LHC people are newbs. They won’t give up until they blow up their billion dollars facility. I will laugh at them when it happens.

Once the weight paper is on the balance with chemicals on it, it stays on the balance until you get the 4 digits you are looking for. The chemical balance is done on top with a spatula. If you get the exact reading you close doors and see if it’s really the reading you want.

I know why they tell you to add/remove chems outside the balance…the faculty doesn’t wana pay extra maintenance costs to clean them…you will be much more precise if you let the damn thing in there ^_^

Nice guide but unrealistic. Nobody in his right mind would go through all those steps when you have 100 measurements waiting for you, and also considering you have to go home to eat or spend time with your kids ^_^

thanks for putting MIT lectures online for free. I feel smarter already.
