CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been restarted. The LHC has been restarting today since 2013 when protons began to return to tunnel of 27 kilometers for the first time.
After being shut down for two years, the world's largest particle accelerator is back in operation. THE procedure it was done by activating the two proton beams moving in opposite directions inside the 27 km tunnel. Initially, the energy is low, but CERN scientists hope that within the next few months the particle accelerator will reach its full potential.
Real conflicts will not begin for at least a month, but when they start they will produce twice the energy that LHC has reached in its first run, according to the BBC.
O Rolf Heuer, ο γενικός διευθυντής του CERN, το οποίο λειτουργεί τον LHC, δήλωσε στους μηχανικούς και τους επιστήμονες στο εργαστήριο: "Συγχαρητήρια Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ όλους ... Τώρα αρχίζουν τα δύσκολα με την έναρξη των work."
The director of his accelerator CERN Frédérick Bordry, said: "After two years of efforts, the LHC is in excellent condition. But the most important step is yet to come. We will see the binding energy increase to new record levels."
CERN projects live information for the course of the process, which so far does not seem to be problematic.
The protons as mentioned above are injected into a relatively low energy. But in the next few months, scientists are hoping to gradually increase energy to 13 trillions of electrons, twice as much as they were during the first LHC operation.
From 8: 30 GMT today, scientists have begun to pass the proton beam through every part of the huge tunnel.
The Great Andron Accelerator is very close to identifying the Higgs particle, which so far has not been seen. The confirmation of the existence of the Higgs particle will explain how elementary particles gain mass in the Higgs model.
