The universe is not made up of particles. #quantumphysics

Professor Sean Carroll explains that the universe is not made up of particles but fields.

Commenting so youtube recommends these kinds of videos to me.

Physics is getting harder to comprehend 🥴

[dudewrapsupreme]

i’m very glad there are people who understand these concepts (i can’t) and can continue to do their research (i have no idea what is happening)

A particle is an observed field that catalyzes space/time.

The most productive short i have seen this week.

He had me at "sloppy approximation"

Just when you thought you were dumb, they add another level.

Full video's link, please. Thank you

This is what I love about Science.
Just when you think you've understood a concept, you realize that there's always more.

Rando fact: We have a device that has the ability to hear what is going on in a room by looking at the vibrations on a plant. It doesn't even need to be a live feed.

Always thought of this. Since matter is just condensed energy then what if it's just a concentration of energy in a field

[gujwdhufjijjpo]

I've actually kinda thought of this before. Like, what if particles are just fields so small we can visualize it as a particle.

That’s how you get the blamfs and essentially how a plumbus is built.

Not gonna lie, you had me up to 57s. Then it’s Illuminati goat turtles all the way down.

Sean Carol Is my favorite physicist!!! ❤️

[johnnyguinn]

Well, that got deep quickly...lol
The more I try to learn this stuff so I can feel smart, the more I learn how I'm really not smart at all.

[techdecipher]

I totally understand this, and yeah this sounds interesting and makes sense more than the partical..

[milesobrien]

Feel like ancient buddha type people understood things like this. Some of the things they say seem profoundly similar to what we are learning in quantum physics now.

A field, in the context of physics, is a mathematical abstraction that helps us describe and understand physical phenomena. It is a tool that we use to model the behavior of physical systems, and it is not itself a physical thing.
