And sure, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) may one day soon be the most powerful heavy-ion collider in the world (although it will spend most of its time investigating proton to proton collisions).

RHIC is currently the most powerful heavy-ion collider in the world, and while that title will be taken over by CERN's Large Hadron Collider later this year, RHIC will still maintain the lead in accelerating spin-polarized protons.

The most powerful operational heavy-ion collider in the world, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider RHIC recently recorded the highest ever temperature created in an Earth-based laboratory of 4 trillion Kelvin.

There is considerable interest in string theory among cosmologists, astrophysicists, particle phenomenologists, and heavy-ion nuclear theorists, because it acts as an “imagination stretcher” (to use a phrase first coined by Bjorken) for the fields with which it interacts.

One example of such a cascade facility is the GANIL accelerator complex in Caen, where two sector focusing cyclotrons are used for heavy-ion physics.

"The current running with proton collisions has allowed us to connect with results from other experiments at lower energies, test and improve the extrapolations made for the LHC, and prepare the ground for the heavy-ion runs," said Jurgen Schukraft, spokesperson for the ALICE collaboration.
