Omschrijving

A decade after the discovery of the Higgs Boson, the large Hadron Collider at CERN still leads the world in the search to uncover what the universe is made of, how it was formed, and what fate may lie in store for it. If there is such a thing as a cutting edge, it surely lies 100 metres below the Swiss French border, at the point the beams collide.

As part of a unique collaboration, this book pairs a team of award-winning authors with CERN physicists to explore some of the consequences of what the LHC is learning, through fiction.

Authors include Sherlock and Dr Who writer Steven Moffat, novelist and Little Axe screenwriter Courttia Newland, Dame Margaret Drabble, Lucy Caldwell and SF legends Ian Watson (whose credits include the screenplay for the Spielberg's A.I.) and Stephen Baxter (winner of the Philip K Dick and John W Campbell Memorial Award).

Scientists advising on the project include Lyn Evans CBE and John Ellis CBE. Award-winning Welsh scientist Lyn Evans CBE is a fellow of the American Physical Society and a Fellow of the Royal Society and was appointed director of the Linear Collider Collaboration in 2012. John Ellis CBE FRS HonFInstP is a British theoretical physicist who is currently acting Clerk Maxwell Professor of Theoretical Physics at King's College London.
