Particle Hunters: the CMS Quest 1

Part 1 of a video by Cern regarding the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment. Video date June 2004. Main goals of the experiment are-
To explore physics at the TeV scale.
To discover the Higgs boson.
To look for evidence of physics beyond the standard model, such as supersymmetry or extra dimensions.
To be able to study aspects of heavy ion collosions. Video source- http://cdsweb.cern.ch/collection/Video%20Movies

Anyone know the name of the song that plays at 9:00?

I firmly believe that we, as sentient beings perceive a dimensional perspective that is exclusive. By this I mean that, although we have the sensory capability to approach the understanding of existence, we will never break through what I refer to as "The Reason Wall". This is a theory that means that: we cannot break a physical bound that is part of its compound. For instance; if you were a 100 ft tall human bound by the confines the same physical forces=disaster. Same for quantum physics.

Though there are less female physicists working in that field than male ones we still are just as intelligent and productive as one another. You might be just a plain sexist moron but any rubbish you spew will simply die out in the years to come when a balance is struck between male and female workers.

They obviously hired her at Cern for "special jobs" I mean those guys there got to get laid some how.
