Particle Collider Tapestries

Large Hadron Collider sern art poster.

A beautifully simple mathematical equation – The standard model lagrangian. Expanded out in all its gory details, this equation allows you to calculate everything other than Gravity that happens in the universe. If you want to know why the sky is blue, why nuclei stick together, in principle, you can calculate it from this equation. Check out more physics T shirts here

Large Hadron Collider LHC. Original concept and great gift Idea for Students, Scientist, Scientific researchers, Physicists, PhD, Teachers, Professors, science lovers, etc.

Have you had an accident at work? Call the particle collision helpline. A design with an illustration showing two particles colliding as they do at CERN's large hadron collider.

Simulated detection of Higgs boson. Computer simulation of an event in which the decay of a Higgs boson produces four muons (white tracks). The muons, along with countless other particles (yellow tracks and red dots), are produced in a head-on collision between two protons. The Higgs boson is a localised clustering in the Higgs field that permeates space; local distortions of the field are thought to be the way that particles gain mass. This image shows how the Higgs boson might be seen in the CMS detector on the Large Hadron Collider, which is due to start operation at CERN, the European particle physics laboratory outside Geneva, in 2007-2009.

Researcher standing in one end of the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) detector at CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) near Geneva, Switzerland, during maintenance. The CMS detector sits around the large hadron collider (LHC), CERN's highest energy particle accelerator. In July 2012 it was announced that the CMS and ATLAS (a torodial LHC apparatus) experiments at the LHC had detected a Higgs boson particle for the first time. The Higgs boson is thought to give other particles mass.

Higgs boson. Computer artwork showing a Higgs boson particle, which was formed by the collision of two protons, decaying into two photons. The Higgs boson is thought to give other particles mass. The first sighting of it was announced by scientists at CERN on 4th July 2012.

This physics parody saying makes a funny design to wear on a tee.

Higgs boson event. Graphic of a transverse section through a detector showing one of the numerous particle collision events recorded during the search for the Higgs boson. This event (a proton-proton collision) was recorded with the ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC Apparatus) detector on 10 June 2012. The collision produced two muon pairs (red tracks). This is part of the enormous amount of data collected to enable confirmation of the theories being tested. In the Standard Model, the Higgs boson is used to explain why particles have mass. CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) announced the Higgs boson discovery on 4 July 2012.
