The Large Hadron Collider is a particle accelerator and collider located at CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland. It is currently under construction, but nearing completion.
The LHC is expected to become the world's largest and highest energy particle accelerator. Over 2000 physicists have worked on the development and planning of the hadron collider.
The hadron collider is in a 17 mile long tunnel located underground.

Geneva, 18 December 2009. At its 153rd session today, the CERN[1] Council heard that the Large Hadron Collider ended its first full period of operation in style on Wednesday 16 December. Collisions at 2.36TeV recorded since last weekend have set a new world record and brought to a close a successful first run for the world's most powerful particle accelerator. The LHC has now been put into standby mode, and will restart in February 2010...

The Large Hadron Collider is back up and running and already breaking records, with a 1.18-trillion-electron-volt beam. So what do the new numbers mean? Here's a primer on the electrons and proton beams, volts and megawatts, created and consumed by the world's most powerful proton accelerator.

The first article on proton collisions in the CERN Large Hadron Collider -- designed to provide the highest energy ever explored with particle accelerators -- has just been published. In November 2009, during the early commissioning of the LHC, two counter-rotating proton bunches were circulated concurrently for the first time in the machine.

So far, 2009 has been a much kinder year to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) than 2008 was. The gargantuan particle accelerator, sidelined for more than a year after a breakdown halted its initial run shortly after start-up in September 2008, has been steadily clearing performance benchmarks since resuming operations on November 20 of this year. In the weeks since the LHC's long-awaited reboot, the collider's operators have been putting the...

Light and matter have long been seen as separate: spirit vs. flesh, earthy vs. divine. However, according to Wilczek, physics has blurred the line between light and matter, showing that reality is far from permanent, but rather ever-changing.
