Does anybody understand the following:
the energy required to produce black holes
in four dimensions would be much larger
(1019 GeV) than the energy that can be
achieved at the LHC (14 TeV).
Am I misunderstanding units? Isn't 1000 GeV only 1 TeV?
- ars 12y agoNot sure why it looks like that to you. It's 10 to the power of 19, not 1019.
- PhantomGremlin 12y agoAhh. Okay, mystery solved. I have my minimum font size set to 18. Because of that, Firefox renders all four digits at the same size. It also does not superscript the last two digits. I just checked, and it's the same in Safari. One could expect that, even if minimum font size is set, that the concept of "superscript" would survive, i.e. that the digits "19" would be rendered above the typographic baseline. One could expect that, but one would be wrong. :)
- mvgoogler 12y agoI read it as 10^19 GeV
