Zarnaxus Posted December 4, 2010 Posted December 4, 2010 Over readings, I have "stumbled" across a few very strange sounding types of matter and energy, and decided to create a topic dedicated to the differentiation and explanation to these exotic theoretical forms of matter. I will explain what i am already familiar with, and will leave it to the real experts on this site to possibly build/correct my information. Here are a few forms of exotic matter i have come in contact with: NOTE: I don't know what im talking about. I would just like smarter people to correct my misconceptions and to build on my understanding. Dark Matter: matter that is strewn throughout the universe. Larger than regular particles? hard to ... observe? weakly interacting i believe. called WIMPS weakly interactive massive particles. i think? Dark Energy: To my understanding. There is not a lot of information about dark energy. It is the energy that is driving the acceleration in the expansion of the universe. Thats pretty much all i know. Negative Matter: Matter that has negative mass and falls up against gravity. Because of this, it would probably exist out in the outest reaches of nothingness in the universe. Theoretical at the moment. Negative Energy: Like regular energy except literally negative amounts of it. Theretically used with black holes to create wormholes? Also Theoretical at the moment. Antimatter: matter that has the opposite charge of regular matter. Has been created in the lab! er... particle accelerators? Theoretically, it's regular matter traveling backward in time?? Tachyons: Has imaginary mass??? can't go beneath the speed of light??? WTF hahahaha Sparticles: something to do with string theory. Theoretically, we have 3 generations of particles or something. The regular version, the antimatter version??, and the sparticle version?? I believe that sparticles are the higher spins of regular matter or something like that. A higher vibration of the superstring?? As you can see, I need a lot of help with understanding these concepts. Do you think there are negative antitachyons?? haha... or even... dark negative anti-Stachyons?? Do you think that we could be made up of antimatter and the antimatter that we know as antimatter is actually the regular matter that we think we are? The question is.... does it matter or antimatter? teehee
