    There's a connection here. My thinking: Gravity is a monopole (attraction), EM is a dipole(positive and negative charge), and Strong force is a tri-pole (three color-charges). But then, what is the weak force? My knowledge is limited, but eager to know if I am spouting nonsense or not.

    Theoretical particle physicist here. As nice and interesting this presentation was, I have a problem with the way you introduce "the inifnity problem" of QCD. It has long been known that the Landau pole (that is, the divergence to infinity of the strong coupling constant) does not imply a "physical" infinity, but only signals that the theoretical framework used to describe QCD breaks down. Landau poles occur in the so-called perturbative approach to QCD (and more generally of Quantum field theory), and only tell you that the perturbative expansion (around small couplings) is no longer valid, mathematically speaking. In short, the "infinity problem" only is a problem with the perturbative description of QCD, which is solved by switching to a non-perturbative framework. And this has long been understood. Now the difficulty lies in finding a way to carry out calculations non-perturbatively.

    7:40 "Electromagnetic constant decreases by 10% at very far distances". Wrong. It decreases with distance, yes, but it is already smallest and stays ~1/137 for all distances we work with, from light years to atom sizes. It is larger at VERY SMALL distances. For example, at distances of 10^-17m (about 1/100th of proton size) it is ~1/127.

    The universe is a weave of bungee-cords. (For the rest of the post, please imagine our 3-D world mapped to a 2-d tightly woven net, or web, or similar permeable surface.) Atoms are multi-dimensional features. Some of the material is visible directly; measurable and quantifiable. The remainder of the particles are “just beyond” on the other side of the surface. Stretch the “fabric of space” far enough (adding energy), and some of the atoms can pull through some of their hidden material into our observable universe. Alternatively, they can pop fully through the net and become un-tethered to our observable universe. An unrelated aside: Presently I hold the unproven hypothesis that atoms are like knots of bungee cord loops. Given no outside influence, they will automatically attempt to find their lowest energy state.

    A nice video, Dr. Miles; thank you. In your intro, if you replace “light bulb” with “bungee cord,” tension _increases_ with distance, and the example flips from baffling to intuitive. The idea that the cord or “string” eventually snaps also becomes easier to understand. There is nothing wrong with using this easier intuition since one can argue that the “flux tubes” created by the strong force truly are the universe's smallest rubber bands, as Leonard Susskind first noted in 1969. You need math to make precise calculations, but you do not need it to understand the concept. Erratum - a possibly confusing statement: At 8:15, you define “asymptotic freedom” immediately after describing the _increasing_ tension between quarks as they move farther apart. Asymptotic freedom refers to the earlier part of your statement when the quarks were close. That is when the rubber band is very loose, and the quarks do not pay much attention to each other. This indifference emulates freedom at the asymptotic limit of _closeness,_ rather than at the asymptotic limit of _distance._ That freedom is, of course, utterly different from, say, an electron and a positron bound by electric charge tension. For electric tension, asymptotic freedom comes instead with extreme distance. Conversely, for an electron and a positron, the attractive force nominally approaches infinity as they get closer. Infinities are prevented in that case by mutual annihilation. Why the attraction does not grow infinite when an electron goes through a proton, as it does in an s orbital, is a more complicated and interesting problem. For quarks, the flattening of attraction that prevents infinities is, as you described, the “snapping" of the bungee cord to create two mesons. That relaxation is unrelated to asymptotic freedom.

    The aspect of "science communication" that I despise the most is when bad, or simply outdated, ideas get passed off as being facts. This video is a fine example of this problem. Not being able to resolve the measurement problem doesn't mean a particle's mass or charge is "zero". It means we can't measure those attributes because, for example, the interactions that would reveal these attributes happen too quickly or are too small to be observed - currently.

    08:05 _... but when they're pulled apart, the energy required to separate them increases until they're essentially impossible to move further away._ I once learnt that the energy is still finite but sufficient for the production of a complete quark- antiquark- pair, and you get mesons instead of separate quarks. For example if you try to pull a red up quark out of a proton, a new red up quark will be produced alongside an anti- red anti- up- quark will be produced and yoy end up with the proton unchanged and you are holding a neutral meson in your hand. Maybe, a down and an anti- down is produced, any you end up with a neutron and a positive meson. I don't know if both can happen. 08:12 _This is called asymptotic freedom ..._ Isn't this called confinement, and asymptotic freedom is when the quarks are close together?

    A nice "pictorial" introduction to Brodsky et al's remarkable LFWF approach to QCD dynamics! Always a pleasure to see more details of our work ( as theoretical physicists everywhere) brought out in understandable form for the public who supports it. I would merely caution (as you very likely know, and DO hint at) that Landau poles are likely, in each QFT, a result of our Standard Model ultimately being an effective theory (EFT) of the "real" underlying theory of nature which none of us know yet. One could probably state that our current theories are no more "wrong" than Newton's theories of mechanics, especially in a lay environment where the Standard model is often described as "sick" due to divergencies which are discussed by non-experts. I only hope I live long enough to much more of nature's fundamental law(s) uncovered in my lifetime.

But, more typically, the renormalization is accepted without any concerted effort to find the deficiency.

    Great intro lecture Doc. Have you every thought about a "limit" to the number of virtual particles in the void? And the possibility of changing amounts of energy required to snatch them into existence due to the density of the void (just 1 math part of the formula we don't know (completely))? And possibly as the universe expands an increasing amount of energy is required? So in the beginning it would take very little energy to pull them from the void (big bang). Just thinking and by no means proclaim this as a theory or my beliefs as I haven't found or solved all the holes in it! Best

    So as I understand this strong force it must have a form of F=k1*e^(x*k2) because it is only possibility to make such derivative: dF/dx=k3*e^(x*k2) possible to increments with distance as well as F=k1*e^(x*k2). Where k1, k2, k3 are respectievly constants and e^x is exponent. k1 is in unit [N], k2 [1/m] and k3 [N/m].

    Amazing how QM uses color theory to explain the Universe at a particle level. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but Einstein's formula originally was derived to explain how to account for all the mass of a nuclear particle, in spite of the fact that quarks only account for a small %. Originally, the formula was m=E/C^2 which is far more important in thinking of mass in relation to energy. Thank you for your videos, I am now hooked :)

    There are some interesting demonstrations using bubbles to model surface tension geometries. Some crude parallels could be shown to describe the boundaries between bubbles that represent electron obitals and atomic bonds. In general, configurations that reduce stress define the final structure. Learning how to calculate those stresses will be the key to unlocking physics at any level. The strong force is just another manifestation of stress in our universe. We just don't fully understand all of its parameters yet.

    They should have asked a mechanical engineer. This is exactly the behavior of a spring. As you extend a spring the force gets larger and larger, until a limiting point where you cannot increase the distance any more - the spring is as its maximum extent. But then the material the spring is formed from itself deforms and the distance again increases. The spring is no longer extending, the material itself is extending.

    particles must essentially be vortices in spacetime. The trick is to find the math to describe the stable shapes. Spherical shapes could oscillate in and out like a vibration but that seems like this would radiate, so it seems toroid's and higher order knots look like more promising geometries where the energy can be contained in a rotation of a thin string like structure with an external pressure from the fabric of space.

    Yep, the 5 Dimension i talk about little more wide then the one you talk about. You have to understand Infinity different from math to Quantum math, things got other rules in Quantum math 5 Dimension. 5 Dimension are what i call it, "The non time existence in time." In other words Infinity are not linear, you need to go into 5 D. The Pythagoras Triangle 3A 4B 5C When use infinity in Normal math this model breaks even when our logic says A B C are same value. This are here my Ü make sense to use. Going on to Infinity graph and the triangle reappear in simple term say'ed. Result looks like this. 3Ü=A (A = 3 infinity long) 4Ü=B 5Ü=C Normal graph and you can't see anything. Also: Ü*0=1 1/0=Ü 1/Ü=0 All this make sense in 5D rule system, it can even predict light entanglement. Einstein things lightspeed ... Dark matter and energy plus magnetar blackholes. At least give the tool to understand it.

    Can the gravity gradient near the event horizon of smaller blackholes be steep enough strip protons apart and as the result of the kick from the creation of extra quarks, emit protons as form of radiation? Would this be a separate type of radiation from Hawking radiation, or just one of it's already predicted manifestations?

    I was listening to StarTalk earlier this week and NGT was talking about this! And it blew my mind... So even if there's a fall off a short distance but exponential resistance at longer distances, doesn't that mean the universe should be filled with and "infinite" amount of quarks? Cause quarks/gluons "splitting" as they're pulled apart in a black hole should at least double the amount of quarks we have. Am I understanding this totally wrong? This subject is so interesting, I would love more clarification.

    If they are splitting and creating doubles of themselves while INSIDE a black hole, then they are contained within the event horizon of the black hole and cannot escape And since inside the black hole, the intense gravity prevents any expansion, it doesn't seem that there would be any splitting happening since splitting happens only when the particles are pulled apart.

    I presume you mean at the event horizon - since nothing can escape a black hole. But no, consider - matter has to collapse to form a black hole in the first place. When a virtual quark/anti-quark pair manifest at the edge of the event horizon and the gravity rips them apart causing one to fall into the black hole and one to escape, the energy used to produce those new particles comes from the black hole itself - causing the black hole to shrink. Essentially Hawking Radiation is just releasing the energy of the matter that makes up the black hole in the first place.

    Richard Feynman also got bested by swinging a bucket around in a circle. This bucket had a super fluid inside and was superconductive. It gave Richard a big headache upon striving to picture what was happening to the fluid inside the bucket. As you look out astronomically this is what occurs inside a neutron star. What is felt to happen is small magnetic pins run through the neutron star as the magnetic field is expelled from inside a superconductor producing these pins running through the star. A neutron star thus becomes more strange than we can imagine even before it is filled with strange material near the core.

    Uh, the force is constant - potential grows linearly though so it’s kind of like a weird spring that doesn’t fight back at you more but stores more and more energy. If I remember my string tension simulation correctly. Of course that one was merely a quenched simulation, but for the purposes of this computation is actually appropriate.
