We previously reported that the Large Hadron Collider was operational, but at 3:58 PDT yesterday the Large Hadron Collider successfully collided subatomic particles together at three times the highest energy levels previously recorded.  The new record to beat for smashing really tiny things together is 7 TeV (trillion electron volts).
The project cost CERN over 6 billion dollars and 14 years to build and is designed to recreate the conditions that existed in the first few moments of the big bang.  Using the data gathered yesterday, scientist hope the be able …

The Large Hadron Collider had some set backs last year with cracked magnets and massive power failure.  Now it seems like everything is hunky dory in the elusive search for the higgs boson.  A report by MIT, CERN and the KFKI Research Institute for Particle and Nuclear Physics in Budapest, Hungary have stated that the LHC is currently producing an “unexpectedly” high number of particles called mesons, subatomic particles composed of one quark and one antiquark. The paper was published in the Journal of High Energy Physics. I give it …
