His brain never stops working on physics and he doesnt even make a mistake or say anything wrong, im just speechless.

[@daxramdac7194]

Yeah his passion is truly next level. I've seen his presentations from like 10 years ago and this one has the same level of energy and enthusiasm. And it's weird how, despite how fast he speaks sometimes, and the precision he uses, I am still able to absorb it, the stuff that I understand anyway lol.

[@wacksparrow88]

One of my favorite people who deserve more praise for their work. Thank you

[@diana-pestana]

One of the coolest physics colloquium I've ever seen. I'm stunned.

[@robertvarner9519]

Too bad it's all horse feathers.

[@pounchoutz]

I love this guy's sense of humor. The little chuckle after parts of his story, I'm going to take that. So lighthearted for a serious, serious subject

[@eddievangundy4510]

Love every lecture that I have seen from Nima! What a brilliant person, has worked very hard, it's very intuitive, what a great sharing of ideas with us! Thank you, sir!

[@quarkraven]

I know Nima prefers blackboard but I like his marker designs and handwriting too. (To say nothing of his infectious passion and charisma)

"Can I have ten more minutes?" ... still going strong 40 minutes later

[@nickidaisydandelion4044]

Helena Petrovna Blavatsky wrote about the Ether and the Higgs particle long before Peter Higgs. When particles become elusive and defy the laws of Newtonian physics that's the realm of the Ether where thoughts travel from one brain to the other.

[@frun]

Yes, theosophists described a quark as a triplet of fundamental subquarks long ago. Physics is still anware of their existence.

[@allenmueller]

I hope Particle Fever is a book before it becomes a movie. ( There has to be a Nima book, someday. )

[@eddievangundy4510]

Well it already is a movie. Co-starring Savas Dimopoulos!

[@TheYourbox]

Nima is the one to bring things to the point. Why not asking simple questions. He does. It takes anybody whoever was in physics away and it sounds way more reasonable as anybody else. It is down to earth.Does anybody know whether he is with Steven Wolfram. Well it is probably not the same thing, but Grassmanian and Irriducibility might probably come together in particular with virtual particles, which, lets be honest,do not exist. Not doing any criticism to Feynman. He is indisputably the best, but probably in Quantum Physics, we are leaving the world of statistics today and make this world real.

We should not be afraid to ask any questions but mine seem to go perpetually unanswered. I am not a Physicist - all the more reason for someone who knows Physics to assess CIG Theory. I've reached the end. Also, I've added what I believe are interesting and pertinent comments on my Channel. Could someone kindly answer my balloon question. I appear to be the only one leaving comments to myself - silly ol' me. Anyhow - Professor Nima Arkani-Hamed is amazing! Incredible! My excitement over at least in my own mind, a possible resolution to the Vacuum Catastrophe Problem. While I mentioned in my book "I Have Become Space" that CIG Theory might solve the Catastrophe Problem, I had not until a week or two ago, fully resolved it in my thought patterns. I saw in a video ( link below) that the science community was using the lowest energy value to calculate the g/cm3 environment, and compare this to the value of the vacuum. Well, this is comparing apples to peanuts! One must use the density created via the highest energy level, the fastest rates, whereby the mass turns to the vacuum. As in the MTS equation. As we know, CIG Theory reinterprets Einstein's Field Equation in terms of the "=" sign, as opposed to a proportionality only. Matter is curved spacetime and space is unfolded matter. And, as regards the worst prediction in the history of Physics, perhaps some mathematician (Nima ???) could learn CIG Theory and calculate that the value obtained via the Standard Model Quantum mechanical version as represented by the 10 to the 93rd g/cm3 Zero Point Ground State Matter that has not yet fully reached its spatial dimension. How much faster would that matter have to travel to reach the full spatiality of the vacuum density of 10 to the minus 29 g/cm3 ? Then, this difference in the rates of motion of the entities will renormalize the values. One may see that the Ground State responsible for the so called Standard Model Zero Point is actually the slowest state, and therefore the most massive. Then it is no wonder that the 10 to the 93rd g/cm3 value is so much more massive, as the mass has not yet turned into the vacuum. In the graph at 3:17 (), and the accompanying comments, it is stated that Zero Point Energy or Vacuum Energy is the lowest possible energy that a quantum system can have, and 3:41 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWfaf52Mgd6Mf7c (kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWfaf52Mgd6Mf7c)) states that the ground state (1/137 "c") is the lowest Energy. But the lowest energy (rate of motion) is the most massive per CIG Theory. Therefore, the 10 to the 93rd g/cm3 exists as the unit area is so much more massive as it has not turned to space. The space exists as 10 to the minus 29 g/cm3 - so much more diluted density. The Ground State is actually the greatest density mass since it is the slowest. CIG Theory explains the Vacuum catastrophe in this manner.The times above are taken from: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoaloKJqgK52ebs&ab_channel=SeethePattern I've added therefore the Vacuum Catastrophe to the list of things (#34) that CIG Theory resolves. I may be going out on a limb but I've got nothing to lose as I've lost everything already. I tried to teach ChatGPT my CIG Theory but it said academia needs to scrutinize it. But, it did coin the term "Spacematter" - so it did understand conceptually my CIG Theory. For those interested (perhaps one of your students?) and in the context of the Table on Wiki of Quantum Interpretations ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpretations_of_quantum_mechanics ) , here are my thoughts on CIG Theory as regards its interpretation: Deterministic: YES> Ontic Wave Function: YES> Unique History: YES> Hidden Variables: YES *1> Collapsing Wave Function: YES> Observer Role: No * 2> Local Dynamics: YES> Counterfactual Definiteness: YES *3> Extant Universal Wave Function: YES *4> *1 Found> *2 Any Introduction that changes the rate of motion of the particle will> collapse the wave function.> *3 If all known parameters are defined in advance (i.e. there is no> spontaneous collapse as in GRW)> *4 Everything is everything else - as such a Universal Wave Function Exists> (Many Worlds exist only over infinite time, not in the same Universe)> . To entice you to study up on CIG Theory, the following is what the Theory purports to accomplish: 1) Solve/resolve the confusion surrounding the Double Slit experiment and place it's solution on a firm ground with reality 2) Offer up that new found reality 3) Redefine matter; Redefine Space 4) Combine the fundamentals 5) Bring back a cohesive concept of Conservation of Energy as regards Dark Energy and the accelerating Universe 6) Offer up a new science of pressure 7) Explain Dark Matter 8) Explain Dark Energy 9) Offer a solution to the Horizon Problem 10) Offer a solution to the Core-Cusp problem 11) Offer a solution to the Mott Problem 12) Offer a solution to Quantum Tunneling 13) Offer a coherent explanation of Red Shift anomalies 14) Provides for a Theory of Quantum Gravity 15) Provides for the distinction between the Classical World and the Quantum World 16) Redefines the Correspondence Principle 17) Offers up a quantification of an atomic mass unit and it's potential spatial quantity 18) Maintains consistency with the idea of Quantum Decoherence 19) Maintains consistency with the idea of Superposition 20) Explains why the Universe is Accelerating 21) Explains 'Why" E=mc2 22) Explains "why" large things are large and small things are small 23) Offers up a solution to the Neutrino mass problem 24) Provides a solution to the Measurement problem 25) Expands on the concept of Virtual Particles 26) Provides a new and dynamic view of the Night sky 27) May explain Sonoluminescence 28) Contains & maintains "Black Holes" within the theory 29) May provide insight on entanglement 30) Contemplates all permutations of all fundamentals in one "Conceptual Equation" 31) Redefines Einstein's Field Equation in terms of the "=" sign, as opposed to a proportionality only 32) Maintains consistency with relativistic theory 33) Is based on sound logic 34) Vacuum Catastrophe 35) More I've also added the Mott Problem and Core-Cusp problem ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpaapqGljJV2bMk&ab_channel=AslanT ) (kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpaapqGljJV2bMk&ab_channel=AslanT) to the list of thing CIG resolves.

This may be the only lecturer containing the words "Higgs", "Collider", and "Fuck".

[@abrahambaktiar2548]

Nima, will you comment on the following topics: (1) Dr. Eugene Podkletnov "impulse gravity" experiments, the "impulse gravity" propagates at 64c (64 times the speed of light in vacuum) (2) Dr. Eugene Podkletnov "gravity shielding" experiment. (3) Collision of particles/photons that produce gravitons, any reference paper ? (4) Higgs particle (I rather like to name it "Higgs resonance") at 125 GeV, is it observable at Fermi-Lab which used Au instead of Pb (CERN LHC). Any differences ? (5) Scientist is planning 100 TeV collider, what to expect ?

[@ChadBroski.]

The answers to your questions are: Yes

[@abrahambaktiar2548]

@@ChadBroski. Is there any paper of Nima Arkani Hamed after 1999 ? on the extra (compact )dimension ?

[@BRunoAWAY]

Aonde que integração numérica de monte carlo entra nisso tudo??😢😂😅❤❤

[@abrahambaktiar2548]

Nima, would you comment on GRB 221009A 250 TeV detected at LHAASO, people start imagine ALP (Axion Like Particles) emanate from a Universe object, that converted into HE photons under Galactic magnetic Field. Thanks !

hello.....may suggest try a 'fractal' dimension e*D point between '2*D' and '3*D'...... with a (spin 0) center of mass point at centered at point e*D...... ....oh...oh....WTF....looks like ' massless-2' points and 'mass-3' points are both factored by zero divisor log(log('e' )) = 0 spinning point spanned by 3 Eigen vectors that point to a 3*D Euclidean point labeled by coordinate ( e, log(e), log(log(e)) ) ...... the point e*D act like a tunnel, some call point a wormhole....but peephole works best for me... ...........lets call the fractal dimension point e*D..... a universal 'zero divisor' .....that factorizes all points .....in both 2*D Euclidean and 3*D nonEuclidean geometric spaces ........suddenly....the mystery of the calculus's power has over the geometry of nature....can be explained using the 'straightest' line with a vector length equal e ...... ......two big thumbs up to.... Nima....you are great communicator

I love his talk. But, trying to get $ from the person, who holds the purse, a stupid sob.. 😅good luck !

[@robertvarner9519]

There is nothing new to be found in particle physics. But by all means build new accelerators to confirm this fact.

[@dft1]

and you are an expert? please.

[@robertvarner9519]

@@dft1 Yes, I am an expert. New powerful accelerators should be built in order to show that there are no new particles to be discovered. I'll be dead by that time but hopefully you'll be alive to appreciate the finding.

[@TJ-hs1qm]

@@robertvarner9519 finding new particles isn't the point. He's looking for answers to the whether "Higgs is more". Something theoretical reasoning can't decide without experimental evidence.
