I get the impression that things accelerated to the velocities required by CERN that then collide with each other tend not to leave much of anything behind but fundamental particles.

  He is essentially correct though, there is nothing organic or generally any compound remaining, only many singular particles. It is like an extremely hot plasma.

    Again matter cannot be destroyed, it was converted into heat/light.
