Surely this is a very significant result, the equivalent of the Michelson Morley for (relatively large scale) quantisation of space-time? I believe this kills LQG, but what about CDT, spin foams, and (of course) M theory? Does this kill the idea of compactification, or are those Calabi-Yau manifolds either too small, or do they not have an influence on high energy photons? If this prevents relativity/quantum unification at the Planck scale, this surely makes the split between them even more baffling! (Maybe it's a bug in the Matrix software? :)
All this and the Higgs. Suddenly physics has become exciting again! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
