Lecture 6 | New Revolutions in Particle Physics: Basic Concepts

Thursday, August 26th, 2010


(November 9, 2009) Leonard Susskind gives the sixth lecture of a three-quarter sequence of courses that will explore the new revolutions in particle physics. In this lecture he continues on the subject of quantum field theory, including, the diary equation and Higgs Particles. Leonard Susskind, Felix Bloch Professor of Physics, received a PhD from Cornell University and has taught at Stanford since 1979. He has won both the Pregel Award from the New York Academy of Science and the JJ Sakurai Prize in theoretical particle physics. He is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences.

Lecture 3 | New Revolutions in Particle Physics: Standard Model

Friday, August 20th, 2010


(January 25, 2010) Leonard Susskind, discusses the rotation of space. This course is a continuation of the Fall quarter on particle physics. The material will focus on the Standard Model of particle physics, especially quantum chromodynamics (the theory of quarks) and the electroweak theory based on the existence of the Higgs boson. We will also explore the inadequacies of the Standard Model and why theorists are led to go beyond it. This course was originally presented in Stanford’s Continuing Studies program.

The Physics of Anti-Gravity

Thursday, August 12th, 2010


Richard Feynman once said “It doesn’t matter how smart you are, or how brilliant your theory is. If it doesn’t agree with experiment, it’s WRONG!” If you happen to go by a Barnes and Noble’s this month, stop in and pick up a copy of the July Issue of Infinite Energy Magazine and look for Frank Znidarsic’s Article on the Duality of Matter and Waves. I’d really like to see if this theory is wrong, but I don’t think it is. At least until someone can show me how and why it fails. So far it’s only given right answers. You get the Compton wave of the electron, the radii and intensities of spectral emissions, and it explains why everything looked so confusing through the only lenses which 1930s science permitted. The mathematical achievements of the past century are astounding in retrospect to such a simplified theory of quantum mechanics. Yet the math gives us real answers, and tells us these abstract hyperdimensional modelings was just the speed of light refracting into the electron shell which behaves like a Bose Condensate. The first Bose Condensate wasn’t created until 2003, the great scientists never performed experiments with large diameter rotating superconductors, so how could they possibly have known or seen this???

Lecture 9 | New Revolutions in Particle Physics: Standard Model

Saturday, July 31st, 2010


(March 30, 2009) Leonard Susskind explains how the Higgs phenomenon interacts masses of quarks and leptons. This course is a continuation of the Fall quarter on particle physics. The material will focus on the Standard Model of particle physics, especially quantum chromodynamics (the theory of quarks) and the electroweak theory based on the existence of the Higgs boson. We will also explore the inadequacies of the Standard Model and why theorists are led to go beyond it. This course was originally presented in Stanford’s Continuing Studies program.
