What speeds do particles in the center of an atomic blast achieve?

How do they compare to the velocities of particles in an experiment at the LHC?

The nuclei and neutrons can reach a few percent the speed of light. Everything else is much slower.

Protons in the LHC reach 0.999 999 991 times the speed of light.

Electrons in LEP (same tunnel, previous accelerator) reached 0.999 999 999 99 times the speed of light, the fastest "man-accelerated" particles apart from neutrinos.
