100ly, the diameter of the solar system or the diameter of the Earth... after all, why is it so impossible to test string theory on particle accelerators? What size should they be to create the necessary energies to test it?djolds1 wrote:Godamn... some of the people who frequent this board need complete sense of humor transplants.AcesHigh wrote:I see, but why exactly we say we would need a particle accelerator 100 ly in diameter to test string theory, for example?
such a lenght is needed for what? Probably to accelerate particles the closest and closest possible to light speed, I suppose...

But as possibly a small win (or at least a stay of final execution) for supersymmetry: This article claims that finding the Higgs at the masses they have searched would have ruled out supersymmetry.[/url]
