CERN News - Nov 10, 2010: First heavy ions in the LHC

[raymon202]

bitch doenst know were she is talking about

[beliyvadim1]

bad bad english



[LiveCoMGames]

how do they know a fucking particle was destoyed micro seconds after the big bang? its bullshit! know one knows!

[TehSxc18yearOld]

@LiveCoMGames they are creating ammounts of energy similar to it, and they need to see what's inside them, hurr durr!!!

[RobBrown822]

two peoples minds exploded

[jenn011754]

With all of the collisions that take place, is there any residual matter that builds up over time? Does everything disapate with out a trace? Pitting or burn marks.

[tankydhg]

All those that said CERN would be the end of the world. HA! Now you all feel very stupid don't you? Are you in denial now?

[jokeraces22]

im ion man'

[adamlesh]

I can't tell if her stance at 2:15 is sexy or ridiculous...she is a cougar though, that's for sure. :)

[evanspeteroy]

Any one know what the slide guitar & harp tune that crops up in the vid at various points?

[MovieMad007]

@evanspeteroy why the hell does that matter? what the heck has that got to do with particle physics? If thats all you can add to the discussion - it s the same on every youtube video - doesn't matter what the subject is ...just the anal question "whats the music in the video"!!

[evanspeteroy]

@MovieMad007 Well, my Dad spent his life designing control systems for particle accelerators. His designs crop up at various points throughout the LHC & various other devices around the world. He inspired me to study heavy electrical engineering & we talk at length about this stuff, so guess what... there isn't a lot I don't know about the machinery of high energy particle physics. However I don't know who played on the sound track... so unless you can educate me you can go f*ck yourself!

[MovieMad007]

@evanspeteroy jesus - if you can only swear at someone you don't know for toffee i suggest you don't post stuff on YouTube! I don't care for what your Father did (or what you do for that matter). You spoiled your eloquent reply by swearing, and in my book you are not worth the browser this is written on! It wasn't me who was interested in the music on the video - you asked what the music was on the video...I was merely replying to that question saying why the heck should it matter what music?

[MovieMad007]

End of rant!

Pointless arguing - pitiful subject when the video is such an interesting and fascinating topic.

[GuitarNoob1989]

she needs to watch a video on elocution

[DeepAbsentia]

Science, beautiful woman and a funny accent. That's perfect.

[Ashtree81]

574 Tev?! And all thisw time they have been going on about 14 Tev is the upper limit of the accelerator,, yeah its with protons, but why didnt they pump it full of lead ions if they wanted to reach theese energies? Anybody knows?

[kevmorrison11]

yeah! she's NIICE! What LHC??

[Anime666Serbia]

SCIENCE!

[dobberdoss]

Great! NOW......what have they learned? haven't heard much

[TheChummey]

I'ts really beautiful , its like a birth , lets hope it wont end like einstein discovery , there would be no second chance

[ricktbdgc]

I like how they use tin foil on one section, rofl like from the kitchen drawer

[SuperJunky1]

@ricktbdgc Yeh the reynolds rap final stripper lol

[adzii1]

Jelly Babies.

[hipstarchild]

Now try inserting a packet of Uranium ions into the system

[meme1862103749]

@hipstarchild haha! I'd like to see the result of the Uranium ion test! hahahahaha

[cherrypie11061]

America also have one of these hadrn colliders it is in texas and its name is Desertron it cost 5 billion to build and is a lot bigger than the hadron collider, the Desertron's proper name is superconducting super collider apparently it was canceled !! these colliders have been in operation since 1971 and there are plans to build more

[theimperfektman]

did she say 574 TeV ??? i thought the LHC was only designed for two beams @ 7Tev each, making a 14TeV collision. im only an amateur but i'd like to know how they reached this MASSIVE number. go LHC!! if all goes well with these experiment, i might just feel safe to reproduce. no, it wasnt the experiments that made me fearful of reproduction. i hope the results (whenever they are published and understood) are able to bring humanity one step closer to Enlightenment and Peace.

[mikisaikano]

the chick is hot

[marck079]

well...how does people usually say in such cases, DON'T FEED THE TROLL, just wondering if some comments like those ones could be blocked anyway.....

[ProxySpam]

Black holes are infinitely macroscopic events, like those holding galaxies together, they are certainly not a persistent phenomenon of the infinitely microscopic.

[sbergman27]

It's interesting to finally start hearing about ALICE. It seems like every time someone talks about their role at the LHC, they start out by saying something like "I'll talk about ATLAS, because that's what I happen to be working on". And whenever pictures are shown of LHC, it's the ATLAS cavern. I was beginning to wonder if any of the other experiments really existed! ;-)

[andrecpv15]

just one collision? the planned was 600 million collisions per second? wasn´t it?

The recently news said that the temperature rocked by this collison was ten trillion degrees celcius, imagine when they collide ions with energy of 14 TeV, it will be a an amazing experience

[eli7j]

For anyone complaining about lack of results..... I completely hear your plea..... I too want to see them. This is a brand new machine though, and I think it's pretty safe to say that none of their experiments will yield any results for a while. They gotta get a feel for the controls first! I think it's also pretty safe to say that they are going to discover many, many new things (pracical or useless) with this groundbreaking machine. (oh and it is THC)

[dviratis]

Now this is exciting!!!

[Lovelyspliff]

lol they miss spelled THC

[LokiClock]

@Lovelyspliff I laugh at thee, Ms. Spell'ed THC!

[adzii1]

@Lovelyspliff Dude it's LHC not THC

[ProxySpam]

Ya they've done great work but it lacks some finishing. What would be even better is to turn the LHC into a weapon linked to a targeting system that can send a ''bullet'' at the speed of light. It could have the flaw that it takes hours to reload but we could eventually get past that difficulty by adding more channels.

It would make nuclear weapons look like kids toys.

[Aiden057]

Congratulations CERN Teams. I'd like to hear more information about this. Perhaps, eventually, CERN can produce some longer, more technically in depth videos. I read the more technical reports in the press, but I would like some longer videos. Thanks for all the great posts. Keep them coming and good luck. Very exciting news...

[kontarkorz]

02:53 : it seems like they took inspiration by star trek or something similar here....

anyway I've been impressed too for all monitors they have! hope they will really lead to some really interesting discoveries... (antimatter i.e., why not?)

[vindicta911]

michio kaku is my idol

[Falador321]

NOTHING HAPPENED!!! Good job cern!

[TheFaustianMan]

Congratulations! This is as big as landing on the moon! But why is no one talking about the Antimatter.

[marck079]

I must admit I "love" this kind of -trolls- like the user below, if it's like "the quantum theory tells you the animal has 2 eyes and 4 legs" I'm not hopeless,this means that the same can also reveals if some "users" really got any brain or not, anyway I'm personally not scared that much to end in a "dark jungle", if some like you and your silly (few) supporters already know how to do ,we just have to hope they'll defend us.....so not to worry at all...,

[marck079]

according to a breaking news, those from cern managed to trap some antimatters cells, this is really interesting, it seems science-fiction!! (without humour ,I swear!), I hope from this channel we will be privileged to hear more about this , many thanks in advance CERNTV and for all previous uploads incl.this!

[ProxySpam]

@marck079 Great! It would take CERN 10 000 years to gather enough anti-matter to send a space craft to the moon...I think I'll stick with my fuel-cells for now lol.

[arodterrible]

@ProxySpam Yeah let's just cancel all of the R&D in the world because it costs money. What has science and discovery ever done for us anyway?

[ProxySpam]

@arodterrible I never said it's bad to invest into science, I said stop showing off with the expensive machinery and show us some results. I'm just impatient to see the results like everyone else that's all.

[sbergman27]

@ProxySpam Not finding what we expected, at the energies we expected, is a valid result. And a very interesting one. Though its *far* too early to even begin forming any conclusions. If the LHC finds what we expected, without yielding anything unexpected... *that* would be the worst possible outcome. It's one of Steven Weinberg's night terrors. People think "Great Discoveries!", when in fact what we need are hints. We know that the standard model is incomplete. So where to go next?

[ProxySpam]

@sbergman27 The LHC is very fancy, I'm happy it exists but its use is entirely theoretical. My question to you is, can you make a weapon out of this? Also, could you built such a weapon in space and aim the beam at other planets or objects?

[sbergman27]

@ProxySpam What's the deal? Are you lonely? Looking for attention? You're posting gibberish. And no one could possibly really be as stupid as you're acting in this thread. Is this just an incredibly poor attempt at trolling?

[ProxySpam]

@sbergman27 I can't complain, I got some of your wife's attention and don't be calling me no fucking troll or I'll kick your jew ass faster than a rabbit gets fucked.

[arodterrible]

@ProxySpam Yeah let's just cancel all of the R&D in the world because it costs money. What has science and discovery ever done for us anyway?

[1888junkteam]

ok when do i get to hi five my parallel me?

[FlowCell]

@1888junkteam

Ask Gordon Freeman.

[baf4redrum]

very interesting, one question, has those "bulletins" from Cern a specific periodicity (i.e.each month) or just according to relevant news eventually coming out? thanks for keeping us up to date however.

[ole9421]

Isn't it obvious what will eventually be discovered. After years of analyzing the data they will discover that they have been creating mini universes. Universes that exist at a quantum time scale. To our scale of time they would seem to last only billionths of a second but from within those time scales their existence would appear to be billions of years old. In fact our existence is probably the result of this same sort of experiment being carried out by beings that exist at a larger scale.

[sbergman27]

@ole9421 "In fact our existence is probably the result of this same sort of experiment being carried out by beings that exist at a larger scale."

Turtles all the way down? There's a serious issue with your hypothesis. While far from being real science (yet) the idea of colliding branes better satisfies Occam's Razor.

[ole9421]

@sbergman27 Yeah I know its a bit over the top but still worth wondering about. Chilling actually. When thinking about it in this fashion it helps to cue the intro to The Twilight Zone then add a little voice over by Rod Serling. Kinda helps set the mood.

[Henysheadonwall]

They've always done lead atoms.

[ProxySpam]

@Henysheadonwall ''Nov 10, 2010: First heavy ions''

Are you noob?

[ProxySpam]

Everyone is lying..they say in a bad English '' oh we now collide lead atoms, it's a big moment in history bla bla'' which means: we collided the protons and didn't get jack! No results nothing special so we move on to bigger atoms and hope for the best.

That's the only reason they would move on to heavier atoms, because the hydrogen collision didn't explain shit, it was a failure. I guess time will tell if I'm right but I know that quantum theory only works for the hydrogen atom...for a reason.

[HiAdrian]

@ProxySpam You're making up bullshit as you go along. Both elementary particle- and nuclei-collisions have a history in particle physics. The LHC was built specifically with both modes of operation in mind.

You also seem to have a wrong idea about the timescales involved in this type of research. The LHC and its experiments are intended to run for 20 years. The notion of immediate scientific conclusions is ridiculous. That aside, plenty of papers have been published already.

[sbkang85]

@ProxySpam lol people need to just ignore this guy. He doesn't understand that the LHC has only just begun its operations, and they will be running it for at LEAST 20 years. They're barely begun.

Also, take a look at his channel. He's some gamer nerd that probably doesn't understand anything about particle physics, and he's here running his mouth and calling people "noob".

[rottimpie]

I don't think the money for Lhc or for Cern experiments are bad spent at all, and hope they will keep on through these projects, I 'm aware there had been some polemics (i.e.in Italy) due to potencial dangers in doing these experiments but I fully disagree with that , thanks for posting by the way

[Hornet85]

@ProxySpam I don't think they've even hit 14TeV yet. They are supposed to do that in 2012 or so if I recalled correctly. And its not meant to reveal anything at first 14TeV collision either. Its a long term experiment. If you look at the record of previous collider, they dont achieve everything in a short period after begin operation.

One can hardly judge it right now when it only recently begin operation

[sbergman27]

@Hornet85 I don't think its a matter of "do experiment" -> "get a result". Data pours out of the detectors at something like a petabyte a second, gets processed and goes into a huge database. Researchers all over the world then get access to pieces of the data and conduct their own research. Something very exciting may already be in the data. But it may not be mined and "discovered" for years. It's more like "Here's a ship load full of cow manure. Find the diamond!".

[SpanishThug]

Awesome!!! More pleassee!!!

[blah979]

NCSI guys have more monitors then they do.

[ImJustOldMate]

she's sexy

[poxilos]

I think, a collition with Paola Catapano would be interesting as well!

[duchesseagle404]

learn who the kenites are pls go to THESEASON ORG......and learn....

[duchesseagle404]

in the bible it does mention that we will be flying one day and the bible was right look up Ezekiel 1:4 "And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire," The word "Amber" in the Hebrew text, "glowing metal".

but the bible never mentions A BIG BANG.....stop stealing the peoples money the KENITES are the problem of the world

[goldragon988]

The more we know, the more we know our limits. Sci-fi stuff like flying cars will probably never exist.

[lanjoe9]

@goldragon988 They already exist, they're just not as convenient as we imagined.. and insanely costly and dangerous :)

[ZigyZ7788]

i hope they can reproduce the higgs and put it into the z pinch. Hay any thing can happen i think. 200 years ago they said flying was crazy.

[Orkaney]

You must drink alot at the LHC, when and where can I join?

[RufftaMan]

congratulations!

those collisions look wonderful.. have fun analyzing the data =)

[JamesMulvale]

@smokechok You only get out what you put in. The 'mini big bang' they created would only produce a 'universe' the size of a few lead ions. Our universe may be fractal but anything that happened in it would obey the laws of it. Kinda cool though

[ProxySpam]

We got it...you wasted half of Europe's tax money, there's no need to go over the apparatus again and again. What about the results? What did you find? @_@

[niiidar]

@ProxySpam

afraid we will have to wait a few years for any new discoveries.

[ericmarseille2]

@ProxySpam Half of Europe's tax money would be something like 30 Trillion dollars (on a 5 to 10 years span) ; cost of the LHC on that same span : 10 Billion more or less ; please don't be stupid

[ProxySpam]

@ericmarseille2 Tu ne sais pas c'est quoi une hyperbole? Oh wait! A Marseille c'est pas comme a Paris, on ne vous enseigne pas ca a l'ecole.

Dommage, vas a la plage.

8]

[ericmarseille2]

@ProxySpam Mais si je sais ce qu'est une hyperbole, et puis je suis Parisien (39 ans à Paris et 9 à Marseille) ; j'irai à la plage dès le mois de juin, promis! (je suis frileux) ; avoue qu'il y a quand même une différence entre 50% et 0.3% d'un budget, ça fait cher de l'hyperbole, non? Et puis on ne mesure pas encore les retombées économiques pour l'humanité, d'ailleurs...Non, désolé vieux, thumbs up for the LHC, we Europeans like fundamental research!

[topjonn]

Still no Higgs? Whats next?

[dbigoodboyatdbkfdcls]

This is Fuckmothering science bitches o.O it works

[myjizzureye]

@dbigoodboyatdbkfdcls Science is built on a massive amount of failures to find what does work.

Do you think every single experiment ends in a positive result verifying the proposed hypothesis?

You sir...are a simpleton

[dbigoodboyatdbkfdcls]

@myjizzureye It was a fucking joke you damned ass (check the thunderf00t combustion video if you want the reference), and regardless if the test produces a positive or negative result doesn't negate the fact that science does work; so there is nothing wrong with my statement... but since you're so learned why not point out what I said wrong?

[lastpoet1]

shes got the big ass i want to bite and lick

[Awhiffofsuspicion]

knock knock is anybody there..

[Aresftfun]

Amazing! What are the properties of quark-gluon plasma as compared with average plasma? (blood etc.)

[Freigeist20789]

@Aresftfun quark-gluon plasma is when quarks and gluons the bricks of protons and neutrons are free to move and interact with each other, state of the universe shortly after bigbang.

Usual plasma is a fully ionized gas, where atoms and electrons can freely move around.

And blood plasma is something completly different...^^

[Aresftfun]

@Freigeist20789 Thanks!

[smokechok]

U AR (or will) CREATING NEW UNIVERSES!!!!!!! welcome to fractal universe.

[spinynorman1982]

If I worked there, every time a new type of collision took place I would yell "FATHER! The sleeper has awakened!"

[DOCSAFETUBE]

we patriots think you need to shut it down...you are putting mother earth at high risk!!

[GodKillerAtheist]

@DOCSAFETUBE "we patriots think you need to shut it down...you are putting mother earth at high risk!!"

Patriots? LOL you mean irrational fear of the unknown, mouth breather.

Particle collision experiments have been taking place for the last 80 years.

The same type of phenomenon, but at much higher speeds takes place NATURALLY in our atmosphere every second of every day, since the earth has ever existed. So calm down, it is natural.

[adzii1]

@GodKillerAtheist but not at this scale, you are unknown on what dangers can comeout from this machine, aka black hole...

[NAMLegolas]

@adzii1 Please go learn what a black hole is then come back to talk about how it can create a black hole :)

[adzii1]

@NAMLegolas Black hole is a hole in the universe that sucks in everything around it and nothing escapes, not even light. High collisions at the speed off light cna create black holes.

[AnimeFanatic5602]

@adzii1 What you fail to understand is the sheer amount of matter and energy required to create a singularity of any significant size and duration. A black hole is much more than just a hole; all of the matter is concentrated to a single point of infinite density called a singularity. That is what causes the infinite gravity that absolutely nothing can escape. However, singularities of the size that you're probably thinking of typically come from the cores of collapsed stars, not the LHC.

[frededison]

@adzii1

Cosmic rays which arrive at the Earth from objects like supernovas in deep space, have many, many times more energy than the LHC can generate at _full_ power. If black holes were to be formed you'd think they would have formed in the billions of years before the LHC was constructed. But we're still here after those ultra-high-energy & powerful cosmic collisions and there are no black holes eating the Earth nor should there be after the LHC is powered to "11". Relax.

[GodKillerAtheist]

@adzii1 "you are unknown on what dangers can comeout from this machine, aka black hole..."

If this machine was capable of creating a black hole there would be far more chance of our sun creating black holes from the trillions upon trillions of impacts created hourly that are at far higher speeds and far greater scales than what this machine could ever hope to produce.

You have an irrational fear that has been propagated by ignorance and propaganda.

[adzii1]

@GodKillerAtheist Yeah, yeah your right.. I only got this idea from news and papers :L

[BriannaRae1102]

@GodKillerAtheist  Well put, I'd just like to add that it's probably just his xenophobia. But regardless, fact is fact.

[adzii1]

@GodKillerAtheist not on this type of scale.

[GodKillerAtheist]

@adzii1 You're so right this scale is much much smaller than the natural phenomenon and at much slower speeds.

[feuchster]

@DOCSAFETUBE You made me laugh, thanks =]

[adzii1]

@DOCSAFETUBE i agree.

[canuzzi]

@DOCSAFETUBE Would you please mind your own US business, like teaching your kids young earth myth,s and let us Europeans do the stuff we want to do, like searching for scientific answers on the origin of the universe? By the way, the US scientist are still very welcome to help us with the quest. It's real tragic, where the US is heading scince the last ten years ...

[ProxySpam]

@DOCSAFETUBE Their magnets are not strong enough to do that. If they try to collide dangerously heavy beams the beam will go offset and pierce the tube before it even reaches the speed of light. I would not worry about the dangers of it, I would be more worried that what they find will take them centuries to decode and thus the findings will be useless for our generation.

[DOCSAFETUBE]

@ProxySpam im no scientist , im only a small business owner and a full time patriot for my country..im not against science at all , neither is my fellow patriots that I know..but my research says that cern can create black holes , now if there is dead on proof that some of you guys have and we haven't seen..then please message us the info! im just here looking after mother earth!

doc

[ProxySpam]

@DOCSAFETUBE If there was the slightest risk that a black hole would be created they wouldn't have carried on the experiment. And even if they did, USA would have nuked their facility before they even pressed the on button ^.^

There is absolutely no chance of it happening, period. The people who pretend that black holes can be created are just bad scientists looking for media attention. It makes no sense.

[DOCSAFETUBE]

@ProxySpam ummmm...im listening ...so where is all this info that we havent seen dude....you got any links for us?

doc

[BrightSoul80]

haha, italian english ^^ I'm proud to see that quite a number of italian scientists is partecipating in this project, though.
