If you were to take a coffee cup, and break it in half, then in half again, and keep carrying on, where would you end up? Could you keep on going forever? Or would you eventually find a set of indivisible building blocks out of which everything is made? Jonathan Butterworth explains the Standard Model theory and how it helps us understand the world we live in.
Lesson by Jon Butterworth, directed by Nick Hilditch.

    3:40 Small correction - neutrinos actually do interact with gravity a *very* small amount and not just the weak force. (This was discovered in recent years, which, I assume, is why it's not in the video.) That said, their mass is so tiny (millions of times smaller than an electron) that the force of gravity is almost nothing on them and everything except the weak force is negligible.

  • @Nosirt

    It’s weird that they explicitly said neutrinos have mass but didn’t say they interact with gravity. I don’t think it was “discovered”, more like just proven because anything with a mass should interact with gravity. And even things without mass but energy (like photon) interacts with it. Since in general relativity, gravity is not really a force but rather the curvature of space time- it is not possible, at least in theory, for anything to exist, including virtual zero mass particle that do not interact with gravity. We have not found a single particle that does not interact with gravity.

    Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. (More spatial curvature). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are actually a part of the quarks. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" make sense based on this concept. Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity.

    I did learn this sort of stuff in high school physics, but I am pretty sure it should have been called AP Physics...my teacher worked with a local college proof to develop the lab workbook, which the local college physics class also used. It was a HARD class in high school. He did have a formula for grading that either gave students a straight grade based on percentage or a "grading on the curve" grade, whichever was a better grade...he figured if a significant number of the class did less well on the test, he hadn't taught the material well, so it was his fault, not theirs.

    Lovely explanation - I was curious about how you were going to tackle the gravitational force and the hypothetical graviton. Interesting how gravitational force use to be so often included in Standard Model discussions but, then, after LIGO, people seem more cautious to include it. I would have thought the opposite. I would love to see a Part 2 focused on QFT that shows the underpinnings of all of the particles (and where energies "go" when unstable). [~ a happy physicist]

    I'd wouldn't say photons are made of nothing, they are something, but they're not made out of anything (smaller). They're fundamental particles that happen to not have mass. I definitely get that it's weird to think about something that doesn't have mass but that's just the way it turns out to be. I think it basically means that it can't travel at any speed but the speed of light - that's probably the best way to think about it. As a side note: I'm pretty sure the reason why the weak force is "weak" is because the force carriers have mass, a quite significant amount, in fact. This means that they decay quickly and have a short range so the likelihood that they have enough time to exchange between particles is very low.

    0:43 you can't have infinitely small particles as 1/infinity can only become a whole if you add infinity. So if you put an infinitely small object somewhere,you have infinite space which is not the object. And if the object moves,even a trillion times its size,it would move 1,000,000,000,000/infinity and infinity is still infinitely bigger than trillion,so,paradoxically, doesn't move.
