Opening the LHC for heavy ions
Collisions of lead ions are scheduled to start in November 2010, first at the injection c.m. energy of 0.32 TeV, then at a centre-of-mass energy per particle pair of 2.76 TeV (corresponding to 7 TeV in a proton-proton collision at the same magnetic-field configuration).
A top boffin at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) says that the titanic machine may possibly create or discover previously unimagined scientific phenomena, or "unknown unknowns" - for instance "an extra dimension".
"Out of this door might come something, or we might send something through it," said Sergio Bertolucci, who is Director for Research and Scientific Computing at CERN
