If I were allowed to have one science thing re-gifted to me…I think I would enjoy playing with the LHC if Santa decided I should indeed be given a hadron Collider for Christmas. I think one of the rover robots for doing sample collecting and general over road traveling via a remote control planets away seems rather cool as well.
LHC Batteries not included.
Paying the power bill would be a bitch.

For the rover or LHC Collider?
The rover has a solar cell covering the robot..I thought.
Surely I could generate some power to put back into a grid with a proton smasher at my disposal.

LHC
Oh well. I am certain I could charge an admission fee to cover some of running the costs.
total power requirements is 180MW.

Power corrupts but total power corrupts totally.

Hmm, if you’re paying 20 cents per kWh, then your electricity bill is going to come in at about $26 million per month. That’s a lot of people to charge admission too.

How much in running time? I get the impression the big power use only lasts for seconds.
Now there’s no lights on the christmas tree mother
They’re burning Big Louie tonight

That is running the bad boy 24/7.

TWSS…
I don’t believe in Santa.

I think I’d have trouble playing with an LHC. Analysing individual events would be fun, but collecting enough together to confirm a Higgs would be more of a slog. I’d prefer a smaller machine such as a DIY cyclotron or an LEP. http://www.symmetrymagazine.org/article/august-2010/the-do-it-yourself-cyclotron The reason, firstly because a cyclotron can be used to make isotopes. Secondly, because many of the lighter subatomic particles produced by the LEP remain unstudied. Did you see my AAHA Australian amateur hadron accelerator?
I smiled quite a bit viewing this thread! The thought that counts and all that….:)

Morning ms. Maybe I should read it then?
