Description
This programme shows how a specialised but fundamental branch of science can have ramifications which go well beyond science itself, onto philosophy, politics, technology and even the very depth...s of the human spirit. It presents an account of the latest advances in particle physics - including a Nobel prize - winning experiment, rivalries and partnerships between the US and Europe and beyond, and many special qualities that go with the international collaboration of particle physics at CERN, the European Research Centre.
