Hot Big Bang In November

In Early November Cern will heat matter up to 10 million celcius
about 1 million hotter than in the center of the sun
to melt protons and neutrons to create BigBang

What will happen if the temperature rise to 10 million Celcius on Earth
in the fraction of a second?
We are soon about to find out as that is what Cern will attempt in early November 2010 experiment

"Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are getting set to create the Big Bang on a miniature scale."

"Since 2009, the world's highest-energy particle accelerator has been smashing together protons, in a bid to shed light on the fundamental nature of matter"

"But now the huge machine will be colliding lead ions instead. "

"The experiments are planned for early November and will run for four weeks"

"The LHC is housed in a 27km-long tunnel on the Franco-Swiss border and is managed by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (Cern)."

"..the tests could provide an insight into the conditions of the Universe some 13.7 billion years ago, just after the Big Bang."

"If the researchers at the LHC are able to recreate that state of matter and study it, they could get important clues about how it "evolved into the kind of matter that can make up you and me"."

"Although the tiny fireballs will only exist for a fleeting moment (less than a trillionth of a trillionth of a second) the temperatures will reach over ten trillion degrees, a million times hotter than the centre of the Sun," said Dr Evans.

"At the temperatures generated, even protons and neutrons, which make up the nuclei of the atoms, will melt, resulting in a hot, dense soup of quarks and gluons."

"The researcher said that the temperatures and densities that the collider will aim to create will be the highest ever produced in an experiment."
