Collisions in the Collider?

[The Seftrex]

On old LG I made a thread based on the LHC (Large Hadron Collider).

Bad news, it's had two beams of highly charged Protons wizzing round the ring.

They then collided quite a number of times, you may be thinking so what? or Who cares?

Well, I will go into this a bit more.

What is the LHC?

For the people that loves space, the future and science this is the idol. The LHC is a Particle Accelerator designed to send two beams equal in every way made up of Protons, round a ring. Both beams are travelling not at but just below the Speed of Light, also carrying over 450 GeV (energy) not even a TeV (bigger) yet .

Both beams at certain points can be made to crash, causing a spray of particles and sub-atomic particles in each of the detectors situated around the ring.

The ultimate goal of doing this is to locate the hidden particle which keeps our mass, what keeps you at home or wherever you are together.

Ever wondered why you aren't like light? Wizzing around uncontrollably?

The Higgs Boson or the God Particle, the particle which keeps everything together will (hopefully) be found at the LHC.

Dangers!?

I will only go into the dangers if someone actually asks a question relating to a fear they may have of this device.

If you are amazingly worried about your safety and of the planet, do some research

Learn about how Nature is doing every second on a much larger scale, read up on Hawking Radiation, read up on the theory of relativity.

Overall don't worry.

Ask a question and I will try my best to answer it, I have been following the LHC for a long time and have a relatively firm grasp of Particle Physics to a certain degree.

Try and make the question about the LHC or any dangers you fear could occur.
