Standard Model of Elementary Particles

The Standard Model is the collection of theories that describe the smallest experimentally observed particles of matter and the interactions between energy and matter. Three categories of particles form the Standard Model. Matter is composed of quarks and leptons.  The fundamental bosons provide three forces: electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force. Gravit

Quantum levitation and quantum locking

Is levitation possible? Watch this video and make your own conclusion. In a riveting demonstration, Boaz Almog shows how a phenomenon known as quantum locking allows a superconductor disk to float over a magnetic rail -- completely frictionlessly and with zero energy loss. You can see how a super-thin 3-inch disk levitate something 70,000 times its own weight.

Is our Universe the only universe?

Brian Greene is one of the most famous proponent of the superstring theory, the idea that minuscule strands of energy vibrating in a higher dimensional space-time create every particle and force in the universe. In this video Greene is showing how unanswered questions (What caused Big bang?....) have led to new theory that says that our Universe could be just one of many other universes, par

Beauty and truth in physics (Gell-Man)

We bring you short video from popular TED Talks project. Murray Gell-Mann brings visibility to a crucial aspect of our existence that we can't actually see: elemental particles. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics for introducing quarks, one of two fundamental ingredients for all matter in the universe. Murray Gell-Mann is been called "the man with five brains" -- and he has the resume to prove

Can Humans Really Feel Temperature?

Can we really feel the temperauture? Do our senses have ability to compare absolute temperatures of different bodies? Your probable answer would be "Yes", but think again! This video brings you an explanation of principle on measuring the temperatures...

Time - what is it?

Time is fourth dimension, in which events can be ordered from past through present into the future, and also is the measure of events and intervals between them. Trying to understand time, humans (philoshopers and scientist) have developed two viewpoints. One is that time is something what is part of structure of  Universe, and another that time is subjective thing, something what humans us
