Now I should confess that as [far as] I'm concerned this would be an abomination if it emitted not one particle of carbon.
And the idea here is that they are looking for a sign of a dark matter particle hitting one of their detectors.
So they go deep inside mines to find a kind of environmental silence that will allow them to hear the ping of a dark matter particle hitting their detector.
And so this is a great conceptual model to have of the world, unless you're a particle physicist.
It'd be a terrible model for a particle physicist, because they don't play with car stops, they play with these little weird particles.
I mean, nobody's ever seen a particle.
The very act of looking at a quantum particle changes it.
The engineers on the 15th floor have stopped working on their particle machine.
So these objects are like a dust particle or even smaller, so you can hardly see them.
This is me at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, which is the preeminent particle physics laboratory in the world.
So particle masses, the strengths of forces, and most importantly, the amount of dark energy would be determined by the shape of the extra dimensions.
They came from particle physics, they came from classical philology, they came from book conservation, they came from ancient mathematics, they came from data management, they came from scientific imaging and program management.
So we took it to the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory in California, which is a particle accelerator.
That a photon can manifest as a wave and a particle coincided with my deepest intuitions that people are good and bad, ideas are right and wrong.
And, you know, quantum physicists are not exactly sure what happens when the wave becomes a particle.

One of the things he raved about was that a particle accelerator experiment could go haywire and set off a chain reaction that would destroy the world.
A pragmatic particle, that's what LOL has gradually become.
Give it up for the fundamental particle that bequeaths all other fundamental particles their mass.
The Higgs boson does not share the beauty, the symmetry, the elegance, of the rest of the elementary particle world.
In 2015, the LHC will almost double the energy of the colliding protons, and these more powerful collisions will allow us to explore further the particle world, and we will certainly learn much more.
And this intrinsic energy is what we call the mass of a particle, and by discovering the Higgs boson, the LHC has conclusively proved that this substance is real, because it is the stuff the Higgs bosons are made of.
This is tiny when expressed in familiar units, because it's equal to something like 10 to the minus 22 grams, but it is large in particle physics units, because it is equal to the weight of an entire molecule of a DNA constituent.
But let's say you have sunlight hitting some particle and it's unevenly heated.
If you're a particle physicist, you want to know what happens when we smash things together.
What's happened is a particle accelerator at a huge, huge scale.
It didn't, by itself, contribute to particle physics.
Now, the particle speed is a measure of the temperature.
When a new particle accelerator came online, some people anxiously asked, could it destroy the Earth or, even worse, rip apart the fabric of space?
Steven Weinberg, the father of the standard model of particle physics, has actually flirted with this idea himself, that all possible realities actually exist.
