretive question, and an unanswered one at that, to ask what the state of the system at large scales.
Can it be explained as entanglement? I think this is something that Susskind is saying. The system under observation gets entangled with the particles of the measuring instrument.
@@b43xoit You may be describing one of two things with the words "entanglement" and "Susskind." One is the idea of Everette's interpretation, which is that the universe splits in some sense. Different branches of the entangled wave function describes different outcomes of a measurement. The other thing you could be referring to is the ER = EPR conjecture from Susskind and Maldacena. So, I'd ask to clarify what specifically you're referencing here.
@@jmcsquared18 I don't know about an entangled wave function having branches; that's farther along than I have studied to. My understanding is that for any given pair of particles, there is no entanglement, full entanglement, or partial entanglement, and these things can be inferred from measurements, at least partially. And when I refer to Leonard Susskind, I'm not referring to the conjecture you cite, necessarily. Just the material he states here on TH-cam.
After another 1000 explanation clips or so I just might start to grasp this subject. It's so fascinating but so confusing. Keep up the good work Arvin!
In the example where we shoot waves at the wall, and a ball comes back, it would be more accurate to show that another wave comes back, but from a specific point of the wall. It is never “not a wave”, the collapse of the wave function is just the beginning of another wave function.
Your animations about physics are some of the best anywhere. I love how you point to formulas and break them down. How long does it take you to make the animations? Do you do them yourself? Either way it is very impressive.
@TheZone An average atom has a radius of 0.1 nanometers. A solid 1'x1'x1' volume would have something on the order of 10^23 atoms, each with their own wave functions that would have to be nearly perfectly in-phase which each other to produce a noticeable effect from our perspective. If you had a ball of 10^23 tangled rubber bands, how difficult would it be to lay out every single one in a neat grid?
@@markjapan4062 According to Muhammed Abdul, (paraphrasing): there are Muslims in the East (from Egypt?), but not Islaam, whereas there is Islaam in the West but not Muslims.
Re the uncertainty principle: I think that's actually one of the least "weird" properties of "quantum world". Because it's simply an inherent property of all waves, not just the wave function. For example, you can observe a very similar thing with sound: you may have a nice tone, which is a sinusoid wave---so you can easily measure its frequency (wavelength) and that's what defines the pitch. But you can't locate a tone to a singular moment---only to an interval in time during which it sounded. On the other hand, a clap or a gunshot is easily pinned to a moment, but you can't really say what's its pitch; as it's just one sound pressure peak, there's no frequency to it... Same thing.
This video should be in the top-5 videos one should start watching to get familiar with the quantum world. Thank you so much Arvin, you are doing an amazing job in educating us!
Absolutely superb demonstration ! I am sure this will encourage students (young and old) to get into the maths and physics to get a greater understanding and appreciation of quantum mechanics.
Except that the double slit is not a quantum phenomenon. A quantum phenomenon either has Planck's constant in it somewhere or it requires multi-quantum correlations like entanglement. ;-)
That! Is why people have difficulty understanding the Quantum World. Because we view it in terms of own perspective of life. This video serves to bridge the gap between the micro and the macro! It well pioneers a very good way of approaching Quantum Mechanics!
I cannot wait until you reach one million subscribers. You deserve it 10 times over. I love your explanations so very much! Thank you very much Arvin. Don't worry it will happen very soon I hope. You are the best physics explanations on the entire you tube by far. Absolutely love you!!!❤❤❤
Very will done, Arvin! I'm reminded of George Gamow's Mr Tompkins series. He did a few short illustrative stories on quantum effects if we could see them such as "Quantum Billiards" and "Quantum Jungles".
What a marvellously clear capture of the information related to the question asked - provides guidance (frameworks) for ongoing and greater explanation in the area. Thank you. You are tops, so very across the material.
I always find it funny, that without large scale physics and pictures we couldn't have a single idea about quantum, nor able to explain anything to anybody.
As a part-time photographer, my way of thinking about the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and not knowing precisely the position and momentum is thus: If the shutter speed of a camera is thus that there is no blur at all on the per-pixel scale (Planck-length, I guess), then you can see a photo of a perfectly clear moving object, but you can't determine its speed from the photo. If you have a slower shutter speed, the object will instead be smeared over the picture somewhat, but using the smear and the shutter speed, you can determine how fast it was moving. Even so, the image is blurred, so you can't get a completely clear look at it like you could if the shutter speed completely stopped the motion (and thus didn't allow you to determine the motion). So with photography, you can never have perfect clarity and know the speed of the object at the same time. By the way, I'd be happy to see Frustrated Total Internal Reflection get it own video!
Thanks for the excellent presentation. Another analogy for the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle I like to use is detecting audio at different frequencies. You can easily detect the start and stop of a high-pitch noise, light the "high-hat" sound in dance music. Low-frequency tones (20-30Hz) are so spread out that it's far more difficult to tell where they start in time. In typical music, a bass thud is really a short high-pitch impulse followed by the long bass note to give the listener a better sense of when the "beat" starts. Keep up the great videos!
Nice. That's a good analogy. But aren't the low frequency tones generally pressure waves? Or more correctly, sound vibrations are pressure waves. So, can we consider the Energy-time equation of the Heisenberg's Uncertainty to deduce the analogy you have given? Because I think that Position-momentum uncertainty will become vague for understanding this. What do you think?
This is the first time I have understood why large objects don't act like quantum objects. I was stuck on the idea that it must be a perception problem of different scales of existence but your wave function interference cancelling each other makes sense.
What a great, intuitive explanation of why we don't see quantum behavior at our macro level. How is it that after watching dozens of other videos from various creators about the quantum world, this is the first time I've understood the quantum/macro relationship?
I really wish educators were held to a much much higher standard (& compensated as such). Imagine a generation of people, 80+% of which being educated by people somewhere near Arvin's level.
In the last month or so, I have seen quite a lot of videos on similar topics to this, of which three have been outstanding. Those three include this one.
It is my understanding of quantum tunneling is this: after hitting the ball, the ball becomes a spread-out wave and when it meets the wall (a stationary wave), if there is no disturbance to the spread-out wave then it passes through.
I'm a Physicist and hold a PhD, for several years my house is truly haunted and ghosts are sadly real. When the scientific community believe this fact and study and find an Equation to explain the paranormal, that scientist(s) will be awarded a Nobel Prize and the world will have new Equations the world have been waiting for.
I've read/studied the double slit almost daily for 40 years,...it's always bothered me. This video actually "clicked" with me. It's still abstract and frustrating... but clears up a lot of fog. Thank You Man!😀
Hmm… in the illustrated example of the aircraft seat, the new passenger only seems to determine whether the first seat is occupied. Surely, there is now still uncertainty about the three remaining seats and their occupancy should still be superposed?

As a student of physics I was addicted to your channel, especially quantum mechanics . I have a great curiosity from longtime to know about your qualification I mean in which field of physics you studied so that you motivated to make such amazing and elaborate explanations even though professors don't gave such explanations ;if you interested pls replay...
Thank you Arvin, I love the way you explain very complex mechanisms in a very simple way. But I can’t fully agree in your confidence to say that certain quantum phenomena are not applicable in terms of „magic“. See, I stumbled upon your videos on my search for answers to very real phenomena I encountered and still encounter in my life. In my search I also experimented with qigong, and other spiritual or consciousness practices including breath work and visualization techniques and found out in my experience that our mind is capable of much more and we can influence matter as crazy as it sounds. It’s like muscle that just needs the proper training. What I can say is that through some practices, you start to use areas of your brain as well as body in a coherent way that will unlock certain let’s say sensitivity in your perception which will lead your conscious part of your brain or ego to be able to use and manipulate certain aspects or laws of Newtonian physics. Seeing blindfolded also through solid walls for example is taught in Indonesia as Merpati Puthi to almost the whole population. Through continuous breathwork and meditation you Rewire the visual cortex of your brain to use another information channel beyond your 5 physical senses or the signals of your eyeballs. I encourage everyone to try it out for themselves and scientifically try to find out how it works. I just can tell that it works and that the western science and physics avoid to dive into the topic which is ridiculous. Interesting fact, children learn this ability in a matter of minutes, since they don’t have learned barriers in their mind or trained worldview. My 7 year old son was able to see completely blindfolded right after I told him to look for the “information” in his mind. And before commenting this, just use TH-cam and research a little or even better if you live near Utah go to MP USA or watch their videos and the reviews of their students. Thank you Arvin again for your informative videos, I love them! Would love to see a video from you trying to explain just the ability of seeing blindfolded after you learned some of those methods from MP USA. Looking forward for that! 😊
Thanks (again) Arvin for this video. I always wondered why the double slit experiment doesn't work for large objects, but is does for electrons, while electrons do also interfere with their surrounding. Of course an electron is much smaller than a tennis ball, but is has a charge and mass and even the smallest interaction should prevent an object (electron) to come in superposition. But now I understand that if an object is not a pure wave function because it exists of many waves that are not in sync, it can not be in superposition.
An electron is a single wave, and so behaves like a single wave. A grain of sand is trillions of waves that interfere with each other. It no longer behaves like a wave overall.
Great explanations! I have one further question I‘d like to pose: When everything is waves and therefore energy at a quantum level, how do things like feelings and perception occur from that? So how come energy and waves and quantum particles form complex larger stuff like humans and how come humans can see the world around them? How come interactions between quantum particles form images we can see? I‘m looking forward to some answers!
Thank you for another fascinating video! I 💗 your channel. Thank you for mentioning the subtle point that we are all subject to the laws of quantum mechanics. The same laws of physics are universal. It's just that quantum effects are too small for us to notice at our scale.
Brian Greene's documentaries did this a lot and that's why I love them so much. Like in that documentary where he goes in a bar and says "I'll have what he's having", but its himself he's referring to lol
Nice video! Maybe I am mistaken but it seems to me that there must be more than 1e15 atoms in a squash ball of 25g. One mole of carbon (assuming the squash ball is mostly carbon) is about 12g and 6e23 atoms, so to me it should be somewhere around 1e24 rather than 1e15. But perhaps I am missing something.
Great video! Bose-Einstein condensates show that macro objects can become quantum when supercooled. What if there was another mechanism, such as increasing the collective energy levels of the atoms comprising the macro object- then subject them to conscious control? = magic!! 😉
I cannot express how good you are at explaining this stuff, you deserve so much more!

Of course an electron is much smaller than a tennis ball, but is has a charge and mass and even the smallest interaction should prevent an object (electron) to come in superposition.
But now I understand that if an object is not a pure wave function because it exists of many waves that are not in sync, it can not be in superposition.
An electron is a single wave, and so behaves like a single wave. A grain of sand is trillions of waves that interfere with each other. It no longer behaves like a wave overall.
Great explanations! I have one further question I‘d like to pose: When everything is waves and therefore energy at a quantum level, how do things like feelings and perception occur from that? So how come energy and waves and quantum particles form complex larger stuff like humans and how come humans can see the world around them? How come interactions between quantum particles form images we can see? I‘m looking forward to some answers!
I would say: The brain just represent the information to itself in this forms.
What a great video!! Congrats
As Col. Jessup asked LTJG Kaffee:
"ARE WE CLEAR?"
Crystal. Colonel.
Excellent work. You always make that much awesome video and explain it very intuitively. 👏🔥
Thank you for another fascinating video! I 💗 your channel. Thank you for mentioning the subtle point that we are all subject to the laws of quantum mechanics. The same laws of physics are universal. It's just that quantum effects are too small for us to notice at our scale.
Very well presented!
Brian Greene's documentaries did this a lot and that's why I love them so much. Like in that documentary where he goes in a bar and says "I'll have what he's having", but its himself he's referring to lol
Coming up, right now-is so.....🎉🎉interesting
Nice video! Maybe I am mistaken but it seems to me that there must be more than 1e15 atoms in a squash ball of 25g. One mole of carbon (assuming the squash ball is mostly carbon) is about 12g and 6e23 atoms, so to me it should be somewhere around 1e24 rather than 1e15. But perhaps I am missing something.
Thanks Marvin
Great video! Bose-Einstein condensates show that macro objects can become quantum when supercooled. What if there was another mechanism, such as increasing the collective energy levels of the atoms comprising the macro object- then subject them to conscious control? = magic!! 😉
Morale of the story? Never play squash against Arvin Ash.
Haha...I actually was a decent squash player back in the day.
Excelente vídeo 👍👌
Very nice explanation of where the understandings end and theories of gobbledygook begin. 🙃
