... • As the energy of the incident particles increases, there is more and more energy available for producing other particles. Feynman compared this to shooting two Swiss precision watches against each other and trying to find out from the debris how a watch is built. • Detectors have become larger, an ...

... With light [ E≈1eV] we can "see"the structure of matter down to 10-6m. To see the structure of matter at a scale of 10-18 m and below we need probes with an energy of one TeV [= 1012 eV] or above. ...

Compact Muon Solenoid
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment is one of two large general-purpose particle physics detectors built on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Switzerland and France. The goal of CMS experiment is to investigate a wide range of physics, including the search for the Higgs boson, extra dimensions, and particles that could make up dark matter.CMS is 21.6 metres long, 15 metres in diameter, and weighs about 14,000 tonnes. Approximately 3,800 people, representing 199 scientific institutes and 43 countries, form the CMS collaboration who built and now operate the detector. It is located in an underground cavern at Cessy in France, just across the border from Geneva. In July 2012, along with ATLAS, CMS tentatively discovered the Higgs Boson.
