The workshop organizer from the university stated that this scientific experiment will be conducted in Europe next year, in collaboration with scientists from the United States, Japan, and Russia, to enhance scientific understanding of dark energy and dark matter.
Scientists will create a collision between particles similar to what occurred shortly after the Big Bang, within a fraction of a second, to investigate the standard model of matter.
The universe is believed to have formed after a massive explosion approximately 12 to 14 billion years ago and has been expanding ever since, driven by a mysterious energy known as dark energy. To date, scientists understand only about 4% of the universe’s dark energy and dark matter through the Big Bang recreation model.
The conference on the Galapagos Islands featured participation from scientists from various countries and regions around the world, including the United States, Japan, Europe, and Latin America.
