Beyond the Higgs: What’s Next for the LHC? – with Harry Cliff



The Royal Institution

In 2012, the announcement of the Higgs boson made headlines around the world. But what has been going on at the Large Hadron Collider since? Physicist Harry Cliff will be your guide.

What is the future of the world’s biggest physics experiment? And what intriguing hints of new physics are around the corner?

Harry Cliff is the Science Museum Fellow of Modern Science, which he reckons might be the only job title which begins and ends with ‘science’. He spends half his time searching for signs of new physics at LHCb, one of the four big experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. For the other half, he indulges his love of talking about physics at the Science Museum, where he develop exhibitions, events and online content.

This talk was filmed in the Royal Institution on 31 October 2017.

  1. I find it sad that I, a random jackass in bed watching this at home, find this more interesting than several people in that room with you. I wish your experiment luck good sir.

  2. I don't get the theory on dark matter at 19:00 it seems very unscientific to me the explanation given for its existence. Like we know there should be something there but there isn't (in our observation) so we will just call it dark matter. What the actual fuck? Couldn't it be something more mundane like our optical telescope not detecting light from other faint sources in the same area. That whole 2D image should be filled with light from distant galaxies but since its too far away our current equipment can detect only partial details like the more bright stuff.

  3. I almost happily forgot about this unusual research project. I figured they could always use it to make popcorn after they lose out on finding the particle in question. Particle physics is a "lost world" and until all the elements and the trillions & trillions of atoms that make them up are fully understood we're going to go nowhere. "Hey we do get to go nowhere really really fast though!

  4. At the expece of us, and at the filling of their bank accounts, what science are they feeding us. I say that they are not electical engineers or plasma PHD, so what are there commenents based on. What is this physics about

  5. Great job explaining the LHC and quantum mechanics in general. Not to mention classic physics. What we need to do is clone more of you and insert them into our school systems.
