Susskind on black hole in collider experiment

[blackfork]

In a video I watched, which I can't find now, Leonard Susskind briefly mentions something about scientists recently creating what seemed to be a black hole in a collider (not the LHC). He said that the scientists needed to use string theory and extra dimensions to make sense of it. Something like that. He didn't seem to want to jump the gun about it or give too much info, that perhaps it hadn't been confirmed or something like that.

Can anyone point me in the right direction about this? I'd like to find out more about the experiment in question, and maybe figure out which video that was.

Thanks.

Maybe "Solving quantum field theories via curved spacetimes" by Klebanov and Maldacena, accessible from http://motls.blogspot.com/2009/01/klebanov-and-maldacena-about-hyperbolic.html

"Thermodynamic and transport properties of a strongly coupled QFT are related to properties of the black hole geometry. ... RHIC is believed to have produced a new state of matter, which was originally dubbed the quark–gluon plasma. Experiments at RHIC established that the matter behaves more like a liquid than a plasma because its viscosity is much smaller than had been expected. Interestingly, when the gauge/gravity duality is applicable, it also predicts a low value for the viscosity."

I can assure you that creating a black hole in a collider is not a simple or easy task. It requires a deep understanding of the laws of physics and cutting-edge technology. While I cannot confirm or deny the existence of this experiment without more information, I can say that it is an exciting and intriguing concept that could potentially provide valuable insights into the nature of black holes and the universe.

If you are interested in learning more about this experiment, I suggest looking into the work of Leonard Susskind and his colleagues, who are leaders in the field of string theory and extra dimensions. Additionally, you may want to search for recent scientific papers or news articles on the topic, as they may provide more information and insights into the experiment. Keep in mind that scientific breakthroughs often take time to be confirmed and fully understood, so it is important to approach any information with a critical and open mind.

In the meantime, I would encourage you to continue to explore and learn about the fascinating world of theoretical physics. Who knows, you may even become a part of the next groundbreaking experiment!
