The Beauty of Chaos - Strange Attractors
Dear World, Chaos seems to be something that is increasing recently. Had my personal chaotic moment last week when my Computer, the one I did most of my movies with, broke down beyond repair. Farewell old friend! Working from a spare Computer right now, planning for a new system that will speed up the production pipeline. Every complex system with a lot of variables will break down at some point, sometimes it is not even clear what has been the cause. But as long as a process is not stopped completely, there is always the chance for something beautiful to grow. Sometimes in unexpected ways. Uploading these beautiful strange attractor formula animations shortly before the US Election. I´m not even located in the US, but I know the outcome will shape the future of the whole world. No matter what this future looks like, you got to believe in beautiful things still being possible. Even if things won´t be alright for you, create a world where this is possible for somebody else.

How LHC (Large Hadron Collider) Works
The progress of technology in the last century has allowed human to build incredible machines and to do incredible things. It has allowed us to go to the Moon, for example, or to produce nuclear energy on Earth. But one of the most remarkable machine ever built by human is the LHC, the Large Hadron Collider. Want to know more about it and how it works? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Large Hadron Collider, commonly known as the LHC, is a gigantic particle accelerator built under the CERN, the largest laboratory of particle physics in the world, located in the suburb of Geneva, at the border between France and Switzerland. The LHC is an incredible machine, and with its ring of 27 kilometres of circumference, it is actually the largest collider in the world. But what is a collider, actually? In order to investigate in deep the fundamental structure of nature, physicist have to recreate conditions which are similar to those of the Big Bang. One way of doing it is to accelerate elementary particles to extremely high speeds (almost at the speed of light), and then make them clashing together: this is exactly what a collider does. By analysing the outcome of these collisions, scientists are then able to find new particles and to improve our understanding of the Universe. LHC has a circular shape. In its 27-kilometers ring, there are two beams of high-energy protons, travelling in opposite directions. In the collider, these particles are accelerated up to a speed of 99.999999% of the speed of light. How is this done? The main method used to accelerate particles is to use the so-called “radiofrequency cavities”, or “RF cavities”. In simple terms, these are tubes placed all along the collider, containing an electric field which changes direction periodically. There are 16 radiofrequency cavities at the LHC. When a particle with electric charge is immersed in an electric field, it is accelerated by it, and the direction depends on the sign of the charge: if the particle has positive charge, such as a proton, it is accelerated in the same direction as the field. If it has negative charge, such as an electron, it will go in the opposite direction. If the particle has no charge, this method wouldn’t work, since the particle would not feel the effect of the electric field. When protons enter these cavities, an electric field is turned on, accelerating the particles in the desired direction. Each time protons enter a new RF cavity, they gain a bit more of energy thanks to the electric field. Eventually, after they have completed thousands of revolutions and entered these cavities thousands time, they reach a final speed which is almost the same as the speed of light. That is not enough, however, to make a collider. In fact, particles tend to go straight normally, not in a circle. Without any additional system, these protons would quickly crash against the walls of the ring. So, how to keep them in a circular trajectory? This is done by using magnetic fields. Contrary to electric fields, in fact, magnetic fields do not accelerate particles with electric charge; instead, they just deflect them, so that they change direction. Here, strong magnets are used to deflect the protons and keep them along the circular ring of LHC. However, in order to be able to create magnetic fields strong enough to deflect these high energetic protons, scientists need to use special magnets in the LHC. These magnets operate in the so-called “superconducting state”, a particular state in which they have almost zero loss of electrical power. This can only be achieved by keeping them at very low temperatures: in this case, about degrees! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

Star Distances: How Far Away From Earth?
Stars have always been considered from a romantic and poetic perspective. But how far are stars? Do they really are so distant from us? And how can we measure such tremendous distances? Are there any valid techniques? A lot of surprising things can be said about these questions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is it possible to calculate star distances? Definitely yes, but some further explanations must be clarified. Obviously, we can’t measure such a huge gap with the normal methods we are used to on earth. We must calculate distance in an indirect way. What does it mean? We need to measure two different quantities that are related to each other through distance; then, with a simple equation, we can easily derive how far the star is from us. Let’s make an example: if we want to measure how many kilometers are there between two cities, we can drive at a constant velocity and measure directly how much time does the journey take. After that we can just get information about the distance. Similarly, physicists utilize the different types of brightness of a star that depend on distance to know how far the star actually is. Before going on more rigorously on this subject we must list the major units of measure used to identify the distance of a star. The first one is astronomical unit, which is exactly the gap that separates Earth from the sun, corresponding to 1011 meters or 8 minute at the speed of light. The other one is parsec, nearly around 1016 meters or 3,26 light years, which represents the distance that causes a change of one degree in the sky over an entire year. This phenomenon is also known as parallax, but we’ll discuss it later. In order to understand the major techniques used in astronomical researches, we need to take a little step back and define some important physical quantities. The first one is absolute luminosity, which is the radiation power of a light emitting object. Consider it as the measurement of its brightness: a small lamp has a lower luminosity than a lighthouse. Moreover, we can define another quantity that derives by the previous one and it is named apparent luminosity. It is proportional to the inverse of square distance. Shortly, apparent luminosity is higher when the star is closer and viceversa. A lighthouse is certainly brighter than a lamp, but if it’s 10 or 20 times more distant the lamp will “seem” having a greater power. Apparent luminosity is a sort of superficial density of power. In parallel, physicists defined apparent magnitude which is greater when luminosity is lower and smaller when luminosity is higher. As a matter of fact, the brightest star visible from Earth, which is known as Vega, has a conventional value of zero. Obviously, it is dependent on distance and can be considered as an equivalent of apparent luminosity. In addiction, another quantity called absolute magnitude has been introduced by scientists: it measures the magnitude that all stars would have at a distance of 10 parsec. Similarly to what we did before with velocity and time, astronomers usually utilize absolute and apparent magnitude to derive distance. Since apparent magnitude can be measured through telescope observations, it is necessary to find objects that have a well-known absolute magnitude. These stars or galaxies are also called “standard candles” are they’re crucial for measuring distances of stars. The first object that is very useful for this method is a cepheid. Its major characteristic is the emission of electromagnetic waves: its intensity varies with time according to specific laws. How far can we find star distances thanks to this method? Around 1 kpc, just the closest ones can be detected using Cepheids as standard candles. As opposed to this technique, there’s even another way of revealing star distances at this scale just by using geometric properties. Did you know that? Its name is Parallax. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.
