What is the world made of? What holds the world together? Where did we come from? Tools ? the smallest things in the world interactions (forces) between them the Universe’s past, present, and future Particle Physics: physics where small and big things meet, inner and outer space meet
Many generations of Accelerators created with higher and higher energy and intensity beams 1930 Fermilab Chicago ~2000 Scientists Fermilab experiments using accelerators > 2 publications every week ~2 Ph.D.s every week Ernest Lawrence (1901 - 1958) x104 bigger x106 higher energy, higher intensity beam
