What Equations Are Relevant for a Micro Singularity in Euclidean Space Time?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the hypothetical scenario of a mini black hole produced by the LHC leading to a micro singularity in Euclidean space-time. Participants explore the relevant equations and factors that might apply to this situation, considering both theoretical implications and speculative outcomes.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant proposes that if a mini black hole were produced, it would evaporate almost instantaneously.
  • Another participant questions the scenario where the black hole does not evaporate and suggests considering the effects on an object, such as a baseball, thrown into it.
  • A different viewpoint suggests that the question itself may be fundamentally unanswerable, as it involves disregarding established laws of physics.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the implications of a mini black hole's existence and its potential interactions, indicating that multiple competing perspectives remain without consensus.

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes assumptions about the behavior of mini black holes and the nature of singularities, which are not fully explored or defined, leaving some aspects unresolved.

What if the LHC produced a mini black hole and as a result a micro singularity was produced. If you were using Euclidean space time what equations and factors do you think would be most relevant?

It would evaporate in pretty much the same instant it was formed
 
But what if it didn't evaporate and instead lasted for say 5 seconds and you threw a baseball in it. What happens to the baseball?

This question is "What do the laws of physics say when we disregard the laws of physics" and as such has no answer.
