Pattern recognition problems in high energy physics are notably different from traditional machine learning applications computer vision. Reconstruction algorithms identify and measure the kinematic properties of particles produced collisions recorded with complex detector systems.

We study the impact of ambient fluid on evolution collapsing false vacuum bubbles by simulating dynamics a coupled bubble-particle system. A significant increase in mass particles across bubble wall leads to buildup those inside bubble. show that backreaction slows or even reverses collapse. Consequently, if true become heavier than vacuum, particle-wall interactions always decrease compactness can reach, making their collapse black holes less likely.
