The European Nuclear Research Center issued a communique on the 5th, saying that at 00:38 on the Central European time, the Large Hadron Collider Task Force reported that the collider had reached a stable beam operation mode with two bundles of 4 trillion electron volt proton beams. The collision occurred at four intersections, and the total energy of the proton beam reached 8 trillion electron volts, creating a new world record that greatly increased the potential of the collider.
The European Nuclear Research Center said that this marked the official start-up of the 2012 Large Hadron Collider to collect the maximum collision data.
Steve Miles, the center's accelerator and technical director, said that based on two years of operational experience with the highest energy of 3.5 trillion electron volts per bundle of proton beams, they have increased energy this year without affecting the collider. Although the increase in energy is small, it has doubled the chance of finding certain particles, such as the chance of finding supersymmetric particles.
The European Nuclear Research Center communique said that when the total proton beam energy reaches 8 trillion electron volts, the number of possible Higgs bosons will be much larger than the total energy of 7 trillion electron volts, but the background noise and the Higgs The possibility of obfuscation of the boson signal also increases. Therefore, to confirm or completely rule out the existence of the Higgs boson, it is necessary to operate the hadron collider for a whole year.
The Higgs boson is a basic particle predicted by the standard model of particle physics. It is the focus of the current research on particle physics and has not yet been found. In December 2011, two groups of the European Nuclear Research Center announced that there were signs of the existence of the Higgs boson in data from the Hadron Collider. Some scientists believe that the scope for finding the Higgs boson has been greatly reduced and that this year may yield results.
The Hadron Collider began operation in March this year and is expected to be shut down for a long period of time after the end of the year. It restarted in the second half of 2014 and gradually accelerated the proton beam to the highest design energy of 7 trillion electron volts.
