Hangout With Cern: Lhc And The Grid

AI Thread Summary
CERN hosts a weekly "Hangout with CERN" every Thursday at 5:00 PM CET, focusing on big data generated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The sessions highlight how CERN manages approximately 25 petabytes of data annually through global collaborations, specifically the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid, which includes over 170 computing centers across 36 countries. Participants can submit questions in advance via comments or Twitter using the hashtag #askCERN, and selected questions may be addressed live. The hangouts are streamed on CERN's Google+ and YouTube channels, with recordings available afterward. Upcoming discussions will cover topics such as the LHC's current shutdown and recent discoveries related to the Higgs boson.

Hangout With CERN: LHC and the Grid - Big data, big questions
Public · By CERN

usually every thursday 5:00pm in UTC+01

Last week we showed you how global computing helps CERN store, distribute and analysis around 25 Petabytes (25 million Gigabytes) of data generated per year from the Large Hadron Collider. This week we'll talk more about big data, and answer more of your big questions.

Join IT experts from CERN and the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) project - a global collaboration of more than 170 computing centres in 36 countries.

This "Hangout with CERN" is broadcast live on Thursday 14 February at 17:00 CET, on CERN's Google+ and YouTube pages, with a recording later available on YouTube.

You can post questions in advance in the comments below or on Twitter to @CERN with the hashtag #askCERN. We'll pick the best ones to answer and we may even invite you to participate in the live hangout!

The Large Hadron Collider has now entered its first long shutdown. But why? Why stop a machine that is working so well?
 
Oh wow, I didn't know the LHC was shutting down for so long.

What is the latest on the new particle discovered last year at CERN? In this Hangout with CERN, we find out what physicists are presenting at this week's Moriond conference in Italy. The new particle is looking more and more like a Higgs boson, but what do we know so far and what do we still need to know?
 
Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
