Abstract
Two students from Bonn travel back in time with the aid of a caretaker to understand the fundamental nature of matter. They visit Rutherford and Geiger in Manchester around 1911, who recount their famous experiment on the nucleus and show how particle detectors work. They travel forward in time to meet Lawrence at Berkeley around 1950, teaching them about accelerators. They end up in the LHC tunnel at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland in 2012, where they watch live as the Higgs boson is produced and decays. The public travel with them through more than 20 live demonstration experiments.
