@@sethkeown5965 What I've found is that Higgs Boson particle is just evidence of the Higgs field (The filed where mass exist). So there's basically 2 fields (That I know of after looking into this topic) which are the electromagnetic field and the quarks field. Before the Higgs Boson particle was found it was only theoriezed by Peter Higgs and his colleagues on 1964 that there's a field that corresponds to mass and the more a particle interacts with this field, the more mass it will have which is called the "Higgs Effect". Now these elementary particles (The stuff that makes up atoms) usually have a spin and traits that makes an elementary particle different from other particles, and the Higgs boson particle is a certain particle that should have no spin nor traits as it is pure mass, and it decays into two muons. The test didn't really find the Higgs particle, but they did find clues and evidence that it exist namely the two muons that it decays into. Right now we assume that we have found the Higgs particle since we have traces of its existence, but we aren't fully sure if it really is from the Higgs Boson or if it's from a something else entirely. I'm no physicist, I'm just a random dude who only spent a few hours looking into this topic which is why I cannot bring any credibility to my words.

An Agency titled "ERDA" (Energy Research and Development Administration) of the US Government had a contract (award?) with the University of Tennessee to study power production using an MHD generator (Magnetohydrodynamic Generator) in June 1976. The initial test bed for this was a jet engine burning plasma like fuel made from coal and the jet exhaust passed through a strong magnetic field to strip the electrons from the hot gas. I retired from the US Army one year earlier (Enlisted E-8) having worked in Metrology and Calibration. Completing a BS in June 1976 I was offered a contract position to install and maintain instrumentation for the project located in Tullahoma. When interviewed for the job I was given a look at the test bed. As I recall the jet engine was about 12 inches diameter and about 4 foot long. The current source for the magnet was simply a large bank of DC Arc welders. It was an interesting project but one week later TVA offered a position repairing instrumentation on the Browns Ferry nuclear plant damaged by a bad fire. I've often wondered what happened with the MHD project. As a side note I heard at that time (1976) Russia had the strongest magnet in the world.

One of the big advantages of the MIT / Commonwealth Fusion magnet is it uses high temperature superconductors that can work at liquid nitrogen (77 degrees Kelvin) as opposed to liquid helium (< 4 degrees Kelvin). From thermodynamics it takes far less energy to maintain liquid nitrogen temperatures than liquid helium temperatures (look up "Carnot efficiency")

3:41 the person inside the magnet would be so terrified

So they finally did invent the "flux" capacitor. 😆 🤣

So does electromagnetic flux-compression mentioned at the end require a flux capacitor?

I been watching videos on magnets and what not for a good while now for the past week. Just when you think you learned it all you learn some more holy cats that's awesome!!

Magnetism is super cool! Thanks Hank and SciShow for a great episode. I think the study of magnetism will reveal gravity’s secrets. What if gravity is caused by a field or two, instead of a particle?

How much energy do the capacitors at the University of Tokyo store and pump into the flux-compressor? My guess is 1.21 Gigawatts.

I don't know if you guys already did a video like this or not, but if not, could you do a video about temperatures? It's always been a mystery to me why the lowest we can go is -273 but we can go millions of degrees in the plus for extremely hot temperatures. So how come it doesn't go both ways?

Because at absolute 0, motion stops. Temperature is largely just the motion of atoms, heat is the way we measure it. The real question might be why we are on the low end of the scale. Probably because, the further you go up, the quicker you get to the "Sh*ts on fire" point. Just like earth sits in the Goldilocks zone around the sun, life sits in the Goldilocks zone on the temperature scale.

charles' law says volume prop temp. Based on this, a slope can be extrapolated, and we will see the volume would reach 0 at -273.15C, which is impossible, so we cannot ever reach -273.15C. Anything lower, the volume would be negative, which is impossible.

@@MarkJones Yeah that's fair. The more heat the more the molecules move about. On another note, you say life sits in the goldilocks zone of temperature, but that's human life. There's always the possibility that some life forms exist that can't live in temperatures lower than 1000°C for example

@@ASOTFAN16 In our scale we have critters that exist called 'Extremophiles'. They can survive/thrive in extreme (to us) conditions and temperature ranges. Even more so, when dealing with the higher ranges of temps in the universe. Life is tenacious, and will find a way to exist, and carry on. Like the wildlife on the ocean bottom that live clustered around volcanic vents that spew black smoke (hence, Black Smokers) continuously. That is some hot water!

@Betageek52 those extremophiles at the bottom of the ocean live in a high-pressure environment, not just high-temperature. Probably the high pressure allows for a normal volume to stay in a high-temperature medium. But I wonder if the temperature of the organisms themselves is just as high as the water's temperature. Also wonder if they would still be alive in a low-pressure - low-temperature (our normal) water?

I knew a neurologist who worked at Mayo when they got their first MRI. All the docs would run with glee into the office right over it with their paper clips, spill them out, and watch them dance. I assume back then they hadn't quite gotten the shielding right.

1:32 “ is this the one that exploded” 😂

Considering how warm and fuzzy a regular MRI made my skin feel, I'm not sure if I even want to know how the Iseult MRI feels to go through! 😂 Edit: Before anyone else wants to go "hur hur placebo effect" I suggest you do some research. Skin warming during a scan is a known effect, and even the walls of the MRI tube measurably grow warmer during use.

However, if It is a contrast MRI, the contrast medium skin rash, dizziness, a headache, and nausea.

So can a magnet be used to simulate gravity? Wouldn’t that make it possible to make large objects rise and fall steady and slow with easy , my thinking is if you can use two gravity fields to cancel each other out ?

I'm pretty sure that magnetic fields obey the inverse cube law as opposed to gravity and most other things that are inverse square, meaning that it's not a very good analogue as the magnetic field drops off significantly faster than a gravitational field

Weird but interesting question. They actually did this a long time ago with a frog with 16T: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation#Diamagnetically_stabilized_levitation Basically water is diamagnetic which means it opposes a field applied to it so it pushes away from magnets. Trying to do this to something large like a human will probably be a lot more expensive but still possible.

Not perfectly because magnets don’t have the same drop off rate with distance as gravity. It drops off to the cube instead of square like gravity. However if you’re given an object at a set unchanging distance with a known magnetic force it’ll act as if it was gravity, but moving it around wont behave the same. They can act gravity-esque, as you can make orbits and stuff using magnets but the exact behaviour isn’t the same. So you wouldn’t be able to exactly resist gravity with an opposing magnet, and it’s also an issue of scale where the earths gravity doesn’t change virtually at all within a few feet due to its size but a “smaller”magnet will change its force a lot over a few feet. Using a strong electromagnet that you can modulate the strength of you could I guess engineer a magnetic elevator type thing but you’d have to fight against the fact that the magnet doesn’t act like gravity. Even if magnets followed dropped off to the square like gravity, the only way you could exactly oppose gravity would be to have an equally strong magnet placed the same distance away as the earths core (I think).

A magnet can counter-act gravity on a local scale (like at the point where all the magnetic fields intersect in some magnetic tweezers), but gravity and magnetism behave fundamentally differently, as the rest of this thread discussed. And, if we could somehow control and manipulate the theoretical graviton (the gravity analog of the electromagnetic photon), then we could actually affect gravity itself.

Nice summary !! Thank you!

Good to see you again, Hank. The KZread algorithm seemed to remove you from my feed for ages. Still got my HG signed Sagan poster. Hi to John. DFTBA,!

Magnets are cool, truly! I get up to 6 MRIs every year to keep track of a few issues, mostly to check my ventricles that have an unfortunate history of being enlarged. Unfortunately, the MRI tends to make the setting on my shunt change since my shunt is programmable and is changed based on magnets.

As soon as he mentioned Japan, I knew this would be the magnet that exploded.

11:27/11:43/12:24/etc. - this bears striking similarities to electromagnaforming... e.g. for making a "'quarter shrinker"... which I participated in at a makerspace once... much fun -- but also, scary scary stuff. We're probably lucky to all be alive. Exploding copper coils are no joke! Containment was a serious challenge, and our first tries at it were....... less effective than one might hope for, for safety reasons.
