Summary

Is there a Fifth Force? News from the Large Hadron Collider with James Beacham & Phil Ilten. Interesting new result from the LHCb Experiment collaboration was just announced, hinting at physics beyond the standard model. Join me and Drs Phil Ilten and James Beacham (of CHASING EINSTEIN fame). What does it all mean Parity violation and more could result -- some mesons containing b quarks may preferentially decay to electrons rather than muons. #CERN #LHC #LHCb Read the paper here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.11769 00:00 Introduction 05:00 Program starts 10:00 Emmy Noether 15:00 A Fifth Force? 30:00 Dark Photons, Dark Matter & Dark Energy 45:00 Questions from Clubhouse 55:00 Wrap up 🎥 James’s earlier appearances: 1) Is a $20 billion Particle Collider a Waste of Money?

0:00.0	Any sufficient advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
0:08.0	We're talking with Dr James Beecham, who is a member of the Atlas Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider, a past guest on the
0:15.9	Into the Impossible Podcast, two-time guest on the Into the Impossible Podcast.
0:20.2	You can see him in our theories of everything conversation that we had this past summer with
0:24.4	Stephen Alexander and Max Teggmark, mutual friends of ours, and that was over the summer and theories of everything.
0:32.0	Before that, we had a conversation about
0:35.0	theories of everything being explored by
0:38.3	experiments of everything. Do we need an enormous
0:41.4	solar system-sized particle accelerator to discover new physics?
0:45.0	And maybe the answer is no.
0:47.0	If the current existing current circular collider, aka Cern,
0:52.0	is working well, our LHC is working well enough. So that's what I want
0:56.2	to discuss today with Dr. James Beacham, who you will know from the movie Chasing
1:02.0	Einstein and many other venues he's a popularizer of science
1:07.3	Last time we spoke you were maybe working on a book is that still true James
1:12.3	Still in the pipeline, yes.
1:14.0	Awesome.
1:15.0	Well, it'll be phenomenal to get from you.
1:17.0	So we're alive also on Club House
1:19.0	and we've got a bunch of people on YouTube.
1:21.0	So welcome everybody.
1:22.0	While you're up here, if you're on YouTube, so welcome everybody. While you're up here, if you're on YouTube,
