...since Lehman Brothers collapsed have been rather eventful—a presidential election, A.I.G.’s bailout, Citigroup’s bailout, a 2,000 point decrease in the Dow, Iceland becoming insolvent, a requested bailout for the Big Three automakers, and as of Monday a bona fide, American-made recession.

It’s rare for physics to make the news, but somehow the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a particle accelerator run by the CERN laboratory on the Franco-Swiss border, became a bona-fide celebrity. There hasn’t been a tube this famous since the London subway. The collider’s renown is likely because most of the news about it has been bizarre: The Wall Street Journal ran an article about physicists there studying with a comedy coach to help them think creatively. A rap about the collider reached three million views on YouTube. Rumors...
