The particle is to all intents a point like object so doesn't have a length to contract, in the case of an object with length then yes both frames see the other as contracted.

Special relativty is completely self conistent in a mathematical view point. From a physical one it can get confusing I would suggest looking up the ladder "parradox" as one such example.

One way to simplify matters is to write down all of the space-time cooridinates of events in you problem in one frame, then peform lorentz boosts to get the result in the other frame and measure lengths etc in that frame rather than applying the time dilation and length contraction formulae blindly

The particle would not see its own time-dilation so to speak, in the particles rest frame it still decays very quickly and the length contraction then allows it to travel further. From the lab frame the particle is time dilated so decays slowly but the lab equipment is not length contracted in that frame so there are no length contraction effects.

Also with particle accelerators it is very much the energy of the collision that matters, as the particles velocity increases pushing it with more energy actually only increases the speed by a very little amount since it can nevery be greater than c, you can however keep increasing the energy of the particle.

Umm well kind of, its an experiment to confirm the existence of the higgs if it does exist and to probe the physics of electroweak symmetry breaking (i.e find whatever else is causing the higgs mechanism) if it doesn't. I mean determining that the existence of a higgs particle is an accurate theory is the same as determining its existence give or take some philisophical arguments about existance.

What is the difference between a mathematical concept representing or reflecting something physical and a mathematical concept that is used as a tool in a physical model?

Seems to me if you're using them in your physical theory then they have as much of a physical role (I'm not saying that they have to correspond to some observable quantity though) as say a symmetry group or any other mathematical object you use.

If you speech isn't open and unbounded does that make it compact?

Its well known that the strong force is much stronger than the electromagnetic interaction it also has a much better symmetry group SU(3) which is way cooler than U(1) electromagnetism isn't even special!!!

Once you include the strong force into your calculations its obvious that the universe is at least 100x older than current cosmological predictions and you dont even need the higgs or neutrinos in the model since these havn't really been detected I mean you've never seen one have you?

There's a reason that the strong force is allways ignored, its because it doesn't fit with a passage in the Koran which states that the standard model should contain only symmetries with fewer than 8 generators because the "physics community" is secretly run by an organisation bent on keeping this truth from us they completely ignore the strong force claiming that it doesn't effect gallaxy formation and that quarks are confined when really jesus was made of quarks therefor the great flood happened!!

How is the overwhelming evidence for dark matter gathered in the last few decades ignoring the last 60 years?

Its not like there hasn't been plenty of research into general relativity and gravity in the last 60 years but as far as I know general relativity is still the best model for gravity with some serious work to be done to build a quantum theory of gravity.

Seriously? darkmatter has been theoriticaly predicted and experimentaly detected in three observations at three largely different scales. Your two options with the observation is to change newtowns and einsteins laws of gravitation so that they fit these results and get left with seriously fudged laws of gravity (I'm not even sure if anyone managed to do this in a consistent way) or you infer the pressence of dark matter, which given our understanding of particle physics is highly plausable that such matter can exist and some of our best new theories to solve other problems in physics even go on to predict such a particle.

If you want to troll about how "mainstream science" is like some kind of cult pick an area of research that is'nt backed up with excellent experimental observation.

Not decay annihilation, the WIMP has to be stable and so not decay otherwise we'd have none left by now. What they are hoping to detect is when two WIMPs annihilate and form a ??????? that then decays and emits the radiation they are detecting.

Well that's fine from your american point of view, globaly though it is a good thing. The difference here is that from an exterior objective point of view it makes sense that two people having a job is better than one however nobody is really in that position the world works by looking out for your own first which means that in reality one american is more important than two foreigners (if you're american). This is just selfishness and self preservation but its hardly going to go away.

The problem comes when the people running their companies decide they actually care about an even smaller group of people (themsleves) even more than they do about their neighbours and that they can make more money by out sourcing at the expense of their country. Really though the logic as to why outsourcing for them is a good thing is the same as why its a bad thing for you so complaining that people need to look after themselves actually just leads to more outsourcing.

But to be historically acurate he'd have to go as spock from the past rather than the future so would end up looking like he did in city on the edge of forever.

If it was just a placebo effect then why bother with the pot at all there would be much easier ways to administer it so really if it's being perscribed its almost certainly doing better than placebo in trials.

As for reviewing it medicinal pot unlike a pill like vicodin is not allways going to be the same, it will come in different strengths, taste different, give different highs (side effects I guess) and this can not and is not tested and controlled in the same way that every vicodin pill is exactly the same. So in that respect reviewing is useful.
