The "ghost particles" and the speed of the light

 


The "ghost particles" and the speed of the light


The highest speed, what particle can reach in the universe is the speed of the light. There is a couple of times when the measurements have shown that the electron or atom nucleus has been crossed the speed of light in the very high energetic tests, which are made in the most powerful particle accelerators. But then the inspections have shown that the speed of the light is not crossed. 


And the reason was that the atomic particle, what speed was very close to the speed of light or cosmic speed limit traveled shorter journeys than the photon. That's why those atomic particles have been first at the sensor, which means that the speed of the light has not been crossed. But then the question is, why this kind of thing is noticed just after the test, not during the test. 


The thing that makes this kind of test extremely hard to make is that the photon and the ionic particles cannot shoot at the same time. The most powerful particle accelerators are cyclotrons and the problem is that the photon doesn't react in electromagnetic fields, and that means that the researchers cannot use the most powerful tools, what they have. So they must use less powerful linear accelerators for sending ion and photon to the journey at the same time. 


Because the system and time of the test are shorter the calibration of that kind of system is really difficult. The particles are traveling very close to the speed of the light, and the problem is that if the test team uses cyclotrons, they must calculate the speed of the particles because they cannot use real photons in that process. So a couple of centimeter difference between the calculated and real lines of the particles can disturb the results and give the wrong results. 


Are the ghost particles and hypothetical tachyons the same thing?


Another explanation for those wrong results was that the particle that travels near the speed of the light would like to pull the other particle from somewhere. So the idea is that when the particle would reach the speed of the light, it would act like some kind of giant magnet or Black Hole, what pulls something to our universe, and is that thing that is pulled to the particle accelerator the mythic tachyon? 


Tachyon is the particle, what would travel in the universe with the speed, what is above the speed of the light. That is possible because of tachyon born at the speed, which is above the speed of the light. And that means that this particle ever comes to our universe and they would be existing in the universe or dimension where the material would travel with the speed, what was higher than the speed of the light. That means the speed of the light is the wall, which separates the tachyon universe from our universe. Tachyon cannot decrease its speed under the speed of light, and the particle cannot increase its speed above the speed of the light, because they are impacting tachyons.


But if the particle would travel near the speed of the light that thing causes that the tachyon would impact that particle, which slows the speed, what mean tachyon would give resistance, what denies crossing the speed of the light. The theory goes that the greater mass of the object causes that the particle would pull the tachyon from another universe at a lower speed, and that thing would explain, why the particle cannot reach or cross the speed of the light. 


The reason would be tachyons, what is pulling the energy away from the accelerating particles is the reason, why the particle cannot reach the speed of the light. The energy that makes this thing possible is just slipping away, and that thing makes crossing the speed of the light impossible.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
