I did my PhD on MICE and this is the first time I've heard what we were doing referred to as "super cooling". 🙂 Basically we send the beam through a low-Z absorber (liquid hydrogen or lithium hydride) and the muons lose energy by ionizing the absorber molecules. low-Z is important to minimize scattering. Was awesome to see an experiment as small as mine (only about 60 people at any given time) on SciShow though 🙂

The (original) photo in the thumbnail is from within ProtoDUNE. There were 2 of these prototype detectors hosted at CERN which used 2 slightly different Time Projection Chamber readout technologies. The so-called 'Single Phase' version was injected with a charged hadron beam. Analysis of this data is ongoing. Additionally, a small correction to how DUNE's detectors (Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers) work. Yes, the neutrinos will exchange a W or Z boson with the argon and some interaction products will be emitted. However, it's not just electrons which will be detected. Other charged particles will in fact ionize some of the other argon in the detector. The electrons from this ionization process are what will be read out by the detector (not actually the electrons produced directly by the neutrino-argon interaction and the subsequent shower).

@pauldavis2108 Год назад

I got to finally tour protodune last summer after watching it's construction over several years. Pretty cool stuff.

@nurfuerdieplaylist Год назад

I think they are saying just what you're correcting, only worded a bit less precise. At 9:53, "THOSE particles" is referring to the "particle shower" from the collison of argon with the boson from the initial argon-neutrino interaction, if I understand that correctly :)

@Jake20111 Год назад

@@nurfuerdieplaylist 'those particles' referring to the electron shower constituents are disctinct from the electrons ionized from the argon when a charged particle passes by (including the electrons in the shower -- 'those particles' -- as well as other charged particles like protons or pions).

Im so used to living near one I don’t even think anything of it until I’m reminded by a video like this of how amazing and complicated they are. Also no one in my area ever voiced any concerns of it creating a black hole.

@Descriptor413 Год назад

Good video! A few corrections, though: 1. 1:40 Magnetic fields don't accelerate charged particles, electric fields do, generally through the use of resonating RF cavities. Magnetic fields can only deflect the particles in a direction perpendicular to the field and the direction that the particle is already going (which is how they are used for steering the beam, as you allude to later on). 2. 3:17 While not needing steering magnets is one reason for not using a ring shaped accelerator, there's actually a much bigger reason to use a linear accelerator! The real issue is something called synchrotron radiation, which is light emitted from charged particles that are going at relativistic speeds and then bumped in a direction that not the one they're already going in, which is what is constantly happening in a ring accelerator (since the magnets are always trying to force the beam to bend). This synchrotron radiation causes the beam to lose energy, and thus speed, which is kinda the opposite of what you want your accelerator to do. Plus it creates tons of X-rays and other high energy photons, which can be quite the mess to deal with in the accelerator tunnels! (Side note, this phenomena is actually also used as a purposeful source of X-rays in some experiments, in what are called Synchrotron Light Sources). The reason we can still use ring accelerators is because protons don't put off too much synchrotron radiation, so you can still reasonably come out ahead with achievable accelerator voltages to get up to near the speed of light without issue. This is why most (if not all) ring accelerators only deal with protons and anti-protons. The problem is that when you're trying to do stuff with electrons, they produce way more synchrotron radiation, so the only way you can accelerate them to where you need to go is by using linear accelerators, which don't need to bend the beam continuously (beyond some mild correction). And that's what the ILC hopes to achieve! 3. 8:34 The real reason the neutrinos are being made in IL but measured in SD is because it's cheaper that way for tax reasons. (This one's a joke) Still, glad to see your channel put stuff like this out there for folks! There's a lot of nuance with these things, so no worries about missing a few details. I certainly wouldn't have known any better since starting my job at Fermilab a year ago, so the details don't matter too much if you're not actively working on these things. Still, I figured I would add a few tidbits for those interested!

@andrewroberts1526 Год назад

Particle physicist here - I don't think I've heard "moo-on" before aha, typically people use "myoo-on" like the greek letter. More interestingly with regard to a muon collider, the other big engineering constraint is that muons decay in microseconds. You can extend this relativistically when you speed them up, but you can't escape it, so you have a ticking clock from the time you create the muons to the time you collide them. The LHC currently takes hours from injection to collision, so this would be a significant design difference, though it should still be possible. A muon collider would be really, really exciting.

@sharrpshooter1 Год назад

I can't believe they didnt even mention how insane it is to use 17 ton of liquid argon. For anyone who doesn't know, liquid argon can only exist between 83-87 K (-308F to -302F), thats an insanely tight band, and while they can use liquid nitrogen, its gonna be insanely hard to even get that much liquid argon in there and keep it that cold

Pronunciation question. Is "muon" more often said "moo-on" as Stefan does in this video or more "myuu-on" as I was thinking before?

10:40. The first episode of the Star Trek Original Series dealing with parallel universes (nowadays a staple of the franchise) was The Alternative Factor (1967), and precisely was about a guy from an antimatter universe pursuing his twin from the matter universe, because... of course, if the guys ever met, that would be the end of both universes. Pretty advanced sci-fi concept for the time, unfortunately botched by the episode's execution. That happened because the actor who was signed to play the dual role of the matter-antimatter guy didn't show up, and the production had to get anyone the same size and willing to get to work on that very same day. They did, but the poor guy they got (they caught him at his birthday party), despite being a fine actor, simply had no time to figure out the complex role and as production was already delayed they couldn't stop to rehearse scenes or reshoot to improve the performances. It's one of the worst episodes of the franchise. Still, it's worth a watch, because the concept is still modern (as this video proves) and the dramatic resolution is harrowing.

@bestcreations4703 Год назад

I believe that the claims that the Higgs boson is responsible for giving particles mass is wrong, it is the interaction with the Higgs field which does that, the Higgs boson is just proof of the Higgs field which is why it is so important.

For electrons and positrons a linear collider is the only viable solution as electrons and positrons loose too much energy in syncrotron machines like LHC. For ex the LEP (Large Electron Posotron Collider) wich was the machine before LHC housed in the same tunnel between 1989-2000 could only reach around 180 MeV (0.18 TeV) compared to LHC reaching 7 TeV with protons. However the Tevatron at Fermilab could bring them up to at least close to a TeV and the Tevatron rings were smaller then the LEP wich was same size as LHC so it might be some differences in the machines also apart from this fact. (One thing was that the Tevatron was superconducting and LEP was not) The issue with linear accelerators however is that to reach high energies with one single pass through the machine something way more powerful then todays RF based acceleration systems are needed. Things like plasma wakefield systems and similar could generate many times the accelerating field of todays RF based machines and thus making a multi TeV linac a reality. CERN are currently working on a project called AWAKE ( Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment) that aims to develop a such system. Then we have muon accelerators.The best of both worlds but there is one more issue not taken up here regarding muon accelerators. Muons, just like higgs bosons and other super heavy particles only exist for a few billions of a second after they have been created. That means you have a VERY short time to create, accelerate and collide the muons before they cease to exist. The muon cooling system is there to adress that problem as well so that you will have enough time with the muons to be able to use them in an accelerator.

Is there a limit on the size of collider when the speed of light limits the fun? For example, building a loop around the planet vs one 1/2 that size assuming both can reach just shy of the speed of light. Love to hear everyones thoughts

@LizardGuy50 Год назад

the speed of light is a limit but you can still give the particles more energy, they just gain mass

One of these days I gotta visit Fermilab, they apparently offer weekly tours.

@snadkfow295 Год назад

I'd call and double check what the current tour availability is, things got a lot more intense about site access in the last couple of years. It used to be super easy to get a tour but I think it got slightly more challenging. People can definitely still visit but there's fewer things open to the public atm, though I've heard rumors that some stuff might reopen.

Screw that, we need to build stellaris gigastructual engineering mod Level accelerators. Just a giant ring around a star!

@Atheistbatman Год назад

So, will this one open up a larger demon portal or would it be same size as the other demon portals My mother is extremely worried or she was the last time we spoke which was about this several years ago

@StarkRG Год назад

We should also be looking at building a particle accelerator around the Moon. Not in orbit, just on the ground (or, rather, under it) all the way around. A _really_ big ring with no environmental concerns involved.

@Collisto2435 Год назад

Can't wait for a collider to be built around the entire circumference of the Earth.

@Drebin2293 Год назад

And that, children, is how we accidentally opened the portal to hell in pursuit of argent energy.

It never ceases to amaze me the amount of work, effort, and intelligence that humans are willing to dedicate to knowing something about objects that aren't going to be of any use to know. Hahaha, I'm not joking. This is science just for the sake of science, which is fine, and maybe it's most unadulterated.

@Ozymandi_as Год назад

Do you have even the faintest idea how the smartphone you're holding in your hand works, and manages to communicate what pass for thoughts to countless other people around the world within just a fraction of a second? A century ago we were listening to rudimentary radio sets, and the concept of a general purpose computing device had not yet even been imagined, let alone invented. Without fundamental research, the modern world would not exist. Without curiosity, humans would be little different from the other apes. Your problem is not that you are ignorant, because we all are, really; but that you think you know everything you need to know.

Please correct me if I’m wrong as I’m not an expert on this but isn’t it the Higgs Field that gives stuff mass with the Higgs Boson just being an excitation of this felid?

@MrCelloman999 Месяц назад

Linear accelerators still use magnets, just not deflecting dipoles. They use quadrupoles to focus the beam just like ring accelerators do.

@heatherharrington18 Год назад

@SciShow fyi, KEK in Japan has had their neutrino beams running since 1999 doing amazing neutrino physics. Yes, DUNE will also be great, but it feel a bit odd to call it a "New Kind Of Particle Accelerator." I highly recommend this delightful video from the T2K collaboration! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u-UH3EwIEIs.html (Of course, electron-positron colliders aren't new either.)

@nicokra7602 Год назад

the location of the LHC is wrong. at 2:33 it is next to Saleve, at 5:48 it is fully in France partly under the Saleve. In fact the location is much more in the north-west, next to Jura (neary Meyrin/Saint-Genis / Segny/Ferney). Are the proposed locations of FCC and CLIC correct?

Nope. Gravity's influence on these experiments is basically nonexistent. (Literally the weakest force, what can ya expect)

@Encephalophage Год назад

Does a particle accelerator that large (~32km diameter) need to curve with the earth? Or must it exist on its own plane to work effectively? I'm imagining it on the surface in, say, Wyoming, USA. Super "flat" ground, but being that large, it would curve away with the horizon Being built underground, though, it could exist in its own independent plane through specific engineering of the tunnels

@Encephalophage Год назад

@@sentireaeris2384 Wow, somehow this property of the geometry just slipped right by me! My brain must've been envisioning a ring laying across a cylinder, but of course, the horizon curves away in all directions!
