[DIVERS] d'autres dimensions?

["Laurence Durand" <lmbash@wanadoo.fr>]

Voici un article qui interpelle. Ces chercheurs sont-ils crédibles?

Newswise — Researchers at Northeastern University and the University of  
California, Irvine say that scientists might soon have evidence for extra  
dimensions and other exotic predictions of string theory. Early results  
 from a neutrino detector at the South Pole, called AMANDA, show that  
ghostlike particles from space could serve as probes to a world beyond our  
familiar three dimensions, the research team says.No more than a dozen  
high-energy neutrinos have been detected so far. However, the current  
detection rate and energy range indicate that AMANDA's larger successor,  
called IceCube, now under construction, could provide the first evidence  
for string theory and other theories that attempt to build upon our  
current understanding of the universe.An article describing this work  
appears in the current issue of Physical Review Letters. The authors are:  
Luis Anchordoqui, associate research scientist in the Physics Department  
at Northeastern University; Haim Goldberg, professor in the Physics  
Department at Northeastern University; and Jonathan Feng, associate  
professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at University of  
California, Irvine. The evidence, they say, would come from how neutrinos  
interact with other forms of matter on Earth.“To find clues to support  
string theory and other bold, new theories, we need to study how matter  
interacts at extreme energies,” said Anchordoqui. “Human-made particle  
accelerators on Earth cannot yet generate these energies, but nature can  
in the form of the highest-energy neutrinos.”
