ThePauli exclusion principleis the quantum mechanical concept that no two very particles in all the Universe may concern the same quantum state simultaneously . What does that mean , on the nose ? Well , for starters , it means thatthe butterfly effecthas nothing on the issue of the Pauli exclusion principle .
In this clip from BBC’sA Night With the Stars , theoretical physicist Brian Cox uses the tenet of the riddance principle to instance the interconnectedness of the Cosmos , in a monstrance that is at once elegantly straight and absolutely nous - boggling .
UPDATE : cushion of shocks , it turns out the niceness of quantum natural philosophy can not always be summed up in neat , 90 second television receiver segments — not even by the glorious Brian Cox . foresighted account light : the cathartic in Cox ’s account are a bit off . Flat out untimely , even . Fortunately for all of us , Discover ’s Sean Carrol has put together a lengthy ( albeit approachable and elucidative ) account of where Cox go astray . you may check it out here .

And yes , this is fromthe same program wherein Cox inscribe Simon Pegg and Jim Al - Khalilito demonstrate why atoms have so much empty blank space . What ’s that you ask ? Why does n’t America have hour - long television specials hosted by science rockstars and attended by cosmos - celebrated fame from the spheres of science and entertainment ? That ’s a damn good interrogative .
