ATLAS: CERN's "God Seeking" Experiment - creates black holes, multidimensions, dark matter

The Atlas program of the CERN institute is a very interesting program. . .

I found this on their website. It’s interesting stuff….trying to create black holes, access multiple dimensions, create dark matter.

No, it’s not Sci-Fi..

What is ATLAS?

ATLAS is a particle physics experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The ATLAS detector is searching for new discoveries in the head-on collisions of protons of extraordinarily high energy. ATLAS will learn about the basic forces that have shaped our Universe since the beginning of time and that will determine its fate. Among the possible unknowns are the origin of mass, extra dimensions of space, microscopic black holes, and evidence for dark matter candidates in the Universe.

What is the schedule of ATLAS?

ATLAS Schedule

Late 2009 — Startup of LHC and first event collisions at a total energy of 0.9 TeV and later at 2.36 TeV (above the previous world record).

March 2010 — Event collisions at a total energy of 7 TeV. This led to about eight months of data taking before a few weeks of heavy ion collisions and the usual winter shutdown. Many papers with early results have come as a result of the 2010 run.

March 2011 — A year of intensive data taking was followed by a few weeks of heavy ion collisions and a winter shutdown. Event collisions at a total energy of 7 TeV. (Dec. 2011 – Apr. 2012).

April 2012 — Event collisions at a total energy of 8 TeV. A year of intensive data taking will be followed by a few weeks of heavy ion collisions.

**I don’t want to sound paranoid, but a few weeks of heavy ion collisions would be going on right now….**

2013 — A long shutdown to prepare for an increase of the total energy towards 14 TeV.

Next 15-20 years — Continued data taking with publication of results on an ongoing basis.

**What’s interesting is the April 2012 entry. Data collection followed by a few weeks of heavy ion collisions. **

What is the LHC?

The protons are accelerated in opposite directions in the Large Hadron Collider, an underground accelerator ring 27 kilometres in circumference at the CERN Laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. Crashing together in the center of ATLAS, the particles will produce tiny fireballs of primordial energy. LHC recreates the conditions at the birth of the Universe – 30 million times a second. Relics of the early Universe not seen since the Universe cooled after the Big Bang 14 billion years ago will spring fleetingly to life again. The LHC is in effect a Big Bang Machine. 

SO, the internet abounds with theories about these projects being conducted during DEC 21, 2012. It would seem that they are doing testing during this time period.

If you visit the CERN website, you can easily find a pdf file that contains the 2012 schedule. There is a possible HiMatRad scheduled from Dec 17th – Dec 21. There is an Oven-refill scheduled for Dec 19th.
