minus-squareEntropywinslinkfedilink19•2 years agoAround 1930 they had a particular accelarator at Berkeley called the Cyclotron…they had the coolest names back then
minus-squareEl Bartolinkfedilink22•2 years agoLarge Hadron Collider is also a cool name. Are there newer accelerators with uncool names, like “TD Bank Accelerator”?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•edit-22 years agoYeah, but that’s just what it is and does. What’s it do? Collide. What’s it collide? Hadrons. How big is it? Large. I like the Cyclotron so much better. What does it do? I don’t fukken know, but it sounds cool as shit
minus-squareEl Bartolinkfedilink4•2 years agoWell, it’s like the Terminator. What does it do? It terminates. Still a cool name.
minus-squareRBGlinkfedilink4•2 years agoI will always read its name as “Large Hardon Collider”. Could be its porn name.

It’s pronounced Nolan 😂
Melbourne has the Synchrotron
Berkeley still has a cyclotron, though it’s a little newer (build in the 60’s) and much bigger.
