  2. LHCb experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LHCb_experiment

    The LHCb (Large Hadron Collider beauty) experiment is a particle physics detector experiment collecting data at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. [ 1 ] LHCb is a specialized b-physics experiment, designed primarily to measure the parameters of CP violation in the interactions of b- hadrons (heavy particles containing a bottom quark).

  3. Safety of high-energy particle collision experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_of_high-energy...

    A simulated particle collision in the LHC. The safety of high energy particle collisions was a topic of widespread discussion and topical interest during the time when the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and later the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—currently the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator —were being ...

  4. ATLAS experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATLAS_experiment

    The ATLAS experiment was proposed in its current form in 1994, and officially funded by the CERN member countries in 1995. Additional countries, universities, and laboratories have joined in subsequent years. Construction work began at individual institutions, with detector components then being shipped to CERN and assembled in the ATLAS ...

    MEDICIS. Produces isotopes for medical purposes. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world's largest and highest-energy particle accelerator. [ 1 ][ 2 ] It was built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) between 1998 and 2008 in collaboration with over 10,000 scientists and hundreds of universities and laboratories across ...

  7. ALICE experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALICE_experiment

    ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is one of nine detector experiments at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The experiment is designed to study the conditions that are thought to have existed immediately after the Big Bang by measuring the properties of quark-gluon plasma.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CERN

    The 12 founding member states of CERN in 1954. [13]The convention establishing CERN [14] was ratified on 29 September 1954 by 12 countries in Western Europe. [15] The acronym CERN originally represented the French words for Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire ('European Council for Nuclear Research'), which was a provisional council for building the laboratory, established by 12 ...

  9. Quark–gluon plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark–gluon_plasma

    Quark–gluon plasma (QGP or quark soup) is an interacting localized assembly of quarks and gluons at thermal (local kinetic) and (close to) chemical (abundance) equilibrium. The word plasma signals that free color charges are allowed. In a 1987 summary, Léon Van Hove pointed out the equivalence of the three terms: quark gluon plasma, quark ...
