[Phys-L] quantum physics



The Perimeter Institute created a three part series for HS students called
"The Challenge of Quantum Reality".
It is excellent.:

The Mechanical Universe Series has four episodes on QM:

Episode 49: The Atom - The Mechanical Universe

The Perimeter Institute videographers visited my University and filmed my
demo apparatus of Young's Double Slit with Single Photons because we were
one of the few Universities with this experiment.


I will add that if this student or others are also interested in Modern
Physics and Relativity videos then I can also recommend these:


Ultimate speed

The energy of electrons is increased to make them travel at higher
velocities. But there is a limit. The velocity can only increase up to a
speed equal to that of light, in agreement with the theory of special
relativity.

Time Dilation

The Time Dilation of cosmic ray mu-mesons between the summit of Mountain
Washington and sea level.

All of these videos have been shown to our physics students each semester
for decades.
