It’s like trying to find out the fundamental origin of reality – and I really like the rigor of it,” she said. ![]() “On some level, it’s really a search for the truth. The largest accelerator currently active is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland, operated by the CERN. European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva (Switzerland) 247 p. But she says that she initially lacked the confidence to think that she could excel in the field. physics scenarios for the soft physics of a supercollider of 10-20 TeV cms. The world’s largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, Switzerland, contains a host of experiments that seek to answer the unanswered questions about the nature of the. “I’ve just always been interested in science, and I got interested in physics when I was in high school,” said Burt. Its business is fundamental physics, finding out what the Universe is made of and how it works. CERN, the physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland, is well known as the home of the world’s biggest particle smasher, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). She recalls how she and her brother acted like “mad scientists,” combining household products to see what kind of reaction it might cause. CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is one of the world’s largest and most respected centres for scientific research. “I had a chemistry set from when I was 6 or 7 years old,” said Burt on a recent visit to the Cheney campus. After the Hadron Super Collider in Switzerland few thought anyone would ever attempt a larger Collider but Cytron corporation, with a consortium of. Supercollider: Mathias Magnus Hauser & Andi Hofmann. ![]() Burt was destined to be a scientist, running home experiments from an early age. SUPERCOLLIDER is the combination of sound (Mathias Hauser) and image (Andi. Yet that’s where she found herself the past couple of years, living in France and working in neighboring Switzerland on a series of cutting-edge experiments in the field of particle physics as part of an international team inside the CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) underground “supercollider.”īurt’s path has been an outlier, but it was put into motion by a chain reaction that played out much like the forces she now studies. Physicist Kira Burt ’11, BS physics, only dreamed that one day she’d be working at the largest, longest-running collaborative science experiment in the world.
