    If the LHC becomes obsolete, Musk should have the government give him $5 billion to buy it. He could put some of his subway cars in it and charge Hollywood and NFL entertainers pay him millions of dollars for a ride.
But since Trump is President, he would tell Musk to hit the road.

    > “But this new experiment uses something known as plasma wakefield acceleration  and it takes up just 10 metres or 33 feet of space.”
Could put one in my basement. Design it to create a black hole to suck liberals into an eternity of darkness, not that they would notice any difference.
Preliminary design to begin tomorrow.

    Wonderful! Now I can sleep at night without fretting over the size of particle accelerators.

    Compact, inexpensive high-energy accelerators are kind of like Pandora’s Box.

    Im trying to figure out how they got AWAKE out of Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment. Advanced blah blah WAKEfield blah blah? Liberals love acronyms and its a sure bet a liberal committee made this one up. If they were honest it would be APDPWFAE. Because it is a Wake Field not Wakefield which is a place.

    Read somewhere that the arc on a typical plasma arc cutter runs 45,000 degrees.

    The climate change scientists should take a look at this and see what the folks at CERN have done. Develop a theory, state a hypothesis, design a reproducible experiment, analyze the results and determine if the results support the hypothesis or disprove it. Repeat and refine the hypothesis and theory to match the results obtained. You know, the scientific method.
As opposed to how climate change science works, ie. develop a theory then jigger the results until they match the theory.
