Astronomy, Cosmology and Fundamental Physics: Proceedings of the ESO/CERN/ESA Symposium Held at Garching, Germany, 4-7 March 2002 (ESO Astrophysics Symposia)
Renactment - not actual footage of Baguette Popular Science reports that a French bird - let's call him Jean Luc Mallard - has taken out the Large Hadron Collider with a piece of bread : The bird dropped some bread on a section of outdoor machinery, eventually leading to significant over heating in parts of the accelerator. The LHC was not operational at the time of the incident, but the spike produced...
CERN Dr. Michael Dittmar, a CERN Physicist, has posted Part IV of his essay on the Future of Nuclear Energy, on the Oil Drum . In many respects Dr/ Dittmar's conclusions track the conclusions of thorium advocates. Dr. Ditmann has some interesting observations on LMFBRs. He claims that the IAEA data base for fast reactors does not present any evidence that a positive breeding gain has been obtained...
A peckish bird, believed to be an owl, briefly knocked out part of the world's biggest atom smasher by causing a chain reaction with a piece of bread, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (Cern) said yesterday.
Bird downs atom smasher : Geneva - A peckish bird briefly knocked out part of the world's biggest atom smasher by causing a chain reaction with a piece of bread, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) said on Monday. Bits of a French loaf dropped on an external electrical power supply caused a short circuit last week, triggering failsafe devices that shut down part of the cooling system...
It's always something with that Large Hydron Collider (LHC) over at the CERN laboratories outside Geneva, isn't it? Remember when we were THISCLOSE to being swallowed by a black hole last year? And how scientists later theorized that perhaps the machine was sabotaging itself FROM THE FUTURE, by going back in time and making sure that it never worked properly? Now scientists are worried about the Collider...
Nerdy science books enter a new dimension: the third. (Photo by Fons Rademakers/CERN) Stumped by what to get for that picky particle physics buff on your Hannukah list? You're in luck. CERN is about to debut a technolust-inspiring souvenir that's science lesson and work of art all in one: a pop-up book of the ATLAS detector. Folded between its covers are Geneva, both above ground and 100 meters below,...
CERN’s Large Hadron Collider is still misfiring. This time a “bit of baguette”, possibly dropped by a passing bird, is suspected of gumming up the works. I am not making this up. Is it just me, but doesn’t it seem like a $7.3 billion machine should have been designed to be baguette-proof? If not, you’re pretty [...]
A peckish bird briefly knocked out part of the world's biggest atom smasher by causing a chain reaction with a piece of bread, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) said on Monday. Bits of a French loaf dropped on an external electrical power supply caused a short circuit last week, triggering fail-safe devices that shut down part of the cooling system of the giant experiment to probe...
Another freak accident shuts down the Large Hadron Collider : The Large Hadron Collider, the world's most powerful particle accelerator, just cannot catch a break. First, a coolant leak destroyed some of the magnets that guide the energy beam. Then LHC officials postponed the restart of the machine to add additional safety features. Now, a bird dropping a piece of bread on a section of the accelerator...

You can make your own joke about batgirl and imagine that it appeared here: The title of this paper about tells you everything you need to know: "Fellatio by Fruit Bats Prolongs Copulation Time." I really cannot think of much to add there. We can all be thankful it wasn't a coconut-laden swallow: As many of you may have heard, the LHC suffered a brief temperature spike that almost caused...
Brunch Links: List of 39 House Democrats who voted against Health Care Bill ; List of 64 House Democrats who voted for Abortion Amendment . Joseph Cao, lone GOP voice in House for health care reform, made “a decision of conscience .” CERN scientist claims Large Hadron Collider may open door to another dimension . Engine tailcone falls off Delta plane, lands in Long Island . Richard Kelly...
CERN'S Large Hadron Collider has once again been shut down. No helium leak or dodgy magnets this time, either. The culprit? A speck of bread, which officials believe was once a part of a baguette thought to have been dropped by a low flying bird. I’m just sitting back and waiting for the jokes or one liners to start. But just think of the consequences if it had dropped a low flying turd.
The Large Hadron Collider’s woes have taken a faintly comic turn after the huge particle accelerator got broken by a piece of bread dropped by a passing bird. The 27-kilometer (16.8 mile) LHC suffered serious overheating in several sections after the small piece of baguette landed in a piece of equipment on the surface above the accelerator ring. Dr Mike Lamont, the LHC’s Machine Coordinator,...
As death threats preceded the startup of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) last year, one might not be surprised at foul play as testing is performed prior to the restart of the LHC. But fowl play? The LHC has been out of action for over a year, due to a helium leak that caused it to be shut down on September 19th of last year, nine days after its start-up. With the LHC repaired, scientists have been...

Large Hadron Collider - The Time Is Now! CERN's $9 billion, 17-mile long atom smasher was just turned on and we're awaiting reports on how the tests have gone. The Large Hadron Collider did experience "small electrical problems" overnight. However, these were not expected to delay the first test firing at 9:30am CEST . As such, the clockwise and counter-clockwise firing of particles should already...
