Scienze museum Exhibition’s Collider LHC

London Scienze museum – step inside the world’s greatest experiment13 November 2013 – 6 May 2014. Buried deep under the border between Switzerland and France, CERN’s Large Hadron Collider is the work of ten thousand men and women from across the globe, united in their quest to uncover the fundamental building blocks of our universe. The LHC is the largest and most powerful particle accelerator ever built. It took international teams numbering in the thousands to design, construct and operate the 27 km collider and its four giant particle detectors. All this great work and try to chase the Higgs Higg.

 

In 1964 Robert Brout, Francois Englert, Gerald Guralnik, Richard Hagen, Tom and Peter Higgs , put forward a bold new idea to exsplain how fundamental particles acquired mass. Higgs suggested that if they were right, a new particle should exist. After 50 years in July 2012 that simple idea is become reality, thanks to the particle accelerator LHC at CERN in Geneva it was seen for the first time the Higgs Boson. This whole story you can see and a greate experience at the science museum, where were mounted original pieces of the LHC machine, an extraordinary journey into the secrets of the material. he Higgs Boson is the most sought-after prize in particle physics, representing a crucial missing piece of evidence for the Standard Model, the most widely accepted theory on how the Universe works.

They show a signal of the Higgs with a mass of between 115 and 135 Gigaelectronvolts (GeV), which fits with the “hints” at a mass of 125 GeV announced by the LHC last December. The 2012 LHC run schedule was designed to deliver the maximum possible quantity of data to the experiments before the ICHEP conference, and with more data delivered between April and June 2012 than in the whole 2011 run, the strategy has been a success. Furthermore, the experiments have been refining their analysis techniques to improve their efficiency in picking out Higgs-like events from the millions of collisions occurring every second.
