  • The delays, if anyones interested, occured in March (2007) where one of the 3 quadropole inner-triplet focussing magnets (in point ('sector') 5) failed a high pressure test. The resulting asymetric force generated from this failure broke the support which holds the magnet in the cryostat. The chamber was flooded with liquid helium (2 kelvin)

    The ENTIRE device at point 5 had to be dismantled and repaired as there was damage to all 3 magnets, and the electrical systems.

  • There will be MANY experiments, not just one. And no particle accelerator has ever blown anything up (except for protons etc. of course :P), though should I be wrong, and the CMS does blow up, I hope you are in its vicinity at the time, then there'd be one less dumbfuck prick around.

  • It is reasonable to consider this 50 some odd years of science, has caused or contributed to Haiti and the two volcanos. Think about it.

  • What about these higher dimensional realms, is there life in these strange, higher dimensional realities? Are these malevolent life forms?

  • German accent is amusing, I like it... <3

  • hey this was a german it is difficult for us to speak english when people hear it all over the world

    don't laugh or i want to see how u speak german

  • Lulz. Tevatron. Sounds like the bad guy from the new Transformers film.

  • Awesome!

  • LOL!

  • Absolutly correct, GLOBALLY a few million a year..might not be that big a deal.. BUT..spend that few million each year on our failing EDUCATION SYSTEM, and you will save a few trillion dollars in welfare, and related costs of poverty, and potential crime. The G20 countries are turning themselves into a social black hole, bigger than CERN ever will because of your irresponsable backwards socioeconomic policies!! you better look at the long term big picture......"BOY"...

  • Wow you just googled some shit and then pretended you were smart didnt you?

    First off do you know how LITTLE a TeV is? Its about the energy an insect uses to fly for 1 second

    wtf is a 'hyper bomb', I think you mean a SUPERNOVA. That would be the event wherein a star many millions of times larger then our tiny sun (which is still billions of times larger then earth) explodes, no human could ever generate the energy of a supernova, without actually inducing a star to supernova.
