Its a big microscope, to see deeper into the atom you need to big bigger "eyepieces". Thats all the LHC is, a big microscope. |
|
By:
No it isn't a microscope.It's a particle smasher which is attempting to smash particles together at such force that it recreates the big bang(in minature)and ,hopefully ,finds the Higgs Boson particle otherwise known as the God particle.

smash those particles to f uck i say

By:
hmmmm, I'm trying to simplify things.
It is to see deeper into the atom. 100 years ago atoms were new and thought indivisible, now it seems there are smaller and smaller parts of an atom that need exploring. The god particle wasn't the only reason for building this. |

By:
Ovalman is right: The Higgs Boson is the big bullseye as it would confirm a lot of theory which is currently without explicit experimental confirmation, but there are other projects as well as "unknowns". One such project is looking at possible parity violations.

What's all this smutt about A LARGE HARDON?
|
|
By:
It's the collider that's large, not the hadrons (which are pretty small at around 0.000000000001 milimetres across).

A group of scientists built a large particle accelerator and turned it on.
The massive black hole which they had created engulfed the entire universe and then exploded - this being what we - 17 billion years later - call the 'big bang'. Now its our turn....... Copyrighted LMFAO I'm working on the novel and the film - but appear to be up against it timewise..... |

good to hear its working again, back on timeline for that 2012 target
on the plus side - Seb Coe will be livid |

I'm all for furthering science and this piece of equipment sounds great.
What I'd like to see is it rented out to our justice system so they could smash neds and hoodies at great speed into each other. Would solve a lot of the issue surrounding anti-social behaviour. We could use the smashed bits as weed control material like mulch. |
