Pixel colors are just 3 numbers and you can freely add, subtract, multiply, divide etc. And as for anti-colors, every image editor has such "Invert" function which makes the image "negative".

Very nice - sidenote: The spin statistics theorem does not come from General Relativity. It's a fundamental of quantum field theory which is quantum mechanics respecting SPECIAL relativity.

[@somethang2865]

Also it's a little confusing to say "that's why you can have only two electrons in every energy level" when talking about the quantum number n. The first shell (n=1) indeed only allows for 2 electrons, but the second shell (n=2) allows for 8 electrons, because we have additional quantum numbers (namely angular momentum l = 0,1 and magnetic quantum number m) to be "different". They all respect Pauli's principle though.

It's not a coincidence that quantum chromodynamics uses the mathematics of colour. The physicists who were working this out needed an analogy based on SU(3) symmetry, and the obvious one was the primary colours and their associated anti-colours. But it is remarkable how much of this mathematics can be deduced from some relatively simple observations of the behaviour of atoms.

[@tyruskarmesin5418]

I always picture red green and blue color charges as three 2D vectors at 120 degree angles to each other with a length of one. Negative charges just point in the opposite directions. With that, it makes sense that r + g + b = 0, r = - g - b, etc. Gluons (eg r - b) are vectors of length sqrt 2. It all just works out. Edit: the gluon vector length is sqrt 3, not sqrt 2.

[@jaymethodus3421]

Your second to last statement strikes me. Is that just your internal conception of the gluon vector length? I only ask because I recently came to form my own theory of everything and I pulled an equation out of my own mental ether that I didn’t even know how to apply, and sq rt -2 is the key to it somehow. I ended up discovering Bell’s inequality when transforming and test solving. Quite a few other weird things I found when transforming and testing the equation, but I still can’t pin down how I can apply it to {currently} observable reality.

[@tyruskarmesin5418]

@@jaymethodus3421 Well I can't say how fundamentally accurate this view is, but it maps onto chromodynamics intuitively, which is nice. The gluon vector length naturally arises from adding two vectors 60 degrees apart, but I don't know if there is physical meaning to it. Embarrassingly, I did the math again and realized the length is actually sqrt 3, not 2. As for developing a theory of everything, and pulling an equation from your mental ether, I gotta say that sounds worrying. It is easy to fool yourself, and there is a reason it has taken centuries to develop a true understanding of the world. Having an idea come to you and assuming it is correct is how myths are made. I would also point out that the square root of 2 shows up fairly frequently in a wide range of places.

Awesome video, and a really nice explainer of the strong force. Tough, just to be nitpicky, this doesn't (fully) explain why the nuclei stay bound, only why the nucleons stay bound, since the strong force doesn't provide mediation between different colourless particles (i.e. the nucleons). For that, other bosons that can interact with protons & neutrons are needed, and those are mesons (iirc specifically pi-mesons), i.e. quark-antiquark pairs. With these, the antiquarks can interact with the corresponding quarks in the proton & neutron in annihilation/pair creation reactions, meaning that these mesons can be exchanged between different nucleons. And since mesons have a mass, the range of this "nuclear" force is strongly limited, similar to the weak force (since the W & Z bosons also have mass). Of course, the meson exchange etc happens via the strong force on a fundamental level, but it is a more useful mechanism to look at when looking at the binding of atomic nuclei.

[@HighlyEntropicMind]

You are right. When I make a followup to this topic I'll mention it

[@scotty79]

Isn't it weird how we can call compound particles (like meson or hydrogen atom) a boson and all the maths and rules still apply? Is there anything that indicates that particles like quarks have no internal structure and there's no super-strong force that holds them together?

Some questions and suggestions for follow up videos: 1. Why do Neutrons decay, but Protons don't ? As presented, both should be equally stable. 2. Why are Neutrons within a Nucleus stable ? 3. It's obvious that SU(3) holds three Quarks together, how does this extend to atomic nuclei

isn‘t beta+ decay the decay of a proton into a neutron, a positron and an electroneutrino? (or anti electronieutrino, I don‘t remember.

[@bradfordprice3781]

@@giansieger8687 A proton is a hydrogen atom. A neutron in the same predicament as a hydrogen atom lasts approximately 14 minutes, 38 seconds. The proton stays a hydrogen atom, the neutron decays into a proton (hydrogen atom) and an electron pair. What you are thinking of is nuclear radiation, which is the expulsion of neutrons, protons, and/or electrons from the nucleus of the Uranium, Actinium, and Thorium series. An U+U+D particle and an U+D+D particle as described should be stable in both configurations, or at the very least, the polarized proton should decay, not the neutron. The Strong/Weak force design is an absolute engineering nightmare, there is even an artists rendering of it. They should just recognize that quarks can't be point like and therefore must have spin (award for dumbest logical reason for why particles don't spin), but that would require an entire rewrite of physics and no one is going to get paid to redo the last 300 years of physics. Take a single step out from the nucleus and ask yourself why molecules have so many different types of bonding and every bonding type (Lewis, covalent, ionic, VESPR, etc.) has to have exceptions to the rules (Pauli exclusion, Hund, Aufbau principle etc.) in order to make it work (look at methane and SF5 for example). Take a look at the diagrams from CERN's particle collisions and you will see that every particle is tracing a curved trajectory in total disregard for gravity. Point-like, non-spinning particles can't follow a curve, only particles with size, density and spin can follow a curve. Nonsensical gluons and virtual particles are just sloppy scifi writing and Asimov's Magazine would have sent this story back to the writers with a big, fat, red REJECTED.

@pyropulse Kind of, but I like to think of particles as being condensed packets of wave energy. When the energy is spread out and broad it's more like a wave, but when it's wound up tight and condensed to a tiny region being that it's compressed energy, I like to think of this as being closely related to information theory. Then again, I tend to think more on the lines of Intelligent Design over random chance. I make this claim because no matter how much science we throw at the problem one will NEVER be able to Measure or Quantify Consciousness. Consciousness is kind of "attached" to that which is physical (energy, matter, etc...) yet it is not bounded nor defined by it as Consciousness exists beyond all that is Physical.

[@narfwhals7843]

Very nice video. Love your enthusiasm! But something I'm not quite understanding: The quarks in the nucleons are charged. We could avoid them being in the same quantum state by having the oppositely charged ones have the same spin, couldn't we? And how can the spin state of the atom remain the same after absorbing an atom? Does the spin of the photon get converted to angular momentum of the whole atom?

[@HighlyEntropicMind]

Very good questions. First I'll answer the one about spin Angular momentum is conserved, and it can be conserved in many ways. It can be conserved as the angular momentum of the electron around a nucleus, but it can also be conserved as the intrinsic angular momentum of a particle, which we call spin It's similar to how mass and energy are the same quantity which can be conserved in different ways. Sometimes mass transforms into energy and it looks like the conservation was broken, but it wasn't, because they are the same thing Now, about color charges and spin. If I understand you question, you say that we could have quarks with the same color as long as they had different spins, right? The best advice I can think of right now is to see it for yourself, just like Doubting Thomas. Here's how: Make a table with all combinations of spin for three particles, now give them a new property which we will call pseudo-color, always ensuring two of them have the same color Now use those combinations to make wavefunctions and try to make them antisymmetric Remember: When you switch any two particles you should end up with the same result, except negative, unless it's zero. Spin 1/2 should become spin -1/2, but what should happen to pseudo-color? As you do this try to figure out what rules this pseudo-color quantity follows, and (spoiler) you will find it behaves exactly like color charge

[@narfwhals7843]

@@HighlyEntropicMind Thank you for your reply! Is there a difference in whether the angular momentum goes into the electrons orbital "motion" or a rotation of the atom as a whole? My charge question was about the _electric_ charge of the quarks. The three particles aren't all identical to begin with, only two of them are. And the wave function need only be anti-symmetric under exchange of those two, correct? It seems to me we can have a two +2/3 up quarks with opposite spins and one -1/3 down quark which can have whatever spin it wants without violating the exclusion principle. Why do we need color charge at all?

[@HighlyEntropicMind]

@@narfwhals7843 First, the spin part It is a big difference if the angular momentum goes to the orbit or to the spin. You can literally see this difference with certain molecules. Those that are fluorescent are singlets, but those that are phosphorescent are triplets. There's a lot more to say about that, but you should look it up at your own pace Now, about color charge You look at a proton, you see it has one down-quark, and you think "cool, now we only need to ensure the up-quarks are antisymmetric" but it's not that simple For one, quarks are not locked into their spin state. They can exchange photons between them inside the proton. If the two up-quarks were guaranteed to have opposite spins then perhaps we wouldn't need color charge, but we don't know of any mechanism that can guarantee that And even if they were guaranteed to have opposite spins we would be back at square one: "How does the nucleus of an atom stay together?" We would still need to find yet another mechanism that holds it all together Color charge is a single mechanism that ensures antisymmetry while holding everything together Of course we also made experiments to measure it and make sure it wasn't just nice mathematics Finally there's a hidden wrinkle I didn't mention: up and down quarks are the same particle You see, once upon a time there were only 6 kinds of particles, three quarks and three leptons, but then the SU(2)xU(1) symmetry of nature was broken into separate SU(2) and U(1) symmetries. This made it so that one property called Isospin was really hard to change, and this sort of "split" quarks and leptons into two For that reason up and down quarks are just one particle but with different values of Isospin, and they could exchange W bosons and turn into each other. That would be unusual, but it is possible, so the antisymmetry must also shield us from that possibility, unlikely as it

Very nice video. Maybe I wasn't paying too much attention, but did you ever explain how the strong force interacts between nuclei? Is it that gluons behave between as inside of nucleons, and due to the increased distance the interaction becomes less likely and thus weaker?

[@HighlyEntropicMind]

I did mention it, but perhaps i should have made more emphasis on it At the scale of atomic nuclei protons and neutrons are so close together their strong fields have not cancelled out, and that's how they can attract each other But at distances larger than atomic nuclei the strong fields do cancel out, just like the electric fields of oppositely charged particles This is partially the reason why heavier atoms need more and more neutrons. The strong field from the protons isn't enough to keep them together despite their electric repulsion, so they need extra particles that will add strong attraction without adding electrical repulsion

It’s crazy how gluon mechanics relates to music theory. The triplet state is analogous to the 3 diminished 4 notes diminished 7th chords that when added together form a one state (12 tone chromatic scale.). If C is the root then the diminished 7th is C Eb Gb A and C Gb are anti colors as are Eb A because they are a tritone away. So then you get C anti A and A anti C. Then the quark mechanics relates to the major/minor chords before and after the diminished chord. Cmaj C#dim Dm is major - min major major min - minor because C# and E are part of D major and G and Bb are in Dmin. The other similarity is that each diminished chord is apart of 8 distinct diminished scales each a permutation away. We name the half permutations less than a minor third half whole and whole half diminished because it shifts where the first half step is and the minor third permutation is denoted by a change in root note. The nomenclature goes: C half whole Db whole half Eb half whole E whole half Gb half whole G whole half A half whole Bb whole half and then back to C half whole.

@@Mr.Nichan in jazz, it’s assumed that all chords are 7th chords so it’s Cmaj7 C#o7 and Dmin7, although an experienced pianist will add the 9 11 and/or 13. The ambiguity of the chord symbol reflects the improvisational aspect of comping and soloing. Every diminished chord is simultaneously apart of 4 major keys and 4 minor keys giving the resolution 8 degrees of freedom. Because of this, diminished harmony is both major and minor and can act as a bridge between the 2 sonorities unlike a dominant chord which implies either minor or major. A C#o contains C# E G and Bb. The key signature of D maj is 2#’s: C# and F# so C# dim consists of 2 major notes. The key signature of D min is 1b: Bb si C# dim consists of 2 minor notes. Because of the symmetry, you can permute the chord by a minor third and reach a new minor major relationship without changing the chord quality. From a C#o you can resolve to D F Ab and B which is itself a diminished chord or you can resolve to C A F# or Eb. The initial diminished chord and its 8 potential resolutions actually create a 12 tone chromatic scale so this action is colorless. This is synonymous to the action of the gluon. In fact, diminished chords can even act as tonal centers and are frequently substituted for dominant, major, and minor chords in blues and jazz and can even resolve to each other much like the gluon can interact with itself. This is what I meant by anti colors and min major major min.

Spin statistics theorem:- symmetric wave functions (Bosons, waves) are dual to anti-symmetric wave functions (Fermions, particles) -- quantum duality. Bosons are dual to Fermions -- atomic duality. Energy is dual to mass -- Einstein. Making predictions to track targets, goals & objectives is a syntropic process -- teleological. Teleological physics (syntropy) is dual to non-teleological physics (entropy). Syntropy (prediction) is dual to increasing entropy -- the 4th law of thermodynamics! From a converging, convex (lens) or syntropic perspective everything looks divergent, concave or entropic -- the 2nd law of thermodynamics. All observers have a syntropic perspective according to the 2nd law or thermodynamics. My syntropy is your entropy and your syntropy is my entropy -- duality. Duality (energy) creates reality. "Always two there are" -- Yoda. Spin up is dual to spin down, particles are dual to anti-particles -- the Dirac equation.

All gluons correspond to human vision, not just the middle ones. We can make a hexagon like the one we made with gluons but for human vision. In the center is has black and white, and in the corners it has red, blue, green, cyan, magenta and yellow

​@@hyperduality2838 If you think this idea is worth exploring my advice is to work really hard to express it formally in a mathematical framework, so that other scientists can clearly understand what you mean. Also, being purely descriptive is a good start, but if your ideas manage to make testable predictions that's amazing

@@HighlyEntropicMind Cheers for the video. Making predictions to track targets, goals and objectives is a syntropic process -- teleological. There is a dual process to that of increasing entropy. Main stream physics has big problems with teleology and hence syntropy! Teleophilia is dual to teleophobia. Physics is currently dominated by teleophobic dogmas! Physicists make predictions all the time hence they are using syntropy, to deny syntropy is not a rational response -- physicists do not like new laws based upon teleology! The conservation of duality (energy) will be known as the 5th law of thermodynamics! Electro is dual to magnetic -- Maxwell's equations, electro-magnetic energy or pure energy is dual. Positive curvature is dual to negative curvature -- Gauss, Riemann geometry. Curvature or gravitation is dual -- the force of gravity is dual. Negative curvature = dark energy or hyperbolic space. Universal hyperbolic geometry:- kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6ezaYmqrs2tjtU You should watch them all. "Perpendicularity in hyperbolic geometry is measured in terms of duality". Points are dual to lines -- the principle of duality in geometry. Gravitation is equivalent or dual (isomorphic) to acceleration -- Einstein's happiest thought, the principle of equivalence (duality). Fear is dual to anger, anger is dual to hate, hate is dual to suffering -- the Yoda dualities. Positive (lightside) is dual to negative (darkside).

Wow, thank you! Now I understand quantum chromodynamics much better! I've been reading a lot but couldn't grasp the connection, but your video is so helpful! Great job, keep doing this 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
