About This Video

ALICE is unique among the four major Large Hadron Collider experiments because it is the only experiment analyzing collisions between atomic nuclei instead of proton–proton collisions. Physicist Jennifer Klay explains how scientists will use the LHC to recreate the conditions of the universe just after the Big Bang, and how ALICE looks specifically at phases of matter in this era.
