If two (neutral) objects were only slightly separated along that dimension, no matter how compact it is, wouldn't they be able to move through each other as seen from our perspective (as in, occupy the same position in the usual three dimensions at the same time, because they are separated along that additional spatial dimension)?
- simiones 6y agoOnly if the objects themselves are really small along that extra dimension relative to that extra dimension - if they occupy most of the dimension, they would "bump into each other" anyway.
- cutemonster 6y agoMakes me think of quantum tunneling
- pas 6y agoQuantum stuff can already move through each other. (Bosons easily, fermions have the Pauli exclusion principle.)
- amelius 6y agoNot if the strong nuclear force extends significantly beyond the small dimension.
