Sonification of LHC data

13 TeV ATLAS data "sonified" by the Quantizer group.

Improvised.  Needs to be edited...

Prerecorded clip from the "Spacey" track using the "ATLAS masterclass data set" that was played at Montreux Jazz Festival: The Physics of Music and the Music of Physics.  Composed by Evan Lynch.

What is an ATLAS masterclass? It is where kids gets the opportunity to learn how to do a particle physics analysis !  http://physicsmasterclasses.org/

Sonification of CERN/ATLAS data

Through a combination of high speed research networks, advanced sonification techniques and grid computing the world can now ‘hear’ the newly discovered Higgs Boson-like particle.

Research networks, including the pan-European GÉANT network, were critical components in the global infrastructure that helped find the new particle, delivering immense volumes of experimental data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to thousands of scientists around the world for analysis and then providing the connectivity for them to share their results amongst the entire research community.

In the music the peak of high notes in the second bar is the appearance of the Higgs-like particle (about 3.5 seconds into the recording). The researchers created two versions, one as a piano solo, and the second with added bass, percussion, marimba and xylophone.

Sonification of Higgs Boson

Domenico Vicinanza is a particle physicist and a composer and has written a song whose notes are defined by the data points drawn from the research around the Higgs boson.
