  • This series has made the discovery a lot easier to understand and the "bumps" in the graph that gets everyone excited make a lot more sense.
  • Brilliant, you made it simple ! I had never seen something as quickly and efficiently explained as this before. Thank you ! I really wish you could show us the control room of the LHC in a very detailed fashion, explaining every operator's job, etc ... It would be amazing since it is difficult to have informations on what are the exact procedures, what are the informations displayed on the bunch of screens ... Congratulations, your work is really helpful for non-physicists 👍
  • @palantir135
    Keep ‘m coming these explanation videos about particle physics. I love them.
  • @rangewarwick
    Casino Rabbit must get his own show. Oh yea, that's the first time that I have understood what the "excess" means. Great explanation. Thanks.
  • @user-pk4sb1kl7x
    This series of three videos is, without doubt, the best thing I have ever watched on YouTube. The presentation is very clear and the use of occasional humor is excellent. And I learned a lot too. Thank you so much for this contribution.

    Excellent video! This is the clearest explanation I have seen for the Higgs discovery. Thank you and congratulations! I wonder if you could do one on the Higgs mechanism itself. I find that the level of these videos very nicely fills the gap between very basic explanations where all the Physics is lost in analogies and the ones which are meant for people in the field, requiring a strong scientific background. Well done Piotr! Go CERN!

    Fantastic job on the explanation of finding new particle. It happens that I literally visit CERN yesterday. It still keeps me amazed of what I saw there. Thanks to you I gained one step closer of grasping how the new particles are detected/discovered. Lots of appreciations!
  • @jurjenbos228
    Wel done explaining a hard paystubs problem in clear language
  • @STAG162
    It boils down to two points in the end: Anomalies and sample sizes. Basically the core of what CERN is about.
  • This was easy to understand! Great breakdown! This is coming from someone who didn’t get past algebra in high school and no college lol but I really loved it and understood. Can’t wait to watch more videos & learn more
  • This video series are really well explained. Thanks for this, now I understand the process. I hope to see more videos like this.
  • @Eldorado1239
    One of the clearest, most digestable videos on such complex topic I've seen. Well done! I feel like Higgs especially suffers from "by physicists for physicists" explanations. By the way, if anyone wants to learn more - I highly recommend the lectures by professor Leonard Susskind, you can find them here on YouTube. There's even a playlist called "Leonard Susskind - All Stanford physics lectures in order" that can be used as a guide. Also DrPhysicsA and Eugene Khutoryansky for individual focused explanations.
  • @remyb718
    Guys, this series of videos is just awesome. I never understood all of these experiment, now at least I know the level 0. So here is a random thank you :)
  • This explanation/series was very very easy to understand and I only finished my second year of undergraduate physics. Thank you. Edit: Also, is it possible to make a video/series on the search for magnetic monopoles please?
  • @MatildaHinanawi
    I've been to CERN and learned about the collider, but this is so much better, even if shorter.
  • @ejmccall312
    Great explanation in layman's terms. Would love to hear CERN scientists' theories about the implications of their discoveries.
  • Very nice! All explained in a simple way. Could you do a video or series of videos explaining how the different particle accelerators work?
