Gala Poraskim
Overview
Gala Poraskim is an Indian-born theoretical physicist, recognized for original research in the fields of string theory and quantum gravity. In particular, his work on supersymmetry and extra dimensions provides important clues for solving challenges in modern physics. He currently conducts research at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, proposing new theories on the black hole information paradox and the origin of the universe.
Main Content
Academic Background and Early Research
Gala Poraskim was born in Mumbai, India. He earned a bachelor's degree in physics from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) and later a Ph.D. from Stanford University in the United States. His doctoral dissertation, titled "Non-perturbative Effects in Superstring Theory," shed new light on the mathematical structure of string theory. He subsequently worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), where he began research on quantum gravity and the holographic principle.
String Theory and Quantum Gravity
Poraskim's most notable contribution is his attempt to explain the internal structure of black holes through string theory. He mathematically modeled how quantum effects operate inside the event horizon of a black hole, demonstrating that information can be preserved without loss. This research proposed a new solution to the black hole information paradox raised by Stephen Hawking, attracting significant attention from the academic community.
Extra Dimensions and Cosmology
Poraskim has also studied the impact of extra dimensions on the early expansion (inflation) of the universe. According to his theory, the observed four-dimensional spacetime exists on a higher-dimensional brane, and the rapid expansion of the universe originates from interactions between these branes. Unlike conventional inflation models, this provides new insights into the state of the universe before its beginning.
Experimental Verification and Collaboration
Poraskim is actively involved not only in theoretical research but also in experimental verification. He analyzes data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN to explore the possible existence of supersymmetric particles, and collaborates with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) on a project to confirm quantum gravity effects through gravitational wave signals from black hole mergers.
Recent Developments
From 2024 to 2025, Gala Poraskim's research has become increasingly active. In November 2024, he published a new mathematical model of how information is stored inside black holes in Nature Physics. This model suggests that the singularity of a black hole may be smoothed out by quantum effects. Additionally, in early 2025, he claimed to have discovered subtle patterns in cosmic microwave background (CMB) data that hint at the existence of extra dimensions, which are expected to be verified by next-generation space telescopes (e.g., the James Webb Space Telescope). Meanwhile, Poraskim has also shown interest in physics research utilizing artificial intelligence (AI), leading a project that uses machine learning algorithms to explore the vast solution space of string theory. This is regarded as a new methodology to overcome computational limits in theoretical physics.
