Particle accelerator CERN restarted after two years of maintenance – NU.nl

With the Large Hadron Collider in 2012 identified include the putative Higgs boson particle.

The particle accelerator located in a 26.6 kilometer tunnel on the border between Switzerland and France. Its construction has cost around EUR 5 billion.

The next few years scientists hope including the existence of so-called dark matter to prove in practice.

The Higgs boson particle is named after the British physicist Peter Higgs, who in 1964 came out with the theory that such a particle must exist.

The Higgs boson is so important, it’s also called the God particle is called. Mass affects how particles behave. Higgs bosons therefore determine ultimately what we see around us, from the smallest creatures to the largest galaxies
