  • This virtual field trip links the school of Eric Chen, Grand Prize winner of the 2013 +Google Science Fair, with CERN physicists and engineers, who will showcase the laboratory and answer questions.
    Students from the Quest Research Programme of the Canyon Crest Academy high school in San Diego have the opportunity to look behind the scenes of this world famous particle physics laboratory as part of Eric's prize.
    Find out more about Eric's research: • Video
    Inspired, then check out CERN's beam line for schools competition: plus.google.com... #bl4s

    why was cylinder chosen as the shape for CMS

    • @StevenGoldfarb
      @StevenGoldfarb 10 років тому

      Most collider experiments are cylindrical. One wants to capture all the particles coming from the collision and wants even efficiency for the transverse momentum of the particles. Even ATLAS, which features toroidal magnets, is fairly cylindrical in shape.

    wont such powerful collisions affect the environment?

    • @StevenGoldfarb

      Two protons colliding in the centre of ATLAS or CMS have the energy of a mosquito. That energy dissipates in the detector. There are no effects on the environment from that.

    if new elements can be seen through the experiments how can you contain that element and how do you handle the information gathered from the obersvation

      "New" particles are produced in the collisions. Most decay instantly or live for a very short time. I say "new" because they have always existed in nature, but decay because they are massive. They leave traces in the detectors, giving us clues as to what happened in the collision.

    It's a shame with all the scientific people on this site, that they can't fix the sound feed.....very distracting. Come on guys.....get it together!!!

      "All this(these) bright minds. . ." Well, ppl at CERN are schooled at particle physics, rather than how to transfer image and sound. There are no ALLROUND GENIUSES, except in the Hollywood movies ;) get it!? Take it easy. . .

    can scientist create different environments from that of our current state of the cosmos.? if that makes sense

    • @StevenGoldfarb
      @StevenGoldfarb 10 років тому

      Our work, at least at CERN, is to measure nature and to understand it, not to manipulate it. That's for our friends in the Matrix!
