Scientists create matter from nothing in groundbreaking experiment

[We Never Know]

Are they creating matter from energy, or from nothing?

"There are many theories on how to create matter from nothing – especially as quantum physicists have tried to better understand the Big Bang and what could have caused it. We know that colliding two particles in empty space can sometimes cause additional particles to emerge. There are even theories that a strong enough electromagnetic field could create matter and antimatter out of nothing itself.

But, managing to do any of these things has always seemed impossible. Still, that hasn’t stopped scientists from trying, and now, that research seems to have paid off. As Big Think reports, in early 2022, a group of researchers created strong enough electric fields in their laboratory to level the unique properties of a material known as graphene.

With these fields, the researchers were able to enable the spontaneous creation of particle-antiparticle pairs from nothing at all. This proved that creating matter from nothing is indeed possible, a theory first proposed by Julian Schwinger, one of the founders of quantum field theory. And with that knowledge, we can hopefully better understand how the universe makes something from nothing.

When reading any kind of science reporting, news, or summary like this, it's always a good idea to find the original research paper. Firstly, because better sources for more reliable information tend to include the full citation at the bottom of the article (or barring this, will at least contain a link, possibly among several others, to the original research paper). It's by no means a guarantee of any kind if accuracy or guard against pure drivel, but the harder a popular science source makes it to find the original research, the more skeptical you should be. In particular, be wary of any science news from sources like the OP's link that can't be bothered to actually do more than summarize an already oversimplified popular science article written elsewhere.
In this case, if you read through the OP's source and follow the link in it to Big Think article it summarizes, you'll find a link to the Science paper both the OP's source and the Big Think article are based on:
Out-of-equilibrium criticalities in graphene superlattices

Stephen Hawking hypothesized that Black Holes could become so dense that they could become nothingness. The Black Hole could 'pop' out of existence. (paraphrased)..In a conversation with @ChristineM, she told me that there is also a hypothesis that as our Universe expands it creates space into which it can expand. I will check back with her on that, when possible.

Science uses machines as from his thesis....a conjured underground mass status first.

As place in space law is cold empty nothing pressure. Where earth mass melt became a seam of held metal on a plane. Machines exact place.

Above is earths other held natural layered mass.

Ignored position mass bonded in cosmic law above. Natural.

So when they lie and put cold gas into machine taken out of mass and not co gained as Christ above as it is in law space womb.

Earths mass collapses as their fake reflected idea a human man scientist invented masses pressure to bind it out of a cold gas that above has space sun dusts in it naturally. Aware is first before thesis.

Your dusts removed to get the gas ignored.

As reflection is one law beyond in cosmos as correct position. Natural.

Why plates carpenter collapse into sin...sink hole. And ground can suddenly go boom loss fusion.....
And sink into Indentations.

The day also will come (hopefully) when we understand how matter is created and how it disappears again - i.e., to understand the riddle of existence and non-existence - but not in my life. I leave it for future generations.

According to the paper that Oldoinyo Lengai ( ) posted, I don't think they've done that at all. They seem to have created electron/hole pairs in the conduction band of graphite, or maybe even in the valence band, I'm not sure, by a process described as analogous to Schwinger pair-production. I'm not a solid state physicist so I can't follow all of it, admittedly.

This looks like more breathless journos, looking for a clickbaity headline, to me.

Light is an immaculate gas first.

As where a day begins.

So Information says no you won't ever know where matter came from. And it disappears as a sun nuclear is a consuming mass.

The suns consuming of earth was stopped by infinity space expanse law. Voided huge suck upon heat.

Man a dimwitted liar simply began it again himself. Consuming.

Man should say as I can float in space gases clear must be present until they aren't.

Men of science.

Reviewed past memory says expansive used thinking

Yet two places memory now meet back at.

v opened .

Equals was to take man's scientific nuclear energy fuel. Put it into a rocket. His thought from before to his thoughts gained now looking back.

Let it explode in his human vision in nature with life burn up oxygen...kill family.

About humans inability to breathe oxygen.

As in human experiment burnt around me I could not breathe. Studied. Agreed. Discussed.

Proven. Yes it's surely Satanists today theorising for nature's destruction as your agreement

Seeing men of science need it to be stated as their evil science language symbols before they agreed they are wrong.

Indeed, well researached

So, matter brings itself into existence.

Not by itself it doesn't, and obviously they didn't start with nothing.

 

[Yerda]

Where did they get nothing from?

 

[The Hammer]

Where did they get nothing from?

An empty vacuum has nothing in it. So maybe a vacuum chamber.

 

[Revoltingest]

Where did they get nothing from?

Between the ears of someone who shall remain nameless.

 

[Twilight Hue]

So, matter brings itself into existence.

I think its more like the horizon where we simply cannot see things any smaller, so it only registers as being nothing that meets the criteria of producing something out of 'nothing'.

Let there be light!!!

 

[Yerda]

An empty vacuum has nothing in it. So maybe a vacuum chamber.

The vacuum is full of spacetime, fields, virtual particles and other spicy wotsits. Lots of somethings but no nothings.

Maybe maybe. Not sure if I consider massless energy "nothing" either. But it's close.

By your definition there is no "nothing" anywhere.

Quarks pop in and out of existence and are a type of particle that constitute matter.
