AI Thread Summary
Kaluza-Klein Theory has not been definitively proven by experimental results, with discussions suggesting it is unlikely to be true. Some proposals exist that evaluate existing data related to the theory, which can be found in academic literature. The conversation highlights a shift towards theories involving more dimensions, such as string theory, as alternatives to Kaluza-Klein. Understanding the theory requires familiarity with advanced literature, particularly regarding its five-dimensional framework. Overall, the consensus leans towards skepticism about the validity of Kaluza-Klein Theory based on current evidence.

Is there any experiment about Kaluza-Klein Theory ? If there is some experiments,
What are the results of them ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
There are theory proposals - with these they can evaluate existing data. For example, http://arxiv.org/abs/0710.3677

You can find lots more via Google Scholar; search for "Kaluza-Klein Theory experiments".

From what I've seen Kaluza-Klein theories are very unlikely to be true. Hence the move towards more dimensions, string theory, etc.
 
Thanks but I did'nt understand Can you describe it for me more simply
thanks
 
The analysis says that Kaluza-Klein theories are very unlikely.

If you are interested in this type of theory you should learn to read the literature.
 
Five dimension universe is describe the KK theory and it gives us a solution of KK.I want to ask If we accept five dimension we can say KK is true
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
