What is the universe really made of? What is truly fundamental in the reality that we perceive? This video is about QFT: Quantum field theory – simplified.
Everything that you see is thought to be made of up of particles. This is what most people are taught in science class. The only problem is it is not true. And physicists have known this for decades. Particles are really not fundamental. The best theory in physics tells us that there really are no particles at all, only fields. Particles are merely waves in the field.
Fields are fluid-like substances that can be perturbed, vibrate, and experience excitations. What exactly are fields? Mathematically a field something that takes a value at every point in space. They are not really made of anything other than that from a strictly physicist’s point of view. If you have a fireplace in a room, the temperature at every point in that room would have a value. This would be a field of temperature – this is analogous to the quantum fields.
The vacuum of space is alive with these fields. The Heisenberg uncertainty principle means that a quantum field cannot sit still. Instead, They are vibrating and changing their value over time. All you can see is really only the excitations of 4 of the fields – Electromagnetic, electron, up quark, and down quark fields. But there are more. The total number of fields is 17, including the Higgs field. Space-time itself is thought to be a field, but so far has not been able to be incorporated in quantum field theory. It would be the 18th field.
One way to visualize the fields is to Imagine the volume of the universe being filled with about 17 different kinds of differently colored fluids instead of water.
Fields eliminate is the idea of action at a distance. In Newtonian gravity, the sun affects the earth which is 120 million kilometers away without touching it. Even Newton thought this was absurd. Einstein’s theory of general relativity eliminated this idea of action at a distance by replacing space with space-time, which is a field that pervades all of reality. In order for a force to propagate over distances, it has to affect its field locally, then propagate from the local point to the distant point, then affect the field locally at the distant point.
Fields can also explain how particles can be created and destroyed. When a Neutron decays to a Proton, an electron, and an antineutrino, it does this by giving its vibrations or energy away to the quarks fields of the Proton, electron field and antineutrino fields.
When you call someone on your cell phone, you are putting excitations in a field and affecting the electronics within the cell phone of the person you are calling. This is field excitations in practice. #QFT
#quantumfieldtheory
But quantum mechanics is about discreet things yet fields are continuous. The combining of field theory with quantum mechanics is called quantum field theory or QFT. This means the excitations of fields happen only in chunks of energy. The energy of the wave is determined by the mass of the particle. The mass is just the energy needed to vibrate its field. The field will simply not accept energies below a certain threshold.
Once you tap the field hard enough, however, a particle is created. This discrete unit of energy that the field can accept is what we call the rest mass energy of particles in a field. So for example, one electron is created when the electron field is excited by 0.511 MeV (megaelectron volts) which is the mass of one electron. If you put in 1.1 MeV, then two electrons get created, and so on.
Fields are related to the probability waves of quantum mechanics and the Schrodinger equation by their shape. The shape of the electric field is the wavefunction of electrons, for example.
The wave function is what really exists. A “particle” is created when you measure the electron wave. This is when the wave function has collapsed into a discrete value. This can be predicted by the Schordinger equation. A particle has a location, but a field is spread out everywhere.
Who discovered fields? Michael Faraday came up with the idea and actually used the word “field” in his notebook in 1845.
Are fields a real thing, or are they just mathematical constructs? Most physicists believe them to be physical reality.
Are these fields fundamental? I think it’s fundamental in the sense that it is the limit of our understanding. It could very well be that fields are just an approximation of a deeper level of reality.

Oh no feels like we were programmed
This is absolutely mindblowing!
This is good yes. but the participation of God the creator is out… there is no God involve here. I still appreciate Walter Russell's theory.
You found 0 & 1 of God Programming Code in this simulation lol
Excellent job again from Arvin… best explanation on this topic seen -Doesn't hurt that these videos also feature some clips of very gorgeous women 🙂
Yeah!, all fields. First time (ever) I see and hear a v well explained..actually a super explanation on the subatomic reality as far as science understand it. And love you make the point we don't know beyond this knowledge..I am hooked to this channel. Tremendous clarity of thought and description, Muchas gracias amigo !.
Stuff……………Sorry, couldn't resist!…..
Wonderful clarity, thank you. Which makes humans consist of one wave not mentioned “ Hubris”
"If you take a strong metal box" the box is wood.
QFT makes me think of the late John Conway's Game of Life. If you're watching the simulation unfold, you might observe something shaped like a space ship that is moving across the screen. But if you zoom in closer, you'll see that the space ship is made of dots. The space ship is not fundamental.
So then you might think the dots are fundamental. But sometimes, two space ships interact with each other, and for a brief period of time, the some of the dots that constitute the space ships disappear. At the same time, some dots seem to appear and then disappear outside of the space ship. How were the dots created and destroyed like that, if they are fundamental?
The dots are not dots. The domain of the game is a grid, and every point on that grid has a value of 0 or 1. These values are fundamental. And by the rules of the game, every point on that grid processes its local universe (only the points that are directly adjacent to it) and follows some fundamental rules to determine what its value is. Not just the 1's. Every point in the grid is a mini universe performing a set of calculations, oblivious to what's happening two pixels to the right. The ripples aren't the only things propagating outward. The stillness propagates as well, all the time. And the ripples do not only propagate outward from their origin. From one instant to the next, every point of that domain is propagating outward in all directions.
We can't measure the exact position of the space ship because it has no exact position. It occupies many "dots". Also, we see that the space ship always moves at a constant speed. If we rotate or flip the space ship, it will go in the opposite direction. It's moving, not because it was set in motion by some force, but because it is in its nature to move. Much like light.
These space ships are pretty stable, persisting on the grid unless something destroys them. It's so stable, it can be observed, and a lot can be learned about it. But if you've every played this game, you know that most of the shapes you try to draw will not persist on the board. Just like the "noise" we saw briefly when the space ships interacted with each other. This noise is analogous to virtual particles.
It's not a perfect analogy, but I think it's helpful. We're able to observe the game from the outside. We can see what all of the values are without changing any of those values. In real life, that's impossible. Because we're on the same grid as the dots and shapes we're trying to observe, and we can't do that from a distance. We have to perform some local interaction on the thing we want to observe, and interpret results based on a limited set of information that comes back to us. For very small things, we can't do this interaction without changing the thing we're observing.
Great video, too many ads.
So by this theory, telekinesis, telepathy and all that would be theoretically possible since one could somehow send ripples into the field and affect an object or other person's field (much like cellphones does)? 😳
I have say this video is one of the best depictions of "reality" I have ever seen… Congrats Ash! I personally believe that something fundamental is missing in all the theories of physics, but I'm doubtful dark matter, per say, will ever be found. I have to agree with Anton Zelinger who thinks that "dark matter, and dark energy, begin to smell like ether"… How do you like that, Ash? 😉

Incredibly well explained and produced
Awareness is known by awareness alone.
Does quantum field theory explain the double slit experiment and the entanglement?
Hello,
I'm really loving your video's, in this one however, could it be that in the visualisation of the diffrent types of fields in the universe, where it is visualised as a "painting" that changes colors in the amount of presence of a specific field, I assume that is the visualisation of the effects that exchange between these fields?
Would i be correct to think that All these fields are everywhere at the same time, not nescesarily in the same density, layered ontop each other in an immeasurable and invisible way(…); visualising this would result in a mixture of all the "colors" of these fields resulting in a single color sheet?
What's the difference between quantum fields and ether, really?
Why can't, for example, the up and down quark not just be crests and troughs of the same field? Actually, upon contemplation, they have probably measured the quark field strengths in particle accelerators.
Then also shouldn't one, in theory – given the knowledge to do so, be able to generate some particle like electrons this way through direct stimulation/manipulation of the field?
Also I'd like to see what comes out if the entire metric system is adjusted so that, for instance, the field strength for an electron is 1eV. Just for novelty sake.
You described this so elegantly it actually touched me
so if the atoms in my body are just waves then if i move a foot to the left am i still made up of the same particle wave fluctuations?
What a marvellous exposition. Thank you!
So the entirety of everything is just super excited? That's kinda cool. I create stuff too when I'm super excited. Lol
Bacardi 151 must be an excitement in the Rumsfield.
Fields maybe 18, but instead of making particles as field think of its properties as field. Perhaps: 1) Mass, 2)Cohesion, 3) Movement, 4)Attraction/repulsion etc
Quantum consciousness it interwoven with Ur free will. .
Is it true that quantum field theory is extremely accurate and it matches with experiments?
Best QFT video I've seen. Much appreciated!
Finally a Particle physicist I agree with. Get a copy of my book THE TRUTH The Illumination of Conscience by Jeffrey Michael Simoneaux
This is junk science, the universe is electric. Nature does not need these exotic theories, she is elegant and simple. The real science is in electricity, The Thunderbolts Project and The Safire Probe have been doing ground breaking research in this area for years.
Heisenberg is also a good meth chef
We have our own Theory!
I'am a member from the informations-energetik club.The leader is Reinhard Köcher.
Everything is in german except the button Quadrantum.
Our theory suggest that we nee a complementary size to Energy which is information.
So what we call a ponderable mass is in reality a quadropole of Information/Energy and Time/Space
Where the quantities information and time are of primary nature.
The complementary quantity to the information is the energy. the information is the effect (cause), while the energy describes the effect itself. with time and space it is so, that the time body produces the space. all these things are already in the ingenious invention of Euler.
From the above 4 quantities, the interaction of the 4 quantities results in what we call ponderable mass. Maybe we can find someone to translate this from the USA. Our theory can also explain the displacement and heavy/inert mass.
Space is basically made up of real space, hypercomplex space, imaginary space, and absolute space (God or whatever you want to call it). hypercomplex space is described by quaternions, octonions, and sedenions. imaginary space is made up of imaginary units only. in absolute space, there is no appearance at all.
The Buddhists call this infinite abundance and emptiness at the same time.
I would be happy if some of you would read through our theories, the whole thing has to be translated.
Greetings from Germany

amazing.first time understood it so well.thank you.
Query: The fireplace example is really helpful but….the specific field requires the fireplace itself, namely a source of energy to maintain the field. Which is tha constant source of energy that produces and sustains the fields of the QFT ?
