Ok, here's the explanation in layman terms:
You have a proton, that's a tiny atom without any electron... Like a stripped atom. Then you accelerate it to the speed of light through a very cold tunnel and make it crash with another tiny nude atom. As a result of the impact both of the atoms will "go boom" and some guys with a lot of computers will see what happens. It's like a train crash, but smaller.

Weren´t they like... not going to get anywhere near the speed of light?
Wait, I´ll just google it :P EDIT: never mind, dunno where I read about that. Acording to the LHC site they will accelerate protons to 0.999997828 times the speed of light. That´ll produce a ton of energy... for the scale they are working with at least... |
