"Electricity was just coming in at the turn of the century" "And people are fascinated by telegraph wires" "And there's one book by Bernstein says imagine yourself racing alongside a telegraph signal inside a wire" "That's what we think the historically speaking Einstein got his earth-shattering idea, from a children's book" "When Einstein was a teenager, he was inspired by his memory of a children's book" "To imagine what will happen if you were writing the beam of light" "And began thinking about light, time and space" "He realized that Newton's theory that space and time were fixed in absolute, did not applied to approach the beat of light" "From this insight, he formulated what he called the special theory of relativity" "In Newton's world, space and time were always separated," "If it's ten o'clock on the earth, it's ten o'clock on Venus, it's ten o'clock on Jupiter, it's ten o'clock around the universe" "Time was like an arrow, once you fire it, it never came back, never deviated" "Einstein comes along and says not so fast" "Time is like a river, a river that meanders around the stars and speeds up and slows down" "Of course the space and time can changed, that changes everything" "Everything we know about atoms, everything we know about our bodies and universe changes once time and space also change" "Einstein demonstrated his theory with what he called thought experiments" "The most famous thought experiment is the twin paradox." "You get two twins on the earth, you put one on the rocket ship, sent that person off and" "Of course that person accelerated near the speed of light and times slows down" "So, when the two people come together, the twin in the rocket ship is younger than the twin on the earth" "Time beats at different rates throughout the universe" " Depending on what" " Depending on your velocity" "The faster you move the slower time beats" "Now we have in a very small way done the experiment with orbiting astronaut right" "Right, if you have astronaut sent into outer space and time beats slower on the space station time beats slower" "That affects all satellites." "Look at the GPS satellites" "You realize that it is so accurate you can locate your position into within about 20 feet on the planet earth" " Until you are at the street round - that's right," "So the satellite going around the earth is going very fast, eighteen thousand miles per hour" "Therefore you have to include the relativistic effects" "Now if the two clocks are out of the synchronization, if the clock in outer space run slower than the clock on the earth" "The GPS system is totally out of luck a few months after publishing his special theory of relativity, Einstein followed it up with our next great discovery" "The most famous equation ever written" "E equal mc square may be the most famous equation known" "Where did it come from" "Einstein use relativity to show that as you approach light speed bizarre it distortion displace" "Time beats slower, space contracts and you get heavier" "The faster you move the heavier you get" "Now think about that, the energy of motion has turned into making you heavier." "M came from velocity energy, here is how he did it." "He imagined a flashlight, a flashlight shooting a light beam exactly how much the energy came out of the flashlight, but the flashlight he showed weightless the flashlight weights less by meeting a beam of light therefore the e of light came from the m of the flashlight" "And the ratio is c square." "That's how it's done" "The equation also hinted that enormous amount of energy contain even a small quantity of matter" "Suppose I throw a baseball, you cash the fast" "As throw more energy, it's got" "And what about when it's stand still."

"Radium has magical property of glowing in the dark" "Energy was coming out of nothing; particles would coming out of nothing" "That violated the conservation of energy." "Energy was coming from nowhere around nineteen hundred, people thought that energy was continued and that you could cut electricity magnetism, you can cut to final final final pieces without end" " And why did he say that" " Because if you soon that the light come into this package, then you could explain all the different kinds of phenomena that we were seeing" "That the fundamental level of the atom, the level of that was a quantum of effect that the energy was occurring in package" "This also meant by the way that matter has wavelike property" " And this is what we call quantum mechanics." " That's right" "That's not the way the universe was suppose because constructed" "The atom was like a bowling ball, how could a bowling ball have wavelike properties" "While in 1925, Erwin Schrodinger, an Austral physicist finally writes down the wave equation governing the electron" "This is one of the greatest achievements of the human intellect, all of the son we can now peer into the atom self" "So atoms are waves." "Atoms are particles but there is uncertain association with them, right" "That's right, then a few years later, Marx Bohr, college of Albert Einstein made a faithful step" "The question was if a matter is a wave, then what is waving" "Marx Bohr said what's waving is the probability of locating it at any given point" "We sometimes give our graduate students the problem" "Calculate the probability that you will dissolve and you will rematerialize on the other side of the break wall" "Now, that's absurd."

"That's what we called electronics" "All the modern marvels of electronic age and laser beams and microchips ultimately come down to the fact" "That electrons you don't know where they are." "They can be two places at the same time" "How can that be two places at the same time Because you don't know where objects really are" "This cause so much problem that even Einstein finally broke with the quantum theory" "And he said I can't believe the god plays dice with the universe" "With all this weirdness and built in uncertainty, quantum theory remains the best model of the subatomic world we have" "The ancient asked a fundamental question what is the university made of" "They thought it was earth, air, fire, water" "But as the world is made up of what is light You can't put it in a box, you cant' shake it, you can't touch it, it's ephemeral yet it's everywhere light is everywhere and nowhere." "Everyone experience it in euphoric life" "But the question is, what is it" "And that's dog physic for thousands of years" "Dog physics." "Is it make you data or other reason you come to this office" "That's right." "That's why some of the greatest mind is going back to Isaac Newton made the first definitive study on the nature of light." "Newton for example took white light from the sun shot through a prism and showed that all the colors of the rainbow would come out of white light" "Showing that white light is really a composite, a sum of red, orange, yellow, blue light" " Did he also recombine it" " That's right; he also showed that red orange yellow, the violet could be recombined to create white light." "So Newton thought that light was in some sense particulate little tiny corpuscle that he called it made up the stream called light" "So we have the first theory of light, the fact that light is based out of particles" "But however it was alternative theory, a rival theory to Newton's theory that set that light was a wave" "And it was Thomas Young who made years ago had showed that white light had wavelike properties" "I think of surfing for example." "Every surfer know he could ride an ocean wave" "But if the second ocean wave comes at you from another angel, the two waves interfered, giving you an interference pattern" "And then of course if you are not careful you wipe out." "Well Young showed this with light." "He was able to get light shining with small pinhole" "Get another pinhole of light and has these two waves collide with each other, and there was a beautiful interference pattern" "So, we now have two rival theories of light" "The Newton's corpuscular particular theory of light and young's and other's wavelike theory of light" "Now, Einstein took the next step" "When Einstein said, and this is the genius of Einstein, he said perhaps both are right" "Perhaps Newton shows that has particle properties and Young showed that light has wavelike properties and two are different manifestations of the same thing" "Thinking of you are blind and looking at an elephant, you touch the trunk you think the elephant is a snake" "You touch the legs, you think the elephant is a tree, and yet elephant is a merger of all these qualities" "So Einstein introduced the concept of duality, particle and wavelike duality" "What we are looking at" "Here we are looking at a helium-neon gas laser, it meets a miliwatt of energy" "And it demonstrate that light has both particulate and wavelike nature" "Look at this, it does look like light consists of particles" "It's a collimate beam, very very coherent, meaning all the waves are vibrating in unison." " If there were waves," " Yes." "If there were waves" "Now it goes to this double slip and as it goes to the slip it started to interfered with itself" "Waves start to crisscross, and the wave is created this pattern" "So as we see here the wave start to disperse" "Now if waves were nothing but photons, individual particles, this would simple a red dot" "But it is not red dot, it looks like a waved pattern" "That demonstrate one experiment both the particle and wavelike nature of light, the duality of light" "Without them, we may be as well live in the dark ages" "The atom, so small it is hard to imagine" "Finding out what an atom was made of led to our next great discovery" "To get the story, I went to Fermi lab outside Chicago in met with physicist John Womersley" "Even a hundred years ago, people knew how big the atom was, and they thought electrons and protons would be spread pretty much uniformerly throughout the atom" "And they called this plum pudding model" "Because they thought the electrons like raisins of a fruit cake spread throughout the inside of the fruit cake" "In the early nineteen hundreds, physicist earnest Rutherford conducted an experiment to further explore the structure of the atom" "He shot radioactive alpha particles at a sheet of gold foil" "And he wanted to see what happen when the alpha particle hit the gold, he didn't expect very much what happening" "For most the alpha particles recarried straight on through without being deflected, without being bent through any large angle" " Well what happened" " He found something completely different" "And had be altered shell bounce back to you" "Somebody alpha particle bounce straight back of the gold foil" "So the only way this could happen is as if the inside the atom is a very small dense concentration of matters" "Not spread out like slum pudding" "Rutherford called this small dense concentration the nucleus" "What we doing here at Fermi lab is extend that experiment" "We take a beam of protons collide with a beam of antiprotons to see what the proton is made of" "Thanks to Rutherford's discovery, scientists now knew that the structure of the atom includedprotons, electrons and a nucleus" "But was up to James Chadwick, a student of Rutherford's to complete the picture with the discovery of the neutron" "What is that standing now inside the D0 detective" "Which is one of the particle detective in Fermi lab collider" "That detect whether proton and antiprotons eventually circulate" "Come to collision few feet to your right and all the instrumentation around are record we use to detect the result of those collisions" "This is kind of back to the history of neutron" "Chadwick was able to carry out the experiment."
