Quirks and strings attached as the ultimate communication and acceleration devices

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel communication and acceleration method using hypothetical particles called Quirks, which can connect distant points via strings, enabling efficient long-distance communication and high-energy collisions.

Contribution

It introduces a new theoretical framework where Quirks enable long-distance communication and high-energy particle collisions through string connections.

Findings

Quirks can be used for long-distance communication via string vibrations.

Quirks can facilitate collisions at extremely high energies.

The proposed method relies on hypothetical particles and new gauge interactions.

Abstract

We point out that if a certain variant of "Quirks", particles that carry ordinary color and some other color' exist, then we can have a completely novel and efficient mode of long distance communications and of acceleration to very high energies. For very low scale $\Lambda'$ the scale of the new gauge group in the theory, and associated string tension of the new color' the Quirks can be captured in ordinary materials. Having then the Quirk Q' and anti-Quirk $\bar{Q}'$ in two separate piezoelectric crystals at arbitrarily far out points A and B allows Alice and Bob at these locations to communicate by generating transverse waves along the connecting color' string. Also releasing the Quirks allows them to collide at extremely high energies.
