But the trouble is that the cable must have been immersed in the 77K (about -196 ℃) into liquid nitrogen. Therefore, if you want to set up such a cable, at intervals of one kilometer or so to install pumps and cooling equipment, greatly increasing the cost of superconducting cables and complexity of the program.

extra dimensions may also be exposed to traces of other ways. If the LHC create a black hole of the sub atomic scale, we can directly prove that extra dimensions exist, because the conventional three-dimensional space, gravity in such a small scale, extremely weak and can not produce black holes. Since geometric reasons, the extra dimensions may enhance the action of gravity, electromagnetic force may also change the other basic forces in the small scale, the mode of action. Extra dimensions also determine how to play the role of supersymmetry, which may be in the quality and other properties of particles left a unique imprint. In addition to LHC, measuring gravitational strength, observing the orbit of black holes or exploding stars, and other means, may also help scientists find traces of extra dimensions.

in modern physics theory, extra dimensions is the cornerstone of the main theories of supersymmetry (supersymmetry) concept It attempts to integrate different types of particles uniform in a big family. To achieve this unity, supersymmetry requires a total of 10 dimensions of space.
