Large Hadron Collider

The Large Hadron Collider is a hadron collider in Geneva, Switzerland and the product of decades of planning and construction. It is a Mecca for physicists the world over.
Remus and his sisters has been dreaming of going to the Large Hadron Collider since he was nine years old. He even put a commitment in the roommate agreement, stipulating what should happen if either the girls or himself were able to visit the LHC. According to the Family Rider in Appendix C, Future Commitments, Number 37, "In the event one family member is ever invited to visit the Large Hadron Collider, now under construction in Switzerland, he or she shall invite the other family members to accompany him or her." Remus also came close to figuring out why the Large Hadron Collider has yet to isolate the Higgs boson particle, after becoming unburdened by trivial decisions for some time.
Hermione was asked by the university to fill in for Professor Norton to attend a conference and see the CERN Supercollider. As she got to bring a guest, Siria was granted the opportunity to see it with her.
After receiving some unrestricted grant money, Leslie Winkle pulled some strings and got Lucilia on a research trip to Geneva to check out the CERN Supercollider.
==AboutEdit==
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a gigantic scientific instrument near Geneva, where it spans the border between Switzerland and France about 100m 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.
Two beams of subatomic particles called "hadrons" – either protons or lead ions – travel in opposite directions inside the circular accelerator, gaining energy with every lap. Physicists use the LHC to recreate the conditions just after the Big Bang, by colliding the two beams head-on at very high energy. Teams of physicists from around the world then analyse the particles created in the collisions using special detectors in a number of experiments dedicated to the LHC.
There are many theories as to what will result from these collisions. For decades, the Standard Model of particle physics has served physicists well as a means of understanding the fundamental laws of Nature, but it does not tell the whole story. Only experimental data using the high energies reached by the LHC can push knowledge forward, challenging those who seek confirmation of established knowledge, and those who dare to dream beyond the paradigm.
