Where the standard model predicts that the Higgs bosun would occur, they have in fact proven that there is A bosun that occurs there. Which means it probably is the Higgs bosun, but that they need more data. And applause because - very clear, unambiguous data presented in graphs spiking which shows yes, there's something there. And it would appear to be exactly what they are looking for. | ||

You misunderstand--the big bang is not a creation of mass, but rather an expansion of what we call the "universe" from an infinite dense, hot singularity. | ||

And it would appear to be exactly what they are looking for. Exactly. They predicted something to be there. They found something where they were looking. They found it using methods that would only work if it was such a particle. There will still be more work to prove that it does EVERYTHING that it's supposed to but for now, I think we're all going to call it the Higgs. | ||

There is other evidence for the big bang, like the one you were linked to | ||

The conditions surrounding the big bang far exceed the range in which the standard model (= the theory of elemetary particles, including the Higgs boson) can make predictions. At the energy levels present in the big bang, distinctions between elementary forces of nature start to fade away. | ||

How the fuck are they going to split the Nobel prize between Higgs, Englert, Brout, Guralnik, Hagen, and Kibble when you can only have 3 people named for a nobel Prize? Someone is going to be sad. Like really really sad. | ||

mass of Higgs boson ~ 126.5 GeV at the 5 sigma level. | ||

So, in very simple language. ATLAS and CMS have independently discovered a new particle mass ~ 126 GeV which behaves like SM Higgs | ||
