RE: A crash course on particle physics (towards our steemSTEM meetup at CERN) - 6 - pushing the frontiers further with particle accelerators
The machine is larger (27 km long). The particles that are collided are protons or some atomic nuclei. They are thus tiny, and organized into very-well collimated beams with plenty of them.
Is it clearer?
Yes, thanks. Clear. The question was partially tongue-in-cheek.
No problem! My pleasure to clarify :)
