CERN announced this morning that the Large Hadron Collider has broken its own world record for proton beam energy. At just after 5:20 a.m. CET, beams circulated in both directions in the LHC at an energy of 3.5 trillion electron volts (TeV). This is the last major milestone on the way to proton collisions at 7 TeV, which will mark the start of the LHC research program.

The band in the middle is the side of the unfolded cylinder , and the two black circles are the top and bottom . The coloured blobs show the particles of light that were seen by the photon detectors that cover the inside of the cylinder , and the colours depend on the time when the light arrived . there The rings that you can see formed by the coloured blobs are from the Sonic Booooum of light that made by the the particles that are created by the neutrino in Super-K . There are three rings the first two
