Scientific sources through CERN, predicted this weekend that on Tuesday, it is very likely that we will have some of the first strong signs of the existence of the particle of God…
They warned, however, that there would be no complete announcement in the event of the particle being located, but just announcing such an event is enough to characterize it as more than important, as it is believed to be responsible for the formation of the universe before 13,7 , XNUMX billion years.
Two separate groups, using different detectors (ATLAS and CMS), have caused 350 trillion proton collisions this year, hoping to locate the boson among the "debris". So far, however, some signs have been identified that suggest the existence of particles that are very similar to the infamous particle.
Higgs is essentially a missing piece of the physics model puzzle, explaining how the universe is "stuck" together. So far, it is the only elementary particle predicted by the model and scientists have not been able to create, from atomic collisions.
CERN CEO Rolf Heuer recently said he did not believe the particle would be confirmed before October 2012. However, Professor John Ellis, former head of theoretical physics at CERN, told the BBC he expected to get a "first taste" of the particle of God this week.
The accuracy of the results has been ensured by two separate teams, each consisting of hundreds of researchers, who have been thrown into the search using different experiments.
A team of scientists from 169 universities are working on the ATLAS detector, which is 148 meters long and 82 meters high, and is the largest ever built. The other is the 13.000-ton CMS - or Compact Muon Solenoid - located 100 meters below the Earth.
