Honestly the jump between Scottish Higher Physics and 1st year Uni Physics was crazy. It was crazy in computing too but I had much more of a handle on that.

You, good sir, are an excellent teacher.

Amazing video, very well explained

Found myself thinking that bosons are like the 'pop' in soda. Ie the idea that a gas could be dissolved into a solution, and released when excited by a nucleation point is similar to the function of bosons in an atomic structure - like photons in an xray. They're the hidden force ('pop') holding everything we know as 'soda' together. When excited by an external force (or maybe a stray electron) the photon becomes excited and ejects itself from the structure, leaving behind a slightly altered and 'flatter' soda.

Good narration on Higgs-Bose particles. You narrative hardly mentions Dr. Satyendra Bose's contribution that leads to Higgs-Bose theory.

There is no label on the vertical axis of graph at 5:15. Did I hear Don say it's the rate that Higgs decays into a particle with a give mass?

3:48. "You often hear people say that Higgs bosons interact more with heavy particles ." Yeah, all the time! Especially at family get-togethers! Just found your channel. Don't understand any of it, Lovin' it!

Can the graviton if it is ever verified further complete the standard model as it is not yet unified with the others?

So, if I understand correctly, the Higgs field is like an ether/field/medium that transfers mass to these sub atomic particles depending on the degree of interaction exerted by the former on latter? Great video! Thanks for the knowledge so well broken down :)

2 questions, Any idea about how the higgs boson interacts with other higgs particles to create a field? 2. How does electron volts relate to mass in relation to the higgs particle?

hey sir how would the energy field in higgs boson will interact to the particles of antimatter and what would be its result

What is the Y axis in reference to on your graph?

Thank you for all your videos. I’m admittedly a science lay person, and I have to hold on with both hands to understand these concepts. So I apologize if this is a facially dumb question, but I’m gonna ask it anyway. If the Higgs Boson provides mass to the other elementary particles, why isn’t it also responsible for gravity? My (again, admittedly limited) understanding of gravity can be summarized by the John Wheeler quote: "Mass tells space-time how to curve, and space-time tells mass how to move”. If this is a correct (if overly simplified) summary of gravity, then why isn’t gravity just a byproduct of the Higgs Field and its interaction with spacetime. Almost as if gravity is an imaginary force that is really just describing the interaction of mass (by way of the Higgs Field) with spacetime? Why is a separate theoretical particle such as the graviton necessary to describe the gravitational force?

...The only way to truly gain insight into these concepts is mathematically. But that means you have to be fluent in that language and have an understanding of other concepts as well. It's impossible to truly understand or explain it by translating it into another form of communication. Visual and verbal explanations will always be flawed. It's like translating a poem into another language. There's a lot of underlying stuff that are lost in translation. Reading a flat out translated poem will probably cause confusion. The original language rhymes, it has sayings, some words have double meanings, some words sound the same, inflection changes meaning specific to that language, slang, popular phrases, etc, etc. It all gets lost in translation. If sometimes you feel more confused after an explanation of something like relativity, this is why.

my man dr don poppin bottles for the higgs boson

Is it possible for a particle say a proton, that is moving linearly, can deviate from linear path and take angular motion, without taking a 'Pause in Motion'. Is it proton that consists of mass and energy that is in motion due to any one form of energy, stops for a fraction of time and in process lose all its energy, which either converts to more mass of that proton or that energy is given to some another mass, or that energy goes into ocean of energy that exists in vacuum and after taking an angle of some degree regain its energy back. If all these particles in our Universe obey a rule of 'Pause in Motion' than it can conclude that time for every particles in Universe takes a pause for fraction of period. Now if two atoms {made of three different particles} are in same states than it is almost impossible to detect 'Pause Time' of one atom with help of another atom and vice versa. So any observing instrument used for this purpose also has 'Pause Time' same as the object that is observed, when both are in same states. But when a particle accelerate towards the speed of light, the 'Pause Time' decreases. and once it reaches at a speed of light e.g. photon and neutrino the 'Pause Time' vanishes. Now for a particle moving at a speed of light, the time stops relative to the particles which are slow in motion. Keeping this in mind we come to another conclusion for time. The more the 'Pause Time' taken by particle the fast the time runs for it and the less the 'Pause Time' taken by Particle the time runs slow for it.

Wait. I didn't catch whether you answered this: does the higgs field give mass to fermions too?

7:12 I agree and what a great statement: "we scientists must accept the truth, whatever that may be...... dear mr Don Lincoln, do you realy mean that when you said that ?

Higgs give mass. Mass bends space time & makes gravity. Gravitons must be stopped by Higgs field like WZ & fermions, unlike Photons. Gravitons are bigger than Photons or Gluons in whatever quantum terms apply [spin or whatever etc.]. This small size fits the weakness of gravity. Gravitons obviously don't interact radioactively or electromagnetically. Theres a window to look for gravitons. In that window, we find gravitational waves on a huge scale and maybe WIMPS. WIMPS barely interact so we cant make a size judgment on them but due to theory we know they are quite big as particles go. Maybe a quantum split experiment using the same stuff we use to try to find WIMPs, but obvs scaled down, as detectors on the end in the presence of a known change in gravitational waves will find gravitons??

I'd say it came out of the math used to describe the "transformation" or decay of one particle into another.

Stupid question, but: if a Higg's Boson is what makes up the Higg's Field, how can its mass be measured in terms of how it interacts with the Higg's Field? It is the Field, right? You're measuring its mass based on how it interacts with itself? I would think it would be a Yin and Yang-type thing, where you're measuring its mass based on how it interacts with everything that ISN'T part of the Field. Sorry, I really don't know anything about physics. Just wondering...

If it is the interaction with the higgs field that gives these fundamental particles their masses then I guess the question I have is this: Why do some particles interact more with the higgs field than others? In the analogy of the higgs field as water, the particles must differ in their 'streamlined-ness' to explain their differing interaction with the water. Do we know the quality that is causally responsible for this difference in interaction, if it is not size?

Wait, am I missing something? The top quark is heavier than the Higgs boson. Then how can the Higgs boson decay into the top quark? (In addition, the decay must preserve an electric charge and other quantities; because the Higgs boson is electrically neutral, it needs to decay into a quark-antiquark pair, not into a single quark.) In other words, exactly what does the plot represent?

You're thinking in macro terms. The interactions are not between "billiard balls." It takes a massive (hey a pun) amount of energy to get a top quark, so it's that energy that "fuels" the new mass. Electron volts are used as a measure of mass for a reason.

A top quark doesn't combined with other quarks to form matter. They are very short lived and can only be studied by creating them using the Large Hadron Collider. They were predicted by the Standard Model, which is why we knew how and where to look for them, but beyond that they are not believed to play any part in the building blocks of matter. It's kind of like those highly unstable elements at the very bottom of the Periodic Table. They're not stable enough to be useful for anything since they decay into other particles almost instantly, but we know they can exist, and we know how to create them, if only for a fraction of a second.

Abi Singla I believe the high speed mass is inertial mass and not rest mass. Inertial mass represents how much more energy you need to accelerate an object. Rest mass is the only mass that the Higgs field creates. The photon does not use the formula E=mc2 but a variation of that which includes only the momentum not mass, as its energy is fixed for a certain momentum and vice versa momentum for a fixed energy.
