LHC in the RED BULL CONTEST, by Guglinski
In the begginning of 2010 Red Bull had promoted a contest in Brazil.
Guglinski contributed with the advertisement ahead, where he showed that Red Bull could help finding the Higgs boson in the LHC. any semelhançan with the current status of the LHC is a mere coincidence... ha ha ha |

Conspiracy Theories perhaps? What with pedrone's belief that everyone is suppressing his favourite crackpottery.

I go away for a while, and this is what I get to come back to?
In Science, Mathematics, Medicine, and Technology? The horror. |

The carton implies that Guglinski is under the impression that the LHC would detect the Higgs particle immediately.
This is something no competent scientist expects. This is a sad reflection on Guglinsk's knowledge of physics. However as humnor it is funny. This thread should be moved to the Humor section since it contains no science, mathematics, medicine or technology. |

I am experiencing great satisfaction with this thread. That said, I have no idea what it is about, and I think I read that cartoon backwards.

Guglinski is indulging in wishful thinking.
It is expected that the LHC will have collected enough data by the end of 2012 to either
Either result will be a resounding success for physics. FIlling out the Standard Model with a Higgs boson would be great. Not finding one that fits in the Standard Model in some senses is even better\ since this means some of the more estoeric theoris could be right. |

![]() No, it's not. Actually it's a predicton of the best kind ![]() Just because it's a prediction based on the fact that quantum mechanics is wrong, the standard model is wrong, and quantum field theory is wrong. This will be evident in 2012, when Andrea Rossi's E-Cat will start to work in several places of the world ![]() And then probably Red Bull will put Guglinski's advertisment in TV

![]() NEW EXPERIMENTS DISCARD SUPERSYMMETRY Recent findings of Jony Hudson (ImperialCollege, London) and Aaron E. Leanhardt (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) about the spherical shape of the electron and the absence of electron’s electric dipole moment, which – at least at the current state-of-the-art experimental precision – seem to work against the supersymmetry theory. “What’s interesting is that the electron is so round it is becoming difficult for theories like supersymmetry to explain it,” said Hudson, whose finding ALREADY rules out the existence of some supersymmetric particles. … The findings, published in the journal Nature, already rule out some kinds of particles that theories suggested could pop into existence at the Large Hadron Collider at Cern, the European particle physics laboratory near Geneva. http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/20...s-round-cosmos http://www.nature.com/nature/journal...ture10104.html ![]() Does somebody remember what are the 3 goals of the LHC ? ![]() ![]() Let's remember them 1- To find the Higgs boson 2- To find the supersymmetric particles, so that to confirm supersymmetry 3- To confirm superstrings

Where in the world did you get that?
The goal of the LHC has always been to discover the origin of electroweak symmetry breaking, which is probably the Higgs. The one thing we know for certain is that something new happens at around the energies probed by LHC. It could be nothing more than the Higgs, or it could be the entire zoo of new particles predicted by low-scale supersymmetry. No one knows, and that's why they're doing the experiment. |

It is a prediction from an ignorant crank who has the delusion that those theories are wrong
