Dark photons at noon | James Beacham | TEDxFultonStreet

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. The discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC in 2012 was a fantastic achievement. But what's next for high-energy particle physics? The next generation of larger colliders will allow us to explore uncharted territory, but it's also possible that new, revolutionary physics could be found at existing smaller facilities using clever new ways to search. Is it possible that our we might not find anything? Yes, but the only failure would be to stop trying.
Dr. Beacham is a member of both the ATLAS collaboration, at CERN, and of the APEX collaboration, at Jefferson Lab, and draws upon his experience in both realms of experimental particle physics to show that physicists are searching for revolutionary discoveries in all possible -- sometimes unlikely -- places, driven only by an unquenchable curiosity to understand of nature at its fundamental scales.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    He's really good at this, and really fast.

    Wow, this is intense and the best explanation as to what and why the LHC is for. It's a little deep at times and ya might wanna pause it to digest, he talks fast. But it's only 20 mins long and the best complete 20 mins i've heard yet.

    I don't think they will find anything, but it was very interesting talk. My hypothesis that Dark Matter is not a WIMP, but maybe is a deformation of space-time by which the curvature of space-time ALONE is the cause of the gravitational effect. Gravity is the consequence of the curvature of space-time. It may be possible that the structure of space-time itself could be warped without the presence of mass. Space-time has been shown to react like a fabric by warping, twisting, and propagating independent of mass. These properties have been proven with observations of gravitational lensing, frame dragging, and now gravitational waves. Fabrics can be stretched, pressured, and/or heated to the point of deformation. Such extreme conditions were all present during inflation, so it is plausible that space-time’s elastic nature could have hit its yield point and permanently deformed. Therefore, if gravity is the consequence of the warping of space-time, and fabrics can be permanently deformed, then a deformation could create a gravitational effect independent of mass.

    Dark photons carry the force of Gravity. They most commonly arrive from distances of over 14 billion light years, but they are also the most prevalent particle. When a photon slows over great distances, its momentum is transferred to matter. This also gives the illusion of a Big Bang event on the largest scales. The visible universe's horizon and gravity are the result of photon fatigue.

    Very clear answer, but where do they come?

    Yeah he works at cern with thc....he's a little weird but cool and makes sense for the most part unlike some physics teachers.

    Dark means Doesn't Exist. Just an advertisement for the larger accelerator. Higgs boson was never found, show the data! More advertisement for the large collider. THEY haven't found anything THEY said THEY would find. If, you want to see light. The Slow Mo Guys, "Light at 10 trillion FPS".
