Question

Did you know? The Large Hadron Collider at CERN is a 27 km circular tunnel, 100 m below the France-Switzerland border. Protons are accelerated to 99.9999991% the speed of light and collide 600 million times per second — needed to find the Higgs.

Accepted Answer

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN is a 27 km circular tunnel, 100 m below the France-Switzerland border. Protons are accelerated to 99.9999991% the speed of light and collide 600 million times per second — needed to find the Higgs.

De Large Hadron Collider bij CERN is een 27 km lange ringtunnel, 100 m onder de Frans-Zwitserse grens. Protonen worden tot 99,9999991% van de lichtsnelheid versneld en botsen 600 miljoen keer per seconde — nodig om de Higgs te vinden.
