"It 'boson:" This new Higgs particles.
GENEVA (Reuters) - Scientists at the CERN research center in Europe have found particles of subatomic new building block foundation of the universe, which seems to be a Higgs and a half centuries ago by a theoretical physicist Higgs year. Peter.
"We've reached a milestone in our understanding of nature," CERN Director General Rolf Heuer said in a meeting of scientists and the media around the world, near Geneva on Wednesday
"The discovery of the Higgs boson particle, which opened the way for a more detailed study of the statistical properties of the large particles and is likely to shed light on the mysteries of the universe, the other of us".
Two independent studies of its sharing of the particles produced by protons at the CERN Large Hadron Collider has produced near the turn of the existence of new particles.
It is unclear what exactly is the Higgs boson mass of matter is expected by others to explain how it was ordered chaos of the universe after the Big Bang.
The CERN scientists gathered in the hall, Heuer they were, "As a layman, I would say that we think you'll agree with" a roar of applause that they have.
For some, no doubt, will find the Higgs boson: "and" Higgs boson ", Jim Al-Khalili University of Surrey, British physicist and spokesman, said the popular" published by CERN is very clear. richer and clearer than most of us expected.
"The Nobel Prize in around".
Hicks, now 83, from the University of Edinburgh is one of the theorists who proposed in 1960 the existence of a mechanism through which the material universe gained ground. Hicks has argued that if the field is not visible for the implementation of the particles.
He and the other people at CERN, has welcomed news of the embarrassment of many scientists that some commentators have called. "God particle" for his role in the Big Bang, the universe in order. She caught the eye of the island, Hicks told a meeting of researchers friend: "It 's amazing things that happened in my life.".
Scientists see a confirmation of his theory as to speed up the investigation does not explain the "dark matter" that pervades the universe and the possibility of four or more dimensions or parallel universes. It may help to resolve the conflict between the way it works in the subatomic world of them, and Einstein's theory of gravity.
End of the age.
"It 's very satisfied," he told Reuters Hicks. "For me it is just a confirmation of something I did 48 years ago," said the academic achievement of thousands of people who worked on the operation and was confirmed in the end. What he and others have described with mathematics.
"I did not expect that I'm still alive when it happened," the speed with which they have found evidence that.
"In physics, one end of the era that it has completed the standard" basic physical theory is currently in use to describe what they understand that the universe is made of particles 12 and the four fundamental forces.
CERN Large Hadron Collider particle accelerator is the largest and most powerful in the world. Two beams of protons will be fired in opposite directions around a 27 km (17 mile) pipeline built under the Swiss-French border, before crashing into each other.
The collision, which mimics the time after the Big Bang, throwing out the collected debris from a vast array of detectors and will be reviewed by a bank of computers.
Two teams from CERN to work freely through information, looking for small differences that might betray the existence of the Higgs particle of the photon and the light. Class is named in honor of Albert Einstein's work in India Satyendra Nath Bose.
Both teams were strong signs of new particles at around 125-126 volts gigaelectron (GeV) a unit of mass energy. 130-140, which are heavier than protons.
The struggle of scientists to explain the theory of particles, the Higgs will be compared to a crowd of photographers, Paparazzi and more "celebrities" of particles that are bosons Hicks gets in his way and slow down. But the mass of the particles such as photons of light to the attention of the Paparazzi and passed easily - the photon has no mass.
Joe Incandela presented at CERN, there are two peaks in the graph of debris hitting the detector, which he said revealed the presence of the mystery novels of the particles. "This is what we will determine if the Higgs," said the scientists at CERN.
At least one in a million.
"It 'boson!" The Science and Technology Council of Great Britain in the statement about the role that researchers play in the delivery of the "five theater signal Sigma" for the existence of long-sought particle.
Five Sigma, a measure of the probability that fewer than one in a million chance of a fluke in the data, a widely accepted standard for scientists to agree on the existing particles.
"The fact that both teams have the freedom to give the same results can be very effective," Oliver Buchmueller, advanced physics research group, told Reuters.
"We know it's a new boson. But we can not definitively prove that the Higgs is expected that".
"If I were a betting man I would bet that the Higgs boson. But we can not definitely say that again. This is a lot of smoke and quacks like a duck to a Higgs boson. But now we must be open and Look inside before you can say it's a real Higgs boson. ".
Al-Khalili will be a lot of research: "Cut through all the jargon and love the decay, the bottom line is that CERN had discovered Higgs boson", he said, "In my opinion, it seems that the Higgs boson and breathes. Weather is what we expect from the Higgs and Higgs boson. ".
Universal theory.
Higgs particle theory explains how planets, including models of the universe and life itself, the Higgs boson is still formless soup of particles, even around at the speed of light, the theory goes.
The final piece to find a standard that describes the basic makeup of the universe. Evolution is a theory of physical goods as a biologist.
What scientists do not yet know is that recent discoveries have found that particles of the Higgs boson is described that is jam-packed in accordance with the Standard Model. It may be a variable or a new subatomic particle, the Higgs will be forced to review the basic structure of matter.
Two possibilities in terms of science, even more exciting.
The number of people that particle physicists, students and journalists, politicians and even a full meeting in Geneva, London and at the physics meeting in Melbourne, Australia to hear the announcement.
Despite the excitement of the physicians felt that it still has a lot to learn. "We have closed one chapter and opening another," said Peter Knight of the Institute of Physics of Great Britain said.
Paul Nurse, president of the British Academy of Sciences Royal Society said: "This is a great day for science and for the fulfillment of man ... Today, we move one step closer to a fuller understanding of the material. at The universe was created ".
Hicks himself as a great achievement for the CERN Collider had no idea he was still just a paper theory and admitted that he had not been cut for laboratory testing: "Of course I work in the laboratory. As a student in Bristol, "he told Reuters." I am incompetent "
