Scientists at the world’s largest atom collider say they have discovered a subatomic particle that resembles an elusive unproven piece of the standard model of physics. Two independent teams working at the European Center for Nuclear Research said Wednesday they have observed a particle of the same type as the theoretical Higgs boson, which is […]

Anticipation Runs High Before Announcement on Elusive ‘Higgs Boson’
Posted July 3rd, 2012 at 3:30 pm (UTC-5)
European physicists are expected to make an announcement early Wednesday (0200 EST/0600 UTC) about their latest findings in the 50-year quest for an elusive particle that many scientists consider one of the fundamental components of the universe. The Higgs boson, sometimes referred to as the “God particle,” is a theoretical subatomic particle thought to form […]
Scientists: Particles Seen to Travel Faster Than Light
Posted September 22nd, 2011 at 5:55 pm (UTC-5)
Scientists have made a discovery that, if confirmed, could rewrite the laws of physics. An international group of researchers says it has measured a sub-atomic particle, called a neutrino, moving faster than the speed of light – something that was supposed to be impossible. A particle accelerator blasted a beam of neutrinos 730 kilometers from […]
