panel of experts, in the article \u201cReview of Speculative Disaster Scenarios at RHIC\u201d in Reviews of Modern Physics, rules out that the experiments being conducted at Brookhaven National Labs on Long Island could trigger the destruction of the planet (in fact, the creation of a drop of strange matter, composed of \u201cstrange\u201d quarks, with a negative electrical charge would engulf an atomic nucleus, releasing energy and emitting a positron, thus returning to a negative charge and engulfing another nucleus and so on until it devours the entire planet in a few seconds; the phenomenon is explained by the fact that the highly dense ued quarks occupy increasingly higher energy levels until they exceed the rest mass of the s quark, at which point it becomes advantageous for the system to transform the ued quarks into s quarks through the weak force, decreasing the energy of the system; the point is that at Brookhaven only drops of strange matter with a positive charge can be produced).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
