Scientists may have found two different Higgs bosons

Scientists studying data from the Large Hadron Collider who announced the possible discovery of the ‘God particle’ – Higgs boson – now say they may have actually found not one, but two previously unknown particles.

The most recent release from the Atlas experiment at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) showed [...]

What is the Higgs Boson?

Scientists at the CERN research centre near Geneva on 1st Wednesday of July 2012 unveiled their latest findings in their search for the Higgs boson, a subatomic particle key to the formation of stars, planets and eventually life after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago. Some facts about the ‘God particle’

‘God’s particle’: Significant contribution by Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics scientists

The Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics (SINP) said here today that its scientists had made significant contributions to the development of the CMS experiments at Geneva-based CERN.

“This led to the observation of the new particle at 125.3 GeV, consistent with a Higgs Boson as predicted by the Standard Model of Particle [...]

‘God particle’ is found, but devil in the details

To cheers and standing ovation, scientists at the world’s biggest atom smasher claimed the discovery of a new subatomic particle today, calling it “consistent” with the long-sought Higgs boson, popularly known as the ‘God particle’.

“We have now found the missing cornerstone of particle physics,” Rolf Heuer, Director of the European Center [...]

God particle-Higgs&Bose in Higgs Boson

Satyendra Nath Bose

The sub-atomic particle “boson” is named after Bengali physicist Satyendra Nath Bose whose pioneering work in the field in the early 1920s changed the way particle physics has been studied. The work done by Bose and Albert Einstein laid the foundation for the discovery of the God particle. While [...]
