Higgs boson (so-called 'God' particle) may have been found
So this Wednesday, CERN is holding a big to-do where it is expected they will announce that the long sought Higgs boson (unfortunately named the 'God' particle in the popular press) has been found because of work done by the team at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider).
If it's true (and all the signs point toward that being the case) this would be the biggest piece of physics news in the best part of 100 years. The Standard Model, which is the prevailing working explanation for why the particles exist and have the masses (energies) they do has had one piece of information missing: why do particles have mass at all? The Higgs boson (named after Peter Higgs who first proposed the existence of the particle four decades ago) is purported to be the particle that gives other particles their mass. This is why it is called the 'God particle'. It has absolutely nothing to do with theism, it doesn't prove or disprove God, all it does is explain why particles have mass but that 'all' is a BIG deal because without that mass particles would never bind together to form atoms. No atoms, no anything else. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencete...Wednesday.html Cheers Aj

Here is an outstanding presentation on what the Higgs boson is and why it's a such a big deal:

It's Higgs!!!
So it appears that both the ATLAS and CMS experiments found a particle that has the properties hypothesized for the Higgs Boson! Well, that would just about wrap up the Nobel prize in Physics this year (or possibly next).

I don't know why this is surprising. To me it is common sense. Neanderthals using medicinal plants.
