It's a foolproof scheme for picture making: take the plot elements of favorite movies, paint the concoction with bright colors so it looks like the zazziest customized car, set it running at NASCAR speed - then add 3-D - and you have How to Train Your Dragon, the new feature from DreamWorks animation. (See the top 10 movie performances...
...find the Higgs boson is to create an environment that mimics the moment post-Big Bang. The powerful LHC runs at up to 7 trillion electron volts (TeV) and sends particles through temperatures colder than deep space at velocities approaching the speed of light. (The second most powerful particle accelerator, at Fermilab in Illinois, runs at 1 TeV.) The added juice allows scientists to get closer to the high energy that existed after the Big Bang. And high energies are needed, because the Higgs is thought to be quite heavy. (In Einstein's famous equation E=MC2, C represents...
...It’s just [that] the transition is so fast. It’s from zero to light-speed overnight, and when all the students arrive and the tutors are being trained, there’s really no other way to do it than to jump in and do it,” Gehrke said. “And the great thing about the House system is that there’s such great support...
