Scientists Confirm Subatomic Particle Patterns Using Large Hadron Collider Open Data

The important results of an experiment involving the Large Hardon Collider (LHC) by a team of MIT physicists were shared last week, and the scientists are hopeful that more scientists in the field of particle physics will be encouraged to share their work.

The main significance of the study is that it was only made possible by CERN’s Open Data portal: through this portal, LHC experiments are made available, eliminating the need for a particle accelerator. Moreover, the findings of a particle collider experiment had never been released to the public before this portal came into existence.
