    Interesting times. They've been looking for the Higgs Boson as long as Fat Sam has been an annoyingly pug ugly specimen of human obesity.

    In a nutshell though the conclusion is that indeed, a mackem has never been seen in Milan.

    "A confirmation that this is the Higgs boson would be one of the biggest scientific discoveries of the century; the hunt for the Higgs has been compared by some physicists to the Apollo programme that reached the Moon in the 1960s.

    Scientists will have to look at how the Higgs decays - or transforms - into other, more stable particles after being produced in collisions at the LHC.

    Dr Pippa Wells, a member of the Atlas experiment, said that several of the decay paths already showed deviations from what one would expect of the Standard Model Higgs.

    For example, a decay path where the Higgs transforms into two photon particles was "a bit on the high side", she explained.

    These could get back into line as more statistics are added, but on the other hand, they may not.

    "We're reaching into the fabric of the Universe at a level we've never done before," said Prof Incandela.

    "We're on the frontier now, on the edge of a new exploration. This could be the only part of the story that's left, or we could open a whole new realm of discovery."


    A breakthrough from years of scientific research which has been beautifully summed up by the The Sun Newspaper headline as:

    SCIENTISTS FINALLY PROVE THAT MACKEMS ARE INBRED!

    If anyone understands Higgs Boson, I would expect it to be you oh Wise One!

    If it is not the Higgs particle, dibbs on being called "The JPF Particle".

    i'm really excited by the higgs boson particle

    in fact i've got a real hadron
