Can Space-Time Differ for Ionized Fuel in a Magnetic Field Near Light Speed?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion confirms that space-time does not differ for ionized fuel moving near the speed of light within a magnetic field, as posed in the title question. Participants unanimously agree that virtual particles are not actual particles and do not exhibit linear motion; they serve merely as mathematical tools in calculations. Additionally, it is established that magnets do not emit particles, and magnetic fields cannot be directed like lasers to create travel paths. The consensus emphasizes the need for clarity in questioning to facilitate better discussions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of particle physics concepts, particularly virtual particles
  • Familiarity with the principles of magnetic fields and their properties
  • Basic knowledge of space-time theory and relativistic physics
  • Experience with particle accelerators and their operational mechanics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the role of virtual particles in quantum field theory
  • Study the behavior of magnetic fields in particle accelerators
  • Explore the implications of relativistic speeds on matter and energy
  • Learn about the mathematical frameworks used in particle physics calculations
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for physicists, students of particle physics, and anyone interested in the interactions of magnetic fields with high-speed particles in theoretical and experimental contexts.

Summary: Can a particle accelerator accelerate gaseous fuel?

Does space-time differ for detonating ionized fuel moving near the speed of light within a magnetic field such as a particle accelerator?

The answers to all three questions (the one in the title and the two in the post) are “no”.

@Nonametheone In the future please ask one question at a time and give folks some time to answer before posting a new unrelated question.

Should I delete this question?
 
Yes but I still think virtual particles can have linear motion without a receiver. I will read more of it soon. I still have yet to learn equations.

Virtual particles don't move. They're bookkeeping devices for certain calculations which mathematically (!) look like particles in certain ways.

Then what are the particles that a magnet emits?

There is no particles that magnet emits.

So what is a magnet emitting?

Nothing. Magnetic or electromagnetic field is just there, it's not emitted in the form of particles.

Summary: Can a magnetic field be directed like or with in laser or beam to create a fine path to travel upon?

Does space time differ for matter with magnetic properties moving within a magnetic field in a particle accelerator?
Magnetic field can't be directed as a path, field created will be around the magnetic material.
