Yesterday, the LHC collided its last particles for 2009. It has been an exciting end to the year, and the beginning of a new era in particle physics. The collider and all the experiments have proven that they work very well, and are ready for the first physics run.
This is also my last blog entry for the US LHC web site. It has been fun, and I appreciate all the interesting comments and questions to my posts over the last year and a half.
A few new bloggers are starting up, and I’ll be among the readers for an exciting 2010. Happy New Year!
