The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has recreated the worlds tiniest droplets of a primordial state of matter that last existed moments after the Big Bang, some 13.82 billion years ago. Continue reading → read more »
How the modern universe is primarily composed of matter and not antimatter has foxed astrophysicists for decades, but a result from an LHC experiment has uncovered a new clue behind the matter-antimatter asymmetry mystery. Continue reading → read more »
Forget the Higgs bosons delusions of grandeur, the exchange particle that gives stuff mass appears to be something of a disappointment. -> read more »
From left to right is the raised flood-bank along Cedar Creek - a tranquil walk It has come to my attention, that I have to say a very big thank you to my friends - those folks out there in the 'interwebs', who have taken the time out of there busy lives to visit my blog - read my 'ranting' sometimes 'random' posts, but thinking about my story enough to stop and leave their comments. It really makes a massive, positive difference to me! So, thank you folks; +Priscilla Hedlin+Kevin Weilacher+thillai r... read more »
El LHC genera alrededor de 30 Petabytes (un Petabyte = 1 000 000 Gigabytes) cada año por lo que necesita tener conexiones rápidas para poder distribuir los datos a los centros de análisis que colaboran con el CERN y que están repartidos por todo el mundo. GEANT es la herramienta capaz de facilitar esta tarea. GEANT es la red [...] read more »
Image via Wikipedia Mais um passo importante na tentativa de descobrir como o Universo começou. O CERN, após ter recriado o Big Bang, conseguiu isolar 38 átomos de anti-hidrogénio por uns segundos o que vai permitir continuar as pesquisas sobre como foi possível, após o big bang, ter havido criação de mais átomos de matéria do que de anti-matéria, quando uns anulam os outros, o que permitiu a origem do Universo. Vale a pena aceder à página deles e ler os documentos que por lá se encontram e que estão e... read more »
