Quotations from: Fermilab and symmetry breaking

Yoichiro Nambu, Makoto Kobayashi and Toshihide Maskawa won the 2008
Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on symmetry breaking in the
world of elementary particles and forces.
Nambu’s formulation of symmetry breaking allows physicists to explain
why there is matter in the universe,
while the work of Kobayashi and Maskawa provides the theoretical
tools to explain why the universe contains no antimatter.
When physicists discuss symmetries, they refer to things that appear
identical.
Symmetry breaking is a way of explaining why things look different
from each other.
=========.
Sadovnik.
How is possible to speak about antimatter if nobody knows what
antimatter is?
==========.
From the combination of spontaneous symmetry breaking and
electroweak
unification comes an exciting prediction: a new particle called the
Higgs boson.
The Higgs is the hammer that breaks the symmetry and gives different
particles
different masses.
===============.
Sadovnik.
Does “the combination of spontaneous symmetry” describe
Physical or pure Mathematical process?
Does anybody find “ the Higgs boson “?
=========.

Currently, close to a thousand physicists from around the world are
searching
for the Higgs boson in collisions produced by the Tevatron
accelerator at Fermilab.
Makoto Kobayashi and Toshihide Maskawa formulated a mechanism to
explain symmetry breaking between matter and antimatter, typically
called CP violation.
===============.
Sadovnik.
This mechanism explains symmetry breaking between {matter and
antimatter),
Between things which we don’t know.
==========.
In 1963, Nicola Cabibbo made a modification to Enrico Fermi’s theory
of the weak interactions to explain the observed decay rates of heavy
quarks into light quarks. Cabibbo showed that the strength of the weak
force differs for different quarks.
Kobayashi and Maskawa expanded upon these ideas and made further
modifications to allow for a difference in the interactions between
quarks and those between antiquarks.
The combined picture, the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, describes
all the interactions of quarks.
The CKM picture of the universe allows for the difference in the
behavior of matter and antimatter that allowed matter to survive after
the Big Bang, while antimatter disappeared from the universe.
================.
Sadovnik.
Nobody saw quark.

Comment:
Years ago, I attended a lecture at Caltech by Gell-Mann in which he
explained why he developed the THEORY of the quark. He was looking
for
a common denomenator to the atomic zoo -- a common denominator of
characteristics. He found some (3) and didn't know what they really
were so he called them Quarks. Later he found more, so he had 6. From
there the theory grew like topsey and develped colors -- BECAUSE THEY
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL THEY WERE. Some theory.
(Then there's "up" "down" --- and I'm waiting for "sideways" :-) )
The quark has never been isolated. So instead of admitting there was
no
such thing, it was pronounced that it could not escape the nucleus.
How
convenient..
Bill uses as an argument that the rest of humanity believes in the
quark. Humanity believed in Ptolemy's universe for FOURTEEN
CENTURIES.
And more recently, practically all of humanity celebrated New Year
2000
as the beginning of a new milleniuim while the FACT is the new
millenium started with the year 2001.
"Humanity" can be very stupid at times.
A more apropos story for the non-existent quarks is the fable about
the
King who wore no clothes. Everybody commented on how COLORFUL his
clothes were (the same colors as have quarks) but, alas, the king was
naked.
If anyone wants to read a theory of the sub-particle structure of the
universe, they can go to http://www.wbabin.net (The General Science
Journal) --find the list of authors pull down -- click on Vertner
Vergon and read the monograph, "On the Quantum as a Physical Entity".

Is “the Big Bang “ real, complete theory?
================.
Besides helping to explain the absence of antimatter, Kobayashi and
Maskawa’s
theories make many other predictions that experimental discoveries
at Fermilab have shown to be true.
The KM mechanism predicted the existence of a third generation of
elementary particles.
Of the particles in this third generation, 75 percent have been
discovered at Fermilab: the bottom quark, the top quark, and the tau
neutrino.
==========.
Sadovnik.
So, we must search new “a third generation of elementary particles. “
My opinion.

In 1906, Rutherford studied internal structure of atoms,
bombarding them with high energy a- particles.
This idea helped him understand the structure of atom.
But the clever Devil interfered and gave advice to physicists
to enlarge the target. Bomb them!
And physicist created huge cannon-accelerators of particles.
And they began to bomb micro particles in the vacuum, in hoping
to understand their inner structure. And they were surprised with
the results of this bombing. Several hundreds of completely new
strange particles appeared. They lived a very little time and do not
relate to our world. Our Earth needs its real constants of nature.
But this was forgotten.
What God carefully created, is destroyed in accelerators.
And they are proud of that. They say: we study the inner structure
of the particles. The clever and artful Devil is glad. He again has
deceived man.
Physicist think, that an accelerator - is first of all the presence
of huge energy.
And the Devil laughs. He knows, that an accelerator - is first of all
the Vacuum.
But this, he has withheld from man.
He has not explained that the Vacuum is infinite and inexhaustible.
And in infinity there is contained an infinite variety of particles.
And by bombing the vacuum, one can find centaurs and sphinxes.
But my God, save us from their presence on Earth.
========= .. ========.
Rutherford was right.
His followers are mistaken.
Why?
Imagine, that I want to plant a small apple- tree.
For this purpose I shall dig out a hole of 1 meter width and 1,20 m
depth.
It is normal.
But if to plant a small apple- tree, I shall begin to dig
a base for a huge building (skyscraper),
or if to begin drill ground with 10 km. depth,
will you call me a normal man?
========== .. ===============.
Imagine a man who breaks watches on the wall.
And then he tries to understand the mechanism of the watches
by thrown cogwheels, springs and small screws.
Does he have many chances to succeed?
As many as the scientists have who aspire to understand
the inner structure of electron by breaking them into accelerators.
If not take into account the initial conditions of Genesis,
the fantasies of the scientists may be unlimited.
========== . ======== .
The Nature works very economical.
For example, biologists know 100 ( hundred ) kinds of
amino acids. But only 20 ( twenty) kinds of amino acids
are suitable to produce molecules of protein, from which all
different cells created on our planet. What are about another
80 % of amino acids? They are dead end of evolution.
The physicists found many ( 1000 ) new elementary particles in
accelerators. But we need only one ( 1) electron and one (1 )
proton to create first atom, to begin to create the Nature.
All another elementary particles (mesons, muons , bosons, taus,
all their girlfriends - antiparticles, all quarks and antiquarks…
etc)
are dead end of evolution.
============.
What was before - “ the big bang” or the vacuum ?
The physicists created “ Europe’s Large Hadron Colider “
Please, look at how our physicists made this accelerator.
They made the vacuum and after they generated a big reaction
between two colliding particles in some small imitation of the
“big bang”. They didn’t make this process in the reverse.
So, what was prior in the Universe: “ big bang” or vacuum?
===========================..
The Universe as whole is Vacuum, first of all.
========.

In 1964, Cronin and Fitch discovered CP violation in K mesons. The KM
mechanism, formulated to explain Cronin and Fitch’s discovery, also
predicted still further differences in the way matter and antimatter
relate to each other. This led to the discovery of a new type of CP
violation in kaons at Fermilab and to the discovery of matter-
antimatter oscillations in Bs mesons at the Tevatron. Another
prediction pointed to a new way to produce heavy particles, a
mechanism also discovered at Tevatron experiments through the
observation of single top quarks.
As in the case of matter generation, physicists expect to find the
Higgs boson at the heart of matter–antimatter asymmetry. With a lot of
work and a little luck, the Higgs boson may be the next great
discovery at Fermilab to grow out of the work of these latest Nobel
laureates and many other great physicists of our times.
===================.
Sadovnik.
Now mathematics goes ahead of science and physics follows it.
Mathematicians carry the posters:“Forward to abstraction”,
“Forward to the absurd” and we all follow them.
We march bravely on the dinosaur’s path.
================.
Best wishes.
