Large Hadron Collider News
Particle Physicists Get Nobel
STOCKHOLM, Oct. 7, 2008 -- An American and two Japanese physicists whose theoretical insights have provided a deeper understanding of what happens inside the tiniest building blocks of matter will share the Nobel Prize in Physics for 2008, the Royal Swedish Academy of...
LHC: No Smashing Until Spring
GENEVA, Sept. 23, 2008 -- Investigation into the cause of a large helium leak at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and repairs to the magnets that quenched during the leak mean the atom smasher won’t restart until spring 2009, officials at CERN, the organization hosting...
LHC Repairs to Take Months
GENEVA, Sept. 22, 2008 -- A faulty electrical connection between two magnets was most likely the cause of a magnet quench Friday that resulted in a large helium leak at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest particle accelerator, and will mean the...
Quench Latest LHC Setback
GENEVA, Sept. 19, 2008 -- A magnet quench Friday that resulted in a large helium leak is the latest setback for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest particle accelerator, which was launched with great fanfare last week. The LHC contains hundreds of...
Collider Beams Up at CERN
GENEVA, Sept. 10, 2008 -- After 20-plus years of planning, billions of dollars, lawsuits, and even death threats, the first beam of protons in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator was successfully steered around a 17-mile racetrack at nearly the speed of...
Physicists Collide with Doomsayers
Sep 10, 2008 — Recently, theoretical chemist Otto Rössler and others have protested the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Geneva, fearing that the world’s largest particle accelerator will produce massive black holes that will swallow Earth. Proponents of the...
Threats Won't Stop Collider
GENEVA, Sept. 9, 2008 -- Despite death threats, lawsuits, and even physicist Stephen Hawking betting against it, the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator, will be turned on Wednesday. The LHC operates in a circular tunnel 27 km (16.7 miles) in...
Subsurfaces Seen Sharply
LAUSANNE, Switzerland, July 21, 2008 -- The high penetration power of x-rays has been combined with diffraction imaging to create a novel x-ray microscope that makes it possible, for the first time, to view the detailed interiors of semiconductor devices and cellular structures. The...
Fermilab to Begin Furloughs
BATAVIA, Ill., Jan. 25, 2008 -- With federal funding for high energy physics in the US unexpectedly reduced by $94 million for 2008, officials at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) said the lab may have to lay off about 10 percent of its work force next spring. The...
Refilling the Physicist Pool
BUFFALO, N.Y., July 5, 2007 -- At the mention of the word "outsourcing," most people probably think of manufacturing, not theoretical physics. But the scientists who develop theoretical predictions for high-energy particle physics experiments say outsourcing in their field has...
1st LHC Theory Initiative Fellowships Awarded
Apr 18, 2007 — The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Theory Initiative, a US-based consortium of theoretical physicists aiming to stimulate and cultivate new young talent in anticipation of the opening of the Large Hadron Collider, has awarded $40,000 graduate...
Fermilab 'Dumbfounded' by Fiasco That Broke Magnet
GENEVA, April 4, 2007 -- In what is being described as a "pratfall on the world stage," the quadrupole magnet that Fermilab built for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator failed high-pressure testing dramatically last week, resulting in a loud "bang" and a...
Team Detects Top Quark
RIVERSIDE, Calif., Dec. 15, 2006 -- A group of 50 international physicists has detected the subatomic particle the top quark, for the first time produced without the simultaneous production of its antimatter partner -- an extremely rare event. The discovery of the single top quark...
CERN Completes Magnet Set for Large Hadron Collider
GENEVA, Nov. 29, 2006 -- CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, took delivery of the last superconducting main magnet for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) on Monday, completing the full set of 1624 main magnets required to build the world's largest and most...
Rice Physicist to Direct $40M LHC Program
HOUSTON, April 26, 2006 -- Rice University announced that physicist B. Paul Padley has been chosen to lead the scientific operations for one of the particle detector systems at the European Organization for Nuclear Research's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Scheduled to begin...
CERN Starts Tunnel Installation
Mar 8, 2005 — GENEVA, March 8 -- Installation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest particle physics collider, began with the lowering of a 50-foot, 38.6-pound dipole magnet into its accelerator tunnel yesterday by the European Organization for...
