Talk:Unparticle physics

Experiments?
The sentence "LHC will begin probing a higher energy frontier in 2009" is clearly outdated. Is there any experimental progress in the field ever since? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.125.153.167 (talk) 01:29, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Not fringe
Please do not delete unmatter. It is not fringe science. It was published in The Telegraph, presented at CalTech in 2010, cited in the AMS conference, included in Neil Sloane's Encyclopedia of Integers, in Hadronic Journal, and cited in SLAC SPIRES and INSPIRE sites, etc.:

 * Indepedently of whether it is fringe science or not, any mention of Smarandache's work should be based on an independent third-party source. However, all these papers you mention are his own. The Telegraph article you link to is not concerned with Smarandache's work. Finally, AFAIK anyone can submit anything to the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, so that doesn't count either. - Saibod (talk) 20:37, 28 August 2011 (UTC)


 * One need look no farther than http://arxiv.org/find/all/1/all:+unparticle/0/1/0/all/0/1 to see that this is indeed a valid field of study, with interesting things to say. Agree with non-fringe, but an expert does need to work on the article to improve it. - Flying hazard (talk) 18:24, 7 December 2011 (UTC)


 * The papers you link to are about the subject matter of the article. What we are discussing here is Smarandache's "theory" of unmatter, which is probably not discussed in any of these serious research papers. - Saibod (talk) 10:49, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

Censorship
It looks like censorship. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.222.226.130 (talk) 21:57, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Real examples of unmatter
The pionium, positronium and protonium are unmatter because the pionium is formed by a π+ and π- mesons, the positronium is formed by an antielectron (positron) and an electron in a semi-stable arrangement, the protonium is formed by a proton and an antiproton also semi-stable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.8.210.24 (talk) 03:18, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

gravity
does this tackle the problem of gravity ? or like the standard model fails to explain it. if it does explain it then how? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.26.248.232 (talk) 17:56, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
