== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* "Saturn Ring" system in ''[[Darker Thanthan Black]]'' was an accelerator on the scale of [[Real Life]] colliders. It was supposed to destroy [[Reality Is Out to Lunch|Gates]] along with [[Alien Sky|everything]] and [[Differently-Powered Individual|everyone]] linked to them. Or at least one quite competent [[Mad Scientist]] is quite sure it should, anyway. There was some commotion when the news about this leaked out, of course. Note that the tunnels around the storage ring are evacuated -- as far as people on whom "workplace safety" extends are concerned. {{spoiler|And that the damaged tube looks like it's under some heavy fire even when no one hits it anymore.}}
* The plot in [[Steins;Gate]] is based around the idea that the Large Haldron Collider is going to be used in some way to destroy or take over or *something* the world.
* While the actual LHC and similar devices are nowhere in sight, [[Tsutomu Nihei]]'s ''[[Knights Of Sidonia]]'' has most of the [[Applied Phlebotinum]] fueled by Higgs Bosons and the [[Humongous Mecha]] can perform power boosting combination maneuvers by linking arms together to form a ring, invoking the shape of a toroidal accelerator.

== [[Literature]] ==
* ''[[Angels and& Demons]]'' features an accelerator at CERN being used to produce enough [[Antimatter]] to blow up the Vatican (CERN does really produce antimatter, but only a tiny fraction of that amount).
* In the novel ''[[Flash Forward]]'', firing the LHC at the exact moment a neutron star erupts starts the plot's [[Timey-Wimey Ball|Timey Wimequake]].
