Sunset on the Tevatron: Photos and memories from a Fermilab physicist
For more than 20 years, the Tevatron reigned as the gold standard in particle accelerators. Under a berm outside Batavia, Illinois, the machine pushed protons and antiprotons to high energies around circular tracks before crashing them into each other. What's the point of that? When high-energy protons and antiprotons collide, they reproduce the conditions at [...]Original Link: http://feeds.boingboing.net/~r/boingboing/iBag/~3/wTLFp7-pHn4/sunset-on-the-tevatron-photos-and-memories-from-a-fermilab-physicist.html
