Scientists create matter from nothing in groundbreaking experiment
BGR ^ | September 18th, 2022 at 9:02 AM | Joshua Hawkins

We know that colliding two particles in empty space can sometimes cause additional particles to emerge. There are even theories that a strong enough electromagnetic field could create matter and antimatter out of nothing itself.

Big Think reports, in early 2022, a group of researchers created strong enough electric fields in their laboratory to level the unique properties of a material known as graphene.

With these fields, the researchers were able to enable the spontaneous creation of particle-antiparticle pairs from nothing at all. This proved that creating matter from nothing is indeed possible, a theory first proposed by Julian Schwinger, one of the founders of quantum field theory. And with that knowledge, we can hopefully better understand how the universe makes something from nothing.

Does this mean there’s a chance for me to experience a holo-suite like on Star Trek? Not Meta, but a real experience.

This experiment is BS.

Matter and energy are not just related, they are identical. What we call matter and energy are just different manifestations of the same physical phenomenon.

From energy.

M = E/c2

Apparently, it works both ways ...

Yep, this article and the writers are dishonest “SCIENCE!” hacks. They either know full well the matter was created from energy or they are so ignorant all they can see is how this furthers an ideology. I see for them a great need to prove their is no G-D by claiming they created something from nothing themselves, which the experiment never did.

Conservation of energy is a standard scientific principal. In it, neither matter nor energy can be created or destroyed. They can change form from one to the other, however. Special Relativity settled that.

Biden is the opposite, he creates nothing out of something all the time.

metmom, you are a genius!


They did not create something from nothing.

They used machines to set up conditions in which to create something.


They did NOT CREATE SOMETHING FORM NOTHING.
See above.

They will NEVER succeed in creating something from NOTHING.
They keep trying to claim that, but it just ain’t true.
There is only one Being who can do that.

Why? Who is it you want to do...I mean, what is it that you want to do on a holo-deck?

The author's bio:

Joshua Hawkins fell in love with writing and technology at a young age. Eventually he decided to combine the two and started writing about video games, the latest tech, and all the cool gadgets he could find. Whenever he isn’t busy writing about tech or gadgets, he can usually be found enjoying a new world in a video game, or tinkering with something on his computer.

Hardly surprising that the article is as thoroughly jacked up as most of the comments here ...

Bwa ha ha ha.

Such illiterate or con men weasels

“,researchers.......... created strong enough electric fields ..........in their laboratory to level the unique properties of a material known as graphene.

.......With these fields.... ( that they created/manufactored with something not nothing)...........................................................

.
the researchers were able to enable the...... spontaneous (adjective.
performed or occurring as a result of a sudden inner impulse or inclination and ...........without premeditation ........or............................ external stimulus. )
.
......- ? Like magnetic fields ? ........

creation of particle-antiparticle pairs....................................... from nothing at all...( except the magnetic fields consisting of particles they created with lots of equipment.

/\

Typical Bait and switch

They used magnetic fields to manufactor/ create ,, it wasn’t from nothing.

And it sure wasn’t “ spontaneous” , unless they have changed THAT definition , now was it ?

Spit
