We might be living in a 'multiverse' - Times of India

Debarjun Saha | 16:02 |

WASHINGTON: A groundbreaking theory proposed 15 years ago by physicists that suggests the presence of a 'multiverse' or multiple universes may be correct, according to some US scientists.

If the theory proposed in 1997 by three University of Delaware physicists is true, then it could debunk some of the discoveries scientists were hoping to make at the Large Hadron Collider, the multi-billion-dollar particle accelerator in Geneva, Switzerland, where the famous " Higgs boson" was discovered, researchers said.

It would also suggest that we might be living in a "multiverse" - a universe that is much bigger than was once thought and in which the laws of physics take different forms in different places, according to an article in Scientific American. The article examines the "principle of naturalness", which has been thought to govern the size of the numbers in the laws of physics.
