Historic Alchemy Breakthrough After Decades of Failed Experiments Physicists at CERN have achieved a groundbreaking milestone by successfully transforming lead into gold through high-energy particle collisions at the Large Hadron Collider, marking a modern-day achievement reminiscent of ancient alchemy.
Scientists with the ALICE collaboration successfully transformed lead into gold using Europe's Large Hadron Collider. By having lead atoms narrowly avoid each other instead of colliding directly, they produced 89,000 gold atoms per second. Via ABC News: https://bit.ly/4kp4DjU
