Large Hadron Collider discovers its first new particle since beginning in 2009

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), famously engaged in the quest for the Higgs boson, has turned up a heavier variant of a sub-atomic particle first discovered a quarter-century ago, scientists reported on Thursday


We don’t call it the "God particle," it’s just the media that do that,” a senior U.S. scientist politely told an interviewer on a major European radio station on Tuesday.

Eight reasons the Higgs boson particle hunt matters

Physicists, including scientists from Canada, said Tuesday that they's narrowed the search for the elusive sub-atomic Higgs boson particle that would confirm the way science describes the Universe. Here is why it matters:

Higgs boson, the most ‘elegant’ way to describe our reality… but don’t call it the ‘God particle’

Robert Orr, a University of Toronto physicist who was involved with the latest development regarding the Higgs boson particle claimed Higgs boson is "the most elegant way humans can build a theory for describing reality."

Scientists find ‘tantalizing hints’ of Higgs boson, but stop short of claiming ‘God Particle’ discovery

CERN scientists announced on Tuesday that they've found signs of the Higgs boson, the missing link of particle physics, but they're stopping short of claiming discovery

The search for the Higgs boson: Inside the Large Hadron Collider

On the eve of a a seminar on Tuesday at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), about the Higgs Boson, or "God Particle," we take a look inside the massive atom-smashing machine known as the Large Hadron Collider, which is at the heart of the discovery

The search for the Higgs Boson: How does the Large Hadron Collider work?

A proton accelerated through the Large Hadron Collider's 27-km underground ring in Geneva contains the energy equivalent to a person driving a mid-sized vehicle at 1,700 km/hour

Higgs boson sighting will open door to ‘New Physics’: CERN

By Robert Evans Scientists predicted this weekend that sighting of the first strong signs of a particle vital to support Einstein’s ideas on the working of the universe will be reported Tuesday by the CERN physics research center. While warning there would be no announcement of a full scientific discovery, they said even confirmation that […]

Large Hadron Collider: Have scientists found the ‘God particle’?

Researchers hoping to find the Higgs Boson particle, or “God Particle,” by recreating Big Bang conditions inside Switzerland’s Large Hadron Collider are expected to announce new developments Tuesday, Dec. 13 in Geneva. The Higgs Boson is believed to be the missing ingredient in what is needed to explain the existence of mass in the universe. […]
