Large Hadron Collider - The Search For The Higgs [1 of 3]


Click Playlist: http://... November, 2007 the most complex scientific instrument ever built will be switched on. The Large Hadron Collider promises to recreate the conditions in the early universe. By revisiting the beginning of time, scientists hope to unravel some of the deepest secrets of our Universe.Within these first few moments the building blocks of the Universe were formed. The search for these fundamental particles has occupied scientists for decades but there remains one particle that has stubbornly refused to appear in any
experiment. The Higgs Boson is so crucial to our understandingof the Universe that it has been dubbed the God particle. It explains how fundamental particles acquire mass, or as one scientist plainly states: "It is what makes stuff
stuff..."

What will LHC give us: the particle of God, or magnetic trap of Devil. Magnetic trap is an axial-symmetric magnetic analogue of a black hole. It is 10^36 stronger than gravitational black hole.
CERNs specialists do not know about the magnetic trap yet. If microscopic magnetic trap will be made in CERN's LHC, the Earth will be transformed into an infinitely thin emptiness, surrounded by circular current of 6 meter radius. Compare: Schwarzschild radius of such mass is 0,009 meters

"the standard model"

I never said it was wrong; that was somebody else (the person I was responding to).

But now that you mention it, it looks like it's generally understood that the model has flaws. Doesn't mean it's "wrong" (it represents our current best understanding), but there are some things it doesn't explain and it's rather inelegant, so the search continues for a more fundamental theory.

"what makes you think its wrong smartass?"

Um, YouTube says you were responding to one of my comments, but you didn't quote what you were talking about, so there's no way to tell what you meant by "it".
