Particle Physics' Existential Risks
- Particle physics experiments could pose existential risks not just for humans but all life and the universe.
- These risks arise because physicists explore unknowns where outcomes are uncertain until experiments happen.
Universe is Energy Vibrations
- Everything in the universe is made of energy vibrations within quantum fields, not solid particles.
- Matter, life, and emotions emerge from complex interactions of these energy fields.
Matter-Antimatter Imbalance
- An asymmetry between matter and antimatter left a tiny surplus of matter that forms everything visible.
- This imbalance is a fundamental mystery particle physicists are investigating.
