Surprises at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory – can a miniature Hyperspace ever be created?
Can we ever create the Hyperspace – at least the miniature version of that? Before you become entirely skeptical, watch out for some surprises at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, NY.
To look deep into the fundamental structure of matter is to look billions of years back in time, to the moment when matter first blinked into being. Recreating the conditions of that moment has long been an aim for physicists wanting to understand how the universe evolved from the cosmic fireball that existed a fraction of a second after the big bang. Now researchers at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, have, almost certainly, finally recreated the moments after creation.
By colliding nuclei together at enormous speeds, RHIC experimenters were able to break down the structure of nuclear matter. This resulted in the formation of a long-sought-after plasma that is believed to be the primal stuff of the cosmos, the state of matter at the beginning of time. It turns out, though, that the nature of matter is inextricably tied to the vacuum in which it resides. And the RHIC experiments have thrown up some surprises. They seem to show that the vacuum is a richer and more complicated place than was previously imagined. They suggest the boundary between something and nothing is more blurred than experts had predicted. The stuff made at RHIC is plasma consisting of quarks and gluons, the most basic building blocks of everything we see around us.
Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) describes how the force between the quarks is carried by the mass-less gluons.
In QCD, it is the vacuum that imprisons the quarks. While it may sound like a barren place, the vacuum of QCD is a complex, dynamic arena. It writhes with virtual particles that appear in pairs, then annihilate and disappear again. RHIC surprisingly may have created artificial wormholes openings! It may not too far from creating a miniature Hyperspace environment
The Hyperspace is a classical Quantum Vacuum. Particle real there but virtual to us continue to surprise us. In the collider, the QCD may be the first glimpse of the Hyperspace or something that comes very close to it.
The virtual particle from the Hyperspace – we can feel them, sometimes see them but cannot capture, observe or manipulate them. Many scientists believe because the extraterrestrial UFOs are made of these virtual particles, the UFOs behave in a similar way.
