Every second of every day thousand of cosmic rays pass through you, but we normally never notice. These particles are the result of high energy collisions in the upper atmosphere called air showers that are the result of some of the most extreme events in the universe flinging particles through deep space. Today we detect and measure these amazing particles and see how they can be used to directly test special relativity, catch smugglers and even find hidden passages in Egyptian tombs.

To everyone asking about the audio, my new lav mic was/is on it's way. Got a proper sennheiser system. It was one of the last thing to arrive as part of building the new lab/studio. Had been focused on building and filling the space and the new film equipment was last on the list since I haven't been filming much for the last few months while we build. So should be fixed for the next one.

8:52 I don't think they just spring into existence, I think they are summoned. I think at that level of energy and size of mass, gravity may have an attraction event as the particles contain too much energy. Gravity in this paradigm is the resisting force against entropy and the expansion of the universe. (Like air in the ballon to quote futurama/star trek) So perhaps at a subatomic level once a certain threshold of energy plus x variable that is also in the collider, gravity or a magnet-like force occurs. I have no background in science.

@BboyKeny 2 года назад

@@Argoon1981 The original context is gone but I do want to add something to your concept of usefulness of school. I see school as a possible invest to achieve a specific goal. You have to set a goal first which requires certain knowledge to achieve. Let's say your goal is to invent a new form of power generation. You might be inclined to say "I have to get a PhD in physics to be able to achieve my goal". But this is a wrong assertion. The correct assertion is "I have to learn physics to achieve my goal and getting a PhD is a way to learn". This way of thinking doesn't restrict you when other prerequisites pop up for a PhD. You might conclude "I'm going to buy books and materials to learn physics on my own because I don't have money for a PhD". Or for me my conclusion is "For my goal I require specific knowledge of a multitude of subjects. Which I can learn faster and cheaper than getting degrees in 8 completely different subjects". I've been intensely studying those subjects for the past year and have been able to test myself with the business I'm building. To reach this point through school it would've taken me 20 years. School isn't garbage, it's simply a means to an end. It's a tool. And just with any tool, it might or might not be the correct tool for the job.

I got to see things, weird, at seven and eight, up through my teens, using tubes to build radios and detectors, at a time no one really knew what those weird effects were, and they were hypothesis', and it's awesome, in my sixties, to watch "a regular guy" make and do these things.

Think about it for a second, one detector is not enough to do anything. How do you gather useful data of an object that has variable density in relation to elevation at such a vast distance? What is the resolution this thing could even do, 1 pixel per 200 miles? If you have one detector, how can you interpret anything? What is the directional aspect if it points perpendicular to the ground at the nearest distance, you look at the thickness of the earth twice, assuming it is pointing radially towards the center of the earth. Crust to mantle layers to core back to mantle layers and the core again towards the far side. Anyway muons probably don't penetrate the entire earth's diameter and you won't get anything useful out of it. Maybe higher energy particles/smaller sizes (like neutrinos?) but not muons. There is a better method and it is seismic waves, the inner mantle layer has already been mapped and it is definitely not symmetric. Just search for "inner mantle 3d map seismic computing" or "low-shear-velocity provinces" or "3D rendering of seismic tomography of the lower mantle".

Great video! Particle physics nitpick: When you smash apart a proton you do create lots of mesons (things with two quarks = 1 quark + 1 antiquark), but you will always be left with exactly one baryon (things with three quarks, no anti-quarks) at the end. This is because of how the strong interaction works and the fact that you always create a quark and an anti-quark together. The number of baryons is conserved (at least in the standard model). You cannot rip the two proton's six quarks apart and arange them into pairs of three mesons. So if you smash two protons together, in the end you will lways be left with two protons (+ whatever was created from the collision energy)! Unless a proton is turned into a neutron and captured in a nucleus before it can decay.

Speaking in 2022 it's suddenly also given to quarks instead of to protons.. Neutrons however take place in a nucleus with protons (the neutrons lack the electromagnetic repulsion). The SF lacks electromagnetic force to overcome with neutrons. We'd want neutrons to either be demolished or exited out of a nucleus by the SF. Quantum chromodynamical theory says : The SF consist of: 1 The (main)strong , binding quarks/gluons and 2 The nuclear force, being a waste product acting among nuclei. (But how will it be use the /any medium of effect?) Given the present-day model of charge in theoretical physics, protons won’t even get forward to turn on the SF. Feynman and co was just messing around with heuristical maths like usual. They built a context in which you can fit into a type of maths that aren't based on science. It's philosophy. If you wanna work in CERN you have to adapt in your presentations as these philosophers have a lot of influence. It is and was the curse of avantgarde into physics. Einstein resisted some of it but was more or less pushed to give up or give these grunts more space. Real scientists/top engineers hated it.

If someone is specialized in theory (theoretical physics) their only real use is if someone can create what they want, and if said equipment proves to be useful in advancing technology or understanding which downstream helps society. He did not build the software to run the muon detection program, nor the monitor, operating system, hardware, wiring, power transmission, or the manufacturing to create such a device. One person isn't good enough to rebuild high tech equipment (which let's be real, does not equate to "rebuilding the world"), it still takes thousands of people to create such a device, and it still takes more people to use the equipment and get something useful out of it.

@matteodelgallo1983 2 года назад

I want to clarify something, muon-catalysed fusion would absolutely be viable given the muon lifespan, the real problem is what's called 'muon sticking', where the muons stick to the newly formed helium nucleus, taking them out of the reacting mass, which decreases the efficiency below the self-sustaining threshold

@synapticaxon9303 2 года назад

A single muon can still catalyze over a hundred fusions, even with the sticking problem.

21:08 "exponential decay means... over time number of particles remaining will decrease faster and faster" this is actually the opposite of what it means - exponential decay means that the rate of decay is proportional to number of particles that's left, which gets lower and lower over time. so the number actually decreases slower and slower over time.

21:21 The particle decay happens at a rate proportional to the number of particles. That means that it happens at a slower rate when there are fewer particles. That's what exponential decay means. In the case of a single particle, over a finite period there is a fixed probability of decay. The probability that decay occurs is independent, that means that no matter how long a particle has been around, the probability that it will decay over the _next_ five seconds will always be the same. That means that the mere fact of muons reaching the Earth's surface does not require time dilation. Improbable things happen all the time.

@sparky7071 Год назад

I was watching the video and when you were capturing signals with the scope you can likely use the Segmented Memory feature of the Siglent scope. Segmented memory allows you to capture multiple events and then just display them back one at a time later. It is allows you to capture multiple short events even though they occur a long time apart from each other. I have the 1104X-E, and love this feature.

@dallinlaw6785 2 года назад

Is there any way to capture the energy of the particles? I figure not since it would just punch through any capture attempt, and even if you could it probably wouldn't even compare to solar energy but might be a fun thought experiment.

@PaulBudden 2 года назад

This would be an interesting free energy if we can get even just a few a second. This would effectively last forever and produce clean energy. As @Karlsson above mentions, "10^21 eV is about 160 Joules, which about as much energy as an average person can deliver in a punch, so just imagine that a single microscopic particle contains the kinetic energy of a punch"

@agsystems8220 2 года назад

It is possible, using a mechanism similar to Dyson-Harrop satellites. The undirected nature of the radiation makes it harder, but should still be possible. On earth there is some bias towards particles coming straight down, so you could use that. Probably not worth it, but should be possible.

21:25 how does changing the angle stop the device from detecting the muons from straight up and start detecting them from an angle?

@LisaBucet 2 года назад

The device uses two detectors and only reads if both are hit. This mainly happens if something goes through both, traveling at the angle between the two detectors. See 15:17

@Coconut-219 2 года назад

Detectors are basically linked together, to eliminate background noise through 'coincidence detection' - he explained it in software-terms when going over the setup. A particle has to pass through both 'windows' in sequence in order to be considered a valid detection, the first detector is basically only used as a trigger to validate a signal's direction, while the heavily insulated second detector is used to get the actual reading with a very clean low noise signal.
