LHC nears restart after repairs(Higgs Boson Update)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/8364964.stm
Quote:
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) could restart as early as this weekend after more than a year of repairs.
Officials have avoided giving an exact date for sending beams of protons around the 27km (17 mile) circular tunnel which houses the collider.

So maybe the most expensive experiment can finally take place.

Re: LHC nears restart after repairs
They will run it again and it'll probably break again so don't count on it downquark

Re: LHC nears restart after repairs
A hellva lot more news..
CBC News - Technology & Science - Beam sent around Large Hadron Collider
Quote:
The operators of the Large Hadron Collider have successfully sent a beam of protons around the ring of the world's largest particle collider.
It is the first time the Large Hadron Collider, or LHC, has been operational since September 2008, when an electrical connection in the collider's magnets melted, causing a tonne of super-cooled liquid helium to leak into the tunnel.
CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, announced the success on Twitter on Friday afternoon ET.
"We have completed the ring!" read the post on the social networking and microblogging site.
