- The accelerator has nearly 10,000 superconducting magnets; main dipoles weigh 35 tons,
15 meters long.
- The magnets are cooled by 130 tons of helium held at1.9 and 4.2 K
- The accelerator contains about 15,000 MegaJoules of magnetic energy
- 1200 tons of Nb-Ti superconducting cables were usedto wind the magnets
- There is a 0.01% variation in field quality among the1232 main dipole magnets

One of the first assignments for this machine:
“Find the Higgs particle”
Why do we want such a particle?What does it have to do with the masses of the other particles?
Why is it called “God Particle” ?
The story is more complicated– and much more interesting ! – than the religious story
The Higgs particle is a product of theory !

1968: attempts to calculate more subtle effects failed.The theory was not yet right …
These interactions seemed to be infinitely strong!
To do it right, more was needed. We had to understand how to accommodate for particles with mass, and how to break the
Left – right symmetry

Problems with the compositeness idea:
Quarks and leptons are light; but their constituents must be very pointlike (invisible below a TeV).
These are complicated mathematical conditions for the pentaks; no realistic solutions found.
Theory does not work well mathematically
Compare: pions are light, yet quarks are pointlikePions are protected by the conservation of
the chiral current (PCAC)
We need such a protection mechanism for the quarks and the leptons.
