Huge 2.7X Class Flare Eruption On Sun! Connection with CERN?

*****************************************

CERN and the Solar Tango- May 6th 2015

After a rather quiet period, Sol blasted into action again yesterday.  After 4 M Class Flares, Mr. Sunshine blasted off with an X 2.7 late last night around 22:00 UTC.   All very interesting needless to say, yet it became much more interesting this morning when I looked into CERN and what they were up to yesterday.....

Low-energy collisions tune LHC experiments

Two beams of protons at 450 GeV collide in the the CMS detector for a total collision energy of 900 GeV. The LHC experiments are using these collisions to tune and align their detectors (Image: CMS/CERN)

At about half past nine CET this morning, for the first time since the Large Hadron Collider(LHC) started up after two years of maintenance and repairs, the accelerator delivered proton-proton collisions to the LHC experiments ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb at an energy of 450 gigaelectronvolts (GeV) per beam.

These collisions, which take place with each beam at the so-called injection energy, that is, the energy at which proton beams are injected into the LHC from the Super Proton Synchrotron, enable the LHC experiments to tune their detectors. This process is also an important step towards readying the accelerator to deliver beams at 6.5 teraelectronvolts (TeV) for collisions at 13 TeV.
