Xymox Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 As a fan I have created a new website for the LHC making it easy to monitor the cool experiments LIVE at CERN. It brings together all the coolest stuff and links into one spot. This includes a brand new forum as well.. http://www.LHCPortal.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npts2020 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Just got back from the LHC portal site. It is a good start and has potential for being one of the best sites on the web for anyone interested in cutting edge experimental physics. Will be looking forward to seeing the future developments there. Oh, and it seems like you can find out nearly anything you want to know about the LHC somewhere on the site or through the links provided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 (edited) I just checked out the new site. Has some fascinating "fly on the wall" stuff. You can spend a lot of time poking around. Webcams at various locations. Screens from actual monitors, reporting up-to-the-minute status of this or that system. It also has a collection of goodies that the CERN public outreach people have prepared----like animation/photography showing the construction/planned operation of ATLAS compressed into a few minutes. http://www.LHCPortal.com/ It is an independent volunteer effort, I would reckon. The guy might conceivably eventually get some income from advertising if the site gets very popular. But it looks like no one is paying him. All the stuff is freely available, but he is doing the work of gathering it all together and organizing it so you can easily navigate around. Looking good. I wish him success, whoever the guy is. I would guess it is an under-thirty techno-freak Edited November 15, 2009 by Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xymox Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 hehehehe.... Actually im a over 40 techo freak But I like to think of my self as 20 something No advertising... No no no... Never... No on my site... Nope... I am a LHC fan.. I have been following it for years... Its GREAT fun to poke around... Like I said in the forum,,,, if you find anything interesting make sure to post it in the forum and I will add it to the portal links.. The site went viral at CERN the other day. I had so many hits in the web log from CERN I think the whole place went to my site ! I am concerned they might close off all the cool access... Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedI am going to start a thread in my forum for all the kind words about my site. http://www.lhcportal.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27&start=0&sid=6a2e4b8c02cfac8500c9c5935922fb58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
