Does the Universe have Higher Dimensions? Part 1

Signup for your FREE trial to The Great Courses Plus here: ow.ly/6ymM30rvhBa
What do physicists mean when they talk about higher dimensional spaces, or space-times? How could we possibly not have noticed if space was not three-dimensional? In this first part, we will talk about the history of spaces with extra dimensions and how they became connected to dreams of unified theories, especially Kaluza-Klein theory, its achievements and its problems. Next week, we continue with the modern theories of additional dimensions of space.

    Right. Just like Ramanujan. We had some great minds that come out of the ordinary. Think of Pierre de Fermat who was a judge and did mathematics has a hobby. Our currently used public / private key algorithm RSA is based on the results of fermat's little theorem. At the time of it's discovery no one could think of any practical application. That's what a lot of people forget: Science is not done by individuals. Science always builds upon previous ideas and knowledge. Some claim that Einstein was a fraud because a lot of the equations he used in his theory of relativity were discovered by others before him. But that's completely pointless. Again, science build on top of pervious knowledge. Sometimes it just takes a great mind to connect the dots that were there for a long time. That doesn't make such an achievement any less great. The invention of the car is a result of the invention of the steam engine and the invention of the wheel. That doesn't make that invention any less amazing. Just the right input at the right time may lead to the next ground breaking discovery or insight. Many inventions and discoveries in the past were pure luck and by accident. Like penicillin, radioactivity, x-rays, vaseline, gunpowder, microwave oven and many other things.

Als interessierter Laie habe ich folgende Fragezeichen: Die Abweichung zwischen Vorhersage und Messung ist sehr gering. Kann es a) ein Fehler in der Vorhersage sein? b) ein systematischer Fehler sein? (das Experiment wurde in derselben Anlage im Fermilab durchgeführt. Diese ist im Vergleich zum CERN winzig. Wurden eventuell auftretende Zentrifugalkräfte und/oder das Verhalten der Myonen bei relativistischen Effekten (träge Masse) unzureichend berücksichtigt? Schließlich ging es um das "Wackeln" der Myonen durch die Wechselwirkung mit virtuellen Teilchen. Außerdem stört mich, dass immer sofort nach einer "neuen" oder "5." Kraft gerufen wird. Kleiner scheint es nicht zu gehen. Das klingt für mich immer als Schrei nach mehr Forschungsgeldern. Vielen Dank.

    If we assume that the future is not set, that would mean there must be infinite number of branching time lines. We just sit on one of them in each particular moment. Some of those time lines may even intersect. That would mean, the past is not set either. Different versions of the past could equally fit to our current state. Indeed, we cannot reconstruct our past from our present to any possible precision. Some events are irrevocably lost. That is, there may be different interpretations of the past. So, our current time line is branching in the past too. But all those time lines together must live in a certain space. That would be a multi-dimentional time space, because you need not only to identify the position on a particular time line (i.e. our current 'present'), but also which time line it is (among lots of others). How many dimensions would be needed for that is unclear. Such a space would be quite complex thing. But it must definitely exist, at least theoretically.

Change one page of the book and the story is different so it would be a different book. A book case would have every possible combination of books that told the possible stories of our universe with our laws of physics. Change our laws and you have a whole new universe of possibilities so it would have its own book case of possible books. The entire multiverse of universes would be an infinite library.

    Recently I had been pondering - Could there be a connection between the three observable spatial dimensions and the three generations of particles in the Standard Model? Ex: Could it be that generation 1 particles only vibrate on a single plane. were generation 2 particles vibrate on 2, etc? Just a weird thought and I was interested if it had ever been pursued before.

  • @Nibsipipsi

    @Nibsipipsi

    There are some problems with that. Firstly, a single dimension can't hold a plane. A plane is a space that requires more than one dimension. Secondly, if a particle vibrated in only one dimension, it means it would be static in all other dimensions. So if all generation 1 particles would only vary in the "x" dimension, but not the "y" or "z" dimensions, that means that all electrons would only be found on a single line in the "x" direction, which clearly isn't the case. Finally, the number "3" really isn't that special. So the fact that there are three spatial dimensions and also three generations of fermions, really is no reason to assume that it's anything more than coincidence.

    they're not particles mate, they are names given to things that are effecting other things. They only get names because we get stuck. And these 4 new particles are math theories, ie the math requires them as they create the alibi it requires. there is no such thing as a 'particle' there are no little balls racing around, it's all electrostatics and the fuzz created around the nucleus is charge potential only created by electrostatics itself.
