The Higgs Field Opens a Passage Through a Black Hole ⚡ экспресс
The Higgs field is traditionally treated as a small perturbation around a constant vacuum value. However, in extreme gravity, such as near singularities, it is proposed to behave non-perturbatively: its dynamical coupling to spacetime generates antigravity and geodesic completeness, allowing passage through singularities. The standard union of the Standard Model and General Relativity, like most extensions, suffers from geodesic incompleteness and does not describe these effects. A refined, locally conformally symmetric version i(SM+GR) naturally includes them, preserving low-energy successes and predicting new phenomena: inside black holes (on both sides of the singularity) and in pre-Big Bang cosmology. This approach offers a fresh solution to the information paradox and a platform for scale-invariant generalizations, including quantum gravity.
The Higgs field is an invisible ocean that fills the cosmos. In its calm state, its “waters” merely slow particles down slightly, creating the effect of mass. But at the heart of a black hole, monstrous gravity turns the ocean into a furious whirlpool: it not only pulls in but also pushes out with tremendous force. Antigravity emerges, counteracting spacetime curvature and preventing it from collapsing into a point.
This is a prediction of the i(SM+GR) theory, which unites Einstein’s gravity with the Standard Model of particles. Instead of a singularity—a dead end that Hawking and Penrose considered the end of physics—space continues. The black hole becomes a tunnel through which one can pass and perhaps glimpse the era before the Big Bang. The most surprising part: for all this to work, the Higgs field flips the sign of its energy—from a slowing agent to an accelerator of space.
🎯 The Higgs field is responsible for only a small fraction of the mass of ordinary matter, but without it, electrons would have no mass, and atoms could not exist.
