SuperCollider is one of the most expressive, elegant and popular. He found that some of the features expected from the heavy ion collisions are, somewhat unexpectedly, being observed in the smaller proton+proton collisions at half-energy. This is an excerpt from the 'Blue Pageant Suite' part of the July 18th, 2011 concert at Provincetown Playhouse in NYC. FROM THE BASEMENT IS A LIVE STUDIO PERFORMANCE. At the international conference Quark Matter 2011 in May, Humanic presented preliminary findings of ALICE proton+proton data. RADIOHEADS FROM THE BASEMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE KING OF LIMBS IS NOW AVAILABLE TO ORDER ON DVD AND BLURAY. Humanic also is developing and running physics Monte Carlo codes at OSC to measure the response of the ALICE detector to specific types of events and signals, as well as signatures for miniature black hole production. “The real test of this system is happening now with real LHC data.” “Simulated data via ALICE Physics Data Challenges have been used to test the ALICE GRID computing environment at computing centers in Europe and at OSC,” Humanic said. In fact, while Europe is home to dozens of such ALICE sites, OSC is one of only four in the United States. ![]() In preparation, Thomas Humanic, Ph.D., professor of physics at The Ohio State University, leads a team that has been working since 2002 to help install and test the grid software at the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC), a Tier-2 ALICE data storage, retrieval and computation site. The information is quickly distributed to computers in 33 different countries through the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid. Upon impact, the quarks and gluons are released from their connecting bonds for an instant, producing a miniature expanding cloud of plasma – visible to the sensitive detectors – before quickly reassembling.ĭuring these experiments, the detectors are producing terabytes of data – at up to five gigabytes of data per second, or enough to fill 100,000 dual-layer DVDs every year.

In huge tunnels below the Swiss-Franco border, the European Organization for Nuclear Research's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is operating at half of its peak energy goal of 14 TeV or 'teraelectronvolts.' With the assistance of detectors built into the collider, physicists are searching for answers to questions about the birth of the universe, the existence of alternate dimensions and other key facets underlying the “Standard Model” of the fundamental forces of nature.Īt the LHC, the 52-foot tall ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) detector is tracking the fleeting trails of infinitesimal particles (quarks and gluons) ejected from violent collisions of subatomic lead particles known as hadrons: protons in some experiments and nucleons (protons and neutrons) in others.
