LHC Proton

Slightly grumpy proton, endlessly flying round the Large Hadron Collider, trying not to smash into my friends

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

Impressed by the new @Microboone results, but amused to see my sterile neutrino friends have managed to evade detection. Just wait until you work out how it really works 😉

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

😳… the most terrifying message a proton can see …

[LHC Status @lhcstatus2]

(Fill: 7516) Beam mode changed back to: BEAM DUMP
Stable beams lasted 2 hours and 20 minutes.

Coasting around the tunnel in battle formation - fun, fun fun!

[LHC Status @lhcstatus2]

Comments (09:36:41) Stable Beams!

(More ups than downs, luckily)

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

Like I always said, life as a proton is full of ups and downs 🤷‍♂️

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

Feels great to be splashing around in the #LHC again. It sure has been a while!

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

25 years of the #LHC programme survived without colliding inelastically. Do I get a long service award? https://t.co/d2yUQh5nYQ

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

Ah, those were the days. They still hadn't worked out I had quarks in my insides and all I had to do was saunter round the ring exchanging the odd pion https://t.co/85LDd5Dthc

Ha ha - if only they knew how my insides really work, they'd be kicking themselves ... https://t.co/YGuadTvcKH

Quark substructure: this is one of the exotic beasts that physicists hope to find https://t.co/AOngzBKKic

LHC Xenon - now there's a thing! - Time to put my feet up and watch for a few hours https://t.co/yFZwZscwec

[LHC Xenon @LHCXe]

Lo, it’s starting to feel more crowded in here.

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

20 quadrillion #LHC baryons sacrificed!... But you're not getting rid of us that easily - we have plenty more where they came from! https://t.co/U30yLq0XjY

[CERN @CERN]

HUGE amount of #LHC data: 100 inverse femtobarns of luminosity since 2010 = 10,000,000,000,000,000 collisions!

I've been having fun rocking my kids with the seesaw mechanism for years now. Good to see it's finally getting some attention https://t.co/o8EKdMdqhB

[CERN @CERN]

Large Hadron Collider rocks the seesaw model https://t.co/iHJVf67aLj

Looks like all that dieting is finally starting to pay off ... https://t.co/f0efWy9hLh

[CERN @CERN]

The proton is lighter than we previously thought: https://t.co/k62jqbVWkS

[LHC Proton @LHCproton]

Not a bad view, but the one from inside #LHC tunnel is better ... https://t.co/7WFzM64nox

Get a unique eagle eye view of CERN! Enjoy this drone #NiceTrip around iconic sites of the Laboratory. Read more: https://t.co/3G9tnVXIkA

5 years ago today we welcomed the newest member of our particle family. My goodness, they grow up quickly ... https://t.co/cuNbOWs4Ka

Happy 5th anniversary, #HiggsBoson! It’s been 5 years since we announced your discovery: https://t.co/wafSSzptpr #HiggsStories

Yippee, we're off - the fun starts here! https://t.co/qqFnMbdbXF

Outrageous! They'll be saying we should build accelerators in circles next! https://t.co/yYT0zoK3CT

Shiny new accelerator for us to play in! I may even bring a couple of my electron friends along https://t.co/Hpb8MywvEe

Well, yes, obviously ... I'm still as enigmatic, cool and sophisticated as ever ... https://t.co/gPWpIkEivW
