    Undergrad Hadron collider substance used

    Q.) what substance is used for the hadron collider, the metal? I presume a metal compound of some sort but was wondering which and would it have to withstand high temperatures or are the electromagnets used kept at low temperatures due to better effieciency?

    Graduate Living Beyond Possible: Could I Age Less Than Earth?

    Q.) If i were to travel at 100,000 m/s in an exact horizontal line away from Earth for approximately 1 year, when i return would everyone on Earth have aged older than me? If so, and traveling 100,000 m/s is possible for a year constant, then could i not live for 100 *earth years* without aging...

    Graduate Tokamak using elctrons instead of hydrogen nuclei

    Q.) What would happen if a *reverse-Tokamak* was created, thus reversing the electromagnets to a negative charge and repelling electrons into each other instead of fusing hydrogen nuclei, what approximate temperature would need to be used and would it work? If so what would occur?
