Colliding Particles is a web film series about the Hadron Collider and physicists' quest to Òhunt the Higgs.Ó The Higgs Boson is an elusive particle, and its observation would help explain the origin of mass in the universe. This particle is the reason that the Large Hadron Collider was built, the biggest and fastest particle accelerator in the world, in an attempt to address some of the most fundamental questions of physics. Colliding Particles documents the hopes and experiments of physicists at work on the Collider. The series focuses on three particle physicists: Gavin Salam, Jonathan Butterworth, and Adam Davison, as well as the host of researchers and scientists behind the greatest physics experiment in the world. We watch as they fire up the collider for the first time and fire protons through 27 km of tunnels. The series captures the excitement, as well as the problems that arise. Viewers are given a glimpse of the human side of scientific research, while learning something about physics, and the universe, in the process. MORE
