What an anti-climax.
The LHC:
had to be shut down when temperatures rose by about 100C, causing a leak of a ton of liquid helium into the tunnel.
~this article in the NZ Herald
So, the mysteries of the universe dying to be unravelled will have to wait another 2 months then.
Sorry for the false alarm.
(It's sadder because a teenage girl in India committed suicide over the fear that the LHC would create a black hole that would cause the destruction of mankind)
Sometimes too much [mis]information can be dangerous.
