ged particles, so it can measure how fast they39。s in there that those miniBig Bangs will be created, sometime in the summer this actually, this morning, I got an saying that we39。s 39。 it39。s a wonderful , you might be asking, “Why? Why create the conditions that were present less than a billionth of a second after the universe began?” Well, particle physicists are nothing if not the aim of particle physics is to understand what everything39。m made of, let39。s no real reason I39。ve observed, it was very 39。s an incredibly plicated, beautiful as you heat it up, it39。s in that same sense that we look back in time to understand what the universe is made , as of today, it39。s carried by this thing, the quarks are stuck together by other things called these guys, here, they39。t when the sun shines, you get copious quantities of these things, called neutrinos, pouring , if you just look at your thumbnailabout a square centimeterthere are something like 60 billion neutrinos per second from the sun, passing through every square centimeter of your you don39。s a big country, America, isn39。s just up the road.(Laughter)So, this thing was discovered in the year 2000, so it39。ve discovered any of them, when you realize how tiny they know, they39。ve discovered pretty much the full , one of my most illustrious forebears at Manchester University, Ernest Rutherford, discoverer of the atomic nucleus, once said, “All science is either physics or stamp collecting.” Now, I don39。s possible.(Laughter)But what he meant was that what we39。ve discovered the particles, but unless you understand the underlying reason for that patternyou know, why it39。ve done stamp haven39。s the Newton39。s called the standard modelbeautifully simple mathematical could stick it on the front of a Tshirt, which is always the sign of is it.(Laughter)I39。ve expanded it out in all its gory equation, though, allows you to calculate everythingother than gravitythat happens in the , you want to know why the sky is blue, why atomic nuclei stick togetherin principle, you39。s a anyone see what it is? A bottle of champagne for anyone that tells 39。s an extra symbol in this equation: , stands for Higgs particles have not been they39。re necessary to make that mathematics all the exquisitely detailed calculations we can do with that wonderful equation wouldn39。s a prediction: a prediction of a new does it do? Well, we had a long time to e up with good back in the 1980s, when we wanted the money for the LHC from the , Margaret Thatcher, at the time, said, “If you guys can explain, in language a politician can understand, what the hell it is that you39。t mean just space, it means me as well, and inside youthe whole universe is full of something called a Higgs particles, if you analogy is that these people in a room are the Higgs when a particle moves through the universe, it can interact with these Higgs imagine someone who39。re imagine someone incredibly important and popular and intelligent walks into the 39。s almost like they get get that39。re surrounded by Higgs 39。s true, then we have to discover those Higgs particles at the it39。s quite a convoluted mechanism, although it39。ve been able to think ofthen whatever does the job of the Higgs particles we know have to turn up at the , that39。m glad you recognize Margaret , I thought about making it more culturally relevant, but(Laughter) that39。s essentially a guarantee of what the LHC will are many other 39。s another issue, which is that the forces in natureit39。s almost as if there was one beautiful kind of superforce, back at the beginning of they just there39。t sound like a actually, with this theory, we find that the forces of nature do seem to unify together, back at the Big Bangabsolutely beautiful model wasn39。s really mainstream if I was to put money on it, I would put money onin a very unscientific waythat that these things would also crop up at the other things that the LHC could in the last few minutes, I just want to give you a different perspective of what I thinkwhat particle physics really means to meparticle physics and that39。s given us a wonderful narrativealmost a creation story, if you39。d say that it deserves, in the spirit of Wade Davis39。s universe was about 75 percent hydrogen, 25 percent still is continued to expand about 300 million light began to travel through the was big enough to be transparent to light, and that39。re beautifully the weak force had been a little bit different, then carbon and oxygen wouldn39。s a wonderful and significant years ago, I couldn39。t know makes me really feel that that civilizationwhich, as I say, if you believe the scientific creation story, has emerged purely as a result of the laws of physics, and a few hydrogen atomsthen I think, to me anyway, it makes me feel incredibly that39。m certainly looking forward with immense excitement to it being turned .(Applause)第三篇:TED演講稿ted精彩演講:墜機(jī)讓我學(xué)到的三件事 imagine a big explosion as you climb through 3,000 a plane full of an engine going clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, sounds ,當(dāng)你在三千多英尺的高空;想像機(jī)艙內(nèi)布滿黑煙,想像引擎發(fā)出喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦的聲響,聽起來很可怕?!?機(jī)長已經(jīng)把機(jī)頭轉(zhuǎn)向,我們離目的地很近,已經(jīng)可以看到曼哈頓了。他關(guān)上引擎。然后他說了幾個(gè)字,我聽過最不帶情緒的幾個(gè)字,他說,“即將迫降,小心沖擊。我可以在她眼神里看到恐懼,人生結(jié)束了。i leant that it all changes in an have this bucket list, we have these things we want to do in life, and i thought about all the people i wanted to reach out to that i didnt, all the fences i wanted to mend, all the experiences i wanted to have and i never i thought about that later on, i came up with a saying, which is, collect bad if the wine is ready and the person is there, im opening no longer want to postpone anything in that urgency, that purpose, has really changed my ,一切都改變了。之后我回想那些事,我想到一句話,那就是,“我收藏的酒都很差。我不想再把生命中的任何事延后,這種緊迫感、目標(biāo)性改變了我的生命。i choose to be ,正當(dāng)我們通過喬治華盛頓大橋,那也沒過多久,我想,哇,我有一件真正后悔的事。我試著把每件事做得更好。我想到我和妻子、朋友及人們的關(guān)系,之后,回想這件事時(shí),我決定除掉我人生中的負(fù)面情緒。過去兩年我從未和妻子吵架,感覺很好,我不再嘗試爭論對(duì)錯(cuò),我選擇快樂。當(dāng)我們逐漸下沉,我突然感覺到,哇,死亡并不可怕,就像是我們一生一直在為此做準(zhǔn)備,但
