CERN completes transition to lead-ion running at the LHC


An image of one of the first lead-ion collisions seen by the ALICE experiment on 7 November.

Four days is all it took for the LHC operations team at CERN to complete the transition from protons to lead ions in the LHC. After extracting the final proton beam of 2010 on 4 November, commissioning the lead-ion beam was underway by early afternoon. First collisions were recorded at 00:30 CET on 7 November, and stable running conditions marked the start of physics with heavy ions at 11:20 CET today.

“The speed of the transition to lead ions is a sign of the maturity of the LHC,” said CERN Director General Rolf Heuer. “The machine is running like clockwork after just a few months of routine operation.”

with apologies to Country Joe And The Fish - I Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die Rag

Well, come on all of you big bang brained men,
Uncle Shiva needs your help again.
He's got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Cernscam
So put down your physics books and pick up a lead ion gun,
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.

And it's one quark, two quark, three quark,
What are we ion lead slinging for ?
Don't ask me, I don't give a neutronized damn,
Next stop is what's left of Kingdom Come;
And it's five quark, six quark, seventh level of hell quark,
Blow up the pearly gates,
Well there ain't no time-space to wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

spiders might spin webs that trap flies and use them for food

but as far as i know, they don't make a habit of spreading bloody carnage over most of the face of the planet whenever they feel in the mood

Large Hadron Collider (LHC) generates a 'mini-Big Bang'

The Large Hadron Collider has successfully created a "mini-Big Bang" by smashing together lead ions instead of protons.

The scientists working at the enormous machine on Franco-Swiss border achieved the unique conditions on 7 November.

The experiment created temperatures a million times hotter than the centre of the Sun

"This process took place in a safe, controlled environment, generating incredibly hot and dense sub-atomic fireballs with temperatures of over ten trillion degrees, a million times hotter than the centre of the Sun.

"At these temperatures even protons and neutrons, which make up the nuclei of atoms, melt resulting in a hot dense soup of quarks and gluons known as a quark-gluon plasma."
