Administrator DKT27 Posted November 21, 2009 Administrator Share Posted November 21, 2009 Large Hadron Collider up and running againA silicon detector being installed in the Large Hadron Collider in December 2007.The world's biggest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, is in operation again after more than a year of repairs.The European Organisation for Nuclear Research, Cern, said in a statement on Friday that particle beams are once again circulating in the LHC, and that a clockwise circulating beam was established at 10 PM local time.According to the Cern Twitter feed, an anticlockwise beam was also successfully injected, and both beams have completed many thousands of turns of the LHC."The LHC is up and running regularly. Operators are adjusting and testing obedient beams," according to the Cern Twitter feed.The particle accelerator, which is in an underground location spanning the French-Swiss border, was started up for the first time in September 2008. However, it was decommissioned after only nine days in operation because a fault in a copper splice caused an explosion. Since then, Cern has been working to investigate, repair and eliminate the fault, and to get the LHC cooled to operational temperatures."The LHC is a far better understood machine than it was a year ago," said Cern’s director for accelerators, Steve Myers, in the statement. "We've learned from our experience, and engineered the technology that allows us to move on."The aim of the LHC, which has taken 15 years and €10bn to build, is to conduct particle collision experiments that could shed light on fundamental questions about the origins and nature of the universe.Source - ZDNet UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator DKT27 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted November 21, 2009 All I was sayin here that there were reports or rumors, whatever you may say it, that when this runs, it has chances to create small black holes in the earth. Even small black hole may have capacity to suck up whole galaxy. So why to go against nature and experiment something that has no true meaning in the real bread and butter life? Well it's okay if they wanna go outside it the space to see somethin extra ordinary, but this Hadron Collider is useless if you ask me. If they are tryin to do somethin like this, they are tryin to be oversmart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karachidude Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Thanks DKT,for those who dont know,what a Hadron Colloider is:The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a gigantic scientific instrument near Geneva, where it spans the border between Switzerland and France about 100 m underground. It is a particle accelerator used by physicists to study the smallest known particles – the fundamental building blocks of all things. It will revolutionise our understanding, from the minuscule world deep within atoms to the vastness of the Universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These suck at being black holes and real black holes laugh at them. B)"quantum black holes would instantly evaporate, either totally or leaving only a very weakly interacting residue."Source: http://en.wikipedia....icro_black_hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HX1 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 LOL.. Maybe we would come out of the other end.. a white hole..as different matter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avonlea Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I read that all the problems with the collider are caused by the collider itself due to the time travel - the collider tries to stop itself from running ..something to that extent.. I can't recall it exactly..but it as a weird theory..maybe someone here came across it and can tell it better than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
