My time machine. It's not a Delorean.

Back to Kilminster's research

Back to UZH CMS Physics analyses

This is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN.  By reproducing the conditions of the universe as it was 13.8 billion years ago, we can see just what was happening back then.  The LHC takes us back in time to 10^-10 seconds, less than a millionth of a second after the universe started.  At that time, all the known particles of the standard model were changing into each other.
