Simulasi Fenomena 'Big Bang'

Sebuah teori yang selama ini diyakini banyak ilmuwan menyebutkan bahwa alam semesta berasal dari fenomena 'Big Bang' atau ledakan besar. Teori ini menyatakan bahwa alam semesta terbentuk dari ledakan maha dahsyat sekitar 13.700 juta tahun lampau.

Ledakan ini melontarkan materi dalam jumlah sangat besar ke segala penjuru alam semesta. Materi-materi ini kemudian mengisi alam semesta dalam bentuk bintang, planet, debu kosmis, asteroid, meteor, energi, dan partikel lainnya. Sudah puluhan tahun, para ilmuwan berupaya keras melakukan eksperimen besar untuk merekaulang kondisi beberapa saat setelah Big Bang.

Melalui serangkaian penelitian, para ilmuwan di Eropa meyakini berhasil mereka ulang fenomena Bing Bang. Mereka pun berharap penelitian ini akan menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan fundamental di bidang fisika.

Rencana penelitian ini sendiri sebenarnya sempat tersenda-sendat sejak digagas sekitar 30 tahun lalu. Pasalnya, proyek ini menghadapi masalah pembengkakan biaya, gangguan peralatan, dan masalah konstruksi. Namun, para ilmuwan tetap tak lelah untuk terus mencoba merekaulang kondisi setelah peristiwa Big Bang, yang menurut mereka menyebabkan terbentukan alam semesta.

Seperti dilansir kantor berita AP, Rabu (10/9), setelah 30 tahun akhirnya para ilmuwan itu kini telah berhasil menembakkan dua berkas partikel proton mengelilingi terowongan 27 km yang menampung Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Mesin senilai lebih dari 9 miliar dollar AS di perbatasan Swiss-Prancis itu dirancang untuk menabrakkan partikel dengan kekuatan sangat dahsyat.

Ketua tim ilmuwan Lyn Evans mengatakan, penelitian itu merupakan penantian mereka yang cukup panjang. ''Dan, kami ingin program penelitian LHC tetap berjalan,'' ujarnya.

LHC dibangun dalam waktu sekitar 13 tahun. Collider itu dioperasikan oleh Lembaga Eropa untuk Riset Nuklir, yang lebih dikenal dengan akronimnya dalam bahasa Prancis, CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research). Mesin yang berlokasi di perbatasan Swiss-Prancis itu dirancang untuk untuk menumbukkan partikel-partikel subatomik.

Tujuan utama uji coba CERN adalah untuk menemukan Higgs boson, yang namanya diambil dari nama fisikawan Skotlandia Peter Higgs. Ia pada 1964 menunjuk kepada partikel semacam itu sebagai kekuatan yang memberi massa dan membuat alam semesta mungkin terbentuk.

Berkas proton pertama, yang bergerak searah jarum jam, menyelesaikan putaran pertama terowongan bawah tanah itu sebelum pukul 09.30 waktu Inggris (15.30 WIB). Sedangkan, berkas kedua, yang bergerak melawan arah jaruh jam, berhasil mengitari terowongan tersebut selepas pukul 14.00 (20.00 WIB).

Terowongan sirkuler yang sangat besar itu memuat lebih dari 1.000 magnet silindrik. Magnet-magnet itu dipasang di sana untuk mengarahkan berkas yang terdiri dari partikel-partikel yang dinamai proton sepanjang cincin yang membentang 27 km. Pada akhirnya, dua berkas proton akan diarahkan secara berlawanan di terowongan LHC pada kecepatan mendekati laju cahaya dan menyelesaikan 11 ribu putaran per detik.

Untuk menembakkan berkas partikel itu ke sekeliling terowongan, diperlukan ribuan magnet bertenaga besar, yang didinginkan sampai suhu minus 271 derajat celcius. Beberapa minggu lagi, kedua berkas akan bertabrakan di beberapa titik di sepanjang terowongan. Tabrakan ini akan menghasilkan suhu yang jauh lebih panas dari matahari, dan terkonsentrasi di sebuah tempat yang sangat kecil, sekian kali lipat lebih kecil daripada debu.

Partikel-partikel subatomik yang terbentuk, kemudian akan dipelajari secara teliti oleh ilmuwan dari seluruh dunia. Mereka berharap data yang dihasilkan akan membuka misteri alam semesta.

Satu berkas partikel subatom lain akan dikirim dari arah berlawanan, dan menabrakkan partikel-partikel itu dengan kekuatan yang sangat dashyat. Sejumlah pengkritik menyatakan ketakutannya bahwa tabrakan proton bisa menimbulkan lubang hitam yang akan menyebabkan kiamat. Namun, kekhawatiran itu ditolak oleh para pakar fisika. Fisikawan asal Cern, Ulrich Straumann menegaskan, ''Risiko seperti itu tidak ada.''

Sayangnya, Cern belum mengumumkan kapan tumbukan pertama akan terjadi, tapi diperkirakan hal itu terjadi sebelum mesin itu dimatikan selama musim dingin. Meski demikian, para teknisi dan ilmuwan tetap meluapkan perasaan sukacita saat partikel-partikel proton menyelesaikan putaran pertama cincin bawah tanah yang menampung kompleks riset fisika LHC di bawah Gunung Alpen Eropa itu.

Basic Knowledge of How to Select a Right MLM Company

by: Tsuyoshi Suzuki
Introduction Network marketing opportunity is a big decision. But how do you choose which network marketing opportunity is the right one for you. Basically, what a network marketing opportunity is nothing more than direct selling. Is the general impression left that the network marketing opportunity is largely about selling the network marketing opportunity to new participants with an emphasis on recruiting or acquiring new participants and selling them the product, rather than having as a primary purpose the sale of the product to non-participants who remain non-participants?

Start Many companies also offer incentives such as fast start bonuses which can really jumpstart your earnings. Your full of energy, motivated about the product, and eager to get started. But you really should give yourself at least six months and some sales before you start calling the family tree. Everybody has to go through that startup period when they are NOT rich, famous, and a shining example to all who seek to emulate their success. What do you get in return for your start up investment, other then the potential to earn good money? If you want to, you can start your own company any time you want. Program Ask yourself if it is something that you can use and sell outside of the program. If the product is only useful in recruiting others into the program than you should probably stay away from it. Try to avoid programs that force you to go wide on your first level, or who don't reward you for going deep. The average network marketer only recruits two to four people, so you will want an opportunity that allows your downline to go deep which will make it easier for everyone and may help people from quitting the program. Do a little research on the company and the program you are thinking about getting involved with. The program should have great marketing tools, training, and excellent customer support. Sometimes diligence and patience, which are rare commodities in someone who has invested money in a network marketing program, will overcome the lack of a system or training program. Companies Companies go through different stages of growth, and choosing the right company at the right time is crucial to your potential with that particular company. Companies can combine the basis compensation plans in any way they want. How does the pay plan compare to other companies with similar products? This question should be going part of your thought process as you choose just what you want from a network marketing companies’ opportunity. Network Marketing means that companies choose to sell products by using independent distributors rather than stocking their products in storefronts. Most network marketing companies have a money back guarantee which means that if you are unhappy with the products you can send them back for a refund and also retired the pension plans. If you happen to be a member of several companies, it is important to remember that you should really focus on one good network marketing home based business for the long run and the others will tend to operate essentially on kind of a referral basis. Conclusion So, now that you understand how choosing a online network marketing opportunity as your perfect chance for starting a successful home based business. This is why the educational system inherent in a good network marketing opportunity is so important. Trying to decide if that network marketing companies are right or not. If your Network Marketing opportunity is leaving you feeling confused about how to grow your business into a successful and profitable venture maybe you should consider that again. Achieving financial freedom from home is probably one of the biggest desires for people today and it is a great way for you to start a new career and meet your own personal goals. For more information about MLM, make sure you follow the link in the recourse box below now.

Creating Your Vision

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one" Albert Einstein I feel that one of the most important ingredients in your formula for success is having a clearly defined and vivid vision of where you want to be. At first the “how” is not that important, you need to create a vision that gets you so excited that you develop the mentality that you will stop at nothing to get what you want.

Many people first focus on the how than very quickly find themselves overwhelmed with too many details and just as quickly talk them selves out of pursuing their goals. You have to take a leap of faith and trust that the how will be shown to you as you go along. Do you remember the days as a kid with dreams of epic proportions? What happened those dreams? You got older and domesticated by a society that says that having those dreams is foolish. That’s nonsense, why wouldn’t you want to accomplish the things that even as a kid you knew would make you happy. I encourage you to dream like you once used to. “Shoot for the moon…even if you Miss you’ll still be amongst them stars”- Beanie Sigel(rap artist) One way I keep myself motivated and keep my vision alive is through my picture book. In my book I have everything that I want and every morning I look at it to remind me what I want in life. Go right now and get some magazines and cut out every picture of the things you want and places you want to visit, don’t be thinking if you can actually get those things now, dare to dream. Remember your mind thinks in pictures, look at your picture book until in becomes as vivid as possible in the theater of your mind. Your mind cant tell the difference between something you remember or something you experience in real time. Visualization Exercises(meditation): (Please read this whole section, I will explain why almost all self help fails to produce the results people want) You can think of meditation as conscious sleeping. Just as you sleep to gain energy for your daily functioning, meditation is conscious sleeping that gives you all the energy(creative abilities) you need for what you intend to accomplish. I also use lucid dreaming as another way to increase creativity, I will soon write a hub on lucid dreaming.(Lucid dreaming is when you actually become aware in your dream that you are dreaming, once properly trained you can control your dreams) Use the power of meditation to help you achieve your goals. Strive to everyday meditate one minute for each year of your current age. I am 24, so everyday I try and meditate at least 24 minutes. If you are new to meditation check out this website on transcendental meditation .There are many techniques find something that feels good to you.

Quantum Mind Power Daily Routine: 1. Pick a nice comfortable place where to meditate. Have an intention on what you plan to meditate on before hand. Ex. A destination you want to visit. 2. Find a comfortable position to sit. Sitting on a chair or on the floor, does not really matter as long as it is comfortable for you. 3. Cross your legs, clasp your hands together.(this helps make your own energy circuit and gives stability) 4.Close your eyes, than stop inner and outer chatter. 5. Relax, begin thinking that your whole body is becoming extremely relaxed. 6. Eyes should be closed. 7. You will notice that your mind is full of many thoughts. Your mind will than begin to ask questions to those thoughts and try and come up with answers whether they are known or unknown. This is why your mind(ego) can be your enemy if it mostly thinks in negative terms. 8. You will need to transcend your mind and thoughts in order to meditate. Your mind and thoughts are what separate you from your higher self, you can also think of your higher self as your subconscious mind don't worry about the labels. 9. You transcend your mind by simply observing your breath. Don't inhale/exhale consciously just observe your natural breathing. Don't go behind your thoughts, if you catch your self drifting just always come back to your breathing. Slowly the amount of thoughts reduces and your breathing becomes thinner and shorter. If you are able to keep all your focus on your breath, you will get to the point of no thought and no breath. This state of no thought is your connection to your divine being and energy body. The more you meditate the more benefits and energy that you will receive. Your own self awareness and consciousness will also expand. 10. You will feel a very pleasurable feeling meditating. If you feel any discomfort in your body these can be possible areas of disease or illness. If you meditate everyday you will heal your body naturally. 11. Now that you are in a state of no thought and total relaxation. Begin to think only on your intention. Remember whatever you think now is in a state that will be impregnated directly into your subconscious. It is incredibly important that you don't color any of your thoughts with any lack,limitation,dis belief or doubt. This is why almost all self help material does not produce the results people expect. Wishing for more money(or anything else) never works, the thought of wanting more money also has the thought of doubt attached to it. Ask your self how many thoughts that you think about have been modified in a way that is not beneficial to you. You just never realize that you are programming your sub conscious all day. This is why meditation is so powerful. You are able to make suggestions to your subconscious
