Interesting news.

GENEVA (Reuters) – Physicists probing the origins of the cosmos hope that next year they will turn up the first proofs of the existence of concepts long dear to science-fiction writers such as hidden worlds and extra dimensions.
And as their Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN near Geneva moves into high gear, they are talking increasingly of the "New Physics" on the horizon that could totally change current views of the universe and how it works.
"Parallel universes, unknown forms of matter, extra dimensions... These are not the stuff of cheap science fiction but very concrete physics theories that scientists are trying to confirm with the LHC and other experiments."

CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) is a scientific research organization that operates the largest particle physics laboratory in the world. Scientists at CERN conduct experiments using powerful particle accelerators to study the fundamental building blocks of matter and the forces that govern them.
CERN scientists did not directly discover a parallel universe. Rather, they conducted experiments using a large underground detector called ANITA, which detected high-energy particles called neutrinos coming from the Earth's surface. These particles may have originated from a parallel universe, according to some theories.
At this time, there is no concrete evidence for the existence of a parallel universe. The ANITA experiment has detected anomalous signals that may be explained by a parallel universe, but further research and confirmation is needed to support this theory.
If a parallel universe does exist, it would have significant implications for our understanding of the universe and could potentially revolutionize our understanding of physics. It could also provide insights into the origins of the universe and the nature of dark matter and dark energy.
CERN scientists will continue to conduct experiments and analyze data from detectors like ANITA to further investigate the possibility of a parallel universe. They will also collaborate with other scientists and institutions to develop new theories and experiments to explore this phenomenon further.
