GRAPHICS

Back when I was one of the accelorator operators, I often was asked, how do you know it's working? I loved to answer "We don't" even though it wasn't true. We have all sorts of instruments and monitors setup so that we can tell where the protons are. But high energy physics isn't rocket science, it's harder. A rocket scientist get's to look at his rocket with his own eyes. When he flips the on switch, there is a rumble, flame, and hopefully something goes flying into the air. When a high energy scientist flips the on switch, there is really nothing he can look at unless he has rigged up some graphic display to show him something.
So let's look at some of those monitors and graphics.
