Public Lecture—Profiling the Invisible: Quantum Mechanics and the Unseen Universe
Μεταφορτώθηκε στις 14 Ιαν 2011
Lecture Date: Tuesday, February 22,
2005. When we explore Nature at distances much smaller than the size of
an atom, we find new and mysterious physical principles. At such small
sizes, particles are governed by "quantum theory". Quantum theory tells
us that some aspects of particle motion cannot be known as a matter of
principle. This is a challenge to those of us who would like to do
experiments to understand how these particles behave. Fortunately,
quantum theory, for all its uncertainty, has its own logic. It predicts
patterns in the subatomic world that hold definite information and can
be measured to high precision. In this lecture, I will explain how we
use these patterns in experiments with high energy particles to learn
about the nature of the subnuclear forces and about the structure of the
universe. Lecturer: Michael Peskin, SLAC National Accelerator
Laboratory.
