Professor Brian Cox explains quantum mechanics in one minute

[goodcitizen-ftbg]

I’d love to attend a seminar or Ted talk with Bryan

[shepherdofsheeple]

Fantastic! Bryan’s ability to make me feel like I actually know what the absolute hell he’s talking about is uncanny.

[MichaelMeridius]

Thats easy for Professor Cox to say, not so easy for the rest of us mere mortals.

[gilbertozuniga]

The rule might be simple, but the math is from hell.

*"We are trying to prove ourselves wrong as quickly as possible, because only in that way can we find progress." -- Richard Feynman*
*"Religion is a culture of faith; science is a culture of doubt. I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned." -- Richard Feynman*

[FullersDuck]

I understood each individual word, and some of the phrases, but hearing them all together made me realise how useless my A level physics grade is.

[jeffreychandler]

This is interesting from Dr.Cox. Now I see why Dr. Einstein called it, "Spooky" physics. This transcends, conventional, classical physics! Mind boggling!

[tolkienfan]

The action principle is one of the most intriguing ideas I've encountered.

[BenTheMan]

Thank you, Brian. I think we all knew this but never talk about it.

So actualy when you go to smaller scales, you go to more gaos, where energy can be borrowed from space to materialise itself. Are these space sheets also not moving, making it even harder to understand where a partical on these small scales move to, there where bigger masses are much less influenced by this because they hold each others more in ballance on a course? Take for instance a tumbling meteor... It moves in 1 main direction, but also each atom moves in a tumbling patern, that can be seen in the big world, but can not be understand on this small scale. When messured there is a probability, but not a absolute direction, because of influences you can not messure on that scale. Because of this you see quantum mechanics in the small world, where obvious directions (do not exist), they look random.

Sounds too much like the probability of England winning the "penalty shootout" at a European Cup Final. 😂

[zachheldman]

At risk of sounding stupid, I ask,
What causes things to spin/rotate against what causes things to condense or expand such as the universe

[BogdanDumiter]

This formula could easily be used in quantum computing algorithms with vast applications.

[angelelubin]

Thank goodness! No music so we can actually hear what he's saying! Bravo!

[mitchmcculloch]

It’s a simple rule if you are a genius

[izzabelladogalini]

Both Jim and Brian are extremely clever and knowledgeable scientists, the other thing they share is the ability to simply communicate the very complex to those of us not so clever and knowledgeable.

[RamanujanPi]

That's why Feynman is Feynman 😂🎉🎉

[nithinkumar]

Then why iam at the same place for a whole day..

[johanb.]

Way above my head quantum mechanics, but I can listen to this man for hours. He explains everything so well.

[morpher]

I would think something like magnetism would influence the probability
