One of the biggest, and most successful, experiments ever built, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), is about to be switched on again.

The upgrade will allow the LHC, which won Peter Higgs and the scientists at Cern (the European Organisation for Nuclear Research) near Geneva the Nobel prize, to run at nearly twice the energy.

The giant atom smashing machine buried under the alps on the Swiss/French border, which famously proved the existence of the Higgs Boson in 2012, has been off-line for more than 18 months while it undergoes the upgrade.

Science editor Tom Feilden reported that physicists are hoping for even more spectacular results. So spectacular in fact that they really don't know what they're going to find.

"It's definitely a exploration, where it will get us to, we don't know," said professor of high energy physics at University College London, and member of the Atlas experiment at CERN, Jon Butterworth.

鈥淢ore energy means more matter particles, which means more fun physics,鈥� said experimental physicist Dr Sam Harper.
