    Has a Star Collision Ever Been Observed in Our Universe?

    Well this is completely wrong... Although I don't know the exact probability of a star collision taking place, in an article I read they believed they were happening every 10 seconds. You have to realize how big the universe is, and how little we can observe. The only star collisions visible to...

    The building of a proton accelerator

    Would you stop "trying" to tell me its too expensive, there are ways around things. I find it hard to believe that it MUST cost thousands of dollars to find a sufficient vaccum. And whos to say I'm not some loaded kid whose parents will spring for anything? Regardless I was trying to find out...

    The building of a proton accelerator

    It is possible to build a smaller scale project, why does it have to be so large and expensive. I was looking into doing this also and it was suggested to build a synchrocylotron they have been build as small as 30 cm in diameter. I don't know what the cost of parts is, but I'm sure its more in...

    Building a particle accelerator

    Thanks. Any tip on how small to start? I understand this is dangerous, so some kind of scale would be very helpful.

    Building a particle accelerator

    Haha the exact reply I was looking for. Iv'e had no drive in school whatsoever I can't try it's pointless.. but as soon as i thought about what I accually wanted to do with my life all I've wanted to do is advance my mind. Learning is what this is about, and honestly how cool would it be to have...

    Building a particle accelerator

    Why would I want advice or help from someone who only points out the negatives and the can't of a situation? I have a little common sense and don't plan on building some crazy unsafe machine and using it without precaution. I am looking for a guideline, like the cyclotron idea, which I like...

    Building a particle accelerator

    The science fair is the least of my worries. I could care less if there was a science fair, what I want is to build a particle accelerator. What I don't understand is why people feel the need top post their concerns? I do not care, if you can help with my problem then help, otherwise why are you...

    Building a particle accelerator

    I am not sure how "building" a good vacuum takes experience? i understand it is a very precise process, and is going to take a lot of time and patience and parts will be hard to find, but i am looking for a solution, not questions on how i am going to apply it...

    Building a particle accelerator

    I would like to build a particle accelerator as a science project. I know it may be unrealistic, but depending upon the size and complexity that I choose, it should be possible. If anyone could help with the construction process of a small particle accelerator(preferably circular), I would...
