Faster than light and way smaller than electrons

In summary, the hypothesis that matter exists made of particles with million times less mass than electrons and million times faster than light and not interacting with known forms of matter or waves in our universe cannot be disproved due to its lack of physical implications and value. Additionally, the existence of unicorns, who travel faster than light, would disprove this hypothesis as these particles would be lethal to them.

how can this hypothesis be disproved that matter exists made of particles having million times less mass than electrons and million times faster than light and not interacting with the the matter or waves we know of making a universe surrounding our universe

A hypothesis with no physical implications cannot be disproved...and also has no value.

Are these particles lethal to unicorns? If so we need only carry out proper autopsies on dead unicorns. (Animal welfare organisations and the Semantic Security Services would prevent us doing these on live ones.)

unicorns travel faster than light, so these particles would be lethal to them

the existence of unicorns therefore conclusively disproves the existence of such particles :smile:

Enough of this nonsense, Last I checked we do not allow speculation on this site.

Locked.
 

1. What is faster than light and way smaller than electrons?

The concept of something being faster than light and smaller than electrons refers to particles that travel at speeds faster than the speed of light, which is approximately 186,282 miles per second, and have a smaller size than electrons, which are one of the smallest known particles.

2. Is it possible for something to be faster than light and smaller than electrons?

According to the laws of physics, it is currently not possible for something to be faster than the speed of light and smaller than electrons. This is because anything that travels faster than the speed of light would violate the theory of relativity, and particles smaller than electrons have not been discovered or proven to exist.

3. Are there any particles that are known to be faster than light and smaller than electrons?

As of now, there are no known particles that are faster than light and smaller than electrons. Scientists are continuously researching and studying particles to better understand their properties and behavior, but no particles with these specific characteristics have been discovered.

4. How does the concept of something being faster than light and smaller than electrons relate to space travel?

The idea of faster-than-light travel and extremely small particles is often explored in science fiction and theories about space travel. However, due to the limitations of our current understanding of physics, it is not currently possible to travel faster than light or utilize particles that are smaller than electrons for space travel.

5. What are some potential implications of discovering particles that are faster than light and smaller than electrons?

If particles that are faster than light and smaller than electrons were to be discovered, it could potentially revolutionize our understanding of physics and lead to new technologies and advancements. It could also challenge many of the existing theories and laws of physics, prompting further research and exploration in this field.
