RHIC: The Perfect Liquid

Evidence to date suggests that gold-gold collisions the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven are indeed creating a new state of hot, dense matter, but one quite different and even more remarkable than had been predicted. Instead of behaving like a gas of free quarks and gluons, as was expected, the matter created in RHIC's heavy ion collisions appears to be more like a "perfect" liquid.

does no one care for science... put down your bibles and learn!.. oh and YAY the LHC is about to launch in an hour!!!

[thriceplowedfield]

wow, nobody's talkng about this. i guess my next and most pressing question is have we been rhic rolled? did the particles decay, or not? anyone know?

Furthermore, Your spiritual essence is borrowed conscious energy from existence and the God Energy. When your physical vessel can no longer support your spiritual energy, your spiritual energy is collected, dissected, and reincorporated to the Singularity of Existence in order to apply the new mutation of energy your life comprised and applied to the newest layers of the dimensional fabric carrying life.

God is not an entity.. its an ENERGY. Very likely conscious and aware, all knowing, seeing, and creating... but the difference is, you and me are just one of countless other living creations out there trying to put an arrogant spin on the supreme being. God doesnt make commandments, God makes EXISTENCE... thats all.. it doesnt appear to prophets or answer fucking prayers. If existence needs you to die in order to evolve, well then by God youre gonna fucking DIE. Religion is FICTION.

BIBLES?? Who cares about GOD... What the hell is wrong with scientists? They must really like the money! I hope they have created a way to destroy black holes! I like how they refer to plasma as perfect liquid, that will burn through anything and kill us all! We already have a rail gun, and nuclear bombs, what can't we destroy? Now even the Universe is in danger!

@JayArpeggios who said we cant foolow religion and study science at the same time?

@elEMundz it means at high temperatures, the strong nuclear force falls to almost 0. this might not mean a lot to some people, but it should help to create a theory which will describe how strong, weak nuclear, electromagnetism and gravity are all connected. this is what quantum mechanics is about

[JOHNNYWADTON]

@RichGilly I would perhaps favor more something harder, maybe Tequila or Mezcal, no?

[elEMundz]

what does it mean?

[alexpx27]

someone i know learned an interesting theory similar to this from DMT.

[RichGilly]

What liquor would I mix this with?

I'm thinking a nice blended whiskey. Opinions?
