Interesting links about LHC + pictures

by alex on August 5, 2008

First of all, let me say that none of scientific researches have made such a hype about itself and as so many people are interesting - let me post some interesting links about the CERN’s giant project + pictures

LHC launch was postponed until 08.08.08.

Short intro:

The Large Hadron Collider is a particle accelerator collider being built at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics, or CERN, straddling the French-Swiss border near Geneva. It should be completed and ready to start producing data sometime this summer. In it, scientists will be able to smash protons travelling at more than 99.99 percent of the speed of light with protons traveling in the opposite direction at the same speed.
