RE: The first steemSTEM meetup in the LHC at CERN - practical details

in #steemstem7 years ago

Well rather what's their next step. What are they aiming for now?

Well, the next step is to continue exploiting the machine for about the next 20 years, with several scheduled upgrades so that more data could be recorded.

The goal is to understand better the laws of nature and there are several puzzles that need to be investigated.

I know the newest big discovery was that God Particle, so are they going to test it out more or do something new, and when?

There is no god particle. That is a ridiculous name that should be avoided. There is instead a Higgs boson. For now, we still need to measure its properties that are badly known. And shed light on new phenomena. Those are the next steps.

I hope I answered :)
