Glennys Farrar et al. from the Auger Observatory report today the correlation between AGNs and the UHECR (below, Galaxies Correlating with Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays). Lee Smolin has been proposing since the early nineties of last century a correlation between the number of black holes and the parameters of the standard model of elementary particles.
To the extent that these ideas are scientific, there must be a way to corrleate this set of ideas.
Farrar argues that the AGNs in the Virgo cluster are not energetic enough to send our way the particles of highest energies ever detected on Earth.
What changes in the parameters of the standard model could produce less black holes and less cosmic rays from the Virgo cluster?
