HHmm, Good point, probably needs an expert at CERN or something. I reminds me about a debate on quite what happens when a fly hits a windscreen. In a first place it ain't particles, that's math jargon, but waves or fields, both of which are scalar so it concerns more something like mergence than opposition. As an external sensory level of objects in space your question is valid, so needs standard science which has no answers versus quantum physics which also has none, as far as I know, which is not everything.
Apart from that, considering even only the material universe, at 14 or whatever billions of lightyears it follows, ipso jure, that information exchange - which it is as between particles and anything else - has to be faster than light. So treated as a continuum one gets more and less violent exchanges. Violent as in, say, super novas. A while back a supernova spewed out enough equivalent energy as a hundred billion sun units in a year, or something like that, so one could say, reality does not get disturbed at violence, we do. It sums up as reality being able to absorb and emit untold amounts of energy from anywhere. Under Einstein whatever the relative speeds it still sums at only lightspeed, which does not add up does it? Hence time dilation and all that to escape that dilemma. My view is that time is the remaining background of event changes after we've elected what to observe and foreground, for an infinite universe amounts to, haha, anything we don't observe, which is most of what goes on in reality. Put simply, the answer varies by which kind of expert you ask. Not much help either, is it? But Einstein and Q don't fit together. Psychologically speaking any doubt indicates you've got hold of an issue or question that needs further investigation. Ask an LHC expert and see what gives. Since they're waiting for the 10 Sept results, you will probably get theoretical, speculative waffle. Wikipedia is very learned but explains little. God knows it may take years to interpret the results. It'll be interesting to see how long the High's Boson will remain stable, if it happens at all the way they expect. By the looks of it they're slowly working up to its full capacity. It's not anywhere near the cubcic cm of the ZPE field that supposedly would blow up the world. OR, as one scientist once put it: it gives us something to do. adrian stephen wrote: > could anyone teach me my doubt: > > in LHC, the particles in clockwise will speed up to 99% of light > speed, and anticlockwise particles also will be speed up to 99% of > light speed, now: > > a. what will be their Relative speed when impact? > > b. in such high speed, the Time will become very slow?
