@lendluke investigation in shape (electric dipole moment) of fundamental particles is an experimental way to disprove the CP parity. Our assumption of 'equal amount of matter and anti matter produced in big bang' is based on CP parity. Once you prove CP parity false you basically prove the above assumption false. So maybe during the big bang there was a slight imbalance between matter and anti matter.(with slightly more matter than anti matter) Most of the matter and anti matter would annihilate but some matter will remain ( the imbalance I talked about above) we might be living in that remaining matter universe.

You did a good job of explaining some difficult concepts.

I would be interested in another video on any other explanation of the imbalance.

I applaud you on making something that I don't quite understand still interesting to watch.

Really interesting video (thank you), but I didn't pick up on WHY the electric dipole moment explains how CP symmetry breaking is possible. The video appears to assert a connection between one and the other without explaining it (or perhaps I missed this?)

Thanks. Please excuse my ignorance. Electrons travel. I don't know if it makes any sense to ask how fast they travel around a nucleus. But wouldn't relativity appear to flatten them in the direction of travel? How might that effect their interactions with other particles? tavi.

@disgruntledwookie369

Electrons do not travel in the nucleus at all. The truth is electrons don't really exist, not in the nice particle form you're imagining anyway. Particles are an illusion. The truth is there is an electron field, and this field jiggles like water ripples or a drum skin, but the difference is this is a quantum field, which means it can only vibrate with certain specific energies. In fact it's a simple ladder, there is some minimum energy and then you increase in steps from there, the gap between each step is always the same, and this energy is what we associate with particles. But it's really, truly, a field. It's much more wave than particle, and you cannot understand electrons in atoms if you try to think of them as particles. The atomic nucleus has a strong electric charge and this creates a so-called boundary condition on the electron field nearby. This sounds fancy but it's not really, it's just like a guitar string or a drum skin. A guitar string is fixed at each end, so it can't move there. A drum skin is fixed all around the circumference, so it can't move there. This restriction is what we call a boundary condition, and it limits the possible ways for the string/skin/quantum field to vibrate. The atomic nucleus actually causes a kind of spherical harmonic pattern in the electron field (look up spherical harmonics, good animations out there). So the question of how the electron moves inside an atom is not answerable. Electrons do not really move because they don't really exist, they temporarily seem to exist when we measure them, otherwise you have to stick with fields. If the electron really was moving in there, it would have to move in circles or it would not stay close to the nucleus, and that means it would be accelerating, which means it would radiate electromagnetic waves and spiral into the nucleus.

Great channel. Well put together for us of average minds ❤

What's the chance that matter-antimatter annihilation equally annihilated neutrons, protons and electrons? Would there not have been annihilation of anti-neutrons with protons and all other combinations as well? Where is the energy that came from this event? It seems to me unlikely that annihilation occurred, which indicates the universe evolved as a matter universe only, with the odd antimatter particle coming into existence from other post universe creation processes. So is there any research into why or how a matter only universe could come about?

An important subtlety overlooked in most popular discussions of the Standard Model is that there are four versions of each particle, not two. For example, the electron and positron both have left- and right-handed versions. The “real” or “massive” versions of electrons and positrons are composites of these left- and right-handed versions, bound together by (surprise!) the Higgs boson. This makes the full problem of particle symmetry more complicated - and more interesting - than “just” matter and antimatter, since all four particle types must play a role if your goal is full symmetry.

This video misses something important, which is the distinction between egg-shaped and oval-shaped. The electron is not perfectly round (spherical), since it has angular momentum, charge, and a magnetic dipole moment, which combine to give a free electron an "oval" shape. But that shape has no net electric dipole moment. To turn an oval into an "egg" (which does have an electric dipole moment), you need relative motion (apparent shape changes in relativity). So asymmetry in the relative motion of electrons in the big bang could result in an effective electric dipole moment.

6:42 these physical experiments are ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLY AMAZING!

Hot take, what if there isn't an anit-matter problem. What if the natural low energy state for a positron is to be contained within a proton and the natural resting state of an electron is to be contained external to protons, what if being an anti-proton is simply a high energy state? Also, it seems apparent to me that protons and electrons are not actually litterally attracted to each other but are only apparently attracted to each other. You would think that if they were actually litterally attracted to each other, that combining a proton with an electron to form a neutron would be a low energy state, but this is incorrect. The neutron is a high energy state. Lone neutrons quickly decay outside of the nucleus of attoms and when they do, they release a neutrino and convert into hydrogen-1. This mean hydrogen-1 is the low energy state. That means placing the proton in direct contact with the electron require an addition of energy as the electron and proton resisted being put together. I posit that all electrons are reppelled from all electrons, and all protons are reppelled from all proton but that electrons shield protons from the field of other protons and protons shield electrons from the fields of other electrons. So naturaly they want to be close together but resting a distance appart that affords the maximum level of shielding: hydrogen-1

@@AdrianBoyko Actually it had an infinitely dense (centralized, if you will) origin point from which all things expanded from, so in a scalar sense the center would be the beginning expansion coordinates if cardinal points could somehow be externally constructed, but otherwise, you are correct that everything which is within the universal sphere was within that origin point. So, when I mention the "center" I'm speaking in terms of the origin cardinal coordinate expansion point and where all initial energy, gravity and matter was directed away from in the initial moments of the big bang. The matter and energy didn't expand linearly (in one direction) or circuitously (in a loop) it expanded spherically in all directions away from a point of origin. That means that in fact, there remains a true cardinal pinpoint somewhere within our visible universe where the initial expansion took place if scale is to be considered. As for my premise, it was intended to be in reference to possible early stage disparities between normal and anti-matter, since the early effects upon matter and anti-matter would have been quantum influences and not classical. We know that electrons don't fall into the nucleus because of quantum effects creating atomic valance shells and the gluons holding quarks tightly together. So, in the earliest of time during the initial hyperinflation of the universe, there could have been a quantum phase in which antimatter was equal to normal matter, but its inflation rate was ever so slightly different at the beginning to where it's far beyond the visible sphere of detection in our current expanded universe. But, it's just a thought I decided to share. I'm not claiming it's true or even probable. Then again, we have no conclusively deep grasp on the quantum world to begin with.

Where is all the antimatter you ask? Well, what makes it different from normal matter? The charge (there is also chirality but in any case it's still a binary distinction). What if we swapped some labels around, and called protons antimatter? Then you'd have both matter and antimatter in the universe. Of course there remains the issue that we still don't have positrons and antiprotons around, so some symmetry did break. But rephrasing the question this way would help us focus on the way more important question, the nature of charge (which I'm willing to bet is going to be linked to all the other differences)

Wouldnt the electrons be oval because of length dilation/contraction

The real problem is that all the current experiments are checking the roundness of the electron's charge (EDMe) only at the magnetic dipole moment axis N-S of the electron and not overall its circumference. Did you know that? There is actually currently no experiment methodology that can do that checking the total circumference of the electron's sphere charge possible deviation from perfect 2πR symmetry. They, don't even try? The excuse they come up with is "because SM theory predicts that "electrons cannot have a quadrapole moment", however this was never experimentally verified (not even close the 10^-30 precision they are measuring). Well at least I tried telling then but they don't listen "Fine Structure Constant Model Demonstrates the Electron Elementary Charge of Having an Intrinsic Manifold".What they currently checking is if N pole electric charge of the the electron is different in value from its S pole charge but what they really should check is, if the pole charge's are different from the charge at the equator of the electron?!

Otherwise, I'm listening to the people who actually have extensive experience in and work in the experimental field. You theoretical recliner physicists are hilarious. You can make a model of anything, with a little thought. Proving it in the real world is much harder.

it sounds like the sampling rate was possibly much less than the internal spin rate of the particles (not just the ion)?

We don't really know if matter has the upper hand in the whole universe, though, do we? Only that it does in the observable universe. Couldn't there have been some event during the Big Bang that distributed matter and antimatter unevenly on the scale of our observable universe, even if it's homogeneously distributed on the scale of the entire universe?

The big bang really went so hard that the explosion was just like "how? And why?"

If electron is point like particle how gravity affect on it? Point has no volume and has no time dilation gradient on it sides and can not move along geodesic line.

As for looking closer. Like in the case if the Neuteon. The more energy used to observe the further away it will appear to move. This itself isn't quite accurate either. What occurs is the shrinking of the radius to an increase in angular frequency. (An EH)

What if the positrons or the antiquarks have a dipole moment, and not the ordinary matter electrons and quarks? 🤔

I was under the impression that electrons, as elementary particles, had no size and were just zero dimensional points, and thus had no shape. Though the term “electron dipole moment” does ring a bell…

Interesting, how come nucleons are apparently perfectly round, whilst very heavy nuclei aren’t? Does it have something to do with the range of the strong/weak forces? Also, I could’ve sworn I heard about protons being warped to the point of being rod/needle shaped in the magnetic fields around neutron stars.

No, the video is really misleading. Electrons do not have a shape

Roundness of an electron? Roundness of what? This whole business seems to not ask the more fundamental question.

If the electrons ARE affected by gravity then it would stand to reason that gravity would have much the same affect on them as it does on the humble egg. I've always thought that they were not so much round as fuzzy, and so their ability to be affected in this way seems plausible. The closer they are to a gravitational source which is much the same thing as saying the more bunched up they are (clumped as they are along with protons & neutrons etc.), the more likely they are to be distorted. But does that then mean that their energy level is also "distorted"?

The shape is always changing.

Isn’t Weak Force asymmetrical in its effect. Wouldn’t that be enough to explain the matter bias after the Big Bang?

IF IF IF electrons WERE some sort of particulate objects, then I might worry. And electron is more like a volume of inflow to compensate for the outflow of the proton singularity.

12:10 wouldn’t the sea of virtual particles be present around all particles and anti particles?

OR A MIRRORVERSE (Explains matter/antimatter CP violation & gravity weakness)

If you take Wheeler and Feynman's idea of antimatter being indistinguishable from time reversed matter seriously, then the difference is just a particle's orientation in spacetime which would put all primordial antimatter outside our observable universe and before inflation/the big bang from any observer's perspective. There's another potential solution if you re-evaluate the historical definition of antimatter in light of the discovery of quarks. The quark model we have now was derived with the assumption that protons and neutrons are definitely all matter and it leads to the odd quirk that the top row of quarks are charge sign reversed from the bottom row and the leptons. You can rather dramatically simplify the conservation laws if you don't assume that protons and neutrons are made entirely of matter and swap the labels on the top row of quarks so charge sign is consistent. Surprisingly, that makes you recompute the baryon numbers in a way that makes it consistent with charge conservation and still handles the full zoo of meson decays properly. It doesn't quite solve the asymmetry by mass (it's basically 2:1 if you do that) but the up quarks that make up 1/3 of the mass are roughly half the mass and twice the charge of their down counterparts which might suggest an alternative way of accounting for both mass and charge where it's 1:1.

Interesting video. What I think, though, is that primordial antimatter formed it's own half of the real geometry of our universe. See Jean Pierre Petit's theory (plus the idea does float around in physics, since decades, but is extremely rarely known to exist).

People are trying to defend the symmetry by stating equations and other things state it has to be symmetric. But all of this ultimately stems from us starting with the very assumption that universe ought to be symmetrical. We dont like the idea of things not being symmetric. I dont like the idea of it not being symmetric. But the facts remain. We DO live in a mostly regular matter universe. Regardless of how we feel about it. And theres also no currently accepted explanation for it. Its quite possible it just isnt symmetric for no reason at all that has anything to do with any equations we have to describe the universe or physics. Just as theres probably no reason at all for the universal constants to have the exact values that they do except that if it were any other way. Life wouldn't be possible and we wouldnt exist to contemplate it. So as infitessimally unlikely as our universe is with its exact configuration. We couldnt exist to ponder it if it was different in any other way. This includes the ratio of matter to antimatter. So if theres any random fluctuations in how the bigbang can happen. Then we wouod have only existed in THIS version of those random fluctuations even if the probability is so ridiculously low it's uncomputable. There quite possibly is no reason at all for it other than sheer chance.

Question: How do we know we don't see antimatter? If antimatter behaves identically to regular matter how could we differentiate antimatter from a distance?

You said that since antimatter has been observed falling in Earth's gravitation field that means anti gravity is unlikely but this is wrong. All energy falls toward a positive mass body, due to spacetime geodesics curving toward it. Both matter and antimatter should be expected to fall under Earth gravity. But if you could build an entire planet out of antimatter that's a different story. If antimatter has negative mass then it would generate a repulsive gravitational field around it, it would cause a negative curvature in spacetime and make parallel lines diverge, antigravity basically. No experiment thus far conducted has provided any strong evidence as to the question of whether antimatter has positive or negative mass. The overwhelming strength of Earth's positive mass dominates the local spacetime curvature. You would need either a very big lump of antimatter or to get far away from any other gravitating bodies. That said, a key detail of the experiment which dropped anti protons was a possible indication that they fall slightly slower than normal protons. This would support the theory that antimatter indeed has negative mass. We should not expect antimatter to fly away from the Earth, not unless the mass of the antimatter is greater than the mass of the Earth, until then the dominant force is attractive albeit slightly weakened. Negative mass antimatter also neatly explains a very long list of issues such as where the mass goes in matter-antimatter annihilation events, why there APPEARS to be an imbalance of matter and antimatter in the universe (because antimatter repels itself and forms a diffuse fluid instead of clumping into galaxies and stars), which further accounts quite nicely for dark matter and the anomalous galactic rotation curves, as well as the large scale structure of the universe (filaments, voids, etc), AND has the potential to explain dark energy as well, because it would mean that the "empty" space between stars and galaxies is really a very diffuse fluid of antimatter, negatively curving spacetime at the largest scales of the universe. This also suggests that the universe may in fact have zero total mass/energy, helping to explain the "something from nothing" problem of cosmology. The whole universe could just be a zero energy quantum vacuum fluctuation, by the heisenberg uncertainty principle this means it could exist for infinite time instead of being short lived. Matter and antimatter pairs chasing eachother across the universe, accelerating to arbitrary speeds can also explain ultra high energy cosmic rays. We have this bias against negative mass but there's no evidence for that except "we've never seen any", but even that may be false. The fact is we wouldn't have known even if we did have it. There is still a very real possibility that antimatter has negative mass and we wouldn't know it, only now we're beginning to test the gravitation effects of it, but this is ridiculously hard. A proton has almost no gravitational field, its hard enough to detect the gravitational force between two lead balls several kilograms each. We're a long way fro accurately measuring the gravitational properties of antimatter.

And the answer is no, the shape of an electron can't change the universe, because we know that electrons are already shape shifters. How do we know this? Because they change their shapes when they attached to an atom. Look at all of the electron cloud shapes available. That cloud isn't just a possibility of where that specific electron might be rattling around in an atom, it *is* the shape of the electron itself! The same thing must be entirely true for a positron around an anti-atom. The electron is only perfectly round when not in orbit around an atom, and the positron is absolutely likely to be the same compared to an anti-atom.

Could anti-gravity still be achievable despite this discovery?

One question I always had is what if the antimatter is there, but we can't tell because the wavelengths of light emitted by anti-matter stars is the same as regular matter stars?
