Interesting video, thanks! I have two things to point out: 1) Experimental particle physics doesn't just consist of high energy collider physics. Many other, smaller experiments exist and deserve funding IMO. I'm sure Sabine is aware, I was just missing the broader perspective in the video. 2) KATRIN measures the absolute neutrino mass (effective mass of the electron antineutrino). Neutrinoless double beta decay is searched at other experiments. E.g. GERDA, KamLAND-Zen, and in the near future LEGEND.

Sabine, I love you because you are not easily fooled and that you so kindly include us in that set. Imagine the science that could be done with the funds for a larger collider.

Nice video, although I don't think that Cold Dark Matter (as opposed to Modified Gravity) is a mere preference by particle physicists to get a bigger collider. After all Cold Dark Matter is regarded as more likely also by cosmologists and some of the problems with it (cusp core, missing satellites) have recently become less problematic as simulations improved.

It is deeply regrettable that, although Sabine maintains objectivity on other subjects, she exhibits strong bias and subjectivity in this instance. Her discourse appears disingenuous, seemingly driven by her personal experiences and disappointments within the field, which she projects onto her videos. Her conclusions lack scientific rigor, though discerning this requires an insider's grasp of the field. Disregarding the role of symmetries in physics equates to disregarding the very foundation of physics spanning the past century or more, and even disregarding the Standard Model itself. Regarding the matter of environmental change, your standpoint comes across as hypocritical in light of the prevailing state of affairs concerning climate, climate change, pollution, political corruption, wars, and exorbitant military budgets, among myriad other concerns.

A concise and understandable breakdown as always. Your video's inspire confidence in your talents :) . I wonder, is there a way to find the threshold between macro and micro. If the slit experiment behaves one way in Quantum world, and 2 marbles thrown into the same experiment act in the Newtonian Physics way why can't we repeat the experiment using bigger 'stuff' from photons to molecules until the threshold of the 2 worlds is found.

About the antimater. There are theoretical things known as Sphalerons that can change the baryon number. So even if the universe was initially composed of only normal matter then the asymmetry would be washed out before temperature got low enough to stop sphalerons from forming Best way of making sense of those is as using Dirac sea as a Hilbert hotel. By adding some value to the 4 momentum you can create or destroy parties. It is easiest to see it in 1+1d periodic model with a single (massless) parties with only one handness

@5:40 someone probably asked this below, but worth repeating: the "quantum fluctuations" might not be strictly measurable directly, but there are indirectly discernible are they not? So I'd not say they are "not real" in the same sense of the black hole singularity being purely a mathematical artefact. It's an apples and oranges comparison. Don't go telling me, "Yeah, both are fruit!"

I understand there's not enough content to be talking about physics and philosophy of science all the time, but I really enjoy these videos more! For example, the recent video about greenwashing was your typical, slightly click-baity, not much substance video you find everywhere.

@@CAThompson I suspect there are three types of videos in Sabine's channel: videos about physics, which is where she shines, science news videos, which are a nice addition but aren't the reason I follow her, and finally videos about all sorts of themes Sabine doesn't really know much about, and those are the ones I find don't contribute much... But I might be wrong.

her non-physics videos are very useful, just look the last one about ´green-washing´, or sometimes controversal, so they trigger a debate, that's useful too.

@@Thomas-gk42 I'm not saying the theme of the video isn't useful, I'm saying it is well outside her expertise, if I'm watch a video about greenwashing from Sabine versus a video from a youtuber who actually knows about businesses and the corporate world, like Slidebean or someone similar, the difference in quality is obvious. Equally, a finance youtuber would make a pretty useless physics video. There are plenty of videos out there about psychology made by people who actually know psychology, etc. Sabine's take on it is... superficial. Don't get me wrong, I've been watching Sabine's content for a long time and love it, I just don't do the emotional, fan thing. Just because Sabine is a great science communicator in her field doesn't mean I want her or her team of journalists to talk to me about psychology, for example. It's not a big deal anyway, I've learned to stick to the physics related videos and skip the others.

@@goncalovazpinto6261 I find the 'about everything' videos a good introduction to the topics they cover insofar as they cover misconceptions, different explanations & their likelihood, and can provide a starting-point for further researching the topics.

Summary: Sabine agrees there must be new physics. Let’s not lose sight of that. She just doesn’t think we’ll find it at the next collider. She’s not saying science is generally a useless scam, as so many would like to believe.

This is the very best polite put down of particle physics I've ever seen.

Guten Tag Sabine, thank you for breaking these down. My mind is a Black-Hole consuming knowledge and working to figure out what the Puzzle will look when completed. But, I've got similarly to Physics, can't wrap my mind around it yet. All the Theories IMHO merely (guesses) keep changing daily or even quicker. And the TRUTH is we don't know enuf, to know we don't know anywhere near enuf, much less everything. If that's even possible, the everything part.

Thing is, when most physicists say "new physics" what they literally mean is something new that is still totally internal to the existing foundational paradigm; but just helps to "complete the picture". Literally, it's usually something like observations locking down some previous free parameter, that now doesn't fit with everything else, so they have to add a new free parameters, which is the the "new physics" to make things work without needing to actually review or modify the existing physics. So they only mean "new physics" in the most superficial way possible. This is how they can always be talking about indications of "new physics" while simultaneously claiming that the existing stuff is solid and rock hard, specifically the foundations. It's a strong indication of a stagnating and declining scientific paradigm, imo.

Something I'd honestly love to see in my lifetime is research into Artificial black holes. I hear all the time with hardcore futurists that there's such a thing as a "naked singularity", which is a singularity outside the event horizon of a black hole. This is, seemingly, completely possible to create, and it would probably be really fascinating to see what this would be like, and what these new observations could mean for physics. However, I am extremely dubious that an experiment like that could ever be done in my lifetime. Artificial black holes are one of those fringe technologies that seem to have all sorts of potential for new science and technology, but, in reality, they are just impractical. I think I could be tided over with seeing experiments involving macroscopic amounts of quantum entangled particles though ;)

naked singularity is fiction, even if you ´artificially´create a BH. Nobody knows, if there is singularity in the center of a BH at all. Anyhow, Hollywood already showed us, how it looks like. Research for QM, as Sabine does for many years, is the better option.

Quick fact: the guy who died at an MRI exam for having a gun was accompanying his mom and she was doing the exam, he violated the "no metals in the room/body rule" and although he removed the magazine there was still a bullet in the chamber which he didn't remove. The MRI machine unlocked the pistol and pulled the trigger. Ironically, he was also a huge pro-weapons guy, so there's that.

Sabine H. is always the most clear "explainer".

Even an UNLOADED gun is dangerous near an MRI. When that thing turns on its pull on the gun is so strong it can kill you if you are between the gun and the MRI and near enough. Most of the time the gun is off-center of the one wearing the gun, so it twists the unlucky human around and then forcibly frees itself. Can be costly once that unloaded gun damages the MRI.
