Best Regards Tom. Aren't we supposed to be sucked into mini black holes by now? Hasn't it be in operation for several hours? Karl From what I've read in various science publications, e.g. Science News, cosmic rays rourinely strike our atmosphere with more energy than the LHC will be able to produce. So the thinking is that any risk of the LHC creating little black holes that swallow the earth is much less than the risk of cosmic rays doing the same. So much less that if it was going to happen it already would have. And speaking of little black holes, current thought is that below a certain radius black holes radiate faster than they consume and so disappear quickly. ISTR that this radiation is called "Hawking Radiation" in honor of Stephen Hawking. ERS |

The last I heard, (waiting with baited breath), is a proton was blasted
clockwise at high speed and the detectors detected and processed the data. The next step is to blast on counter-clockwise, (anti-clockwise for some of us), and then do both going against each other. Verification trials. Then real work and fun begin. H0! The Texas Ring would have been in use by now but there were to many social programs and highways to somewhere or no where to do. I hope it could be brought back to life and continue on. So much of the cost was already borne. So much to learn and to teach the next generations. Most people don't realize that these big babies do after hours work making medicine for cancer patients. Right now in a un-suspecting side yard to a plant in Santa Clara is an accelerator that is doing that. The target is several feet from a highway and a big Fry's.

Best Regards Tom. ============ As an update for the people that were waiting for the "black hole solution" to the current economic problems ------- From Times Online September 9, 2008 Apocalypse now? 30 days when the world didn't end Will the LHC cause the world to end? Here are some other occasions when reports of the Earth's demise have proven to be premature.. Michael Moran The beginning of the first serious experiments using CERN’s Large Hadron Collider this week has given rise to a welter of fanciful scare stories about the obliteration of the Earth by a pocket black hole or a cascade reaction of exotic particles. Similar predictions have been made around the launch of several other particle physics experiments and even the first atomic weapons tests. Predictions of the world’s end are nothing new though. We’ve picked out 30 of the most memorable apocalypses that never, for one reason or another, quite happened. snip 1: 2,800BC: The oldest surviving prediction of the world’s imminent demise was found inscribed upon an Assyrian clay tablet which stated: "Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end. Bribery and corruption are common." snip 30: Mar 21, 2008. A minor Christian sect The Lords' Witnesses announced this date for the end of days on their website, which is still online. snip --------- for entire article click on http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/com...cle4717864.ece Unka' George [George McDuffee] ------------------------------------------- He that will not apply new remedies, must expect new evils: for Time is the greatest innovator: and if Time, of course, alter things to the worse, and wisdom and counsel shall not alter them to the better, what shall be the end?

Karl- Hide quoted text - Where I work (okay, it's not really work when I have so much fun) there's a radiation effects lab that I support on occasion. Linear accelerators, dynamatrons, flash x-rays, and other nifty stuff. Most of the work is testing equipment and components that will find their way into the nasty environment of space (as well as aircraft, high altitude electric trains, etc.) At the end of the year if there's time and the flash x-ray is set up right, the operator makes some of those panels. They're called Lichtenberg patterns. We give them away to retirees and such. Very cool. Some of the other projects we work on are even cooler, but that's another topic. We've been following CERN with some interest, although some of the terminology escapes us lowly lab techs. The scale, cost, and energies involved are purely mind boggling, and we work with some pretty high numbers already. |

It was pretty fascinating to note that Cern went on line..and there were a bunch of large earthquakes not long afterwards around the world.
