Elementary particles. If we take a person and a chair and break them down into their components, we find adams and within them electrons. Clarks include ones. Without elementary particles, there would be no stable atoms. Everything would fall apart. They literally hold the world together. Elementary particles are not only the basic components of all matter. Some can even penetrate any form of matter. The book is home to daisy, the german electron synchrotron, one of the Worlds Largest fundamental Physics Research centers. More than 2000 scientists from over 40 countries work here, the particle, physicists, because challenge funding bag that takes us into the enormous tunnel system below the daisy grounds. Funding becca is one of the worlds most renowned particle physicists, a professor at the university of humble and lead scientist at daisy. As only some parts of the tunnel are still being used for experiments. Our team is allowed to film there. If im, if we going on the grounds to the hair acceleration we, its the largest accelerate to the gym and he has a have a bill im getting in touch anyone entering the tunnel needs an oxygen unit for safety and has to report in by telephone system from the christy and spun and vega. Hello, im entering the here a tunnel and here a west going towards here. A news im not behind the door is the heart of particle physics at daisy. The hair, a tunnel hair stands for head drawn electron ring accelerator. The you guys so long, definitely have found a problem with something im some and then the camera is so long. You need a bike to get from one experiment to another. Its fine. And you can see that it isnt actually a ring. You can get me riding through a straight section. Now. The electrons and protons are accelerated through the strait sections. Then the, the tunnel slowly starts to curve here. Deposit cool beans onto accelerated in the section, just redirected here. The proton bane travels in the launch of a vacuum tube and the electron beam goes through the lowest storage ring in the opposite direction. And if we were to try so much, much the lead, eventually come out of the cook and see how this electron too much is with the price onto the electrons. A show to the protons in the next, a tech to the port on control center for the protons burst and released new elementary particles. What physics is aiming for with these particle collisions is the reconstruction of the beginning of space and time. The reconstruction of the big bank, our universe emerged from a huge explosion, some 13800000000 years ago. Particle physics has not yet succeeded in pinpointing the actual moment. But it can look back to a millions of a 1000000000 of a 2nd after the big bang. The debate about whether indivisible particles could exist goes back to the ancient greeks. Some 2500 years ago. The greek philosopher, democritus, among others, called them adams from the ancient greek to most meaning, indivisible. The debate continued until 1911, when it was 1st experimentally proven that adams themselves are indeed divisible. Adams consist of electronics, neutrons, and protons. The term elementary particles 1st appeared in the 19 thirties and the 2nd half of the 20th century teams from the us. And daisy and humboldt, among others, were finally able to demonstrate that protons and neutrons are also divisible and consist of corks and blue ones. The standard model of particle physics lists for groups of known elementary particles. The core group consists of 6 particles in total. The left tons, including electrons and move on, also comprises 6 particles the. The group of gauge bows on the forced particles currently includes 4 types, including blue ones and photons. Finally, there are the scalar bones. So far physics nose have only one elementary particle in this group. The higgs both on detected in 2012. It is the most recent addition to the particle family, the berlin, the, the noise museum. We meet the nina level, the curator of egyptian and oriental pyar, right. The she takes us to the pirates collection. Some of the oriental and ancient egyptian manuscripts on display. Here were originally rolled up or folded like these amulets. So far theyve had to be painstakingly unrolled and unfolded by him. The popularity isnt the wonderful guy right or very fragile. When we want to open a piece for pirates conservator decides if its possible, or if a package like this one, for example, will follow the parts. Interesting 1000 pieces. Of course you dont want us out just interest interest me some 60000 pi ryan. The other manuscripts are stored in excavation boxes from 19 o 7 back then huge quantities of such artifacts were found during excavations on the la funding island and the nile river with conservators. So fee, elizabeth, but i tell needs that latha is looking for a pi right, whose contents might be deciphered by means of particle physics without unfolding or damaging them. Using a handheld x ray machine develops jointly with businesses, tons, eva, hod mancha. They have found a pirates packet that could have been printed with iron containing ink, and have decided to scan the document with even more powerful x rays. This is done at the Heading Home Center for materials and energy in berlins funds. A district toby is specializes in time of graphic imaging of a wide range of materials for the pirates pack it from the Egyptian Museum draws on the Pioneering Research of a well known german physicist the vill him corner the homepage and discover x rays at the end of the 19th century, shortly after he succeeded in capturing the 1st images, revolutionizing medical diagnostics and earning him the nobel prize in physics. For the 1st time, it was possible to visualize the bone structure of a living being without surgical intervention the, the principal is relatively simple. X rays are produced by the rapid acceleration of electronics that is, elementary particles the, the dense or the material. The less radiation can penetrate its very dense material like bone appears. White in the x ray fluids and soft tissue like fat or muscle, are less dense, and so appear great. The organs containing large amounts of air, like the lungs allowed the majority of the rays through and appear black in the image of the well x rays can be harmful to living beings. They have long been a proven tool for non Destructive Testing and materials. Research can 5 and please give us 5 mentioned toys plus testing done the x rays pulse through this fragment and then hit the detect team. Can we take a whole series of images . Not just one of the 90 guns. We rotate the sample once 3360 degrees with a quote, a projection of very many, very different angles. They ask you this way that we can generate a 3 d reconstruction of the volume with us. Yeah. And thats why the other one is the scan only takes a few minutes and delivers numerous 3 dimensional x ray images of the pirates packet. But the writing inside can still not be read. This is where scientists from the to the institute in berlin step in the mathematician, daniel about him and his team have developed software that can virtually own the full, the pirates packet. He traces the individual layers in the 3 d model with the mouse. The computer programs in virtually assembles the many x ray images into a flat surface. The structure of the plan fibers is clearly visible. Finally, the image data from the x ray image is transferred to the virtually on the folded pirates and distinct characters appear on the screen. You can see the pirates fibers really well up to the left is versed in 15 oriental scripts and languages from different heroes, including higher radek or coptic aromatic and arabic. Because somebody else model that you should have a few was far from gets and an appeal was the 1st time in the history of tyras research. And we can read up a pirates vert. So its vicky sometimes having to physically open it outside of the heat. This is really sensational. This piece here is a complex texas. Here is a p which is the mass to an article, and then this symbol now not freak as a cop there. I called this as im not size and joe enjoy on project shows put joy in to me. Oh lord, jesus christ as the quotes from this is the short form for Lord Jesus Christ and early christianity out of my hand. A wonderful example of the fact that early christianity and personal piety existed on elephant teams, perhaps as early as the 4th century when the game had been remembered. This has to be folded, emulate that someone would have carried with them the monthly like 5 digits are. Thanks to physics and i t, some aspects of christianitys early history can now be rewritten. The geneva, the European Organization for Nuclear Research for cern is the Worlds LargestResearch Center in the field of particle physics. Here at the swiss border with france almost 20000 scientists from all over the world have been researching the properties of elementary particles since 1954 we made german particle businesses because challenge funding back again. Its r and p is regularly in switzerland to monitor experiments. Yes, this is an overview of the launch hadron collider. We here on the sun side and then at the certain score is the large hadron collider. The Worlds Largest particle accelerator. The ring shaped tunnel is almost 100 meters below ground. Alice think i can just enough flash advice. I stuff on my side of the street as you know really starts with the buffalo of hydrogen. When its hydrogen consists of one pro tillman, one electron. Its as soon as the electron is extracted and then the proton goes into a Linear Accelerator where its energy is increased. So half the speed of light finally got in and in spite fob is finding out that you must and then look in the pro tonys been said. 33 more. Pre exhilarates is a sequel finally being directed into the large hadron collider. And thats where its accelerated to near lights. They done alphabetically, caught in that the bush line is to have a fuss. Please explain this type in the collider. Protons are accelerated in opposite directions and shot at each other at 4 points in the ring. At almost the speed of light with 4 huge detectors measured the collisions i know these are the ductwork and one of these cool to see a mess detector is located directly opposite this inside and sat on the other side of the ring. I did as i think thats where were going now back in may, its c m s stands for compact one solenoid. And it is one of the most exciting physics experiments of our time. Here in the c, a mass control room, the experiments collisions are coordinated and monitored other physicists from all over the world are connected in real time, including a Scientific Team from daisy and home board. I dont have blog at all. Some 4000 researchers from 55 Countries Worldwide are involved in the c, a mass experiment. Seamless experiment is at the large hadron collider. And its an experiment to look at the fundamental Building Blocks of matter, and understanding the fundamental forces in the universe and to learn more about how the universe was created. Its taking place at certain because so has, its the most powerful accelerator in the world right now. And its also a community that brings together institutes from all around the world and the expertise for them to, to really advance the field of particle f as in 2012 researchers that sir and achieve their greatest success to date, experimental proof of the long sought higgs bows on it was named after british physicist peter higgs, who concurrently with his french colleague false while on last described of the properties of the as yet unknown particle. The 2 or jointly awarded the nobel prize in physics in 2013 today is unusual that the proton collisions of the underground tunnel have been stopped in order to do Maintenance Work on the late fee for its detectors. Just kind of relaxed kind of my typing. This is a diagram of the see a method to take to take to concede doesnt normally the protons would be colliding in the center of the detector. Right now. Time kind of put, but there arent any protons in the collider at the moment that will buttons in these attach. And heres what we see instead of these particles here, which a cold calls make new ones even though who end up producing cosmic rays at a tech to investigate possibly nearly through the detector. And so the detector reconstructed something non linear, and then we would know that it was out of alignment and needed to be corrected to all of them. So we use these calls, make new ones to calibrate down to take to very precisely fiction. Ive done a picture of the parentheses, a surface, a customer called the because there are no particle collisions. Today, were allowed into the 100 meter deep detector room. This would otherwise not be possible as harmful radiation could be released during operation if its the same as the tech to assess via for the tech to into who can i give you the c m. S to take the here is the heaviest detector in High Energy Physics investigate 65 percent heavy of the meal hotel on what we can see through place that the protons come from here and also from behind. And then they collide in the middle of the detect uh tech. When they collide, they practically explode on and then we analyze the fragments and see i know the z. And then the polk stick a proton collisions release, new elementary particles like bows, alms, left tons and clarks, which can then be measured in the c a mess detector. By identifying the particles produced in each collision, measuring their momentum trajectories and energies and then piecing together all the information the scientists can recreate and describe what actually happens during the collision. The things that allow. And then lets see. And this is an equal quarantines. And this allows me to visit study the micro causing the policy cool effects and you have the you might, if its fascinating, that the more you learned about its micro cause a man. Because the more you understand about the big picture with name, the origin of the universe, this, when youve as on by monday, monday, put told when 2 protons collide for a fraction of a 2nd time the collision recreate the conditions of the big bang has had some of the defect box, and we can simulate these clocks and glue owns and swimming around. Do me cycles mix susie mountie by shooting price homes that each of them with incredibly high energy. And ive only seen these kinds of a n a d open. Im the c, as its mike traveling back in time to the origin, devalue universe and steals persistent ones that have to leave as when the protons collide, the elementary particles that shoot off in all directions, leave their traces and the individual segments of the detector. And these traces are translated into a huge phone use of digital data. It all happens in this underground computer room, where all the data from the c a mess detector is received. As far as stand and same as to take the key to imagine packets made off of 100000000000 protocol. And so she also to each other in the c m. S to take the was it like a month . And then does that mean you know, once but 40000000 packing . The 2nd case it for the pm in your family beach collision of these packets. Some 60 protons collide with the protons and the impact release. Hundreds of thousands of articles from titanium, psychiatric then let me to tech, to ask, and im at least different particles are recorded by the detector. That is, is it fits accommodations and in this room picked up a lease, a physical signal from the collisions in the detector. May have been digitized settings that color on and off when that is, if that these a lot of data. So huge files that we have to pre select in the field around the information we can use and expires. Otherwise we can store. So this one is a dot and false alex yet one on sat is youre missing christie, and them direct of all the. The pyramids of visa on the outskirts of the egyptian capital cairo, were built to stand for a turn indeed. And are indeed the only remaining wonder of the ancient world. How many chambers are hidden inside the 3 pyramids is still a mystery. The 3 main chambers among others have already been discovered. But researchers are certain, there must be more, perhaps even the body and the burial artifacts of the pharaoh key ups will be found the since 2015 teams of researchers from japan and france have been using particle physics to study the 3 pyramids of visa using move on imaging, they are reconstructing their inner structure without damaging a single stone. The in the standard model of particle physics milan belong to the group of left on the lawns are formed in the upper layers of the atmosphere. When particles of cosmic radiation collide with air molecules. The particles which travel at almost the speed of light even penetrate large masses of stone around 10000. 00 new ones, hit every square meter of the earth every minute at sea level, the scanners detect the ones that constantly race through the structure. Those that pass through many stone blocks lose a lot of energy and leave a relatively weak trace on the scanners. But if the move on slow through hollow space, they lose less energy forming a stronger image on the scanners. In this way, they reveal the internal structure of the pyramids and helped to discover previously Hidden Treasure chambers and other rooms without having to move a single stone. In 2017, the Research Team is made a spectacular discovery using move on imaging. A previously unknown 30 meter long chamber in the great pyramid. Milan scanning has also proven its worth and inspecting the contaminated for go seem a Nuclear Reactor in japan. Engineers can examine the condition and integrity of the power plants, outer shell, from a greater distance, without having to physically enter the immediate highly radioactive zone. The blue on imaging is also used in bulk analogy, where the flow of elementary particles reveals the underground structure of volcanoes. This enables a kind of Early Warning system for potential volcanic eruptions. But the flow of elementary particles can not only illuminate matter, but also transmit information. Ready cellular phones are based on a discovery from the 19th century. Ready they send and receive electromagnetic waves, which thanks to particle physics, we know are also elementary particles, namely photons, cellphone rate using the electromagnetic force, describing the standard model of particle physics. Busy the silicon based sensors and cell phones are based on the same principle as the detectors had to turn the symbol of th
