A recent proposal by scientists from Seoul National University and Ewha Women’s University suggests that the newly discovered ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) may be the elusive Electroweak Monopole. This groundbreaking assumption, published in Physical Bletter B, has the potential to significantly promote our understanding of particle physics and the fundamental forces of the universe.
Led by Professor Yongmin Cho and Dr. Franklin Cho, the study is based on the latest detection of the Telescope Array Group (TAG), which targets UHECR with extraordinary energy levels. This detection, as well as earlier discoveries, challenge existing particle physics theories because the observed energy exceeds theoretical possibilities. The obvious origin of UHECR comes from local voids, where few known astronomical objects are found in this area, adding to the mystery and conspiracy of this discovery. For these reasons, UHECR particles are called “Oh, my God particle” or “amaterasu (Supreme Goddess in Japanese mythology) particles”.
“Our most important conclusion is that the UHECR observed in the telescope array may be the residual electric-type monopole generated in the early universe during the transition period of the Electroweak phase,” said Professor Cho. This hypothesis provides a sensation for the origin of these extraordinary energy particles. Convincing explanation.
The prediction will have several unique characteristics that make it a major candidate for UHECR. Unlike protons that strongly interact with the cosmic microwave background, electric unipolar retains its energy and can travel huge distances without a large amount of energy loss. The researchers believe that the magnetic charge of the electric eak monopole and its interaction with the Atractylodes magnetic field can explain the observed UHECR energy.
To confirm this hypothesis, the researchers proposed to enhance TA experiments using a superconducting quantum interference device (squid) to measure the magnetic force of detected UHECR particles. This direct measurement will provide vital evidence to support the presence of electronic monoholes.
The significance of discovering electric monopole is not just to explain UHECR. It will serve as a key test of the standard model of particle physics, verifying its predictions of electromagnetic unity and weak force unity. Furthermore, motorized power sheets may have profound implications for cosmology, which may explain the origins of the intercosmic magnetic fields, dark matter and large-scale structures of the universe.
Professor Cho and colleagues stressed the importance of further experimental and theoretical work to explore the characteristics and implications of Electroweak unipolar. The discovery of these particles will mark a milestone in our search for understanding the most fundamental building blocks of the universe.
