Mysterious Tau particles unlock the quantum world.

 Mysterious Tau particles unlock the quantum world. 


Tau particles are not very common in the universe. Those mysterious particles can unlock secrets of the quantum world and dark matter. A tau particle is a similar particle to an electron but it is much heavier. It belongs to the lepton family of elementary particles.  The existence of the Tau particle remains for only a very short time. 

Researchers suggest That particles to used as a proving theory that all fundamental forces and all elementary particles are the same things. But those particles' mass and energy levels determine what a particle is. Same way as energy level and wavelength of the wave movement determine what fundamental force it carries. This is one version of the GUT (Grand Unified Theory). 

The measurements that should uncover invisible interactions between quantum particles and fields can made by colliding those Tau particles. In some other models, the spin and wobbling of those particles were observed. And those things can tell something about the invisible interaction. The problem is that the lifetime of the Tau particle is (2.903±0.005)×10^(−13) s.

So the measurement time is very short. Another problem is that the interaction time between Tau and its environment is very short. And that makes it possible that the Tau has no time to make the interaction between it and its environment. 

Tau particle is a very good tool to make those observations because it's so rare. That means there is only a weak artifact wave movement can get full-scale interactions between the environment and those particles. The artifact elimination in those measurements means. That the system can eliminate wave movement. That comes from other particles. That is outside the system and out of the control. 

The problem with the Tau particle is that it lives a very short time, and the energy flow out from that particle is very strong and short. This energy flow causes a vacuum around the particle. And that vacuum rips particles into pieces. 

The GUT theory. Or some of its modification claims. That system can create all elementary particles by adjusting elementary particles' energy levels. But the problem is that some elementary particle's lifetime is extremely short. And that makes measurement very problematic.

Researchers think that the multiverse is not fiction anymore.

Multiverse means that our universe is one of many universes. The reason why researchers and scientists believe that this is true is that logical. About 50 years ago people didn't know that there were other solar systems. Exoplanets were only theories in the 80's.  About 400 years ago people thought that our Sun was the only star in the universe. Edvin Hubble proved that our galaxy, Milky Way is one of many galaxies. Then researchers found that galaxies form groups, and supergroups. That means that today we think that the universe, where we live is the ultimate supergroup of galactic supergroups. And logically thinking there should be other universes. We believe that the universe began its existence in an event or series of events called the Big Bang. That event did not begin, because the energy that formed material should come from somewhere. The Big Bang was not one "bang" or explosion. It was a series of events where material took form. Or the energy level that it h...

Spinning cylinders prove a 50-year-old physics problem.

"Scientists at the University of Southampton have experimentally proven the Zel’dovich effect by amplifying electromagnetic waves using a spinning metal cylinder, confirming a theoretical prediction from the 1970s and opening new avenues in technology and quantum physics. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, 50-Year-Old Physics Theory Proven for the First Time With Electromagnetic Waves) "“Colleagues and I successfully tested this theory in sound waves a few years ago, but until this most recent experiment, it hadn’t been proven with electromagnetic waves. Using relatively simple equipment – a resonant circuit interacting with a spinning metal cylinder – and by creating the specific conditions required, we have now been able to do this.” (ScitechDaily, 50-Year-Old Physics Theory Proven for the First Time With Electromagnetic Waves) Researchers amplified electromagnetic waves using spinning metal cylinders.

What makes it hard to create a room-temperature superconductor?

"The discovery of wave-like Cooper pairs in Kagome metals introduces a new era in superconductivity research, offering potential for innovative quantum devices and superconducting electronics, driven by theoretical predictions and recent experimental validations. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Kagome Metals Unlocked: A New Dimension of Superconductivity) "Superconductivity is a set of physical properties observed in superconductors: materials where electrical resistance vanishes and magnetic fields are expelled from the material. Unlike an ordinary metallic conductor, whose resistance decreases gradually as its temperature is lowered, even down to near absolute zero, a superconductor has a characteristic critical temperature below which the resistance drops abruptly to zero. An electric current through a loop of superconducting wire can persist indefinitely with no power source" (Wikipedia, Superconductivity) Theoretically, a superconducting electric circu...
