Scientists at the world’s biggest atom smashing facility near GENEVA claimed the discovery of a new subatomic particle on Wednesday. They found it to be “consistent” with the long-sought Higgs boson, popularly known as the “God particle” that helps explain what gives size and shape to all matter in the universe.Signaling a likely end to one of the longest, most expensive searches in the history of science, physicists said Wednesday that they had discovered a new subatomic particle that looks for all the world like the Higgs boson, a key to understanding why there is diversity and life in the universe.Like Omar Sharif materializing out of the shimmering desert as a man on a camel in "Lawrence of Arabia," the elusive boson has been coming slowly into view since last winter, as the first signals of its existence grew until they practically jumped off the chart.


Higgs Boson; status updated!

God:Myths Rule and Superstitios Religion trandslated in Zionist Manusmriti Apartheid War Monger Imperialist Corporate Global Order of ethnic Cleansing Destroy the Galaxy!
Our respected friend John Dayal has posted a most relevant question on Face Book!

How does the God particle impact on religious fanataics -- Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsee, Judaism , scientology and others? And what was there before the God particle, and the Big bang?

What about the Christians, Mr Dayal?

In recent years, Indians have become more narrow-minded and intolerable of outside criticism as nationalism sentiment rises, with some of them even turning to hegemony. Given the country's history, hegemony is a hundred-percent result of British colonialism.Many Indians didn't know that Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, had once said that India could not play an inferior role in the world, and it should either be a superpower or disappear. Super Power India, is thus not a concept coined by the Hindutva forces!The dream of superpower is mingled with the thought of hegemony!Mind you , with religious Nationalism in vogue, it is most dangerous for the existence of the Majority Bahujan Masses. Higgs Boson should break this Hegemony first as it denies the existence of God and religious identity has no base and caste Identity also stand nullified!Throughout the history, India has constantly been under foreign rule. The essence for the rise of India lies in how to be an independent country, to learn to solve the complicated ethnic and religious issues, to protect the country from terrorist attacks, to boost economic development as well as to put more efforts on poverty alleviation. The development must be Inclusive which is in fact exclusive!

Hence, it is a point of great urgency that we must welcome the theory propounded long before and established now in the greatest Scientific experiment.We have to get rid of RELIGION!

Long before while I did interview the rebel writer Taslima Nasrin in Kolkata, the exiled Rebel had told until Religion is not finished Human Rights, Equality and Social justice remain IMPOSSIBLE. The Marxist Ideology deny the existence of God and brand Religion as Opium but the Marxists in India are engaged in Hegemony Power Politics to sustain the Manusmriti Rule which is based on Religion. Ambedkar`s Mission to ANNIHILATE Caste is quite an IMPOSSIBLE Mission as the excommunicated excluded majority masses in India have become the foot soldiers of Communal Hindutva of Genocide Culture as they identify themselves with religious identity. America`s War against Terror and Israel`s Crusade against Islam also are fanatically religious in Nature.

We should agree that the CERN Results are not going to invoke any Revolution which would change the world and the power equations overnight. But the God`s Particles found in the Greatest ever Experiment should help us to kill the Communal Hegemony Rule of Discrimination, Aaprtheid, Communalism, Exclusion, Excommunication, Hatred, war and Civil War. We have got enough from science. We have achieved enough technology and Nuclear warheads to destroy us. At least this should help us to make it possible, the sustenance of the Galaxy, Mankind, Nature and Peace!

I am afraid that it would boost the Global Hidutva as Science has helped Zionism to grow like the Devil. Since  the discovery of a new sub-atomic particle that is crucial to understanding how the universe is built announced in Geneva  has an intrinsic Indian connection.A large number of Indian scientists, representing the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics (SINP), Kolkata, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, Harishchandra Research Institute, Allahabad and Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar, were involved in the world's most ambitious experiment over the years.

Science has made way for Capitalism and Technology has made the world a Global Market. Albert Einstein did never know that his energy theory would result in a Nuclear World.But Science also did strengthen Religion in a better way. Philosophy and Ideologies could not stop hegemony Rule. In India, since Charvak, the Existence of god is being denied long before Marx and Mao. But the Vedic Culture bloomed and bloomed. The Neo Liberal Open Market economy and Free Capital Inflow resurrected the Brahaminical Hindu Nationalism afresh which aligned with Zionist Corporate Imperialism. The Marxists surrendered. Bengal and Kerala had been leading in Indian Communist Movement, but the Brahaminical Hegemony is more strong in these states. If you travel by Metro which is a vehicle of Kolkata Middle Class Educated elite people, you would see ninety nine out of hundred wearing all kinds of Stones on all of their fingers. durga Puja, justifying the Genocide culture had been Cultural festival even during Marxist Rule.

The Resurgent Hindutva rules Gujarat led by Narendra Modi Brand Hindu Nationalist and the state is handed over to corporate India breaking the Scheduled areas, too.

Hence, Religion has been always the best tool of Exclusion and Excommunication, Discrimination and Apartheid.The rulers promote Religion to polarise Power equation favouring the Hegemony which they represent. The Monarchy still survives as the representation of God.
Religion is a collection of cultural systems, belief systems, and worldviews that relate humanity to spirituality and, sometimes, to moral values.[note 1] Many religions have narratives, symbols, traditions and sacred histories that are intended to give meaning to life or to explain the origin of life or the universe. They tend to derive morality, ethics, religious laws or a preferred lifestyle from their ideas about the cosmos and human nature.

The word religion is sometimes used interchangeably with faith or belief system, but religion differs from private belief in that it has a social aspect.[1] Many religions have organized behaviors, clergy, a definition of what constitutes adherence or membership, congregations of laity, regular meetings or services for the purposes of veneration of a deity or for prayer, holy places (either natural or architectural), and/or scriptures. The practice of a religion may also include sermons, commemoration of the activities of a god or gods, sacrifices, festivals, feasts, trance, initiations, funerary services, matrimonial services, meditation, music, art, dance, public service, or other aspects of human culture. However, there are examples of religions for which some or many of these aspects of structure, belief, or practices are absent.

As India emerged as a post Modern free market , all elements of Religion boosted on superfast speed. Hindutva is Global now and aligned with Global Zionism as well as corporate Imperialism. With the advance of modern education, science and technology, we have tended to become more religious, more superstitious. We live the life transforming it a set of Rituals only.

Religious Highest seat and the Ruling Hegemony defend each other. Thus, I am not concerned with the scientific or technical advantage with CERN result. I am  interested in the Denial of the Existence of God which made Religion irrelevant, illogical and even illegal!The central thesis of the Charvaka philosophy is worldly materialism.In a similar way, Marxist Philosphy also emphasises on the Material Empowerment of the proletariat !The proletariat (from Latin proletarius, a citizen of the lowest class) is a term used to identify a lower social class, usually the working class; a member of such a class is proletarian. Originally it was identified as those people who had no wealth other than their children.As defined in the Constitution of the Roman Republic, the proletarii was a social class of Roman citizens owning little or no property.

The origin of the name is presumably linked with the census, which Roman authorities conducted every five years to produce a register of citizens and their property from which their military duties and voting privileges could be determined. For citizens with property valued 11,000 asses or less, which was below the lowest census for military service, their children—proles (from Latin proli, "offspring")—were listed instead of their property; hence, the name proletarius, "the one who produces offspring". The only contribution of a proletarius to the Roman society was seen in his ability to raise children, the future Roman citizens who can colonize new territories conquered by the Roman Republic and later by the Roman Empire. The citizens who had no property of significance were called capite censi because they were "persons registered not as to their property...but simply as to their existence as living individuals, primarily as heads (caput) of a family."[1][2]


In a similar way, DR BR Ambedkar `s theory of Caste Annihilition is all about Material Welfare of the working class which consists of the excommunicated , Excluded communities in India. The caste system is an economic system which ensures Supremacy of the Ruling Hegemony and it has got the religious sanctity with all kinds of Holy Scripts whose authenticity whad been challenged by Charvaka in the very Vedic Period.

Charvaka is the materialistic and naturalistic school of thoughts in India Philosophy.  Charvaka, literally one who speaks sweet, founded his philosophy on the thoughts of this world rather than the mystic accounts of Vedas and supernatural god and heaven.  Charvaka denies the authenticity and holiness of Vedas and hence is termed as Nastika (nonbeliever) by the Vedic tradition.[1]  He denied the existence of supernatural God.  He denied the claims that the Vedas are created by God.  He held that they are made by human beings and so they must be open to scrutiny.  To him the Vedas were mere utterances, devoid of any meaning, meant to "confound and confuse the common people."

The central thesis of the Charvaka philosophy is worldly materialism.  This consists of at least two basic principles:  Firstly, there is nothing beyond the life except physiochemical and neuropsychological functions; and secondly, the soul and after life are stories of fantasy as the gods and demons.  Such belief were quite contrary to the chanting and rituals of the Vedic ways.  Because of propagating such beliefs, Charvakas had to confront with the Vedicas several times and the Brahmins showed the greatest cruelty to finish Charvakas several times.  In fact, we can read in Mahabharata how a Charvaka was burnt dead by the Brahmanas in the court of Yudhishthira itself.[2]

Charvaka represented one of the very first skeptic rebels in the world history and we see today that the world believe more in the philosophy of Charvaka's materialism rather than the mystic Vedicas and cunning Mimansa.  Whatever say the Vedic tradition; this is the victory of Charvakas over the Brahminical tradition of mysticism and unreality.  This marks the greatness of Charvaka over the Vedic tradition.  But the greatness of their school should not be judged based only on this victory.  Charvakas were among the first philosophers in the world history to raise question against the traditional knowledge and this gives them the unique place in the world history.  Charvaka merely stand for those skeptical rebels who has spoken out in all great civilizations now and again.

Edward Said’s concept of Orientalism portrays the high tide of nineteenth-century impe-rialism as the defining moment in the establishment of a global discursive hegemony, inwhich European attitudes and concepts gained a universal validity. The idea of “religion”was central to the civilizing mission of imperialism, and was shaped by the interests of anumber of colonial actors in a way that remains visibly relevant today. In East andSoutheast Asia, however, many of the concerns that statecraft, law, scholarship, and con-version had for religion transcended the European impact. Both before and after the peri-od of European imperialism, states used religion to engineer social ethics and legitimaterule, scholars elaborated and enforced state theologies, and the missionary faithful voicedthe need for and nature of religious conversion. The real impact of this period was to inte-grate pre-existing concerns into larger discourses, transforming them in the process. Theideals of national citizenship and of legal and scholarly impartiality recast the state and itsinstitutions with a modernist sacrality, which had the effect of banishing the religious fromthe public space. At the same time, the missionary discourse of transformative conversionlocated it in the very personal realm of sincerity and belief. The evolution of colonial-eradiscourses of religion and society in Asia since the departure of European imperial powerdemonstrates both their lasting power and the degree of agency that remains implicit inthe idea of hegemony.

The basic Problem for India`s Excluded Masses which consists of Ninet Nine percent of the Population is that not only the Polity and Economy have been Americanised but Hindutva is alos Americansed. Public Gospel has gradually become the most powerful medium to spread the influence of the Hegemony which is essentially religious in nature. More over, the feudal set up of Hinduva had been reformed in movements like Nav Jagaran in Bengal. The Ruling class adoted the European Hegemony mould during the British Period. Specifically, the Bengali elite Ruling Class replicated the British Imperialist most successfully and designed a  demographic readjustment to eject out the elements of resistence, the Scheduled Castes from East Bengal and for that they did everything to ensure the Partition of India. Eventually, the Hegemony in Bengal has monopoly in every sphere of life in bengali Geopolitics.

Mind you,From 1880 to 1920, missionaries from Europe were a significant part of life in Africa. The movement of Christian missionaries and imperialism in Africa was significant in shaping the history of the region. Colonization, Inter-cultural experience, and the fall of some traditional African religions all came as a result of missionaries. At the height of the movement,there were more than 10,000 missionaries in Africa. They served as educators to many Africans and preached the ways of Christianity to the natives.

Missionaries and explorers went very much hand in hand. After hearing of the African continent from missionaries, many explorers ventured into the largely unknown area of sub-Saharan Africa. David Livingstone would spend thirty years exploring sub-Saharan Africa. Livingstone sent home reports of the land and people that excited Europeans. Just as he had been prompted to explore Africa by reports of missionaries, he would send home word that made European governments eager to set up colonies and take advantage of the abundant natural resources that existed. Despite doubt and dislike for imperialism that came from some Europeans, the movement continued. By the mid-1800's there was a new demand in Africa, and it was for palm oil. This oil was used for making soap and candles. It could be produced in large amounts in parts of West Africa. Other raw materials existed in Africa that were attractive to Europeans. These included rubber and minerals that were coveted by a rapidly industrializing Europe.

Many imperial powers in Europe set up colonies, some armed with troops, to protect its assets. These assets, primarily missionaries and raw materials were integral parts of the colonial structure. Britain, France, Portugal, the Ottoman Empire, Spain and Germany were among the countries who set up colonies. Although many of the gains of Europe occurred at the expense of traditional Africa, little was done to stop it. Acquisition of new territory, trade, interracial relations and other things happened as a result of religion and its impact.

Religious imperialism has been defined to encompass a “policy of extending a nation’s authority by economic and political means over other nations”1 in the name of religion. Whether it is the government using religious imperialism as an excuse or a means to gain support to help back their plans of invasion, or by American conservative Christians, who are trying to spread Christianity to all corners of the earth, religious imperialism is a term that a third party will usually use to describe such actions and intentions on the part of such members of an American government and peoples.

Protestant ministers, during the late 1800's and early 1900's, led a movement known as the Social Gospel, which acted as a response, primarily to Social Darwinism. It was depicted as "believing that service to fellow humans provided the way to securing individual salvation and to creating God's kingdom on earth, Social Gospelers actively participated in social reform and governed their lives..."6 This view was formed initially as a response to Social Darwinism within the United States, however, many later interpreted it to apply to not only change people within their immediate social circles domestically, but abroad as well. Social Darwinism was viewed as a general threat that undermined fundamental Christian beliefs, thus conservative Christians attempted to act on it promptly, by spreading the Gospel to as many people as possible.

Whether it is from churches or other fellowships, members are urged to go and serve on mission trips, to spread the Gospel. The missionaries have evolved to include a more humanitarian approach to people and serving. For example, many times, people have not directly gone abroad to spread the Gospel, but will serve underprivileged communities instead, providing medical supplies to rural parts of China, helping to educate the poor, building housing for refugees in South Korea, teaching English in North Korea, and much more. Though they view their presence abroad as a Christian influence above all else, they should not forget that they are also ambassadors of the United States of America. Especially in communist, nationalist Asian nations, it is easy to spot English-speaking visitors who are praying for and converting natives. In countries where practicing religion is prohibited, such as North Korea, China, and Vietnam, it is dangerous for natives to even be seen with Christian missionaries. Unfortunately, Christian missionaries oftentimes underestimate their ability to do harm instead of good, and do not realize that they are under surveillance abroad, and will put natives at risk for problems with the local government.

In recent years, the Christian population in the United States has been steadily declining, but in a 2004 poll by ABC News, it was discovered that approximately 83% of the American population identifies itself with being Christian; 53% of the Christians being Protestant2. Furthermore, according to a study conducted by the Barna Group in 2004, Christians represented 45-50%3 of all voters, thus they have been and still are the most crucial body within the United States. Even in the 1960 Presidential Election, Kennedy was in doubt of winning the election partially due to his Catholic background, seeing that his predecessors and successors were almost all of the Protestant faith. Since there are so many who claim to be Christians within the United States, politicians recognize this majority, and will often try to appeal to the moral standards and beliefs of this majority. This powerful Christian majority has often influenced political agendas and policies, including imperialistic ones.

When Higgs first proposed that an invisible field strewn across space gave mass to the building blocks of the universe, the theory was ridiculed by some of the most respected minds of the time.His first paper was rejected by a journal, while other scientists accused him and his colleagues of failing to grasp the basic principles of physics.
Despite the sleights Higgs, at the time a 34-year-old physicist at Edinburgh University, was convinced that his idea was right although he never envisaged being able to prove it.48 years on, his radical concept was finally proved correct by an international team of physicists at the CERN laboratory using a 6-billion-pound piece of equipment, designed to uncover the secrets of the Universe, on Wednesday.


Stephen Hawking has said that Peter Higgs deserved a Nobel Prize for the groundbreaking discovery of the " God particle", but admitted that the findings have come at a cost for him.The 70-year-old theoretical physicist lost a 100-dollar bet as he believed that the Higgs Boson wouldn't be found.

"I had a bet with Gordon Kane of Michigan University that the Higgs particle wouldn't be found. It seems I have just lost 100 dollars," the Telegraph quoted Hawking as saying.

The Indian link to the world's ambitious experiment was also significantly reflected in comments ahead of the announcement by CERN scientists that a sub-atomic particle "consistent" with the Higgs boson or 'God particle' has been spotted.

"India is like a historic father of the project," said Paolo Giubellino, spokesperson of Geneva-based European Organisation for Nuclear Research, famously known as CERN.

n Geneva, 1,000 people stood in line all night to get into an auditorium at CERN, where some attendees noted a rock-concert ambience. Peter Higgs, the University of Edinburgh theorist for whom the boson is named, entered the meeting to a sustained ovation.

Confirmation of the Higgs boson or something very much like it would constitute a rendezvous with destiny for a generation of physicists who have believed in the boson for half a century without ever seeing it. The finding affirms a grand view of a universe described by simple and elegant and symmetrical laws - but one in which everything interesting, like ourselves, results from flaws or breaks in that symmetry.

According to the Standard Model, the Higgs boson is the only manifestation of an invisible force field, a cosmic molasses that permeates space and imbues elementary particles with mass. Particles wading through the field gain heft the way a bill going through Congress attracts riders and amendments, becoming ever more ponderous.

Without the Higgs field, as it is known, or something like it, all elementary forms of matter would zoom around at the speed of light, flowing through our hands like moonlight. There would be neither atoms nor life.

Physicists said that they would probably be studying the new particle for years. Any deviations from the simplest version predicted by current theory - and there are hints of some already - could begin to answer questions left hanging by the Standard Model. For example, what is the dark matter that provides the gravitational scaffolding of galaxies?

And why is the universe made of matter instead of antimatter?

"If the boson really is not acting standard, then that will imply that there is more to the story - more particles, maybe more forces around the corner," Neal Weiner, a theorist at New York University, wrote in an email. "What that would be is anyone's guess at the moment."

Wednesday's announcement was also an impressive opening act for the Large Hadron Collider, the world's biggest physics machine, which cost $10 billion to build and only began operating two years ago. It is still running at only half-power.

As scientists thrashed out the 'God particle' in its physical form in a giant collider, there was palpable excitement at SINP since its scientists had made significant contributions to the development of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiments at CERN.

The long-sought particle, known as Higgs boson, is also partly named after an Indian scientist Satyendra Nath Bose, who worked with Albert Einstein in the 1920s and made discoveries that led to the most coveted prize in particle physics.

Stating that it was a historical moment in physics and SINP took pride in being a part of the history, the Institute irector Milan Sanyal said "It will require more data and intense scrutiny to establish these findings beyond any doubt.

"This is an important moment for the development of science and I am very happy that our institute, this city and our country is part of the science revolution," he told PTI in Kolkata.

He said that the core CMS team of the SINP had five faculty members — group leader Prof Sunanda Banerjee, Prof Satyaki Bhattacharya, Prof Suchandra Datta, Prof Subir Sarkar and Prof Manoj Saran.

The phrase " God particle" was coined by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Leon Lederman but is used by laymen, not physicists, as an easier way of explaining how the subatomic universe works and got started.

Meanwhile, Cosmologist Archan Majumder, who is attached with the S N Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, today termed the spotting of the sub-atomic particle "consistent" with the 'God Particle' as a victory for human civilization.

"The discovery is revolutionary in human history. This is a great victory of the fundamental knowledge of human civilization," Majumder told here.

The 'God Particle' of Higgs Boson is regarded as key to understanding the formation of the universe.

"There has been a strong indication of finding the much-awaited new subatomic particle which, though requiring more and more experiments for confirmation in coming years, will go a long way in unravelling the mystery of the evolution of the universe," he said.

Besides scientists from the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, those from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, Harishchandra Research Institute, Allahabad and Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar, were involved in the CERN experiment over the years, he said.



Scientists working at the world's biggest atom smasher near Geneva have announced the discovery of a new subatomic particle that looks remarkably like the long-sought Higgs boson. Sometimes called the "God particle" because its existence is fundamental to the creation of the universe, the hunt for the Higgs involved thousands of scientists from all over the world.

WHAT IS THE GOD PARTICLE ANYWAY?

School physics teaches that everything is made up of atoms, and inside atoms are electrons, protons and neutrons. They, in turn, are made of quarks and other subatomic particles. Scientists have long puzzled over how these minute building blocks of the universe acquire mass. Without mass, particles wouldn't hold together and there would be no matter.

One theory proposed by British physicist Peter Higgs and teams in Belgium and the United States in the 1960s is that a new particle must be creating a "sticky" field that acts as a drag on other particles. The atom-smashing experiments at CERN, the European Center for Nuclear Research, have now captured a glimpse of what appears to be just such a Higgs-like particle.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?

The Higgs is part of many theoretical equations underpinning scientists' understanding of how the world came into being. If it doesn't exist, then those theories would need to be fundamentally overhauled. The fact that it apparently does exist means scientists have been on the right track with their theories. But there's a twist: the measurements seem to diverge slightly from what would be expected under the so-called Standard Model of particle physics. This is exciting for scientists because it opens the possibility to potential new discoveries including a theory known as "super-symmetry" where particles don't just come in pairs - think matter and anti-matter - but quadruplets, all with slightly different characteristics.

HOW MUCH DID IT COST?

CERN's atom smasher, the Large Hadron Collider, alone cost some $10 billion to build and run. This includes the salaries of thousands of scientists and support staff around the world who collaborated on the two experiments that independently pursued the Higgs.

WERE THERE ANY PRACTICAL RESULTS FROM THE SEARCH?

Not directly. But the massive scientific effort that led up to the discovery has paid off in other ways, one of which was the creation of the World Wide Web. CERN scientists developed it to make it easier to exchange information among each other. The vast computing power needed to crunch all of the data produced by the atom smasher has also boosted the development of distributed or cloud computing, which is now making its way into mainstream services. Advances in solar energy capture, medical imaging and proton therapy used in the fight against cancer have also resulted from the work of particle physicists at CERN and elsewhere.

WHAT'S NEXT

"This is just the beginning," says James Gillies, a spokesman for CERN. Scientists will keep probing the new particle until they fully understand how it works. In doing so they hope to understand the 96 percent of the universe that remains hidden from view. This may result in the discovery of new particles and even hitherto unknown forces of nature.

“We have now found the missing cornerstone of particle physics,” Rolf Heuer, Director of the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN), told scientists amid cheers and standing ovation. “As a layman, I think we did it,” he said. “We’ve a discovery. We’ve observed a new particle that is consistent with a Higgs boson.”

The Higgs boson, which until now was a theoretical particle, is seen as the key to understanding why matter has mass. It is mass that combines with gravity to give an object weight. The idea is much like gravity and Isaac Newton’s discovery of it. Gravity existed even before Newton explained it. But now scientists see something much like the Higgs boson and can put that knowledge to further use.

CERN’s atom smasher, the $10-billion Large Hadron Collider on the Swiss-French border, has for years been creating high-energy collisions of protons to investigate dark matter, antimatter and the creation of the universe, which many theorise occurred in a massive explosion known as the Big Bang.

Two independent teams at CERN said they had both “observed” a new subatomic particle, a boson. Dr. Heuer called it “most probably a Higgs boson, but we have to find out what kind of Higgs boson it is.”

Asked whether the find is a discovery, he answered: “As a layman, I think we have it. But as a scientist, I have to say, “’What do we have?’”

The leaders of the two CERN teams, Joe Incandela, head of CMS with 2,100 scientists, and Fabiola Gianotti, head of ATLAS with 3,000 scientists, each presented in complicated scientific terms what was essentially extremely strong evidence of a new particle.

Dr. Incandela said it was too soon to say definitively whether what has been discovered is indeed the “standard model” Higgs that Scottish physicist Peter Higgs and others predicted in the 1960s. They did that as part of a standard model theory of physics involving an energy field where particles interact with a key particle, the Higgs boson. “The” Higgs or “a” Higgs that was the question on Wednesday. “It is consistent with a Higgs boson as is needed for the standard model,” Dr. Heuer said. “We can only call it a Higgs boson, not the Higgs boson.”

“It is an incredible thing that it has happened in my lifetime,” he said, calling it a huge achievement for the proton-smashing collider built in a 27-km tunnel.

The stunning work elicited standing ovations and frequent applause at a packed auditorium in CERN as Dr. Gianotti and Dr. Incandela each took their turn. Dr. Incandela called it “a Higgs-like particle,” and said “we know it must be a boson and it’s the heaviest boson ever found.”

“Thanks, nature!” Dr. Gianotti said to laughs, giving credit for the discovery. Later, she said that “the standard model [of physics] is not complete,” but that “the dream is to find an ultimate theory that explains everything we are far from that.”

The phrase “God particle” was coined by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Leon Lederman but is used by laymen, not physicists, as an easier way to explain how the subatomic universe works and got started.

Dr. Incandela said the last undiscovered piece of the standard model could be a variant of the Higgs that was predicted, or something else that entirely changes the way scientists think of how matter is formed. “This boson is a very profound thing we’ve found,” he said. “We’re reaching into the fabric of the universe in a way we never have done before. We’ve kind of completed one particle’s story... now, we’re way out on the edge of exploration.”

God particle: The big five questions
http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/news-by-industry/et-cetera/god-particle-the-big-five-questions/articleshow/14685428.cms

The universe is made of 12 fundamental particles and 4 fundamental forces. This is called the Standard Model of Physics. One more particle was predicted by Higgs, Brout and Englert in 1964. It explained the most important property of all matter - mass, and was called the Higgs boson (bosons are force-carrying particles named after Satyen Bose). The Higgs boson was confirmed on Wednesday, half a century after the search began.

2. HOW DID HIGGS BOSON GET TO BE CALLED THE 'GOD PARTICLE'?

Nobel winning physicist Leon Lederman unwittingly coined it. He wanted to refer to the Higgs boson as the 'goddamn particle' but his editor didn't allow that. Higgs has distanced himself from the name saying: "I find it embarrassing. Although I'm not a believer, it is the kind of misuse of terminology that may offend some".

3. HOW DID THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER (LHC) FIND IT?

Higgs boson is supposed to have originated a trillionth of a second after the Big Bang created the universe. Scientists tried to recreate the same conditions presumed to have existed then by making very high-speed protons collide with each other inside the LHC. Tracking millions of collisions occurring in seconds, they identified traces of a never-before-seen particle. Its mass is in the same range as predicted by theory: it is almost certain this is the Higgs boson.

4. WHY CAN'T SCIENTISTS CONFIRM THE DISCOVERY WITH CERTAINTY?

They are being rigorous - as scientists should be. They say on one count they've found a particle that fits the predicted Higgs boson range of mass. But they have yet to completely identify its other properties. They've to explain all current observations, including the slightly higher than expected energy and absence of some other particles. That will take time. However, for all practical purposes, it is the Higgs boson.

5. SO, WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR SCIENCE?

The discovery confirms the Standard Model theory is valid. Other particles predicted by this theory have been confirmed, but the missing Higgs boson was a glaring hole. Now that's closed. But there are other aspects of sub-atomic physics and of the cosmos that are unexplained, like dark matter (which makes up 25 per cent of the matter in the universe but has never been seen), dark energy (which makes up 70 per cent of matter in the universe but also has never been located), antimatter, supersymmetry (a theory that for every particle there is a heavier twin), etc. With the Higgs boson found, scientists can look at these aspects with more surety. Also, the most well-known force in the universe - gravitation -is still not fully explained. Such issues are still to be cleared.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


In the Standard Model of particle physics, the Higgs boson is a hypothetical elementary particle, a boson, that is the quantum of the Higgs field. The field and the particle provide a testable hypothesis for the origin of mass in elementary particles. In popular culture, the Higgs boson is also called the God particle, a name disliked by many scientists,[4] after the title of Nobel physicist Leon Lederman’s The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question? (1993), which contained the author’s assertion that the discovery of the particle is crucial to a final understanding of the structure of matter.
The existence of the Higgs boson was predicted in 1964 to explain the Higgs mechanism—the mechanism by which elementary particles are given mass.[Note 2] While the Higgs mechanism is considered confirmed to exist, the boson itself—a cornerstone of the leading theory—had not been observed and its existence was unconfirmed. Its tentative discovery in July of 2012 may validate the Standard Model as essentially correct, as it is the final elementary particle predicted and required by the Standard Model which has not yet been observed via particle physics experiments.[5] Alternative sources of the Higgs mechanism that do not need the Higgs boson also are possible and would be considered if the existence of the Higgs boson were to be ruled out. They are known as Higgsless models.
The Higgs boson is named after Peter Higgs, who was one of six authors in the 1960s who wrote the ground-breaking papers covering what is now known as the Higgs mechanism and described the related Higgs field and boson. Technically, it is the quantum excitation of the Higgs field, and the non-zero value of the ground state of this field gives mass to the other elementary particles such as quarks and electrons through the Higgs mechanism. The Standard Model completely fixes the properties of the Higgs boson, except for its mass. It is expected to have no spin and no electric or color charge, and it interacts with other particles through the weak interaction and Yukawa-type interactions between the various fermions and the Higgs field.
Because the Higgs boson is a very massive particle and decays almost immediately when created, only a very high energy particle accelerator can observe and record it. Experiments to confirm and determine the nature of the Higgs boson using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN began in early 2010, and were performed at Fermilab's Tevatron until its close in late 2011. Mathematical consistency of the Standard Model requires that any mechanism capable of generating the masses of elementary particles become visible at energies above 1.4 TeV;[6] therefore, the LHC (designed to collide two 7 TeV proton beams, but currently running at 4 TeV each) was built to answer the question of whether or not the Higgs boson exists.[7]
On 4 July 2012, the two main experiments at the LHC (ATLAS and CMS) both reported independently the confirmed existence of a previously unknown particle with a mass of about 125 GeV/c2 (about 133 proton masses, on the order of 10−25 kg), which is "consistent with the Higgs boson" and widely believed to be the Higgs boson. They acknowledged that further work would be needed to confirm that it is indeed the Higgs boson and not some other previously unknown particle (meaning that it has the theoretically predicted properties of the Higgs boson) and, if so, to determine which version of the Standard Model it best supports.[1][2][3][8][9]
