In the present day, the Giant Hadron Collider is probably the most highly effective particle physics experiment in historical past. What would a brand new, successor collider train us?
Proper now, the Giant Hadron Collider (LHC) is probably the most highly effective particle accelerator/collider ever constructed. Accelerating protons as much as 299,792,455 m/s, simply 3 m/s shy of the pace of sunshine, they smash collectively at energies of 14 TeV, creating all types of latest particles (and antiparticles) from uncooked power, leveraging Einstein’s well-known E = mc² in an modern approach. By constructing detectors across the collision factors, we are able to uncover all types of properties about any recognized particles and probably uncover new particles as properly, because the LHC did for the Higgs boson again within the early 2010s.
