A Capella Science - Rolling in the Higgs (Adele Parody) The LHC Rap :Understanding Higgs' Boson. Higgs at 3.5 seconds into the melody. Listen to the music… at 3.5 into the recording you will be able to “hear” the sound of the newly discovered boson. That’s the beauty of sonification, a technique that translates dry data into beautiful melodies. Image edit by Katarina Anthony. Sonification is a computational technique that requires enormous amounts of networking and processing power to produce results.
The sonification of data presented on 4 July by the ATLAS collaboration was performed using the pan-European GÉANT network and the Grid infrastructure. The result is a melody that at 3.5 seconds reproduces the bump corresponding to the new particle. Because of its twofold aspect – scientific and artistic – sonification has gained increasing popularity over recent years. The team developing this powerful technique will continue sonifying data coming from the four LHC experiments, including other Higgs evidence. Read more on the Higgs sonification on the GÉANT Press Release. - Piano (solo), par Antonella Del Rosso.
