If you can break a low of nature, was it really a law? Or just a suggestion.

Breaking the laws of physics usually carry a heavy penalty.

Not much of a law at all.

Is this what a future ion engine would be? A giant particle accellerator?

In Brookhaven Collider, Scientists Briefly Break a Law of Nature

yeah, sure they do, times. look for this one soon: in some black box in belgium, scientists prove there is no God but Obama.

Breaking a nature law? Its in vogue these days, as pol’s routinely break constitutional law.

and free their constituents — quarks and gluons.

NO! Don't free them! Please!

Leave it to the NewYorkSlimes to use the title or subtitle of an article to rewrite the facts of the article - even one on science.

The title "In Brookhaven Collider, Scientists Briefly Break a Law of Nature" is a freakish statement, because "nature" does not work by it's own "laws" being subject to being broken.

The factual statement, from which they derived the title, was:

"Physicists said Monday that they had whacked a tiny region of space with enough energy to briefly distort the laws of physics[bold added], providing the first laboratory demonstration of the kind of process that scientists suspect has shaped cosmic history."

That's "laws of physics"; the human made "laws" reflecting the state of human understanding of physics. Whatever "laws of nature" were exposed in the experiment, one can be sure they were not broken.

How did they measure the temperature in the reaction?

Perhaps the ‘telling right from left’ is related to the thingies having to align in linear time, to previous or future direction, a dilemma later ended by the now standing laws of ‘cooler Physics’? ... On a serious note: every particle no matter how small has a segment of time and an orientation to space ... as in a where when for eveything confined in spacetime.

"The departure from normal physics manifested itself in the apparent ability of the briefly freed quarks to tell right from left. That breaks one of the fundamental laws of nature, ... "

Very interesting! However, this was already demonstrated on a much larger scale on November 4, 2008...
