Russian Doctors Suggest Hadron Colider Can Cure Cancer
Written by admin on April 10, 2009 in Technology
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and highest-energy particle accelerator, built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) with the intention of testing various predictions of high-energy physics. The LHC, which had been in the works since 1984, was the creative output of more than 2,000 physicists, (700 from Russia) and from hundreds of universities and laboratories in 34 countries and was completed last year at a cost of $5.8 billion dollars.
The date of the onset of the LHC has to be in error because the SSC in Texas was still in the works till 1993 when congress pulled the funding.
Useful post, great read anyway very interesting.
I think your domain name is interesting! Was it expensive?
