Not from nothing. From energy.

A Field is not nothing. It is a form of energy. You are actually turning energy into particles. In the reverse , that is turning particles into energy , you get nuclear power and nuclear bombs.

Yes, but can they make love out of nothing at all?

There is a type of supernova that occurs from gamma rays at just the right energy. The gamma rays get converted into an electron and anti-electron pair. This robs the star of the heat it needs to keep gravity from collapsing it. It implodes creating a shockwave and a counter reaction that blows the star to little bits.

But can it turn lead into gold?

The engine of creation. One way to worship is to figure out what God has done.

Does this mean there’s a chance for me to experience a holo-suite like on Star Trek? Not Meta, but a real experience.

Biden is the opposite, he creates nothing out of something all the time.

This article seems to be lacking in details.

The author's bio:

Joshua Hawkins fell in love with writing and technology at a young age. Eventually he decided to combine the two and started writing about video games, the latest tech, and all the cool gadgets he could find. Whenever he isn’t busy writing about tech or gadgets, he can usually be found enjoying a new world in a video game, or tinkering with something on his computer.

Hardly surprising that the article is as thoroughly jacked up as most of the comments here ...

Bwa ha ha ha.

Such illiterate or con men weasels

“,researchers.......... created strong enough electric fields ..........in their laboratory to level the unique properties of a material known as graphene.

.......With these fields.... ( that they created/manufactored with something not nothing)...........................................................

.
the researchers were able to enable the...... spontaneous (adjective.
performed or occurring as a result of a sudden inner impulse or inclination and ...........without premeditation ........or............................ external stimulus. )
.
......- ? Like magnetic fields ? ........

creation of particle-antiparticle pairs....................................... from nothing at all...( except the magnetic fields consisting of particles they created with lots of equipment.

/\

Typical Bait and switch

They used magnetic fields to manufactor/ create ,, it wasn’t from nothing.

And it sure wasn’t “ spontaneous” , unless they have changed THAT definition , now was it ?

Spit

Matter can neither be created or destroyed

it’s the law

Law of conservation of matter

This is the actual article describing the physics and the experiments:

https://bigthink.com/starts-with-a-bang/something-from-nothing/

Not going to pretend I completely understood the article or it’s ramifications (if any). After all, my undergraduate degree was in History.

However, I am skeptical that claims arising from experimental results (achieved in a laboratory after a great deal of expertise, equipment, and effort) can be applied to the infinitely unconstrained space that is the Universe and the almost perfect vacuum that is the end state of the heat death of said Universe. (Coming in approximately 100 trillion years!! Mark your calendars!)

Sarcasm aside, there is also the matter of residue.

“Something” implies an independent physical esistence. I may have missed it, but I don’t recall the article mentioning a graphene residue after the experiment was shut down or providing any photographs of the physical substance. Of course, this would be the most valuable graphene in the world due to it’s provenance. At one atom thickness, the graphene might be difficult to find. However, a claim of this magnitude depends on having indisputable tangible evidence.

So, where is the “something?”

This just sounds like Hawking Radiation.

A virtual particle pair appears out of nothing (quantum mechanically happens all the time) and instead of immediately recombining, they are being held apart by the magnetic field.

It’s simple(SIMPLE?!?!?!?) Quantum Mechanics.
