Yay! Don's back!

Great video Dr. Don! However, I was wondering when you are bringing back "Subatomic Stories"? 🤔🤔👍👍

Dr Don is back! It's been soooo long - the notification that there is a new Fermilab video literally made my day. :) Also, the VFX in this episode are a real step up, the person responsible for the editing did a great job!

I have two comments. 1 - You're the only person I've listened to who had managed to say super-duper whilst actually talking about something serious. A true skill. 2 - What happened to your moustache? I lied, I have a third comment. Thanks for helping people like me understand what people like you are doing, it's great.

Don, you are one of my favorite channels on KZread. Your uncanny ability to explain complex things clearly, your manner of presentation and quirky sense of humor are amazing. I eagerly await each next episode. I studied engineering and did 3 years each of math, chemistry and physics although I have been working as a business consultant for the last 25 years.. I did some nuclear physics at college but clearly not enough and oddly it was a chemistry lecturer who mentioned quarks in passing one day 45 years ago. I clearly remember the day but did not give it much thought again until recently. After a chance visited to Turkey in 2019 I was amazed at the ancient Roman architecture that is to be found there. During the COVID break I had time and started to watch more about ancient history, which also led to cosmology and of course sub-atomic particle physics. Out of curiosity I wanted to know more about "quarks" and quickly discovered a 'new world' Seeing the standard model for the first time recently made me realize just how much has happened since my college days. From the very first episode of yours that I saw I subscribed because I immediately recognized that you had something special. And the similarity between the infinite small and infinitely large are fascinating even if not completely predictable after the fact. Applying quantum physics to understand biology is also truly a fascinating topic e.g. bird navigation and the consciousness of human minds So thanks for your effort to help make these topics understandable, compelling and "entertaining".

Every 50-100 years our minds are blown away by new information. I refuse to believe that we grasp '' the bigger picture'' just yet. Great video!

@@benjystrauss2524 Three represents the few scientific nutcases that think 26.8% of the universe’s energy is not a fact in spite of multiple lines of evidence that can measure and detect it. It doesn’t mean the detail nature of dark matter is known but its group effect and existence is without doubt. This is at least a three sigma conclusion. I’m sure dark matter made lots of headlines when it was discovered by Fritz Zwicky in 1933. I think Dr. Don is just saying an actual particle has not been found to associate with dark matter. He cares about this because he is a particle guy. Dark matter could be something other than a particle although there isn’t really another sensible alternative that hasn’t already been ruled out. But we know dark matter of some kind exists. It isn’t remarkable to think that it is a particle somewhat similar to a neutrino, otherwise known as the ghost particle. Or do you doubt that neutrinos exist too since they can only be detected when moving at near light speed? Cold dark matter moves slowly so detection is not possible in this way. Why are you so opposed to reality? Is dark matter against your religion? i.stack.imgur.com/IhWZK.jpg

Small note : De Broglie is a tricky surname that is not pronounced as written (at all). Even French people have a hard time with it as, the way it's said, they would write it "De Breuil" if they dif not know how it's spelled. I'm French and I was in my twenties when I learned about it. This wikipedia page has the correct pronounciation in audio : en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Broglie

Here's the thing about the pronunciation of names: It's not absolute. Names are pronounced according to the language and region of the _speaker,_ not necessarily the native way a person would have pronounced their own name. I've lived and worked in Asia, Western Europe, and North America. I can tell you from my own experience that everybody mangles foreign names, even the French. When I joked to my American colleagues how the Europeans mangled my name, they said I wasn't alone. Their own English names had been mangled as well. My colleague Howard told me that when he visited Paris, the French called him "Owaar," and when he told them it was like the aviator Hughes, they said "Oog" 😂 In general, there's no one "correct" way to pronounce a name. • Two people with the same name may pronounce it differently if they're from different languages, cultures, or regions. • Let alone two different people. The same person might pronounce their own name differently in different regions. For example, a lot of people who emigrated to America Americanized their names, _including Einstein, Von Neumann, Antonin Dvorak, and Vito Corleone!_ 😁 That's the price De Broglie pays for international fame; the price Howard and I pay for the privilege of traveling internationally in this multicultural, multilinguistic world. It's not done maliciously, so I don't get worked up about it. Neither should you. Coming to the way Dr. Lincoln pronounces foreign names. (Foreign to him, that is, non-American names.) In general, if you have to pronounce a name-any name-would you say it like a native, or the way your target audience expects it? From a practical point of view-unless you're specifically teaching them how to pronounce names-I say the latter. You're trying to get across a message, and you don't want them to get side-tracked. So it's not just names-you should also use _their_ units of measurement, sports, and pop-culture references. That's exactly what Dr. Lincoln is doing. As an American working in America and speaking in American English, his primary target is a non-technical American audience. He definitely knows that the American pronunciations of foreign names is different from foreign (native) pronunciations. It's not difficult for him or his research team to dig up the native pronunciation. But he deliberately uses the American pronunciation-it's the reason I've mentioned earlier. _And it's not wrong!_ It's the culturally accepted practice everywhere. His pronunciation would be considered wrong if and only if (1) It was not the commonly accepted pronunciation in his language, region, and target audience, _and_ (2) it was not the native pronunciation either. A broader, international audience is expected to understand that. So, yeah, it's futile to call out speakers because they don't pronounce words the way you do: • If they're confident of the pronunciation, it's because that's how they've heard it being pronounced, and they expect the audience to understand whom they're talking about. Dr. Lincoln falls in this category. Remember, this is not an extemporaneous talk. It's a planned production-it has been scripted, rehearsed, recorded, and edited before being published. If he or his producers were doubtful of the pronunciation, they'd have re-recorded that part and edited it in. Fermi Lab has the resources to do it! • Otherwise they already know that they don't know the "correct" pronunciation. They still need to move on with the rest of the talk, so they do the best they can, hoping that the audience will understand. They may hesitate, they may stumble, they may apologize for their pronunciation-it's really up to the speakers' individual style. For the listeners, the key is to not miss the forest for the trees.

The only purpose of my message was to convey information, just so, for exemple,people know that when they hear someone say "de brogli" said as written or something like "de broyle" it's the same guy.

When someone mentioned that they would think that if dark matter exists that it would be bunched up possibly at Lagrange points like L1 and L2, or the core's of very dense objects. That almost makes me visualize magnetic fields, how plasma form's, and intense density layers interacting with the space of the universe around it. It all makes me feel like our equations or our amounts we put into our equations are just off and that we just have a lot more to learn about the things we already know about, like deeper layers of complexity to gravity, electromagnetism, density, temperature differences, radiation, etc. Etc. And maybe how all these things can interact on immense scales and immense complexity of combinations in the scale of entire galaxies, multiple galaxies interacting, clusters of galaxies interacting with other clusters of galaxies interacting, and so on and so forth.. Who knows. I'm just hypothetically discussing an idea and totally open to being completely wrong. It's just fun to stay curious.

Fantastic. How did you make me think I understood something so incredibly complicated. Whether or not it finds Dark Matter the gravitational waves detections would be amazing.
