Agreed, but I pass think critically stuff right back at youDon't let this stuff brainwash you...think critically...
I watched this whole video, absolutely incredible. Higgs therory (H) for Hope. For many Religions humans this may come across as shock, but for all other species this is second nature. Thks Yoga.Particle Fever
theoretical physics does not get more important
Large Hadron Collider searches for the Higgs-Boson particle (the god particle) which gives particles mass, some more mass than others and some get none, this allows things to bind together and form things like stars and planets and atoms and molecules and humans and everything
I think the standard model goes like this ( theory of what things are made of at the subatomic level) - all matter is made of fermions which are quarks or leptons (several of each)
all force, or force carriers are made of bosons and there are two bosons: the gauge and the higgs (yet to be discovered)
at the LHC protons are smashed into each other at the speed of light billions of times
they then break into sub elements and a snap shot is taken of these elements
the mass of the higgs (if discovered) will decide whether the universe is knowable or not (watch the film to find the answer), if it is 115 times the mass of a proton (GEV) then supersymmetry rules- which is an extension of the Standard Model where each fermions and bosons particle from one group is associated with a particle from the other, known as its superpartner. For example, there would be a "selectron", a bosonic version of the electron with the same mass as the electron. However, if the higs is 140GEV then we live in a multiverse and it is the death of physics
lots of fascinating stuff
the universe is expanding at a rate a millionbillionbillionbillionbillionbillionbillion times slower than modern physics predicts
the cosmological constant sets parameters so precise that the smallest change in physics would exclude our existence - does this mean there is a GOD setting the dials? or is there something we got totally wrong about the big picture? one possibility is there is a multi verse and only in our tiny speck of the grander multiverse is the cosmological constant set to allow us to be and this is simply by chance - otherwise the odds against it happening in the only universe that exists is so great it would require an Intelligent designer which would mean our existence is the reason for everything, but if you believe in a multiverse than our occurrence can be explained by mere chance and may also mean nature is unknowable because nature occurs by chance and has no explanation - the LHC may answer this question
unlike any other of the great scientific discoveries, you are there, and get the privilege of meeting the Einsteins of today (some have very sloppy hair and dress bad), no babes as the girl geniuses never seem to wear any make up or know what yoga pants are
I'll try to watch it too. I love science stuff.I watched this whole video, absolutely incredible. Higgs therory (H) for Hope. For many Religions humans this may come across as shock, but for all other species this is second nature. Thks Yoga.

Just finished watching it... heartbreaking.I dare anyone not to shed a tear for - Dear Zachary: A letter to a son about his father
The same team who created the Amy documentary worked on Senna. I followed F1 racing closely when this is set, but a great a documentary for even non-racing fans.+1 I agree, didn't know much about her until this and was amazed at her story
