stunning science

We have a small exhibition on at the museum about the Higgs Boson, which includes some examples and interpretation of the science involved in the discovery...

It's pretty advanced stuff and I won' even pretend that I understand it, but this item really caught my eye. It's the pattern made by a supercharged particle etching its way through perspex...

I love the fact that something so lovely could be produced by way of an academic experiment...
