In 1977, Ray and Charles Eames unveiled "Powers of Ten," a film exploring the scale of the universe, setting the stage for today's particle physicists who delve into the mysteries left at the film's conclusion. Fast forward to the present, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN continues this exploration, having discovered the Higgs boson in 2012, which answered fundamental questions about the mass of particles. However, despite advancements, scientists face a "crisis" with unresolved questions about dark matter and the absence of new particles beyond the Higgs. This impasse has sparked innovative approaches, including the use of machine learning and plans for new colliders, to uncover nature's secrets. The journey from the macroscopic universe to the subatomic world underscores the relentless pursuit of knowledge and the evolving challenges in understanding the universe's fundamental constituents. As we look to the future, the potential of technologies like the muon collider opens new frontiers in particle physics, promising to shed light on the mysteries that remain. https://lnkd.in/gYSmKCjT #Physics #CERN #IP #VC #Patents #DeepTech #Research

Holographic Principle Exploring the frontiers of theoretical physics, the holographic principle presents a groundbreaking idea that could revolutionize our understanding of the universe. Originating from string theory, this principle suggests our world might be a two-dimensional membrane, casting all information onto its surface and potentially resolving the complex challenges of quantum gravity. This innovative concept, still in the conjecture stage, signifies a potential paradigm shift in physics, reminiscent of the monumental changes brought by Einstein's General Relativity." #Hashtags: 1. #HolographicPrinciple 2. #StringTheory 3. #TheoreticalPhysics 4. #QuantumGravity 5. #PhysicsRevolution 6. #EinsteinLegacy 7. #SpaceTime 8. #QuantumForces 9. #PhysicsInnovation 10. #DimensionalShift 11. #ScientificBreakthrough 12. #FutureOfPhysics https://lnkd.in/eHsMeYSd

Einstein predicted this rocket 100 years ago: It exceeds the speed of light and twists space The theory of relativity formulated by Albert Einstein one hundred years ago revolutionized the world’s view of space and time, as well as the mechanics of the universe. One of the many interesting things predicted by his theories is the ability to bend the fabric of space-time to allow spaceships to go faster than the speed of light, an idea long confined to the world of fiction. However, new research indicates that one of Einstein’s theoretical constructs—a warp drive—may not be as impossible as they once thought. A global team of researchers, operating under the Applied Physics tag, has been looking at a new idea called the constant velocity warp drive, which may lead to real warp propulsion within the confines of the physical universe’s laws.

Vijay Varma, Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, and Nils Deppe, Assistant Professor of Physics at Cornell University, are both computational astrophysicists. The two love space. Their work, however, lies not in looking through telescopes to study the stars, but in developing and using state-of-the-art numerical relativity codes that make high-accuracy gravitational wave predictions for Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) signals. Through their computational work, Varma, Deppe, and their SXS collaborators create high-accuracy simulations of Einstein's equations that are matched with experimentally observed gravitational waves, providing the necessary insight required to extract useful astrophysical data from those waves.

3 Body Problem: The phenomenon from the Netflix series dissected The popular Netflix series 3 Body Problem, which launched in March 2024, delves into many topics that the researchers at the Faculty of Science deal with on a daily basis. Virtual realities, extra dimensions, and advanced nano fibers weave throughout the storyline. However, the three-body problem is leading. What exactly entails this complex issue, and does it have real-world significance? PhD candidates in theoretical physics, Mick van Vliet and Arno Hoefnagels, shed light on these questions. #uuscience #research #physics #3bodyproblem  

Our latest Research Highlight 💡 is all about the imprint of cosmic strings in high frequency gravitational waves. Géraldine Servant and our PhD Alumni Peera Simakachorn show in new theoretical calculations that wrinkles in the fabric of spacetime, known as cosmic strings, could be a dominant source of gravitational waves at ultra-high frequencies.

Exciting news from the world of cognitive research! 📚 We're highlighting a study from Wroclaw University of Science and Technology that delves into the effects of arithmetic and memory tasks (ranging from easy to hard) on cognitive load. The study not only used eye tracking but also measured participants' task performance and included subjective feedback through the Single Ease Question (SEQ) and NASA-TLX Scale. Based on the research, their team proposes a theoretical model for predicting cognitive load adapted to machine learning techniques. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/e2C_XgfK

New Research: Exploring Extra Dimensions Through High-Energy Collisions and Gravitational Wave Analysis I'm excited to share our latest work, where we delve into one of the most pressing challenges in modern physics: the potential existence of extra dimensions beyond the familiar four-dimensional spacetime. Our study investigates how these additional dimensions could influence high-energy particle collisions at the TeV scale and affect the propagation of gravitational waves. Using advanced simulation models, we've explored scenarios that could lead to the detection of gravitons, deviations from the Standard Model, and the interaction between dark matter and extra dimensions. Key Insights: - Extra dimensions could become observable in future LHC experiments that exceed energies of 14 TeV, providing new data on particle collisions. - Gravitational waves could offer critical insights, potentially revealing the presence of extra dimensions through the propagation of gravitons into higher-dimensional space. - The interaction between dark matter and ordinary matter may be significantly affected by extra dimensions, suggesting new pathways for direct detection experiments. This research builds on recent developments at CERN, LIGO, Virgo, and other observatories, helping to bridge the gap between quantum mechanics and general relativity. #Physics #Research #ExtraDimensions #ParticlePhysics #GravitationalWaves #DarkMatter #HighEnergyPhysics #LHC #QuantumMechanics #GeneralRelativity #ScientificDiscovery #DataScience #AdvancedSimulations #InnovationInScience
