The largest experiment in human history, the outcome of which are anxiously waiting for the whole world. Some, believing that it will become the cause of our planet's apocalypse, others - in the hope that it finally reveal the secrets of the universe was formed. However, a small group of people, this is the only one event meant much more - from this experiment belonged to their whole life.
Marco Levinson documentary "Particle Fever" tells the story of how the European Center for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, scientists with the help of the largest man-made machine - Big Hadron Collider (LHC) aims to recreate the conditions that existed just a few moments after the Big Bang and discover model the missing piece of the universe - the Higgs boson, which would finally understand the world around us.
To "God" particle searches contributed as much as 10 thousand. scientists from around the world. All of them have a variety of professions, but most of the responsibility project had physics theorists and experimenters who took care of both aspects of the hypothetical test and technical preparation of particle accelerator.
However, if you expect that these people are shut in himself and ordinary mortals perceived sentence not telling boring people, think again! To this, one of the most important events of modern science only contributed to the creation of any complexes or restrictions feeling, but his work fervently in love with scientists who most sophisticated process-looking particle collision process is able to convey an accessible manner.
However, four years at CERN team filmed director had not only capture the enthusiasm and positive emotions half full of this experiment. Very dramatic moment occurred even in 2008, when the Great particle accelerator broke. This accident cost not only a huge disappointment for workers, but the experiment and the postponement of one year.
Not to mention the stress and anxiety, which is the main heroes of the film suffered a second test run in opposite directions out the particles 27 kilometers long tunnel, at the time (2012). But this time, the screen lights up in green. "We have it!" - Echoes the cries of joy. Today some physicists have been waiting all my life. Not forced back his tears and himself, Peter Higgs, who first raised the "God" particle hypothesis of existence in 1964.
Perhaps masterfully conveyed emotion significant scientific event, maybe ambitious, but scientists are bursting with charisma just sincere co-operation has resulted in the film directed by Marc Levinson managed to win the sympathy of the audience around the world.
Indeed, "Particle Fever perfectly conveys not only the discovery of the Higgs boson particle importance to the world, but quite rough and the CERN research kitchen work
specifics. We have no doubt that they will surprise the subtleties of "God" particle discovery story knowledgeable physics lovers and adventurers who are ready to watch this movie as a surprise.
