This is the person I would love to run into at a social gathering. Intelligent, humble, funny and interested in trying to help make the world a little bit better
Dr. Cornell lost his left arm and shoulder in 2004 after contracting necrotizing fasciitis, a rare and invasive flesh-eating disease. Didn't slow him down!
Everyone that has an issue with him saying 'degrees kelvin' Who cares. He has been studying for decades and has nobel prize, what do you have? If he is saying degrees, then it must not be that big of a deal. And perhaps he using degrees to familiarize us simple humans to more easiely understand he is referring to temperature, not everyone knows what kelvin is
The work was done a little less than 30 years ago, but today it’s the source of a lot of really interesting physics! Some of the current and upcoming work in the field, at least what interests me, is cooling down molecules, which have a lot more ways to bend and twist them so they are even more sensitive than just atoms. This allows you to test for long range interactions and custom design quantum systems. Quantum simulation is a field that arose from this work and it involves building a quantum system that is analogous to something you want to study but can’t for various reasons. If you know everything about the analogous system, you can follow the same math and behavior in your analog to study the system you actually want to know
@@longislandlegoboy very true. All Iam saying is in response of the original comment. 0k Is intresting because It has been so far, at least what public knows, unreachable. All quantum theories close to the abzolute 0, or in the abzolute 0, are just that... Theories. A problem Is not a bad thing, just what It Is. And "problems worthy of attack prove their worth by fighting back". Dr. Cornell Is one of the greatest.
A lot of smart people are actually tormented by social inadequacies & eccentricities which are barberous to the average person so it's refreshing to listen to a normal sounding smart person that eloquently puts his knowledge out there. If I knew then what I know now, I'd have attempted things quite differently & I'd have taken my education a lot more seriously than I did. If the western societies want to compete & be successful, at the future, our education system may have to change to fucus more on stem subjects & less on the physical & artistic. Not to drop those altogether but just focus on them more. Science is fascinating & will help us solve the mysteries of the universe which would allow us to survive & succeed in future endeavors.
This was really really good, i've been waiting for this vid after seeing the short a week or two ago. its impertinent but i want to know what happened to him, my mind keeps making up fancier and crazier reasons. could watch a video of this guy explaining things for 3 times as long.
You can read that on Wikipedia. Such a lovely interview. Often, you see people who pretend to be smart and try to dazzle others, while this guy is properly intelligent, humble and just happy to discuss his work. Really, really nice!
More please. John Nash was like this. Mr Nash was From my small home town. My best friends Mom taught him high school calculus. He would sit in the back of the room and stare out the window. No pencil. No books. Calculating in his head. Ms. McDowell placed an equation on the board, telling the class , " you have 1 week to solve this equation. There is but 1 solution." John raised his hand , gazing forward now , and said ", excuse me Ms. McDowell, but there are 3 solutions to this equation. " Alright John , perhaps you could come share that with the class." He proceeded to do so , fluidly, to her amazement. Rand McNally was contacted, and the Textbook was changed from then on. Genius is fascinating, and very poorly understood. He couldn't find his way from a bed & breakfast to Shoney's & back. No doubt in constant deep thought, not interested in small details.lolol. Love listening to this man. More please. Fascinating
Can we compare vortices to plus positive and negative mass or matter and minus anti mass matter. Those 3. Atom is vortex. BEC superfluid golf ball. Atom + atom = void vacuum of 4 atoms. At .1 K there is a BEC. At .2 K we have 26 particles at once. Mass that is. A friend would clap couple of times to point how mass is gained. Like 1 clap is not. But 2 mak time wave or vibration, standing stationary still, mass. Also there are ideas where anti and positive matter do not clash splash.

We're sure he'd be lovely at a party!
If I don't care about making the world a better place that doesn't necessarily make me a bad person does it?
@@leif1075no... it makes you average... Put few of youses together as a group though.. and eeveel ensues.

The STEM world is full of such people! Get into it!
Dr Cornell is such a treat of a man! I had the pleasure of presenting my poster to him at a conference and he was just fun to chat with!
What a cool experience! Thank you for sharing!
There should be way more videos with this guy in them. I would love to see a Wired interview with this guy answering questions from the internet.
. . . Dr. Eric Cornell - what a humble, open-minded and friendly person !!! ❤❤❤
I love listening to him, he’s so intelligent but as you say, humble and approachable.

I love smart people that can actually socialize with most everyone. I also love to see someone so enthusiastic about their work. It makes me jealous
I want this cooler for my computer
Do you think your computer could compute at quantum speeds with the BEC?
Wonderful interview
So, Quantum Mechanics is very exciting and near 0K it is even more interesting.
Is this interview recent?
We talked with Dr. Cornell earlier this year, but he was honored by the Nobel Committee in 2001.

Problem Is quantum mechanics are theoretical. Electrons are out of this universe.
@@Pelis_Chilangobythesea Quantum mechanics isn’t purely theoretical, it’s shown to work very often actually

Remarkably lovely and brilliant man
Dr. Cornell is cooler than a nanokelvin.
Good one!
What a cool guy, and obviously brilliant.
I love this man. Thanks, Sir.

Barbarous to the average person? Please explain I wanna know what you by that.
Cold is the absence of heat it's techically not a thing its the absence of a thing
Dr Eric is so cool! Wish i had him as my mentor 😊😊
His graduate students have certainly learned a lot from him!
Very cool
Quite literally!

@@Bejaardenbus i didnt even think of that, much appreciated, im just sad i cant watch more of him talking about interesting stuff, he speaks well.
I remember reading an article about this back when I was in high school. It blew my mind. Cool to see the guy behind it after 30 years, (almost).

I got one for you
Can we compare vortices to plus positive and negative mass or matter
and minus anti mass matter. Those 3.
Atom is vortex. BEC superfluid golf ball.
Atom + atom = void vacuum of 4 atoms.

Mass that is. A friend would clap couple of times to point how mass is gained. Like 1 clap is not. But 2 mak time wave or vibration, standing stationary still, mass.

Apparently, he's 57. Damn, life has been tough on the guy.
Apparently amputation from flesh eating disease. Bless him seems like an angel to me
He had necrotizing faciitis and had his arm amputated along with skin grafts on his torso....yes life was a bit hard on him.
