LHC FTW.

The god particle,

You've probably seen this but I found it amazing.

[benny!]

Next life I wanna be a physician.

You probably ment a physicist who studies physics, the other guy is a medical practitioner, you know doctors and such

Some of that stuff they deal with is quite mind blowing.

[benny!]

ROFL. Yeah, of course I meant physicist. Sorry, my fault.

[hellfire]

Does anyone actually understand what those cern-guys are doing?

[slinks]

they're making world-destroying evil schemes cool again

[benny!]

Somehow they research some basic behaviour of small
particles or so ? AFAIK they expect that the results from
their research will revolutionate the whole physics laws
as we know them now.

Maybe they can proof the big bang theory or so ?

But what do I know - I cannot even spell the name of
their profession correctly ;-)

They never even knew for sure what would happen when they turned the LHC on, as far as I know, they thought that they were going to make antimatter, I thought that Geneva would probably dissapear into a black hole.

That could have been the result, if it wasn't because the machine broke down when they turned it on. Noone really knows for sure what will happen which is why the scientist community is a bit divided on the issue, some seem to think that it will generate a black hole, others think nothing much will happen, at least not something we will be able to detect. I think they are scheduled for a new test soon though, but I can't remember when this test would be.

They already have pretty good models, the goal is to either proof or disproof them.
The whole quantum-physics-stuff with bosons, fermions and half-integer-spins is still a bit out of my (and probably most others') understanding, though.
That bbc-documentation makes it look like some sort of voodoo, but the opposite is the case.

<JOKE>

BOOOOOOOOOOORING!!!!.... "Another World" is a very old game! Why do they like to play it again?

Game intro sountrack would fit very well, we just missed the Ferrari!!!

</JOKE>

[benny!]

Damn ... how I love Another World. One of the few games
I played through several times!!! Thanks for bringing back
some cool memories, moro!
