The Nobel prize in physics is typically awarded to scientists who make sense of nature; those whose discoveries render the universe more comprehensible. But the 2022 Nobel has been awarded to three physicists who revealed that the universe is even stranger than we thought thanks to Quantum Entanglement

Definitely. I have been bashing my head off Astrophysics and Quantum Physics for over two years, and I'm only just starting to get even a basic understanding of what we *think* we know so far. I love this channel for ideas and theory, and I also love Anton Petrov's channel for latest news about various discoveries and mysteries of Astrophysics. Here's a take you might like, by the well-known Sean Carroll. From his perspective, literally anything that can happen, the slight deviation in movement, spin, path, or whatever, of a single quark, all the way to the largest, incomprehensible cosmological events all does happen at once, sort of like the Multiverse interpretations. Yet what we see at macro scale Reality, is only where these things overlap the most, with the rest disappearing into oh no I can't remember and I've gone cross-eyed.

​@Kassius KLAY there is no consciousness involved, you're just repeating sensational Google bs people read. A particle exist as a superposition of states and has no deleyed will or hidden variables. The point being once information about an object is taken such as speed,spin position , etc ,the variable can no longer change, yet up until that moment the object has not collapsed. This can be caused by objects without conciousness once so ever. It's like a turtle hiding into its shell after being affected by external stimuli, an observation in scientific terms means "collection of information" as opposed to "eyeing it" The misunderstanding about it generaly comes from eraser experiment. People don't understand the mechanic and read made up headline which is no different to celebrity gossip site

Thank you for pointing out that Bell's Inequality and the experiments honored by the Nobel Prize only rule out local hidden variables theories. I'm not saying I'm necessarily advocating for pilot waves or any other non-local theory, but it's been annoying seeing videos discussing this topic completely ignore that they may be disproving locality rather than hidden variables.
@davidhand9721
@davidhand9721 Рік тому
Until I saw Sabine's video on the topic, I spent a few sleepless nights worrying about fundamental randomness & non-realism, having only seen glowing headlines. I already knew that these experiments had been done, but I didn't realize they were only now getting the Nobel recognition. So when everything I see just says that the Nobel prize was given out for proving reality isn't real, I get very worried. Luckily Matt and Sabine are here to talk us down. I'm sure it's in this video somewhere, too, but pilot waves are far from the only escape hatch here. Many Worlds never collapses a wavefunction, so all results still exist and the results don't have to square until they're brought together, at or below the speed of light. It's really very elegant when you look at it as just math and forget about everyone telling you there are branching realities. "Superdeterminism" is the more popular option, though, I believe, and it really isn't different from just taking determinism seriously. With either of those interpretations, you get to keep locality by thinking about realism a little differently.

I've always wondered if quantum physics issues arise because we're 3d creatures trying to understand multidimensional objects. What if entangled particles share a higher dimensional coordinate. Like how polynomial equations can have two answers, entangled particles intersect our 3d reality at multiple locations. So information isn't traveling "faster than the speed of light" but instead it's basically just one system connecting the two points in 3d space. This could also explain the weird shape of atomic orbitals and stuff in chemistry too. Those might be "perfect shapes" in higher dimensions.
@falnica
@falnica Рік тому
That extra dimensional coordinate would be a hidden variable, and given the results of these experiments, that coordinate would need to be independent of everything else happening in spacetime, if it even exists. For more about this, look up "Superdeterminism"
@zataritamods7499
@zataritamods7499 Рік тому
@@falnica I agree, except the way I see it is the particles are the result of the system, not the system it's self. Like the x intercepts in a polynomial. What we see is only a part of the system. Our reality is the x axis in that analogy. So the particles might not have the extra variable, the system that exists in higher dimensions have the variables. The particles just intersect our 3d reality at those points. And us being 3d entities are trying to reverse engineer the system from our limited perspective. I dunno to be honest, that's just sorta how I've always imagined it working in my head, and "dark matter" is just these systems that dont intersect our 3d reality; however, it influences the rest of the systems that do intersect our reality

For entanglement to happen, as observed, the particles have to be placed near each other. They cannot be entangled if one of the particles exits far apart, like 100,000,000 miles, for example. Therefore, an ACTION has to take place to get them entangled. If all it takes is an ACTION, like motion, then there must exist in nature entangled particles. Has anyone discovered an naturally occurring entangled particle?

Well done Matt on your fluent descriptions. I have one question regarding Quantum entanglement and the principle of instantaneous action at a distance. Assuming the two entangled particles measured by Alice and Bob, are each taken in their spaceships going in opposite directions at speeds that create some measurable time dilation; when the instantaneous action happens, do Bob and Alice see the effect happen at the same time, or is the ‘instant’ measured as being at the relative times of each? If the latter is true, on one objective perspective, the action takes place at a future time relative to the other and creates an interesting dilemma. If the former is true (ie at a time agreed by the observer to be the same (not sure how), then Alice and Bob measure the ‘instantaneous action’ as taking place at different times.

I remember reading about the Bell inequality and the epr experiment when I was a kid and I'm really glad people went through and did the experiment. One thing that has puzzled me though is why took that experiment to convince people of non-localities/ indeterminism. The thing that really convinced me and frankly it was shocking and very disturbing was the first experiments with single Photon and single electron two slit diffraction. To this day I'm unclear why a careful examination of that seminal experiment isn't as clear an illustration of non-locality/ in determinism. If anyone wants to explain how you can get single Photon and single electron to Slit diffraction patterns in a local/deterministic universe, I would be interested.

It's chilling the number of brilliant scientists whose monumental contributions were only acknowledged, not by practical analysis by the scientific community, but said individuals being extremely determined to go against conventional wisdom and prove their worth. Who knows how many scientists that were brilliantly on to something, but backed down from pursuing it, as result of ridicule and negative support by the scientific community.

@@pseudoname3159 That's the thing, all scientists should be aware of this and act in this manner, sadly there are way too many stories within the community historically and at present where there's unwarranted venomous criticism against those that challenge the status quo. There's a lot more "Don't rock the boat" versus "That's interesting let's test this idea out and see what we can learn". The culture is this, if the challenging scientist persist and can preserve from attacks that could possibly end their careers, and they happen to be right, the scientific community will eventually applaud them. If they don't, many in the community will treat them as a laughingstock and as a pariah b/c they dared make a challenge. This behavior has absolutely nothing to do with science. This culture gives unnecessary power to dogma and actually damages our understanding and advancement. I understand that getting funding can be difficult, and if your entire life work was on a previously established scientific principle that all of a sudden is at jeopardy b/c some upstart has some ideas that may jeopardize everything you've done, you're going to be filled with hostile emotion. As difficult as it is, we can't use these feelings to intimidate and create unnecessary ridicule in hopes that the challenger will give up and go away. The scientific method is a cruel beast that cares not of our credentials, not of our livelihood, and most of all cares nothing for our pride. As a species we need to check these feelings at the door and be as objective as we can. The scientific community does an ok job at present, but definitely needs much more improvement.

Matt, I love your series! One comment - Sabine posits that Einstein's "spooky action at a distance" is in reference to the instantaneous collapse of the wave function everywhere and not to entanglement. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on that. BTW it'd be fantastic if you would collaborate on some videos together!

Interesting. Bricmont claims something similar in his Making Sense of Quantum Mechanics

Measuring an entangled pair collapses their shared wave function, so the Nobel laureates’ experiment proved both. So while the focus is entanglement, they also demonstrated instantaneous wave function collapse in a more specific case.

Sabine seems very grounded in reality and is open to saying we don't know things instead of riding an infinite number of ridiculous trains off into the sunset. She is my go to for sensible physics, as well as don. This channel, while often silly or talking about topics they don't know a lot about, can be enjoyable to watch though.

Sabine loves both Einstein and Superdeterminism. According to Brian Greene and many others, Sabine is wrong. Spooky Action was Entanglement.

@@mikkel715 I'd love to hear them discuss it. Their process and approach is almost more interesting than the actual conclusion. I'm not saying Sabine is right or wrong, would just love to hear them together. Though it would also be good to somehow figure out definitively what he was referring to.

The state of quantum entangled particles is determined and locked in at the time of entanglement. Grab one particle and leave the other behind and travel far away. Take a peek at either particle and automatically know the state of the other because the entanglement, by definition, makes this so. So the options are a or b. The two particles are jumping between AB & BA. You finally take a peek some time after and the particle you have locks in to A Or B And now you know the other psrticle.
