2013 Paul D. Bartlett, Sr. Lecture - The Hunt for the Higgs Boson
Ғылым және технология
April 16, 2013, at the Linda Hall Library
11th Paul D. Bartlett, Sr. Lecture presented in association with the Harvard-Radcliffe Club of Kansas City, the Princeton Alumni Association of Greater Kansas City, and the Yale Club of Kansas City.
On July 4, 2012, scientists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider announced an achievement on par with splitting the atom: the discovery of the Higgs boson, a particle that holds the key to understanding why mass exists. Join Caltech physicist and acclaimed writer Sean Carroll, Senior Research Associate in the Department of Physics at California Institute of Technology for a behind-the-scenes look at this landmark event as he explains the importance of the Higgs boson and what it means for the future of science. This is an irresistible story with a certain amount of conniving, dealing, and occasional skullduggery-and Dr. Carroll explores it all.

I ❤ Sean Carroll.
This speech is so old (2013) there have to be many new things about

Exactly. This is where it needs to be structured
This bed, has never been slepton.
Wish I was smart enough to understand this stuff

Good point, a Student may have aptitude to see and solve precise problems, but if it is all about the "Real Estate" accuracy in identification valuations first, ie so they know what they are looking at/for.., "can't see the wood in the trees " is a permanent distraction. We are looking for precise resonances in the reciprocal, complicated and messy, "all is vibration", universe. One note at a time playing in an apparently discordant Orchestra. Fieldwork is the "navigational" problem of locating your course in the transverse trancendental logarithmic sync-duration Cosmology of Mathemagical Musical Measures.., inside-outside the imagined=Theoretical Connection, instantaneously, and being satisfied with the functional results. Eg if you accept that the resonance node of a particular location, a particle, is the included mass-energy-momentum continuous creation connection cause-effect, then the reciprocal field, the complete message of navigational precision, is "Aether", containment by "imaginary" i-reflection trancendental vibrational timing. "Too Easy" for Prof Carroll, new students have the necessary "unfilled space" in mind, to guess what, how and why WYSIWYG is REAL. A standing wave-packaging matrix of motion, log-antilog interference of/by Absolute unity at zero-infinity sync-duration mass-energy-momentum location.., is OK to label anything you want to fit your thoughts, ..Aether, Dark Matter, Empty Spacetime, trivial zeros etc etc.
I wouldn't expect a prominent Scientist to begin with "Are you hearing me at the back, is that working? Say no if you don't hear me." They wouldn't be able to say no if they couldn't hear you 😛 Probably the only time i'll be able to correct a theoretical physicist, so i'm taking it!

In the Marines, during the buildup to the Gulf War, I was on a ship heading to the Persian Gulf. A Marine Captain would get us all together for guard duty and such, and begin by yelling…“CAN ANYONE NOT HEAR ME!” Always struck me as odd, like everything else over there.

Yeah somebody missed the joke. 😂 r/wooosh
The "particle at the end of the universe"? What? Aren't Higgs bosons supposedly everywhere around us in vast numbers? What does the title mean? I don't get it.

It’s a reference to Douglas adams and his “restaurant at the end of the universe”.

@@NondescriptMammal explaining someone else’s joke seems silly but I’ll try. I believe it is because discovering the Higgs proved the current standard model of particle physics. It was the last particle to be discovered, and is important to the universe, so they went with a fun play on words from a pop sci-fi book.

It's a tad rish when someone like Jim says you couldn't understand unless you have a PHD Un-Quote. Well I get it, I understand and I have some interesting theories and I only have GCSEs

It's some artifact of distributed computing and cache optimization. KZread is a victim of its own success, and there are ongoing scaling issues. Some comments seem to disappear, though if you refresh your app you'll probably see the comment. Independent of this, some comments just disappear indefinitely, though the are still counted. Will these issues be fixed? Probably, in the fullness of time. But don't hold your breath.
What is a library 🤔

It;s a Tiny Toons cartoon. It was probably made for children. What's to explain?
An amazing talk about breakthroughs of physics draws 34 comments in 8 months. A silly video of a stupid celebrity draws millions of views in 1 day. Can physics explain that?
You can always ask Why". Why this and not that? RFK asked the question and was martyred for asking..For all anyone knows, "Why?" might be an unanswerable question.
This was one of the biggest nothing burgers in physics today. The highs is not what they said.
