Physicists point out that "wormholes" are not shortcuts for traveling in the universe – BBC News BBC Thai

The hope of scientists seeking to use a "wormhole" or a short path caused by a space-time folding in order to travel through space There must be a broken dream. When a new generation of physicists discovered that the wormhole was just "indirect", it was not a shortcut to the universe.

At the meeting of the American Physics Association (APS) in mid-April A team of physicists from many leading universities in the United States, led by Dr. Daniel Jefferson of Harvard University Present the latest theoretical research that indicate The journey through the wormhole, as predicted by Einstein's theory of general relativity Can actually happen But the road may not be a straight line As a result, it is slow and loses more than time as the methods of moving in space.

Dr. Jafferis's team tested the results. When we leave a particle of light or a photon of a particle Cross a wormhole that connects two black holes.

Dr. Jafferie Brain said This wormhole is derived from "Teleport" or moving state information from one particle from one black hole to another. What can happen because the two black holes have "quantum entanglement" between them

The pair of particles intertwined in the black hole React together as soon as the change will occur with a particular particle Although the two black holes are billions of years away But the connection path or the wormhole caused by this quantum entanglement can be twisted, nonlinear, and can last longer than normal in space.

However, the new information presented by Dr. Jafferis at S will be useful for the development of knowledge in quantum mechanics in the future What can be used as a basis for the development of quantum theory of gravity that can explain the relationship between the fundamental forces of quantum mechanics and gravity And the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity are not in conflict

"We found that we could use the vortex to travel, and we expect the information in the black hole to be able to be separated by this channel, which will allow the observer to be outside the black hole. to know what it contains, "said Dr. Jafferis.
