Physics every 60 or so years "Nahhhhh THIS is actually the smallest particle"
The next new particle should be called the Ant-on
It's funny to hear Anton get so technical and then immediately use the very scientific term, "thingy."
It would be pretty shocking if there's nothing smaller than quarks.
Is There Something Smaller Than Quarks? Yes, my salary
If something doesn't want to break up, you're not smashing it hard enough. (we're gonna need a bigger collider)
The 9 year olds in my class love teasing me about being SO short. They will say "you are so small that you are smaller than an atom"... because of watching your channel I now know about quarks... so I will joke with them and say "quark" but using the sound of quack (like a duck ) I have explained to the kids that there are quarks in an atom ... it's a fun old-lady way to joke with the kids..
If I'd had a physics teacher explain subatomic particles as clearly as this, my career path might have been quite different. Thanks for this!
The reason they are refered to as flavors and not types is because mathematically the 6-types of quarks are simply a variable f in the same way that color charge is a variable. Early on in the study of quarks there were only 3 variables: up, down, and strange, and they composed a 3D model of how quarks operated. However it was lacking at higher energy levels, so they postulated the existence of the other 3 to balance the books and they later confirmed the other 3 really did exist.
Please, physics community, don’t name them prions (preons?). We already have misfolded proteins called prions.
