A simulated collision event viewed along the beampipe.

The event is one in which a mini-blackhole was produced and decayed immediately. The black area in the center with many particle tracks represents the inner detector (pixel detector, semiconductor tracker, and transition radiation tracker), which has been enormously magnified relative to the rest of the detector (in this view) .

The colors of the thin tracks have no significance. The thick yellow lines are the two electrons in this event. The green area is the electromagnetic calorimeter, while the red area is the hadronic calorimeter. The green and red histograms show the energy deposits by particles in the electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters. A muon was added by hand to the event to show how it would look in the detector; it is a thick blue line in the inner detector and orange in the (blue) muon chambers.

  • i don't know who told you that black holes are a part of every atom.....but you should probably punch them

  • It isn't the image as much as the information behind it.

  • so, who has the produced antimatter then??

  • What the frick is a light hole?

  • xD word

  • i can get the same effect by dropping $20 worth of acid on my tongue. wtf is this?

  • Although you have to admit, if god's particle is small as these folks claim, it does help explain the bible.

  • Nope black holes are part of the universe and birth of the universe. With out them we would not be here. They only exist out side not inside of particles cause they are created by the force of acceleration and deceleration forming the universe.

  • you nearly killed us with a 16 billion dollar custom shoop da whooper

  • Black holes are part of every atom, why would this particular black hole that cost $16 billion be any more special than all the other black holes? It's just the opposite to a light hole. Are you crazy physicists trying to pull our leg? I can't understand what it is you think you're going to find or how exactly is this going to benefit humanity? Can anyone actually answer this question? Or is this like looking for the Higgs Boson? I thought there were 6 of them?

  • omfg this is so assome

    you should be productor

    fock

    this is great

    sell it for 10000000 million dollars
