There, absolutely all of reality and the laws that govern it can be explained by this simple loop, you can thank me later.

>>17066339
To keep the rest energy centered?
>>
>>17066339
the higgs boson is spinless
>>
>>17066363
>the media calls is the “god particle”
That’s a lot of PR for a no-spin boson.
>>
>>17066339
just like drills spin, to make it easier to move
>>
>>17066363
A spinless field allows the background value of the Higgs field to remain constant everywhere without breaking the symmetrical laws of physics. This zero-spin trait is required for the field to interact with other particles, slowing them down and granting them mass.
>>
What does spin 1/2 even mean?
>>
>>17066560
understanding angular momentum is the hard part.
>>
>>17066339
cycles are the most natural state of a system
>>
>>17066560
Pauli would exclude you from the party.
>>
>>17066483
does the Higgs field extend seamlessly/smoothly across an event horizon?
>>
>>17066483
That sounds pretty god-like. Higgs boson is god particle. Cool.
>>
>>17066560
>A particle with spin 0 is like a point: it looks the same from all directions. A particle with spin 1, on the other hand, is like an arrow: it looks different from different directions. It only looks the same again after a complete rotation (360 degrees). A particle with spin 2 is like an arrow with a point at each end. It looks the same again after half a rotation (180 degrees). Accordingly, particles with higher spin look the same again after rotations through smaller fractions of a complete turn. There are also particles […] that do not look the same again after one rotation: they require two complete rotations! The spin of such particles is given as ½.

I prefer to assume everything else is at rest and I am the one rotating, curling, and fluxing in every other direction simultaneously.
I spin so that others my rest.

thank you spinboy

A masterclass in frogposts.
>>
>>17066339
Why do you assume it does lol
>>
>>17066651
Ok, but how do point-like particles like electrons look the same after 2 rotations
>>
>>17066691
>guize, wats the diff twix “point” and “point-like”?
Kek.
>>
>>17066691
They aren't actually spinning in space. The property resembles physical rotation, but it is not. I'm not aware of a better explanation for this than "intrinsic angular momentum."
>>
>>17066697
Ok, they're not spinning in place, but they behave as if they did?
>>
>>17066699
> I can’t imagine it, halp!!!!
At this point you either accept it and move on, or you get stuck on this one issue.
Your call.

so why do the blue and red lines know to take turns bending up or benind down to keep from being tangled.
>>
>>17066923
The picture isn't a physical system. It's a visual analogy of an idea that does not translate easily because we have no lived experience of the real thing.
>>
>>17066641
Great question, yes and that scares me at an energy level according to standard general relativity and quantum field theory, the Higgs field extends seamlessly and smoothly across the event horizon of a black hole.
>>
>>17066923
>I guess I have no choice but to continue to play dumb
Your questions have all been answered.
Your understanding is immaterial.
>>17066926
>reality isn’t real so we draw pictures
This guy knows.
>>
>>17066939
That could in tune with the early universe and the red dots, black holes becoming a core around concentrated matter prodcution.
