Particle Accelerator - How Do We Detect These Particles?

particle physicists just try to solve every problem with a particle accelerator. We smash protons into a carbon target more specifically and that creates a huge spray so protons are these bound little objects of quarks which have a strong interaction. Most of the stuff that comes out is this big explosion of stuff we don't want right it's pions and cans and protons and all sorts of crap that we're not interested in. What we do is we use magnets to bend any charged particles out of the way that separates the charged and the neutral stuff.
