The newest Phlebotinum du Jour — nuclear power for The Noughties/The New '10s/Whatever The Hell This Decade Is Called. Presumably thanks to the massive publicity surrounding the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), particle accelerators have become the latest science thingy that can do anything. Note that this usually involves visible beams and massive tunnels that people can stand next to or even inside without suffering unpleasantness such as suffocation, freezing, boiling, electrocution or dying of radiation poisoning shortly after. | |

In Shin Megami Tensei IV, the Yamato Perpetual Reactor was originally built to study black holes. It also creates portals to other worlds, allowing demons and so-called "angels" to enter, and its true purpose is to create a black hole that will consume all of creation — all it takes is a push from a willing player character. | |

Homeworld: Most energy weapons in the series are a weaponised variant of this trope. The first version the player's faction can build is a spinal-mounted linear accelerator that takes up a whole frigate hull and is something of a Glass Cannon, but destroyers and cruisers can carry turreted versions. The player faction in Cataclysm go a rather different direction with their ion cannon frigate, which uses a closed-loop accelerator with five apertures leading to arrays of powerful electromagnets that act as turrets, resulting in individually weaker but much more rapid-fire particle beams and a very effective anti-starfighter vessel. | |

One of these sets up most of the plot of the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode "Repairs". The team believe that an accelerator explosion gave Hanna, a safety inspector working at the facility, telekinetic powers. It turns out that the accelerator was being used in an attempt to recreate the rifts from Thor: The Dark World and another employee, Tobias, got caught in one such rift created during the explosion. Tobias is now constantly moving between worlds, turning him into a pseudo-ghost, and he is "haunting" Hanna. | |

In Atomic Robo, Dr. Dinosaur blames the Large Hadron Collider for firing energies back in time and killing the dinosaurs (except for himself, who gained super-intelligence). Of course, Dr. Dinosaur is an idiot. (But that doesn't necessarily mean he's wrong...) In a Free Comic Book Day issue, an LHC test caused a problem that could rupture causality, and Robo and Dr. Dinosaur team up to fix it. Unfortunately, it was all a ruse by Dr. Dinosaur in order to sic a cyborg Tyrannosaurus on Robo. Robo and his team use the LHC to defeat it, reasoning that it's "a twenty-seven kilometer long proton cannon." |

In Mass Effect 3, a minor side planet had a particle accelerator wrapped in orbit around the entire planet for experimental use, but the Reapers went out of their way to destroy it. It's unclear whether they were worried about what people might discover from using it, or just over the fact that it wouldn't have taken much effort to turn it into a really big gun. | |

In The Flash (2014), Barry, as well as a number of other meta-humans, get their powers as a result of the particle accelerator explosion at S.T.A.R. Labs. The lightning that strikes Barry comes from a storm caused by the explosion. According to Dr. Wells, the explosion released "anti-matter, dark energy, X-elements" into the world with unknown effects. A later episode reveals that Eobard Thawne, AKA the Reverse-Flash, has traveled back in time and got stuck there. In order to find his way back to the future, he killed the real Dr. Wells and took on his appearance in order to build the particle accelerator half a decade earlier in order to ensure that Barry would get his powers earlier than in the original timeline, allowing "Wells" to train him and, eventually, tap into Barry's connection to the Speed Force. | |

The plot in Steins;Gate is based around the idea that the Large Haldron Collider successfully generated kerr black holes that could be used for the purposes of time travel. In a comical twist, the type of time travel the main cast uses, which only sends back small quantities of data, requires a much smaller particle accelerator. A CRT monitor in the room below them has to be on, thus why they were only able to activate it at certain times in the day. |

The "Saturn Ring" system in Darker than Black is an accelerator on the scale of Real Life colliders. It is supposed to destroy Gates along with everything and everyone linked to them. Or at least one quite competent Mad Scientist is quite sure it should, anyway. There is some commotion when the news about this leakes out, of course. Note that the tunnels around the storage ring are evacuated — as far as people for whom "workplace safety" extends are concerned. And that the damaged tube looks like it's under some heavy fire even when no one hits it anymore. | |

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3: Parodied in the first game, where the Allies have a particle accelerator as their Superweapon. They use it as a giant gun that causes a chain-reaction (since nuclear weapons no longer exist in the timeline), but considering some of the other weapons in the setting, it's obviously a subtle crack at the LHC debacle. Taken even further in the expansion's Soviet campaign, where the Sigma Harmonizer is a huge circular facility that is the map (and looks strangely familiar for some reason◊), which is used to stop time. Somehow. |

The first New 52 Detective Comics storyline featured a Wayne Enterprises scientist named Hugh Marder who'd built an exact duplicate of the LHC, which he uses to create clones of himself in an attempt to cure his genetic disorder. One of the clones became a Dr Phospherus type called Mr Toxic. Also, the exact duplicate of the LHC fits in Marder's office in the middle of Wayne Tower, and Lucius Fox thinks the purpose of the LHC is "to create a black hole". | |

Though never actually explained, the brief view on approach to Terra Nova's Hope Plaza include a pair of massive circular structures, probably intended to be particle-accelerator components. Presumably this means that achieving Time Travel requires a Magical Particle Accelerator in this setting. | |

Tales from the Loop: The titular "Loop" is the world's largest particle accelerator, located in Sweden (and its 'sister' located in Boulder City, Nevada), which has turned the cities surrounding it into Eerie, Indiana-esque Weirdness Magnet sites (this comparison is deliberate by the design — the game takes a lot of inspiration from kids' adventure stories from The '80s). | |

Silent Möbius has a giant particle accelerator underneath Tokyo that plays a major role in Project Gaia, a failed attempt to solve Earth's energy or pollution problems or something like that. Magic is also involved in the project. | |

The apocalypse in the 6th edition of Gamma World was caused by the LHC. It made a bunch of alternate universes converge into one, most of them where the Cold War went nuclear. It also conveniently allowed the writers to include everything from the previous editions. | |
