Can someone explain the purpose of this research? I'm not sure why we need so much research on bosun-higgs particles or why they are important View Quote |

Quoted:
The Higgs field gives all particles mass, and thus is one of the main reasons we exist. The Higgs particle is the quanta of the field, proving its existence. All of the properties measured so far conform beautifully with the standard model prediction given its mass. That means we have an adhoc way to explain the basic building blocks of the universe, but we don't know why they are ordered the way they are, or why they have the properties they do, especially mass, or why there's more matter than anti matter, or why there is this stuff we call dark matter covering so much of the universe, etc. So we try to learn as much as we can about the fundamental components, so that one day we might actually be able to say with some certainty that we know where the universe came from and what the meaning of life is.

So, all the hours I spent playing every release of Half-Life is coming to reality?
Awesome. Seriously USA has lost the edge in some research areas. In some, we still rule. But our innovation is waning (from a career jaded but retired early nerd). |

Quoted: Do you think they can do this? Build and operate it successfully? I don't see it happening. CERN has enormous downtime due to relatively minor issues. I can't imagine the Chinese building and operating something 5x larger. View Quote They've built or are building the largest big presses (like 80k tons or more). The US considered building some big ones to replace our 50k ton presses and decided there was no advantage to it. The 50k ton jobs do everything we need. They build entire cities... that no one lives in and crumble from neglect. Why do the Chinese do what they do? They're still mired in (literally) retarded command economy. I'm not a subject matter expert here so I'd love to hear what our literal higgs boson expert has to say on this... but my gut feeling is that China is grabbing headlines, national pride, etc... for no good cost-effective reason. |

Looking forward to the inevitable LiveLeak video of some Chinese technician getting his foot caught in it and getting zapped.

Classically idiotic communists. You would have thought that the lessons imparted by the failure of the USSR would have been learned by now.

He Chinese can even build a fucking housing complex correctly to within specs and they want to build a Collider? BWAHAHAAHAHAAA I see this coming to fruition in 2320, maybe.

So this is how we go out huh.... Knew it would be something eventually.

I was at CERN when they first proposed this. They've been doing their best to steal people away from CERN, but only having luck with Chinese nationals as far as I can tell. The 2 biggest issues they are going to have is getting the people who are capable of designing and building a machine like this to leave CERN, and the fact that although they have money and desire right now, their demographics and thus their economics are not moving in the right direction for this kind of multi decade project.

I'm not sure why we need so much research on bosun-higgs particles or why they are important Only time will tell if they can actually build it and run it. They're going to need help. CERN has treaties in place with dozens of countries which guarantees them funding and cooperation. It's really hard to do this stuff without that. |

I have faith in the ability of the Chinese to dig a twenty mile tunnel. The rest not so much. View Quote But see here! Even the Chinese don't want to use SI measurements in their science projects, they fall back on the tried and true US Customary System! |

Seems sorta unnecessary to me.
What do they gain by having their own particle collider? |
