So you’re telling me Sonic the hedgehog had the right idea
And color apparently
@@ISawSomethingOnTheInternet yep .. same thing - rigth idea to use blue light
The blue blur, baybee
It'a funny when you remember that Sonic can't swim
Not only that but the Warp Nacelles in Start Trek with that same blue glow...
My favorite atomic phenomenon. Astronauts see flashes of blue light as cosmic rays pass through the water in their eyeballs.
Or cosmic rays hit a cone or rod in your eye and momentarily activate it.
@@MOSMASTERINGSince they respond to photons, and cosmic rays are actually high energy particles, would they actual be activated?
No way. For real??
@@chriss5266Think so. In the end both could be electrical Signals hm
@@stalkinghawk9244 Maybe, but it's not really an apples to apples comparison, so seems unlikely. Even if we incorrectly assume each would interact w/ rods/cones in the same manner, visible light photons are in the 1-10 eV range for their energy, where as cosmic rays range from 1Gev to 10^8 TeV!
to anyone still confused, the electrons are moving faster than the speed of light *in water,* not the speed of light in a vacuum.
Thank you, i was so lost😂
i know that but im still confused here , like i dont know what to see or aprecciate 😅

@@tryfergoodra552pretty blue from big brain physics 😊
@@tryfergoodra552the speed at which things can travel varies based on what medium they travel through. Sound waves are a great example. Sound waves are effectively the vibration/displacement of matter that we pick up via our eardrums. They move outward from the source more or less exactly like a ripple in a pond. Because it travels through particles moving, the closer together the particles are the faster the displacement can travel. Hence, sound travels faster through solid objects than through water, air, etc. this is also why there is no sound in space, there is no matter to displace Light behaves quite differently, and takes knowledge of quantum physics/mechanics to truly understand, not something I’m gonna even bother trying in a yt comment section lol Regardless, I hope I helped a bit
Not many people get to see this sort of phenomena in person. I did when I worked for a Nuclear Power Plant. It is still one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
Phenomenon. Phenomena is the plural.
@@desbugfan8429 Hmm, good point, but I'm pretty sure the plural use works here as this in a reoccurring event and is happening in each of the many rods in the pools.
cap . this is visible in small experimental testing reactors there is no way you would be able to look down into a reactor in a working nuclear energy plant
@@xgladar Didn't know about the small experiments, but that's neat. And I never said I looked down into a reactor. It was a cooling pool where "used rods" are kept. But they are still very much active and hot which is why I could see them through like 200 feet of water; so cool! Will never forget the sight.
It's just a blue light, bro.
Visible "sonic booms"... maybe they could be called "optic booms" :D
you can usually see sonic booms so this is dumb asf. The boom is from exploding air not illuminating water

I was taught it sinply with this phrase: Chernekov radiation happens when matter moves through a medium faster than light moves through the same medium. It is important to emphasise them point of a medium.
Yes and neither are going "faster than the speed of light" which is a constant.
@@aydinsha Well, it is going faster than the speed of light *in water.* The speed of light is a constant, but varies depending on the medium, much like the speed of sound. Nothing is faster than the speed of light *in a vacuum.*
@@aydinshathe speed of light in any specified medium is a constant for that medium, with vacuum as a universal speed limit.
@@aydinshathe speed of light _in a vacuum*_
@@Vi-Six Quick correction: "The speed of light is a constant, but varies" this is a contradiction. It is either constant or it isn't. In this case, the speed of light c is a constant but the *group* velocity of light in different media can be vary. Personally I don't like mixing up the term "speed of light" with the speed of group velocity since it fundamentally suggests c is changing when it isn't. It certainly does APPEAR that light is changing speed but it isn't, only group velocity. If you define speed of light as group velocity then it's technically not wrong but just misleading in my opinion.
If you didn’t know the reactor in the video is called the foxtrot 9 nuclear reactor and the type of uranium used is a mix of u-235 and u-238 or possibly plutonium-238
Nice info even i don't understand what on the video 👍
Damn that is some really cool knowledge!
How did you know that hm? 🤨@@sobhas94

I've seen this in person. And I can say, without a doubt, that it is the most unique and special thing you can ever see with your eyes. There is quite literally nothing else on this planet that looks this way and it's impossible to mimic this effect with other means. It's super cool, the video unfortunately doesn't truly show what it looks like but it is truly amazing.
That sounds so cool! Did you work at a nuclear reactor? I wish I could see it with my own eyes too but I doubt they'll ever allow tours at nuclear reactors. I think they should though! The more the public learns about and understand nuclear power, the closer we get to a future where we harness that power and thrive. It is the safest, cleanest, and most effective source of energy we have yet invented.
@@Thetruthiscosmicif I recall correctly the reactor in video is some experimental one that is exposed in water so scientists can check how things work. I guess you would have to be quite influential like a science youtuber for them to allow you to check it out, or be a scientist and work there, or be their janitor lol
@@stasi0238 @Thetruthiscosmic As far as I'm aware it is possible to do tours at very *specific* reactors. The really small research ones specifically, but even so it's still extremely rare. I was doing research on radioactive decay and energy production. This is where the importance of things like Half-lifes come into play. Seeing the Cherenkov radiation was so special though. Definitely a dream come true and for sure on of my top 5 favorite memories I've ever had.

I worked thirty seven years at a nuclear power plant and opening up the reactor for an outage was always cool to see. Also when fuel handlers moved the fuel rods. That neon blue glow is both beautiful and deadly.
Yeah i was a fuel handler for 5 years before transferring, definitely cool to see but the glow made it so hard to line the bundles up with the top rack especially right after shut down and using the cameras was never fun 😅

Naaaa that's bullshit one of the safest places to work is a nuclear power plant search about WANO the other day I was working with a french guy from WANO an amazing guy
Yay radiation!! Ouch. Radiation..
@@elprimerplayer277saying its the safest place to work is a big f**cking stretch. Sure its safe but not the safest by far.
Fun Fact: the difference between *the speed of light in a vacuum* and *the speed of light inside a material* (i.e. *not* in a vacuum) Is the basis for the Index of Refraction of that material. How much light slows down in a material describes how much it bends the light. Bonus Fun Fact: the "negative index of refraction" metamaterials do *not* make light go faster than light in a vacuum, nor is their index of refeaction actually negative, its just between 0 and 1. It's just a naming convention. These materials bend light opposite the angle that a non-metamaterial does, they do not "speed up" the light, that wouldn't make any sense.
So, through anything other than a vacuum, some particles with mass can travel faster than photons?
@ghostlyfieldclub2930 yes. It is fascinating, and it comes from wave/particle duality. I'll try to summarize, but you can absolutely read more about it, even the Wikipedia article is really helpful. Okay, so the lower mass something is, the more like a wave it becomes. Photons behave the most like waves. Particles with mass, like electrons, also behave like waves, but to an ever-so-slightly-less degree. Waves propagate through a medium at what's called the *phase velocity*. Photons are strictly limited to that, but charged particles can move past the atoms of a dielectric material (a material that can be polarized), and excite that polarization faster than the phase velocity. When atoms are excited, they relax by releasing photons. But since the excitation is faster than the phase velocity, the resulting photons that are released lag behind the exciting charged particle, creating something similar to a 'sonic boom' of light, which is the blue that we see. Photons are limited to the phase velocity, so they can't create the same asymmetric excitation that the charged particles can. So in this very specific instance, where light behaves almost too much like a wave, charged particles can go faster than photons. In a vacuum, the limitation is back to being accelerating mass, and photons win by having no mass. Side note: things like this are also why some materials are shiny, but that's from something called the 'plasma frequency', and it's a whole other story.
@@daniellewis3330 I love the explanation, thank you very much!
@ghostlyfieldclub2930 glad to help 😊
@@daniellewis3330Which Wikipedia article specifically? Cherenkov radiation, or something else?
I think this is why science is made to seem so boring but why I liked Dr Stone. I don't know what's happening and the science guy is explaining this to me as if I'm supposed to know. This stuff is supposed to be important and source of energy but I'm not shown how it works in layman's terms nor why it matters to me. Uranium tubes...Nuclear Fission...why should that matter to me exactly? (Using this video). It's cool to you because you know what's going on but we dont so it doesnt matter to the common man.
i hate it when people post misleading titles to their videos. light slows in different mediums, electrons pass faster than light in water because the light is slowed. this is also the same effect a black hole creates when we see spaghetification beyond the event horizon, yet because of the over simplification and misleading titles to research, we have an entire generation of people trying to figure out ftl travel when it's not even remotely possible. we call these types of ages "dark ages" because we are stuck trying to prove something that has already been proven otherwise. literally zero advancements made because people are wasting their time trying to create a light speed breaking engine when it's proven as not possible. can we go back to researching fusion again or are we really just gonna dedicate my lifetimes age to a dead guys hypothesis?
More proof the camera man never dies.
Bruh
chance of dying there is extremely low. hell, even jumping in has a lower chance of dying than driving your car
Lol Water is actually an incredible shield against radiation, but yeah media often skews anything regarding radiation so that information is not well known
@@zahnatom You would die jumping into that. Not to radiation though. To the armed guard keeping watch to prevent that from happening.
Radiation is just a hoax look it up please
"The blue glow is not from the radiation" Later on "Its from radiation "
To be fair, it's kinda more of a "a sonic boom isn't from the jet hitting you, but from a shockwave being made from it moving too goddamn fast." It's just that light and Electromagnetic radiation are made from the same thing so it's clumsier to explain.
@@BlackKnightsCommander more concisely, light IS electromagnetic radiation.
Sounds like y'all are nerds and op made a correct analysis
@@accelerator1666 Op is correct, if you are willing to call the wake in the water a "boat".
Yeah, he meant radioactivity, not radiation
That's why Goku is blue sometimes
The reading comprehension of these comments is something else...
You’re safe near that reactor than you are in a coal mine
I worked in and out of nukes for almost 40 years and the nukes today are a lot different than the old ones. They give you 2500 millirems per quarter of radiation that you can get, and years ago you would sometimes get close. The new plants, you don't get much more than if you worked outside
@@4wheelliving132 some places it can even be less because how controlled everything is
Hell, in a reactor complex you'd probably get less radiation exposure than you would taking a walk down the street.
Coal mines are not known for their safety, I would feel more comfortable in front of a speeding vehicle than a coalmine
Another reason why blue is such a cool color
You should see this in UV :)
I did what you see there.
Crips ftw!
Missed opportunity to end the video with "That's pretty *rad* "
It’s more than just pretty cool. It’s phenomenal!
It's important to make the distinction that the particles accelerated by the reacter aren't breaking the theoretical speed limit of the universe, i.e., the speed of light in a vacuum. The speed of light in water is ~.75c (c is the universal constant for speed of light in a vacuum). So, particles can travel faster than the speed of light in that medium without violating the Theory of Relativity.
The video does….
Reactor* And the particles aren't "accelerated" by the reactor, they are spontaneously emitted by atoms attempting to reach stability.
Exactly
also, it's important to mention that the light itself isn't slowed down, it's just hitting a lot of atoms, so it bounces around and curves more. C stays constant
so it's slower :) @@monodragon

To all the people saying light moves slower in water: it does not. because of the medium, the light simply has to take a more "crooked" path, making it take longer. light speed is constant regardless of medium. EDIT: Since I keep getting comments correcting me, and can't find my other comment down in the replies, here's some additional information: I'm obviously simplifying in my original comment, but it's essentially the same end result. Basically what happens is, when light goes through a medium, the reason it takes longer (longer path), isn't because it tries to "avoid" particles or molecules as it may seem in my original comment, but rather, it's disturbed because the light keeps getting absorbed and re-emitted by the atoms in the medium, making the path way longer. When a particle moves faster than light can to complete this process (distance becomes easier to clear for the particle than light), then a shockwave occours in the electromagnetic field due to it's inability to re-adjust in time, causing the emission of blue light in this case
Yes you are right 👍
Yup
..meaning it's slower. If it takes longer in water, it's slower in it.
@@Dan_Animationlight takes more time to go to observer than matter because of the ways both elements go through water.
@@edwardkuusela235 Ah, got it. Thanks
Light can also increase and decrease in speed, the speed is not constant according to Roger Spurr.
So, was Einstein right or wrong?...
its the vacuum part that's the caveat. So yes.
No. Cherenkov radiation is not created by objects moving faster than light speed. It's created by the electric field moving through a medium at a certain velocity of propagation. If the electric field moves through the medium faster than the medium can emit light, a charge is built up and released in the form of Cherenkov radiation. It has more to do with how fast an atom produces the photoelectric effect and not really anything to do with the speed of light.
For someone trying to sound smart you should know there is nothing of an "electric field"... There are electromagnetic fields, and visible light is just a narrow band within the electromagnetic field
@@Nidvard Thanks for your feedback. However, you're mistaken. The electric field and magnetic field combine to form the electromagnetic field.
@@Nidvard The behavior of the electromagnetic field can be resolved into four different parts of the variation in space and time: electrostatic fields, static magnetic fields, varying electric fields, and varying magnetic fields. The first two are produced by charges and currents, which are then combined into the electromagnetic field tensor in the presence of both a distribution of velocities of charges and currents. The behavior of electric and magnetic fields, both as separate entities and as a collective whole, are governed by Maxwell’s equations. This behavior of the electric field as defined by Maxwell's equations is what I was referring to. The electric field becomes out of phase with the emitted light wave and builds a charge that creates Cherenkov radiation. The electric field moves at a fraction of the speed of light as denoted by the velocity of propagation. Also, I didn't say anything about the visible light spectrum. Or the magnetic field as I'm referring specifically to the electric field and its charge. I hope that makes sense. Let me know if you have any more questions.
@@Nidvardplease learn some physics before calling people out. Look up some lectures on electricity and magnetism. Please learn something.
@@Nidvardyou are embarrassing
It kinda looks like a kurzgesagt animation
Can we drink 🍸 the water.?? So that we can get sonic speed.
Forbidden night light
So if we can fill the galaxy with water... We can travel faster than light... Sounds easy enough
besides the difficulty of filling the galaxy with water, it still wouldn’t make us move faster. cherenkov radiation occurs when light is moving slower than it should be, so for example the light in this video is moving at 0.7c, and the other particles are moving at 0.8c. that still is less than c, it’s just that the miscellaneous particles are moving faster than the other photons in the solution.
@@drewprice9284 ahhh I see. It's like the speed of sound being different at different elevations, I gotcha.
You would need to be a particle smaller than a photon, then you could go faster than light in water.
We have the ocean. Load the rockets up with explosive outburst water tanks.
By Einstein's ToSR and ToGR, light has a constant speed, always equal to c. However, many wave interference effects take place in a reradiating medium, such that the velocity of light's PHASE becomes lower. In other words, a phase shift at each reradiator (atom) layer, that at larger scale looks like slower light with shorter wavelength. Highschool physics most often just set it as a given that light slows down, but without explaining the mechanics behind it.
Every household should have one of these
To the future: this video will be watched again when the other realm of the universe is discovered by human and interact with for real. Do not know how many years it will take. Just say high to 2024 if you read this message.
Bro defeated every science video that says nothing can move faster than light
Cherenkov di... your bro here simply made a vid on a well known phenomenon and misrepresented it. One more thing, it's been known that quantum entanglement blows all this out of the "water" since Einstein was working on his big equation.
Light travels slower in water which is why this happens in fission bath tubs.
The light particles are slowed down in the pool. The radiation in the pool moves faster than the photons in the pool. The radiation is not travelling at light speed, not even close. It's just bad wording.
@@doublesynchrohelix8613he didn't misrepresent it
That blue light is almost as bright as when someone turns on your bedroom light when you're mid-stroke.

i like how it looks exactly like i'd image nuclear reactors to look like
This brings back memories as a nuclear engineering student at Arizona. For various classes/experiments we'd need to pulse the reactor and you'd get to see the chernekov radiation. For those lucky few that happened to be walking by the reactor lab when we did this, they might look up at one of the mirror above the reactor pool when they see a bunch of students around the reactor and catch the show too.
Cherenkov radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle (such as an electron) passes through a dielectric medium (such as distilled water) at a speed greater than the phase velocity (speed of propagation of a wavefront in a medium) of light in that medium. You've missed to say 'faster that speed of light in that medium' doing a huge blunder . Nothing can move faster than speed of light in vacuum.
Technically the electrons ARE moving faster than light in a medium. That's what causes Cherenkov radiation.
He did say that tho
Trying to correct him by being overly pedantic is the real huge blunder here.
He did say it. Where's the blunder?
Homie in such a hurry to sound smart he didn't even listen to the video and hear what the guy said. This dude got some insecurity issues.

Maybe it's possible to go faster than light, because the light is so fast cuz it has no mass so theoricly, something with a negative mass might go faster than light
negative mass is still... mass, in theory it would go backwards or something, like do the opposite of regular mass. It's a fun though experiment.
Is it blue for the same reason that blue shift light is blue? Like blue shift/red shift to figure out if stars are moving towards or away from us?
No, it’s unrelated to that. It’s just electron emissions from the electrons gaining energy and then falling back to a stable lower energy. When this happens a photon is released, it just happens to be blue because of the material and the speed of the particle.
Blue-shifted light can actually be any color. The reason we call it that is because blue light is higher-frequency. If visible light from something coming towards us is higher-frequency than it should be due to its motion then it has been shifted closer to being blue, or blue-shifted, and visible light that is lower-frequency than it should be has been shifted closer to red, or red-shifted. You could just as easily call it violet-shifting and have it be arguably more accurate. In other words, if an object should only be glowing in the infrared but it's moving quickly towards us and it appears to be red as a result, the light was still blue-shifted. Likewise, if a violet object is moving away from us and appears blue as a result, the light was still red-shifted.
I get a sense of fear once it turns on, like IDK how any of it works or much of what it is but I know I don't wanna be in that water.
