How much power would it take to create a black hole?

Feasibility of production In familiar three-dimensional gravity, the minimum energy of a microscopic black hole is 1016 TeV (equivalent to 1.6 GJ or 444 kWh), which would have to be condensed into a region on the order of the Planck length.

What would happen if a super collider exploded?

Given the amount of energy that Nature has stored in the matter of your body, your detonation would change the course of history and kill millions, leaving no trace of you except in the photons of energy that escape into space and the vibrations and heat captured by the planet.

Should we be worried about a black hole at the LHC?

That’s a major reason why we don’t need to fear creating a black hole at the LHC: if physicists managed the trick, the black hole would so small that it would vanish in a fraction of a fraction of a second. That’s too little time to pose a danger to particles in the detection chamber, let alone the world around it.

Can a Large Hadron Collider create a tiny black hole?

To date, the collider still has not produced any collisions, and it is the extreme energy of those collisions — up to 14 tera-electron volts — that could potentially create a microscopic black hole. Actually, once the LHC is running again and begins producing collisions, physicists will be ecstatic if it creates a tiny black hole.

Does the LHC have a gravity?

The widely accepted Standard Model of particle physics does not include gravity, which is one reason why it does not predict that the LHC would create a gravitationally collapsed point — a black hole — while string theory does. Many physicists have started to doubt whether string theory is true.

How fast do black holes lose energy?

A large black hole will lose energy very slowly, but a small one will evaporate in the blink of an eye. In fact, any black hole the LHC could possibly make, via any possible theory, will disappear before it can get near any other matter to gobble up.
