Higgs in Amsterdam

And there he was: the one and only Higgs. Aka professor Peter W. Higgs, aka the titular hero of our recently premiered documentary film, aka the namesake of the H-mechanism, H-field and H-boson – aka the magic triangle in particle physics – aka the special guest at the last IDFA-screening of our H-film.

The Tunnel

lhc.flv

27 km long tube
9.300 magnets inside
10 080 tonnes of liquid nitrogen

the world’s largest fridge (-271.3°C (1.9 K)), even colder than outer space
100 000 times hotter than the heart of the Sun (when two beams of protons collide)
At full power, trillions of protons will race around the LHC accelerator ring 11 245 times a second, travelling at 99.99% the speed of light.
