Allow me to explain: the doorway idea came into fruition in the 1960s.Īfter years and years of attempting to hide UFO phenomenon, including large scale and very public interactions such as the Roswell incident, and the Battle for Los Angeles incident well before that, the governments of the United States, Great Britain, and France decided to throw their weight behind the understanding of what precisely these objects were. CERN’s main purpose for building the Collider was too, well it was to open a door way. This is NOT what the machine was designed for, nor is it what the machine has been used for since it’s inception. The public has been told that it was constructed at a cost of tens of billions of Euros for the purpose of studying the birth of the universe and the collisions that take place within the collider allow us a quick glimpse at certain phenomenon that can only be witnessed when particles hit one another at incredibly high rates. Most of you who have heard of CERN will have heard of the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) the largest scientific instrument which exceeds 20 miles in diameter and travels under the sovereign territory of two countries (Switzerland, France).

If micro black holes do appear in the collisions created by the LHC, they would disintegrate rapidly, in around 10 -27 seconds. What exactly we would detect would depend on the number of extra dimensions, the mass of the black hole, the size of the dimensions and the energy at which the black hole occurs. This method of searching for missing energy in events is also used to look for dark matter or supersymmetric particles.Īnother way of revealing extra dimensions would be through the production of “ microscopic black holes”. We would need to carefully study the properties of the missing object to work out whether it is a graviton escaping to another dimension or something else. A graviton might escape our detectors, leaving an empty zone that we notice as an imbalance in momentum and energy in the event. Collisions in particle accelerators always create balanced events – just like fireworks – with particles flying out in all directions. If gravitons exist, it should be possible to create them at the LHC, but they would rapidly disappear into extra dimensions. Some theorists suggest that a particle called the “graviton” is associated with gravity in the same way as the photon is associated with the electromagnetic force. Such heavy particles can only be revealed at the high energies reached by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). If CMS or ATLAS were to find a Z- or W-like particle (the Z and W bosons being carriers of the electroweak force) with a mass 100 times larger for instance, this might suggest the presence of extra dimensions. These heavier versions of particles – called Kaluza-Klein states – would have exactly the same properties as standard particles (and so be visible to our detectors) but with a greater mass. Theories that suggest extra dimensions predict that, in the same way as atoms have a low-energy ground state and excited high-energy states, there would be heavier versions of standard particles in other dimensions. ![]() How could we test for extra dimensions? One option would be to find evidence of particles that can exist only if extra dimensions are real. Ants living on a much smaller scale could move around the cable, in what would appear like an extra dimension to the tightrope-walker. She can only move backward and forward but not left and right, nor up and down, so she only sees one dimension. But if we could look on a small enough scale, that hidden dimension might become visible again. Now if one dimension were to contract to a size smaller than an atom, it would be hidden from our view. How could there be more? Einstein’s general theory of relativity tells us that space can expand, contract, and bend. In our everyday lives, we experience three spatial dimensions, and a fourth dimension of time. Though it may sound like science fiction, if extra dimensions exist, they could explain why the universe is expanding faster than expected, and why gravity is weaker than the other forces of nature. One possibility is that we don’t feel the full effect of gravity because part of it spreads to extra dimensions. Why is gravity so much weaker than the other fundamental forces? A small fridge magnet is enough to create an electromagnetic force greater than the gravitational pull exerted by planet Earth.
