Almost everyone, scientific or not, has heard of ‘dark matter’ at least once. But for many of us, dark matter is still a mystery. Moreover, considering that dark matter covers a large part of the universe, it is quite interesting that there are still unexplained secrets.
A lot of research has been done to unravel the secrets of dark matter before. As a matter of fact, most of the studies could not explain most of these secrets. CERN (European Center for Nuclear Research) believes it can unravel these secrets with the help of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
Large Hadron Collider to be operational again tomorrow
As a result of research at CERN, a great discovery was made in 2012 and a particle called the Higgs boson was found. The Higgs boson, which was found with the help of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which is the world’s largest and most powerful particle collider, made a big noise at that time. However, the LHC has undergone a number of repairs and upgrades over the past 3 years, undergoing major overhaul. In the past months, we have reported that the Large Hadron Collider will reach full power by the month of July to investigate dark matter.
The Large Hadron Collider, which is reported to be ready for its new discovery, will be put into operation again tomorrow. Particle physicist on the dark matter team at CERN, Dr. Clara Nellist stated that they are very hopeful for new discoveries. Nellist stated that CERN will consume enough electricity to meet the needs of 300,000 households per year in order to solve the secrets of dark matter after the procedures. It is expected that the LHC, which will operate with a record level of energy, will thus be able to illuminate one of the biggest secrets of the universe.
There is no definite information about dark matter particles so far. This is a situation that encourages researchers more and more every day. It is not even known exactly what dark matter is, which has not yet been discovered and is thought to occupy 80-85 percent of the universe. CERN researchers say tomorrow the Large Hadron Collider may shed light on this mystery.
