The Large Hadron Collider (LHC for short) is the largest particle accelerator in the world. In this experiment, physicists at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN) do collide subatomic particles (mostly protons, one of the constituents of the atomic nucleus) at selected points. These recorded particles resulting from collisions to study the elements of the material from which is made the universe, including ourselves, and their interactions.

Two beams of subatomic particles Family hadrons (protons or lead ions) circulate in opposite directions inside the circular accelerator, storing energy at a time. By entering the two beams head-on collision at a speed close to that of light at very high energies, the LHC will recreate the conditions that existed just after the Big Bang.

It is located on the Franco-Swiss border near Geneva, and is composed of a ring 27 kilometers in circumference located 100 meters underground.

In the following reports, you will know more about this called "God machine".

Opened in 2008 and, after a premature failure, launched back in December 2009, the LHC is a tunnel in a circle a hundred feet underground near Geneva and with a length of 27 kilometers.

What is? Within it, scientists can make two subatomic particles reach 99.9% of the speed of light-nothing can travel faster than light as Einstein stated, not even neutrinos, something recently-shown. At any given time, it causes the two particles collide, releasing a large amount of energy. An explosion tiny scale that reproduces the effects of the Big Bang. Ie the beginning of the universe observed firsthand by humans.

However, in the list of most wanted fugitives in the LHC is a particularly elusive element whose existence has only been theorized: the Higgs boson or 'Divine Particle'. His name sounds frequently in the news and read in newspapers, although many people ignore LHC- as happens with what could be or what would it matter. The complexity of explanation led in 1993 to the then British Science Minister William Waldegrave launching an unprecedented challenge: "I have not decided if my department will fund the proposed experiments to search for the Higgs boson, but I promise to fund a champagne bottle anyone who can tell me what is.
