The Europeans invested a lot of money in the LHC. Some scientists are saying that the whole project would be a waste of money if they could only find the Higgs-Boson. They're now delving into unknown territory. They may find something by serendipity, or they may not. Let's wait and see.

The LHC has already been trying to detect mini black holes, but has come up empty-handed. This is what would be expected if there are only four dimensions, since the energy required to produce black holes in four dimensions would be much larger (1019 GeV) than the energy that can be achieved at the LHC (14 TeV). However, if extra dimensions do exist, it is thought that they would lower the energy required to produce black holes to levels that that the LHC can achieve. As Faizal explained, this happens because the gravity in our universe may somehow flow into the extra dimensions. As the LHC has so far not detected mini black holes, it seems that extra dimensions do not exist, at least not at the energy scale that was tested. By extension, the results do not support string theory or parallel universes, either.' ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <jr_esq@...> wrote : If yes, then there could be extra dimensions above space-time, and the multiverse could exist.
