Guinness World Records recognized the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the USA for a new achievement "the most heat created by man", which is 4 trillion degrees Celsius. This 250 000 hotter than the temperature in the center of the Sun.
Heavy Ion Collider has achieved this impressive feat, pushing gold ions with almost the speed of light. Collider, which is a 3.8-kilometer ring made collision that led to so intense impact energy that the protons and neutrons inside the nuclei of gold "melted", releasing the quarks and gluons, which formed the primary plasma without friction.
It is believed that this quark-glyuonovaya plasma-like fluid, there was only about a millionth of a second after the Big Bang. This substance has reached the maximum temperature of hot, man-made - 4 trillion degrees Celsius.
Most interesting is that other physicists have observed the same, almost perfect liquid samples of the atom, but at a temperature close to absolute zero, which is 10 million trillion colder than the quark plasma.
Physicist Stephen Vigdor (Steven Vigdor) said that it is one of the most unexpected connections that found between the physics of relativistic heavy-ion collider and other scientific achievements. "The unity of physics - a beautiful thing!", - He said.
It is worth noting that the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in the center (the center of the European Council for Nuclear Research), whose length of the accelerator ring is nearly 27 kilometers can perform a similar trick, but only at an energy density three times higher than the one that was used at Brookhaven. This means that one can achieve an increase in the absolute temperature is 30 percent higher as compared to those obtained using collider RHIC.
However, scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider, which is now focused on the study of quantum critical values and other conditions of the primary universe, still need to publish the results of that in the Guinness Book of Records recognized the new record
