There's a lot of theories out there about the Large Hadron Collider-- but time travel?
出面有很多理論有關大型強子對撞機 - 但時間旅行呢?
Professor Thomas Weiler and graduate fellow Chui Man Ho are suggesting it's a possibility, and doesn't defy the laws of physics. However, they're very clear to point out that this is just a theory, and it would only involve particles, not human beings.
托馬斯韋勒教授和研究生何翠曼文正在提出有一個可能性,及並不藐視物理學的定律,不過,他們非常清楚指出,這衹是一種理論,和它會只涉及微粒,而不是人類。
"Our theory is a long shot," Weiler, who is a physics professor at Vanderbilt University, admitted to the school's research news department, "but it doesn't violate any laws of physics or experimental constraints."
“我們的理論是一個遠拍“,韋勒是范德比爾特大學的物理學教授,對學校的科研新聞部承認“,但它沒有違反任何物理定律或實驗的限制。“
The researchers propose that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 17-mile long particle accelerator in Geneva, Switzerland, could be used to send a theoretical particle back or forward in time, according to LiveScience. That particle, the Higgs singlet, is purely theoretical at this point and is related to another highly theorized (and slightly more well-known) particle, the Higgs boson.
研究人員建議,瑞士日內瓦17英里長的粒子加速器大型強子對撞機(LHC),在時間中向前或向後可被用來傳送一理論性的粒子,根據生活科學。那希格斯粒子單在這一點是純粹理論,和有關於另一高度理論化(及稍為有名些)的粒子,即希格斯玻色子。
The goal of some experiments done at the LHC is to find the elusive Higgs boson particle. According to the original summary by Vanderbilt's research news department, Weiler and Ho's paper suggests that if the Higgs boson is discovered, the Higgs singlet will also be created.
一些在LHC做了的實驗的目標是尋找難以捉摸的希格斯玻色子粒子,根據由范德比爾特研究新聞部的原先總結,韋勒和何的論文提出,如果希格斯玻色子被發現,希格斯單亦將被創造。
From Vanderbilt Research News:
According to Weiler and Ho’s theory, these singlets should have the ability to jump into an extra, fifth dimension where they can move either forward or backward in time and reappear in the future or past.

But even if this is achieved, the theory doesn't even suggest full time travel, just the potential ability to send messages back and forth through time, according to LiveScience.


“One of the attractive things about this approach to time travel is that it avoids all the big paradoxes,” Weiler told Research News. “Because time travel is limited to these special particles, it is not possible for a man to travel back in time and murder one of his parents before he himself is born, for example. However, if scientists could control the production of Higgs singlets, they might be able to send messages to the past or future.”
“其中一樣有吸引力的東西關於這方法作時間旅行是,它避開所有的大矛盾,“韋勒告訴研究新聞。 “因為時間旅行僅限於這些特殊的微粒,它是不可能讓一個人回到過去,及譬如,在他自己出生之前謀殺他父母中的一個。但是,如果科學家能夠控制希格斯單的產生,他們可能能夠發消息到過去或未來。“
The theory (which can be read in its full scientific glory here) relies on an M-theory or "theory of everything" which unites the cause of all particles. Discovering the Higgs boson particle would be a big step in proving this theory, according to LiveScience.
