0:00 Then he will visit New York. He will visit New York and then back to the airport because there's no information. Then, another F day, then the chance will go back to X is small. So you may end up with Sydney. And then we will also visit Sydney and then come back, we go to Tokyo and so on. So the probability that he will go back to X is huge. So this is the analog of macroscopic irreversibility, and the whole trick lies in that it's unmarked. All these airfares are unmarked. The airforgates are unmarked. Schedules are unmarked. Whenever you have unmarked activities by macroscopically, then macroscopically it appears to be irreversible. And that's very difficult. We have in our body 10 to the 29 or 10 to the 30 to the 29 atoms, molecules. None of these are there in our body. Today people are doing, even though the microscopically they may well be reversible, the microscopically the number is so huge, much bigger than this. Therefore, clearly, that's why we are here. What has been discovered is that this is wrong. Microscopy was invented in Dortmund, and that is the discovery of key validation. So, when we have discoveries about a symmetry of validation, we may ask, do we have an asymmetrical natural law, or only an asymmetrical world? What's the difference? An asymmetrical natural law imparts an asymmetrical world, but not vice versa. So long as laws of nature are immutable and permanent, these two possibilities are compatible, but they are not the same. Now we will now come back to our theme, the theme is maximum asymmetry.

2:30 It's very connected to the civility, so therefore we want to make the physical laws are in fact symmetrical, but the physical world is not. In particular, the physical values. This is the last element of this curriculum. The reason is because we have illustrated this compatibility. It includes asymmetry and even a variety of asymmetry by using this law. Now we are discussing the part of the goal of politics. What is the law? The end of the law. The politics is there. Neutron or pi. So if you want to reconcile this, we need another thing like this problem to give us. And then we invoke physical mathematics. So we have to look at it very carefully, but it's something we slip into the game. The whole thing is very artificial, so we of course glorify our artificiality by calling it spontaneous. So the spontaneous symmetry equation is the, we say, our physical laws are symmetric. Therefore, we can generate an infinite variety of asymmetric rules, asymmetric values, that's why we observe asymmetry. Then the second, we say, how would we know that? But these asymmetric configurations... Indeed, there is an underlying meaning to mathematical. These are all the spectra of mathematics. So there won't be a zero energy excitation. There will be what we call non-movement focus that can be detected. So there will be a zero-energy focus. And this is very similar to the question you asked. But now we want to hone this onto physical factors being the source of acceleration. What is the physical matter? Physical matter is a state without matter. That means if I will ask everyone including myself to leave this room and we will seal this room tight and then use the thumb to pump out molecules, atoms and bring them away and then we will be inside this room we will be approaching more and more near an idealized state.

5:00 But no matter how hard you do it, there's no way you can pump out the interactions. The virtual gravitation again will be there, will go cutting through this. So because you have interactions which cannot be pumped away, there will be energy fluctuations, so the vacuum can be very, very tough. In the last century, there was one great experiment done by two American physicists, Matheson and Morley. What they did was that they tried to observe the velocity of light, the idea of the Earth, around the rotation direction of the Earth and against it. Now you would think that you threw a ball. Going with Earth, then the light should travel a little faster. Going against it, it will be a little slower. The method is that they're fast, they're the same. So what that means is that the motion world cannot excite the vacuum. It's just like if you job, you're not going to excite the vacuum. And that is the technical term for the method. So it all says that there's no way you can excite the vacuum by normally running around. But there are other ways, and at the end of the day, I'm not running out of time, but ETH is some energy from time. So, ETH is a kind of vacuum that can be excited by observers running around. It's not ETH, but there is a technique called logarithmic, but still it can be complex. It is a complex condensate which can bound symmetry.

7:30 This is the light superconductors, that's why I'm very happy to give the first Reynolds lecture because that's superconductor. The value is like a superconductor. If you have another Reynolds, then you will find the properties of the value of superconductivity. It can undergo phase transition, and this is related to the relativistic. We will now try to see how the similarity between the vacuum, which is relativistic, condensates into a new superconductor. The one thing is a superconductor. A superconductor is not made from no electric system. It is made from a flow of current electric current. It's also a perfect diode magnet, meaning that if you have, let's say, a piece of iron at high temperature, then you can put magnetic fields there. When you lower the temperature, it becomes a superconductor. It expels the magnetic field power. So it's a perfect diode magnet. Inside it has no magnetic field. What we say is the susceptibility of a superconductor is given. The quantum chromodynamics vacuum is a perfect color diagram. The color is very similar to the nuclear electricity. You can take force and antiforce, they will generate color electrons. But the vacuum cannot tolerate any electrons, so the field is bounded. Even a 3-port can also generate the color electric field again, as modeled by the physics. So that seems a little bit expensive, but nevertheless we believe that's right. And so I will just repeat this. If this is a superconductor, the magnetic susceptibility is zero, so it expels the magnetic field out.

10:00 It's a perfect diagram. The vacuum here, the vacuum is straight. It's a perfect die of electric field, so you cannot power it to cut the electric field. So you can cut the electric field generally by the box inward, and that's why the box is free. So what you do is you change the superconductivity of magnetic field to cut it in. Let you feel that the susceptibility inside is zero to hear the dielectric council outside being zero, and the susceptibility of the vacuum being one, and you change that into the inside being one, outside being one, inside being one, outside being one, then you are confined. So after all this very clever subjecting, is it true? How do you know? Now, everything leaves. This is like a superconductor. Then, just like a superconductor, by heating, by high pressure, we can change it. So there must be a way we can change it, right? This is, of course, freedom. It's starting from a quark, hence I remind Roy in the program. In this case, somebody that, from the term of dynamics is concerned, is C-conserved, so is here. We can change fork to anti-fork mode in this seminar, but fork itself is not significant. It's just like you have a magnet, it's not got the drawings at all. Because the main thrust is not defined, particularly the drawings. It's can we change the property of the land by physical things. And that then is relativistic heavy-arm collider. It accelerates the influence of long-term reject, good nuclear, 20T equal to zero.

12:30 The project will be completed next year. It costs about half a billion dollar project to the nuclear community of DOE and it will put also the funders of the high energy community. It's around one billion dollar of the 98 money. So this is actually the largest accelerator that will be completed next year. The CERN LHC is just starting. So before gold and gold collide, the vacuum inside is a new movement. But after they collide, they will pass through. And this region, for a short while, will be excited by it. And this region will be like this. Converting superconductors to some regular method, the force and go on can go freely, and we will measure the correlation by this method. And this is an exciting feature. If this is indeed true, that we do find the force and its volume through our plasma, then we will know that microscopic physics cannot be separate from mathematical physics. This will be the first time we are making change, big change, in terms of particle physics or nuclear physics. So this is the forefront of the basic physics and this is the topic subject that will be... Completed and so next year we will do the result and this is a schematic diagram of the rick accelerator of the 6 knd meter. This is not far from here. I just came this morning from Wuhan and it will be 30 minutes. Now our points of evaluation and with that of the t-variation. They are important. Let us see, I have two more minutes.

15:00 Big Bang is the only recipe for mathematics. Yet our world is definite now. Our world consists of predominantly of nucleons and electrons. Not only here, we also know in the distant galaxies there are also nucleons and electrons because we know in the galactic state that there is... So if there would be a galaxy consisting of anti-nucleons and positrons, then the intergalaxies would have been high-relation. This analysis would have been normal, besides the galaxy ending in the north. And this has been searched, and various high-accuracy chemists, but there doesn't exist a real anti-galaxy composition. So, somewhere along the line from the Big Bang to here, we have our world become a space event. And it's important because that's why we are here. We don't want to see people our age. It won't happen. Because if we start with this event, then we will not be here. So, this is connected with all of the values in here, and put these violations to be spontaneous meaning, like the underlying theory remains the same, but the vacuum, or the world that we live in is not. At present, the origin of T and CP violations is not known, if the violation is restricted only to the chaos system. And we may never know how in order to face this challenge, there are 3D facilities being built at SLAC, formed by A.A. Miller and Mattel. No one can tell me whether we can knock out and destroy a university like this.

17:30 Our university is a world shoe. Some could know that it does not hold. I believe so. Well, it's probably also the paradigm. The paradigm may well be in what we believe. But what happens is the paradigm decomposes and covers it. So, the very beginning, even if you assume that, all is lost. Apparently, however, we know a lot more. CP we know very, very little. So right now, what we already understood, not because it's unimportant, but it's relegated to secondary things. But it's CP that we don't know. It's not important at all. If you take the DCS superconductor, the total number of parts is spontaneous. Now the question is, why is the Deming-Wolfenstone boson there? In other words, the superconductor itself is a different kind of mechanism for spontaneous breakdown of symmetry.

20:00 This lecture is extremely interesting. The question is, because the reason is that, for example, for Mozart, the manifestation is less simple because, for Einstein, you have made a permanent. The envelope I gave you is actually more perfect for Mozart. However, ITC can be logically quantified in all of these. And then, in fact, this is the phonon spectrum, you see, because even though there is a gap, so there remains a phonon in the quantification. And that is the problem. But the BCS would be different. Well, BCS, you see, the BCS, in fact, if you carry it out, there should also be some gap left. But that is a long way left. It's very difficult to find. So you forget it. So the gap remains and you don't have it. But in a sense, because you have compressibility, you can put superconductors here, there, and there, and you can just put, for example, a coin, and you would decide this way, but it's not interesting, so we don't discuss it. But if you have a whole lot of superconductors, like I did, then that hits you right away in this practice. It's a gap. One has ten which apparently exist in the beginning of the plan, but then you'll ask a critic if one can observe the same validation state. So that's the point. No, that could be the point, but that's not the point, because the concentration of the risk is not on the same thing.

22:30 Although this turns out to be, we are now also focused on that. The concentration is linked to the first stage of exploitation, which is quantum mechanics. And that is the concentration. But it is quite possible that the first condition there may also be divided into degrees. And so when you have to two-feed the lambda of the product of the code code from here to there, they will have non-linear calculations. Having to work with the linear, if there are 100 lambda to be calculated to the length of it, without that much power, it has to be perfectly involved. But the thrust of the milk is the beginning to explore the chain of lambda. But on the other hand, the aiming is really the first thing. Dimensionally, we create mathematics and physics, and it's about how we do it.
