From the Big Bang to Black Holes and Gravitational Waves - K. Thorne - 3/11/2016

[@asully3006]

Thank you KT, thank you. I've waited 50 years for this. The measurement.

[@legendwarrior85]

One of the best professors to explain complex things to layman !!!!!

[@VideographerExperience]

[@RandyLunn]

What an amazing story of the power of brilliant minds and hard work. Thank you Kip!

[@rubenanthonymartinez7034]

Nothing like a good con artist story, for suckers born every minute, sorry to say.

[@DrDeuteron]

I really felt Kip's Nobel...I heard him talking about LIGO for 30 years. Just a monumental accomplishment.

[@wibas2008]

congrats to Prof Kip Thorne for winning Nobel prize in Physics - the most prestigious even in Nobel prize categories

[@rubenanthonymartinez7034]

Amazing, he only proved that there's a sucker born every minute!

Video starts at 2:39 your welcome

[@EnglishPolishOnline]

I saw him in the Big Bang Theory about 2 years ago. I only just discovered he actually is a physicist in real life;) A very humble and likeable person.

[@zaimahbegum-diamond1660]

[@ibrahimnoon]

Outstanding! Clearly deserved his Nobel.

[@JanetGrech]

I saw KT in London, 2015, at the Interstellar Live presentation in Royal Albert Hall, where film score played in realtime. Pre-film talk hosted by Brian Cox with Chris Nolan and Hans Zimmer also present.

Imagine if we could find a small black hole near to us, perhaps only a few stellar masses, that we could use as a gravitational assist to deep space

[@tims.2832]

Now I know, why these scenes in Interstellar felt so impressive, almost disturbing: that’s narrated and pictured how it actually would be like.

[@GokuBlack-yg5kc]

The fact that stars orbit around a black hole the same way that the earth orbits around the sun (star) is just representative of how tiny we are.

[@healthinfo1314]

Yep they want you to think you are small and mean nothing.. Words and pictures and drawings are just that words and pictures and drawings not proof..

[@jagenaudas8605]

if I think about the barriers of universe , is it wrong to say in 4d the position of a planet or whatever in space is only defined by its mass and rotation? so the black holes would only be the wires to the "centrum" like teslas plasma ball.

Must be the excitement.

TBBT should forget for awhile Prof. Hawking,... Prof Thorne was at CalTech, InterStellar movie consultant and importantly he's a Noble laureate!!! Sheldon character must be very upset :-) Btw, thanks for his work in Interstellar, best "lecture" of gravity... :-)

*The reason why quantum mechanics contradicts the the concept of a singularity.* *The following are three quantum mechanical mechanism which will prohibit the formation of a singularity.* *Annihilation* can matter be compressible to a point of infinity? To get the answer we will simplify to improve the interaction; take two particles set, the electrons and a positron and accelerated them to a point of collision. What would happen in this scenario? Well, these particles will never come together to form a neutral particle of a higher density but according to the laws of physics these two particles will convert the energies into gamma rays photons in other words these fermions will become a high energy boson gamma that would radiate into the surrounding space, nature will never allow the creation of neutral particles in this case this is an example of how nature prohibits a concentration of matter to point of infinity, it is called mutual annihilation. *Coulomb's repulsive Force* Now, let's see another scenario where we have two protons which are positively charged particles and we will accelerate these particles towards a collision, we need to force together in order to create a high energy density particle with the charge of +2 , we quickly find out that nature prohibits this from happening due to the coulomb forces, which in this case is repelling Force, this repulsive Force is inversely proportional to the square the distance between the charge particles and if you increase the force to join these particles together the repelling force will also increase never allowing these bodies to merge into one here is another physical principle which will inhibit the creation of high density singularity. *Quantum tunneling* Now we introduce a thought experiment, say we have two or more quantum particles we would want to compress them by using a container we slowly move the walls of the container, reducing the cubic size (volume) of the container doing so the particles are more and more restrictive. The density is increasing, but before the container volume reaches zero the new phenomenon called tunneling takes effect. This new phenomena will not allow the confinement of these quantum particles within the container in other words a particles would escape the confines of the wall barrier, one more mechanism in nature that would never allow the density required for singularity to be formed.

[@RichardDLewis41]

On black holes: If you consider neutron stars of a range of masses you can show that a neutron star of 3.4 solar masses would create its own event horizon. See Appendix 7 of this paper: www.academia.edu/5009126/The_evolution_of_the_universe The proposal is that every black hole contains a neutron star of the mass attributed to the black hole. This contradicts the assumption that matter inside a black hole collapses to a singularity. Instead it is assumed that it is not possible to crush a neutron out of existence and neutron stars of even thousands of solar masses are stable but not observable because they form their own event horizon. Even the super massive black holes at the center of a galaxy are large neutron stars. This proposal is consistent with the observation that the largest observed neutron star is less than 3.4 solar masses. It is also consistent with the observation that the smallest detected black hole is greater than 3.4 solar masses. Richard

[@davidwilkie9551]

If time slows down near a black hole and due to acceleration, then relative to that, time is inflated away and in "stillness", so Einstein's Relativity is the same feature of spacetime as quantum bubble fields of frequencies. The concept of viewing higher and lower frequencies/dimensions from our own resonance/crystal bulk simplifies the idea of mass as an orthogonal cross section of a relatively linear gravity wave at hyper frequency. The Polar-cartesian coordinates result from a synchronization of modulation. The spinning BH would have a high frequency "orbital", superconducting? Time stops, space distributes. (modulation is scale shifting)

*This LIGO detection device is ultimately driven by software.* LIGO equipment records terabytes (1000's of gigabytes) of data every day, then by using computer software ( a search engine ) which searches through this vast database for the expected preconceived signal (data pattern) called template. And who created the templates? Answer; these templates were created by the scientist the mathematical theoreticians. In totality there are 250,000 templates. Some would say this is a point were scientific bias is introduced into the experiment. It could be argued, that the signals were created before the phenomena was observed . *Dubious methodology susceptible to misinterpretation* *The LIGO selected output is susceptible to misinterpretation* because the so-called chirp is actually a typical decay signature. In fact this type of signature can be replicated by a spinning coins experiment. Then the question should be asked; is it possible that this chirp could have been generated by something other than a black holes merger? I suspect that this frenzy for these detection could be a prelude to a scientific debacle! The epicycles of the 21st century. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5usXnuLr6Zjabc

LIGO is equivalent to.., how many Moon Shots worth of Excellent Physics? This lecture is about "First Chirp", and the story was that 1/3rd of the Hole combination was radiated as "gravitational waves", which seems about right intuitively because one of the projected probability dominance combinations, 0-1 of 3D holographics, in geometrical shapes is lost.., but only research could confirm that scenario-simulation. The basic Conception of Singularity positioning here-now forever Holographic Principle, applied to such an event, implies a large "Jump" of flattening and reshaping of entangled orbital, eg photon-phonon compositions distribution.., it's the "folding of Spacetime idea set in a legitimate interpretation of the Observable time duration timing modulation format.(?) It appears that every theory assumes the inherent transcendence of e-Pi-i interference positioning resonance imaging function, because of, (Einstein's theory) the absolute Totality of continuous creation connection Principle properties, empirical laws of evidence in measurable Physics, ..distribution cause-effect of time duration timing modulation Mathematics, here-now-forever cause-effect existence, sequences-relationships. The basic Conception of Singularity positioning here-now forever Hologram is observable fact, and Mathematics is how to think about it in a spectrum of oscillation, AM-FM variables, zero-infinity pure relative motion, (=>Einsteinian axial-tangential orthogonality, timing-spacing differential, ..Curvature), the real-ization of Singularity logarithmic timing-tangential difference distribution, or super-transcendental, hyper-hypo, singularity-spin projection drawing quantization, Hologram Interval.., etc, etc.

The Theory or rational imagination about Black Hole,it is great and admirable by using 'the Law of physics',speaker Honorable Kip Thorn.Everything is highest,support by Data from most modern Tester that was build from Data Hundred years.It was from Globally Expert and Scientists,was said more than 74 Institute from most advanced Science and Technology 15 Countries.I think,a must to listen,as there's no other Theories can go over those.I Never before had known about this.And was there for Hundred year ago.I have been thinking about,other than just listen 'Universe'.As understanding,Universe is anything may already know,so including anything else,'we' don't know yet.Before I heard the word Universe,somehow I had a Dream:I was somewhere around,there's a cheese player,sit with the Table in front.Soon after there's noise stronger than Ocean rumble (I live with a fisher Village,2 years,when still in Meddle School),but from long Distance.And if say Ocean noise is on Bass limit,the noise I was listening is much higher.Back to where 'I was',on dream,that kind of noise was left behind and another,must be a God(?),comes by each step is on a round 'Ball',as I see every step,the new comer was step on plant.And there's light up a Torch.He sit down with Cheese player.That's all I saw.But somehow that Dream stay on me.Sometime I think,it is just the content of a comedy story.Was said,Two Guy bath on a River,one of them dives down,jump up shows another couple Bucks in coin,said:"I see Two Gods play cheese,down there.They give me".Another Guy said:"I go down to see them".This Guy is smart,take some Gain sand,crass his face,jump up,said:"You're right,I see Them and asking for Money,they're angry through Cheese Table to my face,said,we gave that Money to the Guy,to split in Two".Because of the coincident,Cheese Table,then I keep tell myself,my dream may come from that comedy story.Anytime after,if I close my eyes there's a spiral started from my Head,go up bigger-and-bigger,up to Sky.Sometime I see the Twist,ask and Mother said:"It is Dragon from Heaven,down to drink water".I think,I had been seeing black Hole by my eyes or the vision follow imagination(!).Last Night I watched the Video Kip Thorn uses to show,on his Demo.And I don't know when and where,I saw Black Hole is double Tubing,of cause the space between Tubing is not just small as we see.When watch the multi-End Tubing show up,not the way the flow keeps run out from 'our' Universe.As I see like something 'backward'.My Idea is:Black Hole doesn't have dead End as well as Honorable Kip Thorn Demo,and not long forever long.I think,like a Helicopter multi-cylinders,the Black Hole gets planets or Stars when the 'valve' is open.If there's the missing Space (between Double Tubing),some forever last moving,could be couple Hundreds year (Earth's) that the nursing perform and relive.If the cycle doesn't completed,there's dead planets hang along,even 'wrong let go',onto our Universe again.My strong concern is Universe or every Universe are existing on a 'live Body'.How much is our Body's in perfection Universe's planets being the same.How the form,call center for each Planet could be done,it is not like a factory's products.But the processing always live.I give myself a smile,it is my gain.But will not last long enough to know how it is real One.

[@carlsagan1377]

You want proof of black holes? Here's some: -Unique X-Ray signatures from Cygnus X-1 (closest BH to earth) and others -Detected stars orbiting a massive but unseen object (likely the black hole Saggitarius A*) at the center of our Galaxy -Detected has clouds orbiting BH at the center of the Milky Way, galaxy NGC 4258, galaxy M87, and others -Detected gravitational waves from two BH mergers -and MANY others. Now, let's talk. As for the Stephen Hawking ordeal, he did not say there were no black holes for real. He joked that there weren't any due to a paradox involving mechanics at the center of a black hole and how they compare to quantum physics. Sort of like me saying, "why doesn't Neptune follow the orbit it's supposed to? It doesn't exist!" even though we know it does from flybys and observations. And he didn't invent them. John Michell first mentioned the idea of a body with gravity so strong that light couldn't escape in 1783. Albert Einstein and Karl Schwarzschild helped solidify the math behind them, and John Wheeler finally coined the term in the sixties. Stephen Hawking continued research on them and how they slowly emit energy. Who's laughing now?
