Quantum Physics: The Laws That Govern Our Universe [4K] | The Secrets of Quantum Physics | Spark

Professor Jim Al-Khalili traces the story of arguably the most important, accurate and yet perplexing scientific theory ever: quantum physics.

The story of quantum physics starts at the beginning of the 20th century with scientists trying to better understand how light bulbs work. This simple question soon led scientists deep into the hidden workings of matter, into the sub-atomic building blocks of the world around us. Here they discovered phenomena unlike any encountered before - a realm where things can be in many places at once, where chance and probability call the shots and where reality appears to only truly exist when we observe it.

It’s kinda crazy how nobody’s talking about the book whispers of manifestation on borlest

Jim Al-Khalili makes complicated topics easy to understand.

I agree with the comment below. I've practically studied my way into degrees on here. The beauty of life is magnified when coupled with knowledge. The fact that the morning glories opened with the rising sun always gave a smile. Now, the process and it's reasoning are no longer a secret to me, but instead it's more of a connection to the secret world around me . A Spark in the abyss🤗❤️

For the first time in my life i understood the Double slit theory, for the first time in my life i understood something about Quantum physics. I love watching this type of documentaries without never understanding a damn thing, don´t ask me why, heh. The man in this video explains it so slow and well. Thank you so much

[signwatcher]

Twenty - six years of learning, being taught by some of the brightest minds most diverse people on the planet, ,so many professors, Doctors, great teachers that i lost track of the number years ago . I want to bring to everyone's attention this magnificent man teaching us today, his abilities to get a message across to us is nothing short of amazing, my hat is off to you sir, Trust me i've had enough teachers to know who is the very best, you get that award hands down ., thank you for putting forth the effort, i know you did.

Wow, this gives a whole new meaning to the saying "If a tree falls in the forest, and there’s no one around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

[wallraven]

This is the first time that I have genuinely understood the double slit experiment and what it meant for light to be both a particle and a wave. And it’s crazier then I imagined.

[TomGrubbe]

I never knew quantum biology was a thing. Fascinating and entertaining at the same time. Cudos to the cinematographer as well. The photography in this series is exceptionally good.

[pablodaproducer]

This was the most understanding I've ever gotten about quantum physics from one video ..thank you

[thereindeertherabbitthebat]

This is GREAT. It's hard to believe that knowledge such as this is immediately available for us to enjoy, anytime we wish, wherever we wish, and completely free at that. Always having access to these tiny, pocket sized encyclopedias wherever we go. Unreal... we're living in the freaking future! 😱

[TheSlashdt]

I keep getting a documentary in between my ads

[elenakoi]

Wow! I have had the Copenhagen Interpretation explained to me countless times. I thought I had a pretty good understanding of it, but I think it just now fully sunk in. I love that we have educational resources like this.

[karlclark]

Good thing about this video is it makes people like me who missed a lot of education -, probably basic education-understand and become interested in Physics. THANKYOU
My kids amaze me.

The famous anecdote: when a person who is 120 years old is asked how they managed to live that long; the old person answers--"never argue with anyone", and the curious Jack screams, "but that's impossible" and the old one answers: "you are absolutely right!" )) All scientists are right, they are each explaining a different angle of that What makes Life and Reality to be. Nothing is wrong and nothing is right, it is as if arguing, is the Sun solid or Ever-changing. Great Video, makes One to experience reality! Thank You.

[youtubeviewer]

The ideas presented here didn’t exist until someone else heard them, read them, understood them. Makes perfect sense to me.

[dylan_curious]

This is a fascinating explanation of the nature of reality and the test that was conducted to determine whether Einstein or Bohr was right. It's amazing to think that the experiment conducted by John Clauser and his team was able to prove that Einstein's version of reality was incorrect, and that quantum mechanics is a more accurate representation of the nature of the universe. The explanation of the experiment was very clear and easy to understand, and it's fascinating to think about the implications of this discovery for our understanding of the world around us. Overall, a great video that really makes you think about the nature of reality and our place in the universe.

Thank you very much for your again beautiful visualized lecture on quantum-physics. At one point I got stuck, at time-clock 1:42:10, Quote: [ "..in a bizarre but very real sense it's heading in every direction at the same time" ]] E.Q.. Maybe you will wonder why. Here is my premise: "NOTHING (that exists) IS (in) THE SAME TIME! Also bizarre but: how did I came to this statement? Well, last decennial I have some fun in sharing a mysterious riddle which involves the absolute END of TIME. Relatives and other friends are amazed about the simplicity of the answer if once heard. Here is the riddle: "What has no begin and no end and IS still continuously beginning AND ending "at the same time?" The answer is (the) NOW.Why? All aspects of reality within scientific context are: Time, Space, Energy, Mass (or FORM), Consciousness and last but not least Infinity It Self. If ONE of these aspects IS proved to be INFINITE than ALL aspects must be infinite! Because we can know that whatever IS infinite, IT possesses NOT one single property, IS invisible and can NOT exist! Let us start with the aspect Time: What IS IT than? How long takes One moment, being NOW, in time? NONE! IS Infinite! Proof? Where become, while everlasting changing, <1. PAST - 2. PRESENT and >3. FUTURE ONE singular, infinite POINT? The NOW Itself is it not? There's a perfect NUMBER for the perfect property of NOW: The start-number Pi (or Py which I prefer) is the basic, whole number 3 which stands for past, present, future as ONE TRINITY, the decimals are standing for the infinite changing of the universe. Well, if time is infinite, space is infinite, mass (or Form) is infinite THAN Consciousness must be ALSO in essence being INFINITE THOUGHT-power, Infinite SOURCE-energy, (Holy or Absolute) LOVE-SPIRIT, Omnicreator, GOD! All bizarre is IN THE (human) PERCEPTION! Do you agree?

[trapped-ion]

Great storytelling -as someone(me) with a postgraduate Physics degree, this was a great documentary. I really enjoyed it👍

[MarioMewis]

Thank you Jim for your easy to understand explanations

[PlonsNard]

I did not understand any of this. As a beta person it is hard to let go of known laws in physics. I recently attended a wonderfull course by Prof Pierre Capel and got introduced to this. It is hard since logic is out of the window. But I love it !
Thank you for this beautifull journey 👍👏🇳🇱❤
