Vortex to another dimension reported in Brighton. Vortex to another dimension reported in Brighton Updated 2:04pm Sunday 19th May 2013 in News By Anna Roberts, Crime reporter Vortex to another dimension reported in Brighton Council bosses have been left mystified after reports that a portal to another dimension has opened in a residential street in Brighton.
A member of the public reported to Brighton and Hove City Council that the “wormhole or vortex” had opened up in Montreal Road, Hanover, on May 2. They made the report via the website Fix My Street which is more typically used to report potholes, dumped rubbish and broken lampposts. The Multiverse’s ‘Measure Problem’ If modern physics is to be believed, we shouldn’t be here.
The meager dose of energy infusing empty space, which at higher levels would rip the cosmos apart, is a trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion times tinier than theory predicts. And the minuscule mass of the Higgs boson, whose relative smallness allows big structures such as galaxies and humans to form, falls roughly 100 quadrillion times short of expectations. Dialing up either of these constants even a little would render the universe unlivable. To account for our incredible luck, leading cosmologists like Alan Guth and Stephen Hawking envision our universe as one of countless bubbles in an eternally frothing sea. Multiverse & Universe Origins. Multiverse. Bubble Universe Schmubble Universe?
Scientists are actually making progress scientifically determining whether we live in a bubble universe or not.
The idea of separate bubble universes, of which ours is only one among innumerable others, has always been notoriously both non-verifiable and fascinating as hell. How can we possibly learn anything about another universe that, by definition, is nowhere to be found in our reality. To Avoid the Multiverse, Physicists Propose a Symmetry of Scales. Though galaxies look larger than atoms and elephants appear to outweigh ants, some physicists have begun to suspect that size differences are illusory.
Perhaps the fundamental description of the universe does not include the concepts of “mass” and “length,” implying that at its core, nature lacks a sense of scale. This little-explored idea, known as scale symmetry, constitutes a radical departure from long-standing assumptions about how elementary particles acquire their properties.

This little-explored idea, known as scale symmetry, constitutes a radical departure from long-standing assumptions about how elementary particles acquire their properties.
But it has recently emerged as a common theme of numerous talks and papers by respected particle physicists. With their field stuck at a nasty impasse, the researchers have returned to the master equations that describe the known particles and their interactions, and are asking: What happens when you erase the terms in the equations having to do with mass and length?
