Brian Cox and Jonathan Caner
Jonathan Caner says quantum mechanics is a model, it has a relative scientific truth and we will hold to it for as long as it's born up by experiment. The LHC is the largest scientific experiment ever attempted - 27 kilometres into conference below surface of Geneva. We accelerate protons to 99.999999% the speed of light; they go around 11,000 times a second. Last night I was working late on my own rudimentary Hadronka-Lider machine built to achieve particle acceleration that would cost some 83 billion dollars! So I don't suppose you've got that five-o-thousand dollar test in order to observe this phenomenon? Well, last night I was
