testing mathematics. does super symmetric string theory exist?

The more we discover, the more questions emerge. Will there ever be an end to the search for fundamental truth?

Understanding the why

Curiosity

Pushing forward mankind’s understanding of the universe. That’s a good reason. But besides that we can also get better technologies and also maybe something like the Internet, which started at CERN. The reality is that you never know what transpires trying to solve difficult problems, both experimentally and theoretically.

I think are the most compelling reasons to continue funding research in particle physics is to discover more and to make humanity’s knowledge in the understanding of universe to be better and to find new technologies that we didn’t know they existed. It would also improve the discoveries and proves of string theory. The greatest reason for this is to make humanity better.

making the good for the next generations of people.

I don’t think we need a compelling reason to fund research – it is the nature of humanity that compells us to to explore, to seek patterns and certainty, to find answers. The money will appear as long as do the questions.

Finding new particles at higher energies.

What do you think are the most compelling reasons to continue funding research in particle physics? Another compelling reason is evident by those who keep
“thumbs down”-ing comments in these Discussions! Forums such as these are at the heart of societal and community scientific development. Must we leave all scientific exploration to the private military secrecies? NO

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

The science itself has appeal. Secondary are practical applications.

Better standard model

increasing knowledge is what science is for so more is better.

We must keep funding particle physics as if we could have had 10% more power in the machine, the Higgs would have been found a decade earlier. Only 10%. Food for thought I think

I think one reason sums everything up: To prove our theoretical knowledge. That reason is very controversial and very important, its what keeps physics going. Particle physics is a brilliant and highly successful part of physics that in some sense underlies everything. To prove our mathematical theories of the fundamentals of nature, such as gravitons, supersymmetry etcetera, we need these particle physics machines, the same applies for finding the fundamentals of cosmological mysteries such as dark matter as well as, of course, the specific particle physics of further understanding particle interactions and fundamental properties.

Continuing to fund research in particle physics is crucial for several compelling reasons. Firstly, it deepens our understanding of the fundamental building blocks of the universe, unraveling the mysteries of existence at the smallest scales. This knowledge not only satisfies our innate curiosity about the nature of reality but also has practical applications, driving advancements in technology and medicine. Secondly, particle physics plays a pivotal role in addressing broader questions about the origins and evolution of the cosmos, contributing valuable insights to cosmology. Additionally, investments in this field often lead to unexpected discoveries and breakthroughs with far-reaching implications. Finally, fostering international collaborations in particle physics promotes scientific cooperation and strengthens global networks, showcasing the power of collective human intellect in pushing the boundaries of knowledge. In essence, supporting particle physics research is an investment in both fundamental understanding and the potential for transformative technological and scientific advancements.

To answer all the questions about how we came to be.

Ladies & Gentlemen,

Some of the origins of how we came to be can be found in the end links of Prof. Sassylov’s Harvard EdX Super Earth course online.

One of these courses was discontinued early this year, but it used nobel awards early last century to explain how the elements have occurred, formed, and made the galaxy more complex than earlier designs.

Prof. Sassylov is a Prof. here at WSU, and thanks to the WSU staff for the efforts. Its nice to be immersed in science.
