There was an article in this month's Scientific American and it mentioned that without the Higgs particle that atoms could be several inches across. This got me to thinking why we know the absolute size of something. Would something in a different world know if they were made up of larger atoms? While those atoms might be large compared to our scales, wouldn't a creature made up of larger atoms just have a different idea of what is small?
Is there anything in the equations for quantum mechanics that would change if we thought differently about the idea of size?
Just curious, thanks
