Video about LHCb experiment and the recent test of their detector using Super Proton Synchrotron. LHCb experiment is one of six particle detector experiments aimed to measure CP violation in the interaction of b-hadrons (hadron containing b quarks).

OFF THE SCALE
— James Ph. Kotsybar
The young lady known simply as Bright,
who could travel at speeds fast as light,
said, ?While I?m never late,
I?m concerned that my weight
goes to infinite mass, though I?m slight.?
FEARFUL SYMMETRY (from Songs Of Experiments)
– James Ph. Kotsybar
Beyond notice, out of sight
in dimensions curled up tight,
shall only weakened gravity
suggest your supersymmetry?
Do you match, sine qua non,
boson to a fermion?
Will you ever edify
how the forces unify?
In what quanta, small or large
will we find your mass and charge?
In what membranes do you roam?
Which dimensions call you home?
In magnetic chambers narrow,
will you tell us of time?s arrow?
Have you broken, in the past?
How long do your components last?
Quarks from gluons will divide
when we make hadrons collide:
Will this show us where you hide
or leave us still unsatisfied?
Beyond notice, out of site
in dimensions curled up tight,
will only highest energy
reveal your supersymmetry?
(apologies to William Blake)
