Is there a Small Hadron Collider anywhere?
There are four other hadron colliders all of which are smaller than the Large Hadron Collider, so ny definition there is a rsmall, quite small, medium and quite big hadron collider as well as the large one.
I am sure that the board's resident particle phycisist can give much more detail

There is a 5th in the works that has a radius of 100km. I'm certain that the people of Geneva are buzzing.

Is there a Fun Size Hadron Collider?
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Honestly don't know what n to the t means.
help?
It seems to have generated more replies than if the OP had actually stated something.
Nothing to the text ... means nothing more to say?
So, unless you want to Google the Large Hadron Collider and find out if something notable relating to it has happened really means just "nothing to say".

It’s BlueBeat’s way of saying “I’m too fkn lazy to explain myself. I’ll just leave this post title to see if anyone can figure out how stoned/drunk I am”.

How much is that going to cost? Because a quick Google says the LHC cost $4.75billion, and the Future Circular Collider is estimated at $23billion.
Any chance the people of the world could have a say on whether the money should be spent on scientific research and project development to clean the plastic from the oceans, or on active carbon sequestration? You know, actual priorities.

Usually I would agree, but CERN is quite good at doing important things. If we can harness a new type of power, we can find a new planet to f'kup
I have an old school mate who worked on the collider! Hes a Doc' of physics at Warwick Uni, or was last I heard. I used to sit next to him in maths, couldn't work out how he was doing the sums set for us so quickly! He went to Chantry....

I guess if we're too lazy and selfish to save our planet, working out how to start a new universe might be an alternative solution to us breaking this one?

This is scientific research.

Ok, if you are struggling to understand the sentence, I'll rephrase it:
Instead of spending a huge sum of money to conduct scientific research into a very specific area of most interest to theoreticians, could the money be channeled into scientific research into areas of greater need and priority, such as Carbon sequestration or how to clean plastic from the oceans.

CERN is a research center where many scientific minds go to research their own ideas with facilities reaching beyond their own means. The internet was created there, for example. There is more to CERN than particle physics.

Indeed. When you think about the billions we spunk away on dodgy track and test, even dodgier wars and bailing out a failed economic system, this stuff is pure gold.
That’s the great thing about science: you never know what you’re going to get (E.g. The Internet) and even failure is hugely valuable because it confirms almost as much as discovery itself.

That is the thing really - The experiments at CERN are all a waste of money, until they aren't.
Any agreed upon hypothesis is useful, until is isn't any more.
But for every failed hypothesis and experiment, we get one step closer to a solution in most cases.
