>Hidden dimensions could explain where mass comes from
The idea of "hidden dimensions" that are real but too small to see
- cause they're all curled up or compactified into something tiny -
first shows up in mainstream physics back in the early 1920s, with
Kaluza-Klein theory.
These days, you really can't think about string theory without
that idea.
In 2025, there was also this paper by Günther Kletetschka - he's
a physics professor, though his main field is actually geophysics. He
proposed a model with three-dimensional time that predicts different
particle masses in a pretty striking way, and supposedly those could
even be tested experimentally. I still haven't seen any expert take a
solid stance on that one.
Anyway, there are tons of papers looking into setups with more
than the usual "1+3" dimensions.
