    I don’t believe these kind of tests are done at CERN. I could be wrong but I think FermiLab specializes in some kind of muon study.

    Either way, I imagine it just takes a really long time to gather data.

      The LHC does have a team competition with them, but you might be right about the specialization.

      That said, a rival team at Europe’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are hoping to get there first.
