I agree that many stringers won't give it up that easily, (especially fanatics like, Lumo), but I'll bet that it causes a many more fence riding theorists to abandon those foolish notions.islandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16774086177497447408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237654928835551390.post-26023893270895181052011-04-26T07:03:41.147+01:002011-04-26T07:03:41.147+01:00Vladimir,

After all, they have convinced over twenty governments to pour money into an experiment that is supposed to prove false ideas: supersymmetry and additional dimensions.Clara, once known as Nemohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15931393389874902234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237654928835551390.post-70602529721651965792011-04-26T00:43:11.100+01:002011-04-26T00:43:11.100+01:00I hope that it is not due to the desire to show th...<i>I hope that it is not due to the desire to show that 5 billion euro were well spent.</i><br /><br />I expect null results, and consider them to be well worth the expense if it helps to knock some sense back into theoretical physics.islandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16774086177497447408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237654928835551390.post-19776127941512314922011-04-25T21:56:07.164+01:002011-04-25T21:56:07.164+01:00WW unitarity is an issue in the current SM.
