Физикът и сърфист Гарет Лиси представя един противоречив нов модел на Вселената, който... може би... отговаря на всички големи въпроси. Ако не друго, това е най-красивият 8-мерен модел от елементарни частици и сили, който някога сте виждали.

8-мерен модел на Вселената

A radical new model suggests that all elementary particles and forces, including gravity, fit into an intricate eight-dimensional geometric structure known as E8. This elegant pattern, with 248 symmetries, could unify the patterns of particle physics and reveal missing particles yet to be discovered. At the heart of this vision is the idea that nature’s deepest codes are geometric, as seen in the branching possibilities of quantum mechanics. The Large Hadron Collider’s hunt for new particles may soon test whether this mathematical beauty truly underlies reality.
