Subscribe to BBC News www.youtube.com/bbcnews British physicist Brian Cox is challenged by the presenter of Radio 4's 'Life Scientific', Jim Al-Khalili, to explain the rules of quantum mechanics in just a minute. Brian succeeds; while conceding that the idea that everything is inherently probabilistic, is challenging. Even Einstein found it difficult. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04hvx9z Subscribe to BBC News HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog Check out our website: http://www.bbc.com/news Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/bbcworldnews Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/bbcworld Instagram: http://instagram.com/bbcnews

Questions:
How does an entangled electron know what the other electron is doing on the other side of the universe?
How do they communicate when they flip quantum states together?
What happens to an electron half way between jumping between one orbital and another orbital in an atom?
Saying that "time does not exist" for an electron is a cop-out and an excuse for ignorance.
Quantum Theory works but it is still a "Half Theory". -
I came here after watching film theory.

Feinman should rot in hell for confising everyone bringing probabilities into it and confusing 3 whole generations.
-
Huzzah! I'm an expert in quantum mechanics.
-
what if math appears to be true too some extent .....what do we do then if we find out that math can only get you so far.

...Mads Mikkelsen
-
Mandelbrots and animated fractal geometry sort of helped me understand that, in a tenuous sort of way.
-
....erm? Still don't get it. Think I'm just gonna go back to watchin porn
-
my life goal is to be as happy as Brian is
-
what a load of Cox

Could the mathematics of quantum mechanics represent the physics of ‘time’ as a physical process with an emergent future unfolding relative to the atoms of the periodic table therefore unfolding relative to our own actions? This is the idea that this theory is promoting that the wave particle duality of light and matter in the form of electrons is forming a blank canvas that we can choose how we interact with forming a future of our own choice relative to the energy and momentum of our actions. Light is a wave over a period of time and only has particle or photon properties when it interacts with the electrons of the atoms.
If we have an interactive quantum theory with the atoms of the periodic table interacting with the wave particle duality of light with an emergent future unfolding photon by photon the extra dimensions of String Theory and parallel universes of Hugh Everett Many worlds interpretation can represent future possibilities and opportunities in our one three dimensional Universe of continuous energy exchange or continuous creation. -
mathematics is the pillar of everything.... this universe is math

I used to study at the University of Manchester and I never knew Brian Cox back then and never met with him. I then moved back to the country I unfortunately belong and it was then that I got to know Brian Cox through his "Wonders of..." series. And now I can't regret enough not knowing him, now - when I worship him.
-
looks like there's much planning behind him and on him to be a great big gya
-
I guess I'm a quantum mechanic now.

Cock I mean Cox can't explain shit he just repeats shit already out there by others. Cheesy smiling ponce however is more explanotry. The guy looks so anaemic like he lives on salad only. He talks a bunch of twaddle all the time.
-
talk about over complicating it and making it sound boring!

A quantum system behaves like a particle but that's Tuesdays, it behaves as a wave but that's on Thursdays.
