They are SOMEWHAT related, but quite different.

Big Bang Cosmology, first developed by Georges LeMaitre, explains why we see our Universe as we do -- because our Universe was once far more dense than it is today, and its space has been expanding ever since it began to exist.

The Large Hadron Collider has, as one of its MANY goals, to re-create this period of extremely high density, with hopes of confirming (or refuting) some of the theoretical work that has been done. If particles in the LHC act like we think they should react when at this high density, it will support our present understanding of reality at small scales. If it doesn't, the we will have to revise our hypotheses.

Do the collisions make a sound in the lhc?

I believe not. unless if 0.000000000000000000000000000188514 decibels count


What is reverse chronological causation and how does it relate to the Large Hadron Collider?

I am only answering this question because the concept is absurd and therefore amusing. You are referring to the idea presented (purely in jest, I think) that the LHC succeeds in creating a particle (the so-called "God particle") so abhorrent that a causal path from the future is created to prevent the LHC from doing this. A couple of problems here: If the LHC creates the particle, then it wasn't prevented from doing so. If it does not, then it does not, and no one need resort to time-travelling in order to explain it. Look, the LHC has had malfunctions created entirely by design flaws (Remember those? They're man-made, just like the LHC itself.) It's important to remember that people build things, and if they're as complicated as the LHC is, there is no need for nature to send back "screw-it up" particles from the future. We are perfectly capable of screwing stuff up ourselves. As evidence, I offer the fact that they recently found a piece of a baguette in an LHC magnet. Particle from the future or someone on their lunch break?


What is the only wonder still standing?

It is the speed of neutrinos. Why they are faster than the speed of light? Ckeck results of recent LHC experiments.


Big bang in 1919?

BIG Bang is a hypothesis and on the basis of cern research big bang theory was proposed.


Is the Higgs-Boson the smallest particle?

On 4 July 2012, the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider announced they had each observed a new particle in the mass region around 126 GeV. This particle is consistent with the Higgs boson predicted by the Standard Model.Well this is what the LHC is telling us. However it could be wrong, for example maybe it wasn't the Higgs, maybe it was a new particle. This all just mostly based on calculations by maths. The mass was predicted by maths. Then the LHC rounded it up and ended the search for the great God Particle.

What is the velocity of the proton in the big bang experiment?

In the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) the protons reach a speed of 99.9999991% of the speed of light which is about 1 billion kilometers per hour or 670 million miles per hour.


What happened to hordon cylinder experiment?

If you mean the LHC large hadron collider they conducted many many tests but recently failed to create in minature black hole which hurt the string theory as it may unprove it.


How much did the lhc cost?

The BBC show titled "the six billion dollar experiment" announced that the LHC will be switched on in Oct, 2007. But the schedule has slipped a year to Oct, 2008. So I guess the total cost will be around 7 billion.


How long will the lhc experiment take?

The LHC along with its four main particle detectors are designed to last ten years. Within this time it is hoped many new particles will be discovered and mysteries solved. Also during this time an upgrade to the LHC to be called the SLHC - Super Large Hadron Collider - will be built as well as upgrades to the four main particle detectors.


Was Einstein's theory of relativity ever disproved?

The latest research from CERN (LHC) has proved that a particle named Neutrino traveled faster than light. this is against the theory of relativity.


Why 2 protons are collided in lhc experiment?

Two protons are forced to collide with each other at near the speed of light to create ultra intense pressure and heat conditions. These conditions have not occurred naturally since the big bang. Scientists can measure the radiation and effects that these collisions produce to better understand the fundamentals of the universe.


Is Large Hadron Collider experiment successful?

YES! The Test was very successful, but due to a problem with the magnets on Sept. 19 2008 they have shut down the LHC it will be re-tested ( used ) In The summer Of 2009. For the test run, no black holes where detected. Also They want to see if the big bang could really happen.


What is 'The Big Bang Machine'?

The "Big Bang Machine" is a popular reference to the Large Hadron Colliderwhich scientists just refer to as the LHC. It was constructed in CERN in Switzerland (1998-2008) and is the most recent and most expensive of a line of particle accelerators designed for the sole reason of producing very high energy collisions between elementary particles, usually simply protons.The LHC acquired the moniker "Big Bang Machine" as part of the publicity process where various explanations of the purpose of the LHC were simplified for popular consumption. It was said that the result of these proton collisions would "create a state of matter present during the Early Universe." That evolved to saying things like, "just after the Big Bang." What this really means is that a few minutes after the Big Bang the energy density of the whole universe was high enough that elementary particles like protons and neutrons were not yet condensed out of the "primordial soup." With the LHC there is the possibility of getting two colliding protons into a state that was somewhat like the high energy density state that all the matter of the universe was in at an earlier time, not long after the Big Bang.The LHC is the most expensive science experiment of all time, so there is a strong effort to give it some popular appeal. (It is well past the 7 billion Euro mark, or 9 billion dollars or 6 billion pounds) In the effort of promoting the first grands experiment of the LHC the search for the HiggsBoson, the object acquired the name "The God Particle." To LHC'scredit, they did not invent the name (or misnomer), but they did not shy away from the extra attention that created.In balance, it should be noted that not all of the outlandish characterizations associated with the LHC have been to their benefit. Just before the LHC went on line, a story started to circulate that it might be able to produce a "mini black hole" that would then destroy the Earth. The storydid have a legitimate scientific core where some equations did open the possibility of such entity, but that possibilitywas highly speculative and the LHC PR response was appropriately calming.There is a long history of "big ideas" floated for the consumption of the general public in parallel with large budget scientific experiments. The Hubble Space Telescope had its share. There is no real way to judge whether there is a net benefit from the effect of popular enthusiasmfor science balanced by popular misconceptions of science and it is not something that anyone has much control over anyhow.
