How U.S. Researchers Are Making the Switch to the Large Hadron ColliderJR Minkel
One of their most important laboratories, CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), lies deep underground in a 16.5-mile long circular tunnel that crosses the French-Swiss border. Inside the tunnel, electric fields accelerate two proton-packed beams to absurd speeds and then allow them to collide, ...

Run by the European Organization for Nuclear Research, or CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland. The purpose of the collider is to allow scientists to test theories and predictions of particle physics and find new physics. Completed in 2008, the Large Hadron Collider has had two “operational runs,”...
How big is the CERN particle accelerator? How powerful is a gamma ray burst? How much stronger is the strong nuclear force than gravity? How strong is graphene? How does the weak nuclear force increase nuclear stability? How strong are the Large Hadron Collider magnets? How much energy does...
Quark recombination in the quark-gluon plasma formed in high-energy nuclei collisions enhances the production of Bc mesons. These mesons consist of a charm quark and a bottom quark. Most of the quark-gluon plasma decays into thousands of other particles. Credit: CERN (CMS Collaboration, B. Wu...
The European Organization for Nuclear Research, or CERN, which houses the Large Hadron Collider, has its own, slightly smaller detector, which went online in September 2018. A second detector is also on the way. DUNE will benefit from a significant upgrade to Fermilab’s accelerators, with the...
