liquid hydrogen and/or helium?

Sometimes life isn't realistic, researchers at CERN created temperatures of 100,000,000,000,000 Celsuis! But only about 300 degrees lower then us is the lowest limit of about -273 degrees.
-
umm... Sergeant_Starfruit, your saying that the Large Hadron Collider created temps of 100 trillion degrees? that temprature is enough to instantly vaporize the whole earth!
and sandstorm, it is entirely possible to have an endothermic explosion at extremely low temps, though it is extremely hard to make something explode
-
Actually, it would not vaporize the entire world, since there were only a few atoms at that temperature, at most.
-
yeah, but every time the atoms collide, they release enough energy to create microscopic black holes, though those last only a few nanoseconds, but if the particle vacumn tube melted, the contamination of the air mixed with the extreme temperatures of the atoms and the mini black holes would create a huge explosion that could possibly destroy at least half of the Hadron collider, and that is being generous about the situation, provided that the magnets stayed in perfect alignment
-
No, because one or two quarks are temperature for 000000.1 nanoseconds. These black holes are so small and last so little that they do nothing at all.
-
In the event of a collision with the wall, the particles will deposit their energy into a few atoms in the wall, or they will go through and quickly lose their energy to the surrounding air. There was an accident at the LHC, but it was a magnet cooling failure caused by a faulty wire. If the LHC collisions had any actual danger, there would have already been problems since cosmic rays hit the Earth's atmosphere with much more energy than the LHC collision occur at.
-
yes, but because earth has this magnificent magnetosphere, those cosmic rats lose some energy and most of them get deflected away from earth. i am not sure what cosmic rays have to do with the LHC, but with the LHC underground, i dont think cosmic rays will do much to harm the LHC
