Large Hadron Collider will put academic networks to the test

LHC Safety Assessment Group Report: Has any information been release about the status of the promised LHC Safety Assessment Group study?

I would like to know that before micro black holes may be created at a rate of up to 1 per second, that a rigorously peer reviewed safety study will be published in reputable physics journals and appropriate time will be given for reasonable peer review based on the possible consequences to the entire current and future populations of Earth.

I read the 1999 RHIC safety study, and it did not contain any statements as to the safety of actually creating micro black holes on Earth. It did not address issues of micro black hole stability, it did not address Hawking Radiation, it did not address capture rates by Earth?s gravity and it did not address Earth accretion times.

Will this be done before collisions begin at the Large Hadron Collider, currently predicted for as soon as Mid-August 2008?

Thank you, JTankers LHCConcerns.com
