can some one tell me what is this video about? I'm stupid...

@live4Cha Or, in my view, spending money in the most awesome way possible!

Holy technology!

Круто, вот люди (таких не мало), которые стремяться!

Bigger means more costly and hard to manufacturate sometimes... so it is really an achievement to have come with an small design as explained in the video.

Why helium?
(Because it becomes virtually frictionless at low temp?)

I'm assuming the fact that it is impossible to set up a temperature gradient in a superfluid (i.e. helium-4 at temperatures below 2.17 K) means the temperature is evenly distributed throughout.

I don't profess to know anything about particle accelerators, but it looks small in diameter to me...
..I expected it to be like...bigger

Considering the circumference of the pipework is 16.5 miles, they would have been as efficient as possible in the design; the detectors themselves are a different story, the ATLAS detector is 25m in diameter, 46m long, the CMS detector is 16m in diameter, 21m long. The ATLAS detector is equivelent in height to a 9 storey building.
