Which I think is what is going to be the case.
...or they will disappear quickly as all other exotic particles do through experiments at this level because of their fundamental unstable nature.Bertster7 wrote:
It's to do with the extra dimensional predictions made in various string theories. These predict gravitons forming and then vanishing into other dimensions. Seeing a graviton and then seeing it being gone are what they hope for.Flaming_Maniac wrote:

Have you really never heard of either?
I don't understand how the discovery of the graviton would help String theory against the various other theories. All theories that I know of require the existence of a gravitron, String theory is just one way of explaining why there is a gravitron.

assuming you're in front of the beam, you'd be torn to shreds
even a near miss can ionize molecules and cause repulsion.
i wouldn't recommend standing in the beam anyway, the superconducting magnets required to focus the beam would shred you if the beam itself didn't

What's that like an APC?MGS3_GrayFox wrote:

I just want to get superpowers, or be forever immortalised.

Become the real Hulk and get frozen. Maybe you will meet Fry and Dr. Zoidberg in the future.jord wrote:

There are cryogenics labs in operation already, but I wouldn't trust my offspring to bother thawing me, the future's gonna have enough problems without mejord wrote:

I dont know about anybody else but my guess of what will happen is-
After they've spent an hour running diagnostics to find out why its not working, only to find someone forgot to plug it into the wall socket.
It will probably be like the begining of halflife (not the bit where you have to mess around getting your suit on and finding the lab). Aliens from another dimension will start appearing randomly and then some scientist guy is gonna have to save us all.
Yeah but that doesn't give me powers. And those people aren't famous enough, the LHC thing is pretty well known.S.Lythberg wrote:

It is to perhaps one day discover what and where gravitons are exactly/come from/go to. It is understood that gravity is caused by gravitational particle called gravitons. They can't be seen nor measured. We can see that energy is missing from where it should be (missing gravitons). The theory is that they transport to a different dimension. If we can fully understand what gravity is and how it can be manipulated we can expect awesome advancements in sciences such as space travel and who knows what else. Theoretical time travel even. Smashing atoms in the LHC is a way to study gravitons.usmarine wrote:
