      I would like for the LHC experiment to discover whether or not there is a particle called the “Higgs boson”.

      We believe that this particle is the reason for why the there are stars and planets (and people) in the universe instead of just a smooth ‘soup’ of light.

      I want to find out what happens in the regions around a black hole, especially when it is tearing apart another star.
