According to an official statement from the Press Office of the CERN , dated August 9, the LHC will 
launched next November, a day to be determined.
The LHC was launched last September 2008 and suffered a malfunction in one of the superconductors that prevented optimal cooling degree for entry into service. Much has been said (pejoratively) on this ignorance, as we know it is too bold. But just remember that the design, development and implementation of a project and international multidisplinar these features, it has been almost two decades. Has been started without any inconvenience, despite the multiple testings to which he was subjected, had broken several chances against the given result.
That said, the CERN LHC is clear that going to start with low energies. The day they turn on "only" to 3.5 TeV will (remember that is designed to operate at energies above 150 TeV) to be "learning" how the collider and to avoid excessive fatigue to the new machine, with the so that both the LHC engineers and scientists as they learn together. This has been revised to 10,000 superconductors that have the device are in charge of the LHC will operate at temperatures close to absolute 0 (-273 ° K), hence the time and there has been little information about it to avoid creating unnecessary polemics.
I remind you that during commissioning is speculated by a patulea of "scientific salon" on the possibility that the LHC could develop a black hole that would end the world, all peppered with the premiere of the film Angels and Demons , which confuses the public with an item such as dark matter (antimatter in the film), peppered with the search by CERN's so-called Higgs boson , which is internationally known as the God particle. (This is a special particle that would help to understand certain loopholes in the current FísicaTeórica, especially in the field of quantum chromodynamics - I pledge to do a post on this interesting subject.)
As you can imagine pure science and marketing (either positive or negative) are not what you call a good match. However, according to Rolf Heuer, CERN Director General will take time to be developing a gradual and effective work. In 2010, the LHC will not run at higher power at 7 TeV and includes a check off for abnormalities prior to their major challenges.

I have understood that the maximum energy would be 7 TeV per channel (14 in total at the time of the collision)
You have not danced figures??
"Pejoratively" can be said to have spoken to me, for example, if you read my post, I have relied on CERN's own statements and the press.
if a project takes fifteen years to get going and that fifteen years is the guarantee that it will not work, best left to other hands most skilful.
Angels and Demons was released many months after the launch of the LHC. actually wanted to match the premiere for the second launch, scheduled for spring 2009.
7 TeV, spoken Heuer and 3.5 of which you speak your is the same, you talk of 3.5 per channel and total Heuer collision 7 Tev.
"Higgs boson" is not the bad name of any particle is a physical Higgs stated the existence of superheavy boson, to give coherence to the current theory of matter, called the standard model.
Dear "Grandma" appreciate you had the courtesy to read my post, but it should "listen" to what is written, for that to make a calm deduction of what is read.
According to what I describe, means you're someone who sums to the current "what the hell is this for?". Sounds good to me you want to say, is that in the end I'm sure you'll find that will have implications on the future of science.
Step-by to answer your comments.
Before posting someone talking about the Higgs Boson, and attention as if I did not know what he's talking, it would know that it was he who theorized there was someone before you and how you like research, then I encourage you to do so ( hence a current of current theoretical physics does not like to call it, but the media are stronger in this sense).
Another thing: I never understand any date or simultaneity between movie release and entry into operation of the LHC, I refer only to what was used all by certain reactionary sectors in the LHC are a threat to continue to maintain a "cosmogony "serves no logic at all (The truth is that a sustained marketing for 2000 years is hard to fight it).
About 15 years: Do you think the biggest launch complex engineering of the human race can be done in two days?, You know maybe how much energy, resources and brilliant minds were needed to implement only the idea? What You think a world others may seem otherwise. Know that the LHC and other devices in your environment, are the work of internationally coordinated multiple countries, their governments, universities and companies. In fact there are 2000 in Geneva, engineers and physicists working on it: in its operation and research projects, but there are also multiple teams in several countries in the world working for the LHC. If you can name just one experience in the evolution of humanity has given rise to this level of cooperation and integration of resources and different view points, congratulations. Already made the mental review. Answer: No. Lo and behold the greatness of the project and the need for so long. Why have some idea of how to refine machinery and tools to reach a temperature close to absolute 0?.
On energy, I refer to the above, start with a linear alignment test to 3.5 TeV (without collision, there will be "another channel") to verify that everything works. It is logical, because after what happened last year, if damaged (or was misplaced) a criodipolo, lead by the effects of a collision test reactor core damage (in the collimator of the explosions), which certainly would delay the project.
I think it's great that you feel attracted / a in these issues, albeit from a skeptical point of view (all views are needed), but should have a more accurate point of your performances.
But thank you very much for reading, (I read your post too) and hopefully help us to stimulate a dialogue that I see go for different positions.
See you on the web.
I'd like to tell me about the famous Theoretical Physics stream that takes away the merit of Professor Higgs. I love gossip
The idea that Angels & Demons was released while LHC was dangerous and reactionary three elements: the director of the film (which according to self-led CERN puff cap throughout the film), his protagonist, T. Hanks, (which stated that although no child was good at physics would love to push the button on the opening day) and the actual Heuer, director of the project

As the project is not carrying fifteen years in the struggle, but one of the three providers of electromagnets the blunder and manufactured a defective product.

Indeed it is not called "two channels", but two "beam pipes." The hadrons moving in two different directions by two "beam pipes" different. When they reach the detectors are focused by magnets toward the same point where the collision occurred.
So I'm skeptical, I have learned from all this mess of backroom cigar enthusiast, I wanted to write a post pretending to "advance science which is barbaric" ... and I found a kludge.

If you win, take a look at this post, and you will notice.
With no sense to accept revealed truths without more, does not make sense to accept the ideas of the scientists without sifting through reason. As it makes sense to comply without further moral ideas of a human being because he has gone through the seminar, it makes no sense to accept ideas without scientific analysis of a human being simply because it has gone by the University.
These eminent scientists are human and have the same faults and virtues that you or I: At times it right, others wrong and Others lie. (Remember Piltdown Man??
In terms of ideas more or less reactionary, if you think that the fact of wanting to invest money properly coming out of our (yes, yours too) Tax is reactionary, I'm reactionary. Indeed, I wonder how well you say, "what the hell is this for?" If it does not work ?????
Incidentally, as to rest on their laurels Tevatron going to wet the ear.

I read the other day that in equal conditions, collisions between leptons, particles composed of (in principle) are cleaner than hadron collisions (composed of quarks), which give so many particles that it is difficult to separate the wheat (the famous "so-called" Higgs), straw (whole multitude of particles produced)
Well, I leave you. As I said the other, this may be the beginning of a friendship laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarga
I placed your blog in my favorites and I'm sure I will enjoy every time I read it.
