I can’t quite put this into words but the idea of a transmutation circle actually being the track of a particle collider is just so funny to me.
This is the plot of countless animes. New magical dude becomes ruler of the city state, constructs 5 new buildings that end up drawing a citywide transmutation circle to harvest all of the souls/etc
I actually can’t think of anything I’ve watched with that has exactly that plot, but I suspect the progenitor of that sort of Geomancy in anime is the novel series Teito Monogatari. (One or two adaptations were released in English under the name Doomed Megalopolis).
Just a tidbit.

One episode of The Librarians involves a college student building a mini particle accelerator that (unintentionally) uses a magic circle around the campus as its track, which when activated opens a portal into another dimension filled with monsters.
OK Elon.
Edit: this was a joke, in case it wasn’t clear.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that most of your downvotes are from people who didn't find your joke funny, not from people who believe you sincerely but incorrectly identified the parent poster.
shrug can’t please everybody.
