it could also help shed light on another physics idea—Large Extra Dimensions (LEDs). LEDs could explain why gravity is weaker than the other fundamental forces of nature, and why neutrinos have ...

The study seeks to explain the presence of dark matter using a WED model. The scientists studied fermion masses, which they believe could be communicated into the fifth dimension through portals, ...

A new underground facility called DUNE, which will accelerate particles for 800 miles between Illinois and South Dakota, ...

One possibility is that we don’t feel the full effect of gravity because part of it spreads to extra dimensions. Though it may sound like science fiction, if extra dimensions exist, they could explain ...

The idea of extra dimensions grew out of string theory ... the fourth dimension of space changes how gravity operates on small scales, which changes the rate at which small black holes form ...

Theories with extra dimensions of space could follow suit ... which couples to matter more strongly than ordinary gravity does. However, the additional gravitational force that arises from ...

Calabi-Yau Manifolds: Complex geometric structures that are used in string theory to compactify extra dimensions, allowing for a rich variety of physical phenomena. Weak Gravity Conjecture ...

While this could help scientists determine why matter dominated antimatter in the early universe, it could also help shed ...
