Large Hadron Collider Tiny particles called protons are accelerated inside a huge circular tunnel using electric fields, while powerful magnets guide their path. When they Collide at speeds close to light, energy turns into new particles.

THE “GOD PARTICLE” THAT MAKES EVERYTHING HAVE MASS The Higgs boson is the tiny particle that gives all other particles their mass, and scientists chased it for decades. To find it, CERN built the Large Hadron Collider, a 17 mile underground ring that smashes protons together at crazy speeds. In 2012, two huge experiments finally spotted it, proving one of physics’ biggest theories. Source: glamour_physics

Magnetic mirrors trap the particles inside a central region, increasing the chance they will collide and fuse. This led to the idea of the Tokamak, a never ending circular path. Unfortunately this led to new plasma instabilities.

It’s the #LHC drone patrol 🫡 In this #PhotoOfTheWeek we’re treating you to a tour of the 27 km-long Large Hadron Collider tunnel. Earlier this month, beams of protons were injected into the Large Hadron Collider for the first time in 2025, one of the many steps that lead to the beginning of the #physics season, when the CERN experiments start collecting data on collisions at the highest energy. #BeamTime Stable beams at 6.8 TeV and particle collisions have now returned to the LHC, marking the start of the #physics season. Stay tuned for more #ParticlePhysics news. Find out more:

How small is a proton, really? You already know that atoms and the particles inside them are tiny. But they are SO MUCH SMALLER than most people think... Look at a single strand of your hair. Now imagine that hair is as big across as the entire Earth is wide. The size of a single cell inside your hair would be like the distance from Paris to Rome. A protein inside that cell would be like 6 soccer fields across. An atom inside that protein would be like one school bus across. The nucleus at the center of that atom would be like the width of a grain of rice. And the protons within that nucleus? They’d be like grains of salt. So, a proton compared to the WIDTH OF YOUR HAIR is like a grain of salt compared to the ENTIRE EARTH. And protons are what scientists are send flying around at nearly the speed of light to smash into each other inside particle colliders like the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. It’s incredible we can do this. As humans, we only experience a tiny slice of the full scale of reality. But there is so much more! If you like optimistic science and tech stories, follow for more of our show Huge If True.

In particle accelerators, beams of particles are focused and fired forward at almost the speed of light. But how are those particles controlled? @suziesheehy explains.

A 4.0 X-Class Solar Flare just blasted off from AR4274, BOOMSHAKALAKA! This blasted high-energy ions (protons, alpha particles, electrons) towards Earth along with a large mass of plasma into space. There is a slight Earth-directed component to this CME, weak impact in ~3 days.

Three Indian teenagers may have just solved one of the world’s biggest water problems… using tamarind seeds. They built a low-cost solution using tamarind seed powder and magnets to remove invisible micro plastic particles from water. When CJI like misguiding people are trying to woo ...our Gen Z is actually at the next level KUDOS 💕💕

Hal Puthoff (1994) explains zero-point fluctuations. "The particles fluctuations generate the fields. The fields cause the particles to fluctuate. And you can do the calculation and show that accounts for where the vacuum fluctuations come from. It's a giant cosmological feedback system." The Universe is a sea of energy.

Tiny particles floating in our air. This visualization shows how tiny particles called aerosols move through Earth's atmosphere from August 1 to September 14, 2024, using NASA's Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) model. These particles, which include sea salt, dust, smoke, and sulfates, can travel thousands of miles and affect air quality and visibility far from their original sources. By tracking these movements, NASA helps communities prepare for changes in air quality and visibility while advancing our understanding of Earth's complex atmospheric system. Watch the complete video:

🚨🌎 Bill Gates - “There are also techniques, that people are reluctant to talk about, which involves spraying particles into the atmosphere to block the sunlight - what’s called so the radiation management” It’s really not a coincidence that over the last five years everyone’s posting clips of particles being sprayed into the atmosphere.

The double-slit experiment is a key demonstration in quantum physics that reveals the strange behavior of particles like electrons and photons. In the experiment, particles are fired at a barrier with two slits, and a screen records where they land. If both slits are open and no measurement is made, the particles form an interference pattern, like waves overlapping, even when sent one at a time. This suggests that each particle passes through both slits at once in a state called superposition. However, if detectors are placed at the slits to observe which path the particle takes, the interference pattern disappears. The particles then behave like classical objects, going through one slit or the other. This change in behavior simply from observing the system is known as the observer effect, and it highlights a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics: measurement affects the outcome. The experiment challenges our understanding of reality, showing that at the quantum level, particles don't have definite states until they are observed 🤓
