I prepared this summary to introduce you to the topic:
The Higgs boson is the fundamental particle associated with the Higgs field, a field that gives mass to other fundamental particles such as electrons and quarks. A particle’s mass determines how much it resists changing its speed or position when it encounters a force.
In the Higgs boson’s case, the field came first. The Higgs field was proposed in 1964 as a new kind of field that fills the entire Universe and gives mass to all elementary particles. The Higgs boson is a wave in that field. Its discovery confirms the existence of the Higgs field.
The Higgs boson underpins the whole Standard Model like a jigsaw piece, spurring on our curiosity and creating a more accurate picture of the universe around us. Since the beginning of humanity, curiosity has fuelled the advancement of science.
The key distinguishing feature of Higgs’s contribution was that, as an afterthought, he predicted the existence of a new massive particle left over from the process he had worked out in the Highlands. This particle would later bear his name: the Higgs boson.
The Higgs boson is the only fundamental particle known to be scalar, meaning it has no quantum spin. This fact answers questions about our universe, but it also raises new ones.
The Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism introduced a new quantum field that today we call the Higgs field, whose quantum manifestation is the Higgs boson. Only particles that interact with the Higgs field acquire mass. “It is exactly this mechanism,” Cerutti adds, “that creates all the complexity of the Standard Model.”
There was not yet any direct evidence that the Higgs field existed, but even without direct proof, the accuracy of its predictions led scientists to believe the theory might be true.
What did Stephen Hawking say about Higgs boson?
Quote/What Hawking said in 2013 when the discovery of the Higgs boson was confirmed: “physics would be far more interesting if [the Higgs boson] had not been found”.
When Stephen Hawking and I visited the Large Hadron Collider, he hoped for an unexpected physics breakthrough. His dreams may not be impossible. “I hope you’ll make black holes,” Stephen said with a broad smile.
The elusive ‘God particle’ discovered by scientists in 2012 has the potential to destroy the universe, famed British physicist Stephen Hawking has warned. According to Hawking, at very high energy levels the Higgs boson, which gives shape and size to everything that exists, could become unstable. This, he said, could cause a “catastrophic vacuum decay” that would lead space and time to collapse.
Hawking was the first to set out a theory of cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. He was a vigorous supporter of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Does quantum entanglement make faster-than-light communication possible? What is NOT random? http://bit.ly/NOTrandoVe
First, I know this video is not easy to understand. Thank you for taking the time to attempt to understand it. I’ve been working on this for over six months over which time my understanding has improved. Quantum entanglement and spooky action at a distance are still debated by professors of quantum physics (I know because I discussed this topic with two of them).
Does hidden information (called hidden variables by physicists) exist? If it does, the experiment violating Bell inequalities indicates that hidden variables must update faster than light – they would be considered ‘non-local’. On the other hand if you don’t consider the spins before you make the measurement then you could simply say hidden variables don’t exist and whenever you measure spins in the same direction you always get opposite results, which makes sense since angular momentum must be conserved in the universe.
Everyone agrees that quantum entanglement does not allow information to be transmitted faster that light. There is no action either detector operator could take to signal the other one – regardless of the choice of measurement direction, the measured spins are random with 50/50 probability of up/down.
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that you can never simultaneously know the exact position and the exact speed of an object. Why not? Because everything in the universe behaves like both a particle and a wave at the same time. Chad Orzel navigates this complex concept of quantum physics.

The race between J. Robert Oppenheimer and Werner Heisenberg during World War II to develop the atomic bomb is a fascinating chapter in the history of science and warfare.
Oppenheimer, an American theoretical physicist, led the Manhattan Project, the United States’ secret endeavour to develop the first nuclear weapons. He was instrumental in bringing together a diverse group of top scientists, including many European refugees, to work on this project at Los Alamos, New Mexico. Under Oppenheimer’s leadership, the team successfully developed and tested the world’s first atomic bomb in July 1945.
On the other side of the Atlantic, Werner Heisenberg, a German theoretical physicist and one of the key pioneers of quantum mechanics, was leading Nazi Germany’s nuclear weapon project. However, Heisenberg’s efforts were not as successful. There are many theories as to why Germany’s atomic bomb project failed, ranging from lack of resources and Allied bombing campaigns to Heisenberg’s possible moral qualms about creating such a devastating weapon.
In the end, the race was decisively won by Oppenheimer and the Manhattan Project. The atomic bombs they developed were dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, leading to Japan’s surrender and the end of World War II. The legacy of this race, however, has had profound and lasting impacts on global politics, ethics, and the scientific community.

Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle says that if we know everything about where a particle is located, we know nothing about its momentum. Conversely, if we know everything about its momentum, then we know nothing about where the particle is located. In other words, this principle means that we cannot measure the position and momentum of a particle with absolute precision or certainty.
But waves, as you know, don’t exist in one specific place. However, you can certainly identify and measure specific characteristics of a wave pattern as a whole, most notably, its wavelength, which is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs. Particles that are as small or even smaller than atoms have large enough wavelengths to be detected, and can therefore be measured in experiments.
Thus, if we have a wave whose wavelength and momentum can be measured accurately, then it’s impossible to measure its specific position. Conversely, if we know the position of a particle with high certainty, then we cannot accurately determine its momentum. This is what Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle is all about.

In 1939, Werner Heisenberg joined the “Uranium Club” to try to make a nuclear bomb for Hitler. Why? He didn’t love the Nazis and he had plenty of opportunities to leave. This is the story of the moral failings of a brilliant man.
14 Jan 2013
Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle tells us that it is impossible to simultaneously measure the position and momentum of a particle with infinite precision. In our everyday lives we virtually never come up against this limit, hence why it seems peculiar. In this experiment a laser is shone through a narrow slit onto a screen. As the slit is made narrower, the spot on the screen also becomes narrower. But at a certain point, the spot starts becoming wider. This is because the photons of light have been so localised at the slit that their horizontal momentum must become less well defined in order to satisfy Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle.

Hungarian-American physicist, Edward Teller (1908-2003), helped to develop the atomic bomb and provided the theoretical framework for the hydrogen bomb. He remained a staunch advocate of nuclear power, calling for the development of advanced thermonuclear weapons. [Listener: John H. Nuckolls]
TRANSCRIPT: I would like to finish my story about Bohr and, in a way, about Heisenberg, by telling you of a very sad fact. When the Nazis came, when Hitler occupied Denmark, Bohr was in danger of his life. He had a Jewish grandfather, I think, at least. He was to escape. Shortly before that, Heisenberg listened- came to him. Bohr came out to America and told us that Heisenberg is working on the atomic bomb for the Nazis. Heisenberg and Bohr have been good friends. Bohr did enormous damage to Heisenberg’s reputation. I heard him say that, I even heard him say that in a one-to-one conversation. I never quite believed it. I went back to Germany, found out – in more ways than in a short time I can tell you – but found out what actually happened. Heisenberg went to visit Bohr, he had to talk with him. He talked with him in his home, the Carlsberg Castle, the, the beer producing Carlsberg people or- I don’t know whether it was beer, but they gave it to Bohr. And when they were talking indoors and Heisenberg was afraid that there might be- that the Nazis might have put in listening apparatus, he said things- I am working for my government and it’s good to work for my country. That is what Bohr quoted. Then they went out into the garden and Heisenberg was no longer afraid. And then he added- I am with a group working on the atomic bomb. I hope we won’t succeed. I hope the Americans won’t succeed either. I cannot do otherwise than give an ab- abbreviated version of all this but here is one point, one generalization which I would like to make. My years in Germany, about which I want to talk a little more later, have been at a wonderful constructive period of science. Hitler destroyed it. You were not allowed to talk about Einstein. A Jewish lie, relativity. Heisenberg resisted it. I have many detailed indications that Heisenberg, if he did not directly sabotage the work on the atomic bomb, he never seriously worked on it. After war he and maybe ten other people were taken to a place in England and kept there and now the British did listen by secret apparatus to what they were saying to each other. I couldn’t get that record until two years ago when it was published. And Heisenberg said about atomic bombs some of things which clearly prove that he did not think about the subject. They were told in August 1945 that we’d dropped an atomic bomb and the Germans didn’t believe it. And then Heisenberg told them- Perhaps they did, and explained to them how the atomic bomb worked, wrongly so. A point about which I am very proud because the mistake that Heisenberg then made, I made a few years earlier when I was starting to think about it – and found out within a few months that it was wrong. That Heisenberg should make the same mistake gives me pleasure. But it shows, in the case of the excellent intelligence of Heisenberg, that he never seriously tried to work on the subject.
All Physicists In Oppenheimer & Their Scientific Contributions
6 Aug 2023
In the crucible of World War II, amidst chaos and conflict, a clandestine assembly of brilliant minds, under the leadership of J. Robert Oppenheimer, embarked on an unprecedented mission with far-reaching consequences. One of the key figures in this endeavour was Ernest Lawrence, portrayed by Josh Hartnett, who revolutionized cyclotrons and contributed to the discovery of elements through nuclear fission. Leo Szilard, played by Máté Haumann, was instrumental in initiating the project, urging President Roosevelt to develop atomic weapons and later advocating for a peaceful use of atomic energy. Niels Bohr, portrayed by Kenneth Branagh, provided valuable advice and continued to champion peaceful applications of atomic knowledge. Edward Teller, known as “the father of the hydrogen bomb,” played by While Safdie, played a pivotal role in the development of fusion-based weapons, despite differences with Oppenheimer.
Hans Bethe, portrayed by Gustaf Skarsgård, oversaw the crucial T (Theoretical) Division that calculated the power of the atomic bomb and later became an advocate for arms control. Isidor Isaac Rabi, played by David Krumholtz, brought scientific expertise and organizational skills to the project, supporting Oppenheimer during his hearings. David Hill, portrayed by Rami Malik, testified against unfair treatment of Oppenheimer during Strauss’s Senate confirmation hearing. Vannevar Bush, played by Matthew Modin, played a crucial administrative role in initiating and prioritizing the Manhattan Project. Robert Serber, played by Michael Angarano, provided essential lectures and theories vital to the atomic bomb’s design. Richard Feynman, portrayed by Jack Quaid, developed critical formulas and contributed to safety procedures. Albert Einstein, portrayed by Tom Conti, lent his support to the nuclear program after being convinced by Szilard.
Kenneth Bainbridge, played by Josh Peck, directed the Trinity test, and Enrico Fermi, portrayed by Danny Deferrari, led the creation of the first nuclear reactor. Seth Neddermeyer, played by Devon Bostick, supported the implosion technique, and Luis Walter Alvarez, portrayed by Alex Wolff, made crucial inventions for the bomb’s success. Klaus Fuchs, portrayed by Christopher Denham, infamously spied for the Soviet Union, and Werner Heisenberg, played by Matthias Schweighöfer, played a significant role in Germany’s atomic program. Together, these brilliant scientists’ collective genius gave birth to the most devastating weapon the world had ever seen, ending the greatest war in history.

Top 20 Quotes of Isidor Isaac Rabi: ■ I think physicists are the Peter Pans of the human race. They never grow up and they keep their curiosity. ■ My mother made me a scientist without ever intending to. Every other Jewish mother in Brooklyn would ask her child after school, So? Did you learn anything today? But not my mother. Izzy, she would say, did you ask a good question today? That difference – asking good questions – made me become a scientist. ■ If you decide you don’t have to get A’s, you can learn an enormous amount in college. ■ [Science is] a great game. It is inspiring and refreshing. The playing field is the universe itself. ■ As yet, if a man has no feeling for art he is considered narrow-minded, but if he has no feeling for science this is considered quite normal. This is a fundamental weakness. ■ Physics filled me with awe, put me in touch with a sense of original causes. Physics brought me closer to God. That feeling stayed with me throughout my years in science. Whenever one of my students came to me with a scientific project, I asked only one question, ‘Will it bring you nearer to God?’ ■ There are questions which illuminate, and there are those that destroy. I was always taught to ask the first kind. ■ The scientist does not defy the universe. He accepts it. It is his dish to savour, his realm to explore; it is his adventure and never-ending delight. It is complaisant and elusive but never dull. It is wonderful both in the small and in the large. In short, its exploration is the highest occupation for a gentleman. ■ Physics is an other-world thing, it requires a taste for things unseen, even unheard of- a high degree of abstraction… These faculties die off somehow when you grow up… profound curiosity happens when children are young. I think physicists are the Peter Pans of the human race… Once you are sophisticated, you know too much- far too much. Pauli once said to me, “I know a great deal. I know too much. I am a quantum ancient.”. ■ You know that, according to quantum theory, if two particles collide with enough energy you can, in principle, with an infinitesimal probability, produce two grand pianos. ■ Science itself is badly in need of integration and unification. The tendency is more and more the other way … Only the graduate student, poor beast of burden that he is, can be expected to know a little of each. As the number of physicists increases, each specialty becomes more self-sustaining and self-contained. Such Balkanization carries physics, and indeed, every science further away, from natural philosophy, which, intellectually, is the meaning and goal of science. ■ It was eerie. I saw myself in that machine. I never thought my work would come to this. Upon seeing a distorted image of his face, reflected on the inside cylindrical surface of the bore while inside an MRI (magnetic-resonance-imaging) machine-a device made possible by his early physical researches on nuclear magnetic resonance (1938). ■ We must also teach science not as the bare body of fact, but more as human endeavor in its historic context-in the context of the effects of scientific thought on every kind of thought. We must teach it as an intellectual pursuit rather than as a body of tricks. ■ To me, science is an expression of the human spirit, which reaches every sphere of human culture. It gives an aim and meaning to existence as well as a knowledge, understanding, love, and admiration for the world. It gives a deeper meaning to morality and another dimension to esthetics. ■ There isn’t a scientific community. It is a culture. It is a very undisciplined organization. ■ Most new insights come only after a superabundant accumulation of facts have removed the blindness which prevented us from seeing what later comes to be regarded as obvious. ■ My ideal man is Benjamin Franklin-the figure in American history most worthy of emulation … Franklin is my ideal of a whole man. … Where are the life-size-or even pint-size-Benjamin Franklins of today? ■ Suddenly, there was an enormous flash of light, the brightest light I have ever seen or that I think anyone has ever seen. It blasted; it pounced; it bored its way into you. It was a vision which was seen with more than the eye. It was seen to last forever. You would wish it would stop; altogether it lasted about two seconds. ■ It was eerie. I saw myself in that machine. I never thought my work would come to this. ■ We gave you an atomic bomb, what do you want, mermaids?

Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory in physics that provides a description of the physical properties of nature at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. It is the foundation of all quantum physics including quantum chemistry, quantum field theory, quantum technology, and quantum information science.
Quantum physics tells us that every object in the universe has both particle-like and wave-like properties. It’s not that everything is really waves, and just sometimes looks like particles, or that everything is made of particles that sometimes fool us into thinking they’re waves. Jan 20, 2010
What is quantum mechanics in simple terms? Quantum mechanics explains how the universe works at a scale smaller than atoms. It is also called quantum physics or quantum theory. Mechanics is the part of physics that explains how things move and quantum is the Latin word for ‘how much’ . … Quantum mechanics describes how the particles that make up atoms work.
Quantum mechanics, science dealing with the behaviour of matter and light on the atomic and subatomic scale. It attempts to describe and account for the properties of molecules and atoms and their constituents—electrons, protons, neutrons, and other more esoteric particles such as quarks and gluons. Nov 27, 2019
What exactly is quantum? In physics, a quantum (plural quanta) is the minimum amount of any physical entity (physical property) involved in an interaction. … This means that the magnitude of the physical property can take on only discrete values consisting of integer multiples of one quantum.
In fact, a quantum leap is amazingly small. The word quantum refers to the smallest amount of something that you can have. You can’t break a quantum of something into smaller parts. A quantum is the most basic building block. Sep 14, 2017
What is the difference between quantum mechanics and quantum physics? Both “quantum mechanics” and “quantum physics” mean the study of subatomic particles. But “quantum mechanics” is more specific. It’s the term used for the field once it was formulated into mathematical laws. Jun 28, 2019
Who invented quantum mechanics?Niels Bohr and Max Planck, two of the founding fathers of Quantum Theory, each received a Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on quanta. Einstein is considered the third founder of Quantum Theory because he described light as quanta in his theory of the Photoelectric Effect, for which he won the 1921 Nobel Prize.
Is the quantum realm real? The quantum realm (or quantum parameter) in physics is the scale at which quantum mechanical effects become important when studied as an isolated system. Typically, this means distances of 100 nanometers (10−9 meters) or less, or at very low temperatures (extremely close to absolute zero).
Does Consciousness Influence Quantum Mechanics? The wave function & the Copenhagen interpretation
It’s not surprising that the profound weirdness of the quantum world has inspired some outlandish explanations – nor that these have strayed into the realm of what we might call mysticism. One particularly pervasive notion is the idea that consciousness can directly influence quantum systems – and so influence reality. Today we’re going to see where this idea comes from, and whether quantum theory really supports it.

Si hay un experimento que revela lo extraño que es el mundo… Es el Experimento de la Doble Rendija. ¿Preparado para conocer la naturaleza cuántica de la realidad?
Los físicos que aquí aparecen los he escogido de manera arbitraria. Realmente la mecánica cuántica fue construida por muchísimos grandes científicos.
Bien podrían haber salido gente como: Max Planck, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Louis de Broglie, Arthur Compton, Albert Einstein, Erwin Schrödinger, Max Born, John von Neumann, Paul Dirac, Enrico Fermi, Wolfgang Pauli, Max von Laue, Freeman Dyson, David Hilbert, Wilhelm Wien, Satyendra Nath Bose, Arnold Sommerfeld, Álvaro Ojeda…
Un pequeño detalle: en la realidad si ejecutas el experimento y haces el juego de separar las cajas, cuando las alejas, las concentracion no se alejas; se juntan. Y al contrario, si juntas las cajas, las concentraciones se alejan. Es algo contra intuitivo, pero está bien explicado cuando estudias la interferencia que se produce.
