Do you have some organized tour to the LHC itself (= probably to one of the detectors)?
I logged on to their website and ordered a tour for 3 people its not private but I'm not sure exactly where they'll take us...
thank you all:)
some more questions:
how can one find or measure something that you don't know anything about? how does the detector know to separate them if it doesn't know what its looking for?
as i am in switzerland now, i scheduled a tour of the LHC. does anyone have any suggestions as to...
great answers thank you!:)
i have another question. what is suspected to happen when you collide two protons together at these energies? are they expecting to separate the quarks as well as to find the higgs boson?
so basically the only reason is that itll be easier to accelerate? other than that i wouldn't have made a difference if it was electrons?
and thanks for the quick reply:)
hi,
im new to the whole subject of particle physics. I've searched for a long time and couldn't find an answer to a very simple question. WHY PROTONS?? why did they spend 8 billion dollars to build a collider to collide protons? why not electrons for example? why do they think that colliding...
