The Highest Energy Machine on the Earth to Solve the Biggest Puzzles of the Universe
A talk from EMF 2022 by Alexander Belyaev
On Friday June 3, 2022 at – in Stage B
The largest and the highest energy scientific device - the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is currently in operation at CERN.
This machine is unique in many respects:
- It is the most powerful microscope, which can probe the distance one million times smaller than the size of the proton
- It can reproduce conditions of the hot Early Universe with the temperature billion times higher than in the core of the sun, corresponding to a picosecond after the Big Bang
This uniqueness gives the LHC opportunity to resolve the biggest puzzles of the Universe:
- to find the origin of Matter-Antimatter asymmetry – the origin of planets and starts
- to Shed a light on the origin of Dark Matter and Dark Energy, 95% of which the Universe is
made of (stars and planets contribute only 5% to it !)
- to give us the answer on what is the ultimate theory which drives this Universe – at micro and
macro scales.
In the presentation I will explain the exciting details of the Large Hadron Collider and how it helps to solve the most challenging problems of particle physics and cosmology – from micro to macro scales.
