As time has gone on many theories have come to terms with the atom. And as technology has improved we have looked further into the atom. Scientists are now using the LHC to see if they can create a explosion with the atom by smashing particles together to see what happened when the universe began such as the big bang theory. Using this they are looking to find out the answer to what is matter? Using the LHC they are trying to create anti-matter, this anti-matter may be the size of a Golf ball and could destroy everything, but if they can create this matter it may just give the answers to what is matter and how the universe begun.

What is the name of the worlds largest high energy particle accelerator in Switzerland?
LHC - Large Hadron Collider (Hadron is a type of particle of which the protons and neutrons that make up atomic nuclei are examples.)
How large is the Large Hadron Collider?
The LHC is a total of 27 kilometres (17 miles) long, running along the French - Swiss border. It is 3.8 metres wide.
Has the Higgs boson been found yet?
We are not sure if the theorized Higgs boson is real or not. If it is, it would be provide some support to ideas about what mass (and, therefore, gravity, which is associated mass) really is. We're still looking for experimental support that the Higgs boson is real, and now that the Large Hadron Collider is up and running, all (interested) eyes are on CERN and awaiting results.
Who built the Large Hadron Collider?
It was built with funds from, and is administered by, CERN, which is a French acronym for Couseil Europeen pour la Reserche Nucleaire. The English translation is "European Council for Nuclear Research."The organization is now called the European Organization for Nuclear Research, but the original acronym has stuck.
What does CERN and how does it work?
CERN is an organisational headquaters of scientists, based in Switzerland, which houses a large hadron collider (the LHC). By smashing particles together at great speed, it's hoped that the LHC will be able to recreate the conditions present at the beginning of the universe (the big bang). The scientists are examining the microscopic collisions, which are created by shooting atoms around the huge tunnels of the LHC.

Is the Large Hadron Collider in process?
CERN's Large Hadron Collider has been repaired and is in full operation. (January 2012)
What is biggest machine in the world?
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) built by CERN near Geneva, Switzerland.
Where to find matter experiments?
Google CERN or Large Hadron Collider.
Where are some place black holes are located when they are formed?
The Large Hadron Collider in CERN
What scientific device is known as the LHC?
The LHC's full name is the Large Hadron Collider. It is a particle accelerator situated at CERN in Switzerland.
Why does the large hadron collider in CERN use big magnets?
To produce acceleration and it is also used as a type of shielding, to protect the LHC from the tests.
Did the atom collider really break?
Well it broke down. There was a leak of liquid Helium inside the collider which has put it out of operation for a couple of months. The scientists at CERN hope to have the Large Hadron Collider runnning again by March next year.
What is the world's largest machine?
the world's most amazing machine may be the human body itself

What is the biggest man made magnet and what purpose does it serve?
The one being used at the testing station of the cern Hadron Collider
How do you pronounce cern which is the hadron collider in Switzerland?
American English speakers commonly pronounce it to rhyme with burn, learn, and turn.
