Re: LHC nears restart after repairs

Now created a mini big bang by colliding lead ions:

Re: LHC nears restart after repairs

Rumours that it may have found the Higgs Boson:

Wow! (If true)...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has picked up tantalising fluctuations which might - or might not - be hints of the sought-after Higgs boson particle.
But scientists stress caution over these "excess events", because similar wrinkles have been detected before only to disappear after further analysis.
Either way, if the sub-atomic particle exists it is running out of places to hide, says the head of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (Cern), which runs the LHC.
He told BBC News the collider had now ruled out more of the "mass range" where the Higgs might be.

Re: LHC nears restart after repairs(Higgs Bosun Update)

Indeedy been watching this with some interest and a semi-permanent hadron.

http://profmattstrassler.com/2011/07...iggs-searches/ has more for the very interested.

From the LHC's Atlas experiment see pages 5 and 6 of http://vixra.org/eps/299.pdf showing variance within a range of 120GeV to 140GeV.

BTW they are bosons not bosuns

Apologies.A mixture of poor eyesight and sheer ignorance of scientific terms.
