Jigsaw Puzzle : Lead ion collisions
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Lead ion collisions
Lead ion collisions. Particle tracks from the first lead ion collisions seen by the ALICE (a large ion collider experiment) detector at CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) near Geneva, Switzerland, on 7th November 2010. Each collision, produced after the ions had been accelerated to an energy of 287 TeV (tera electron volts) by the large hadron collider (LHC), leads to the production of thousands of subatomic particles. The tracks are colour-coded according to energy from low (blue) to high (red). Lead ion collisions are expected to produce quark-gluon plasma, a primordial state of matter thought to have been present in the Universe microseconds after the Big Bang

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of lead ion collisions, a groundbreaking experiment conducted at CERN's ALICE detector in Geneva, Switzerland. Taken on 7th November 2010, these particle tracks showcase the immense power and complexity unleashed by accelerating ions to an astonishing energy level of 287 TeV using the large hadron collider (LHC). Each collision depicted here gives birth to thousands of subatomic particles, which are color-coded based on their energy levels ranging from low (blue) to high (red). These lead ion collisions hold great significance as they are expected to generate quark-gluon plasma – a primordial state of matter believed to have existed microseconds after the Big Bang. The image is set against a striking black background that accentuates the vibrant trails left behind by these energetic particles. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of understanding the fundamental structure of matter and unraveling cosmological mysteries. With its intricate trajectories and traces, this photograph showcases not only the cutting-edge research being conducted at CERN but also highlights our progress in exploring quantum chromodynamics and pushing the boundaries of particle physics. This remarkable snapshot represents one small moment captured in time during an era defined by scientific exploration and discovery. Science Photo Library brings us this awe-inspiring visual representation that encapsulates both the grandeur and intricacy found within our universe.
