The scientists at CERN are shrugging off the fact that the future may be trying to stop their particle-finding mission and are ready to restart the Large Hadron Collider this weekend. Having been offline for over a year, the LHC has overcome its myriad problems and is ready to hunt for the elusive Higgs boson once more. Unlike a car in cold weather, the re-igniting of the LHC takes more work that...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment has restarted after a 14-month pause, BBC reports Saturday. The collider, the world largest particle accelerator, was stopped in September 2008 after functioning for just hours and needed to be repaired over a problem in its cooling system. On Friday, engineers have made two stable proton beams circulate in opposite directions around the machine, while the...

In a press release, CERN informed us that beams have returned to run in the LHC (see here). These are great news as, from now, we know that they are back on track after the severe setback happened last year.So, great physics awaits us in the next years and I take this opportunity to wish this people [...]

I only put this here so show the sheer SCALE of the idiocy. hmm, protons that are 7,000 times HEAVIER than at rest? And you wallop them together? Laughing my ass off. This waste of resources is as insane as Corporate Wars instead of new hospitals and improved social architecture.

The Large Hadron Collider at Cern in Switzerland has been turned on again after the 14 month break for repairs, so this may be my last post before we are all sucked into the Space/Time vortex. Imagine when they had to call out the repair man? (sucks intake of air through teeth) "You are looking at at least £3 million for parts and labour squire and I can't even look at it for 6 months. You...
