Q. What happens when atoms are smashed?
What happens when you split an atom? The energy released in splitting just one atom is miniscule. However, when the nucleus is split under the right conditions, some stray neutrons are also released and these can then go on to split more atoms, releasing more energy and more neutrons, causing a chain reaction.
Q. What happens when you smash gold particles together?
Every atom in the universe likes heat. They like heat so much that atoms and subatomic particles vibrate and move around when they’re hot. When they smash gold particles together, for a split second, the temperature reaches 7.2 trillion degrees Fahrenheit. That’s hotter than a supernova explosion.

Q. What would happen if CERN exploded?
Given the amount of energy that Nature has stored in the matter of your body, your detonation would change the course of history and kill millions, leaving no trace of you except in the photons of energy that escape into space and the vibrations and heat captured by the planet.
Q. Why is there a statue of Shiva at CERN?
Why does CERN have a statue of Shiva? The Shiva statue was a gift from India to celebrate its association with CERN, which started in the 1960’s and remains strong today. In the Hindu religion, Lord Shiva practiced Nataraj dance which symbolises Shakti, or life force.
Q. Is India a Member State of CERN?
Cyprus, Estonia and Slovenia are Associate Member States in the pre-stage to Membership. Croatia, India, Lithuania, Pakistan, Turkey and Ukraine are Associate Member States.
Q. What is a CERN email address?
By default, a CERN Mailbox is provided with most CERN Accounts, associated with a CERN address like [email protected]

Q. How do I access my CERN email?
Access your mail settings: set your primary email address or set an address where your emails will be forwarded to. Get the information of your mailbox, customize your vacation message. Find the CERN contact you are looking for by using the CERN Phonebook.
Q. What does CERN stand for?
European Council for Nuclear Research
Q. Does the God particle exist?
In 2012, scientists confirmed the detection of the long-sought Higgs boson, also known by its nickname the “God particle,” at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the most powerful particle accelerator on the planet. This particle helps give mass to all elementary particles that have mass, such as electrons and protons.
Q. Is CERN still operating?
CERN’s atom smasher will restart for the first test beams in May 2021, two months later than planned, and operate from March 2022 until the end of 2024.
Q. Has CERN made antimatter?
In 1995, CERN announced that it had successfully brought into existence nine hot antihydrogen atoms by implementing the SLAC/Fermilab concept during the PS210 experiment. The experiment was performed using the Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR), and was led by Walter Oelert and Mario Macri.
Q. Is there any antimatter on Earth?
The Big Bang should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter in the early universe. But today, everything we see from the smallest life forms on Earth to the largest stellar objects is made almost entirely of matter. Comparatively, there is not much antimatter to be found.
