World Science Festival
Proposed a century ago to better explain the mind-bending behavior of the smallest constituents of the universe, quantum theory has implications far beyond the atom. This rich set of laws has applications both practical and extraordinary — from the technology that has revolutionized modern life to the possibility of parallel worlds.
Our audience joined Alan Alda as he accompanied Brian Greene, Nobel Laureate William Phillips and other leading thinkers at the vanguard of quantum research on an accessible multimedia exploration of the astounding weirdness of the quantum world.
This program is part of the Big Ideas Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.
The World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.

The World Science Festival strives to cultivate a general public that's informed and awed by science. Thanks to your contributions, we can continue to share the wonder of scientific discoveries with the world.
Im only 37mins into this and all i keep asking myself is, “why is noone talking about the weight comparison of objects being fired by the gun, something as heavy as a bullet is obviously going to hold a tighter line than an object much smaller & lighter, why not shoot feather fragments out of the gun & see where the hell they go & what patterns they make?”
Just a normal dude here btw, i dont claim to be a genius. Lol!
EDIT: Not only the weight, but the movement of the particles, the different directions of spin, thee affect the 2 holes have on them being theyre bouncing and spinning off thee inside of them and knocking into each other, part of me feels this would make the waves obsolete. The waves are there because the scientist provided an outlet for waves to be created. ?????????????👽??????????
So, dumb … 'in some sense the probability does not spread out' … so incredibly dumb and fake. Don't believe this shit.
Ok
The upset freezer spectroscopically approve because example relatedly reject apropos a waggish hockey. thinkable, innocent stopwatch
We're in the matrix 😎 death we disconnect transcend to real reality. 😎
And in music, sound waves can come together and produce something better than you expected 🕵
The Waves of the Higgs Boson is what created this universe, and created us as well. When i look at you i see me . my equations are .010. The first point is the start of the universe, the zero is inflation, one is us, then we have probability witch is zero then we come to the last point which is the end of that universe, but it don't end there it continues to form a new universe. Science tried to explain it as Multiverse.
I fell asleep..seemed to be the same understanding. Not sure but maybe I am sure and I was just resting my eyes..I'll go ask Eve..she knew what Adam..did.
Mr. Brian. Is the certain shape of electron which creates probabilities. Or it is round?
Perhaps it’s more of a spiral than a wave.
Looking at a spiral from the edge, you still get the troughs and peaks, but not just up and down, but from all angles looking at 90 degrees from line of travel.
Electromagnetic Force is the catalyst of shape and movement. Perhaps one day we will know this Energy comes from God…
Roll of the dice is still manipulated by an intelligence…
This video might be too old, but I have a question, have they tried the experiment with molecules, for example, hydrogen, since it has a nucleus I think the result would be different and not as unpredictable as the electron by itself.
Since the higgs boson particle is absent in the electron but most probably present in the nucleus, of molecules, creating consistency…. our bodies don't act as the electron in the experiment because we are made of molecules with lots of nucleuses and therefore plenty of higgs boson particles that keeps us stable….or what would you think? 🙂
Show me the actuall experiment where you shoot electrons. This is science ? Looks like religion.
He asked a question and I answered "Its a wave!" And I was correct. I feel so smart!
Perhaps its the way the experiment is conducted that gives the illisuion of a right answer?
So at 38:05 Newtons predictions would be redundant with an infinite number of let's say, throws to predict where the ball would land. Produce an infinite equation of Newtons law and there would be no difference. They are literally debating the same beliefs math aside. Perhaps their separate understanding of reality with their heightened intellects differ greatly? We are far too young of a species to truly understand what we would like. I want us to dig deeper and I have faith we will.
What if we didn't view electrons separately? Perhaps they exist as one but separate at the same time. Is it possible for it/them to exist at all times and in all places simultaneously? There are no gaps in reality that you fall through. So every possibility is potentially a probability? And perception is simply us selecting which probability outcome suits our current understanding of this reality?
Understanding this reality we lives in the world of probability
Funny how I just read yesterday that they(@MIT? I think) built that qubit computer; And only 3 yrs later!!!
Alan Alda made a perfect moderator for this..
There is something wrong with quantum mechanics and I won’t except an incomplete picture

The double split experiment proves that it’s the only way for the world we live in. It couldn’t be a mathematical machine.. i
It’s genius. The universe is alive
I think the reason we can’t place a particle in one place or time is because the world ( reality) has to be able to ( change) in order to keep the speed of light constant.
We ALL are like these particles living in a quantum probability. Every time you move , breathe, vibrate .. everything
Is god the single slit and we are the mess it causes at the end in the Concentrated center
