Evidence Of Particle:celebration For Physicists

Recommended Posts

As a matter of great achievement, scientists have unveiled the mystery surrounding the much wondered about Higgs boson or widely known as "God Particle"---the explanation for the fact that all matter has mass.
The search supposedly began in the 1960's and has continued to haunt physicists who dedicated their time for research about the beginning of the universe and the settings of all its elements.
There was a roar of happiness accompanied with a burst of emotions at the European Center for Nuclear Research or CERN.
Reportedly, the new particle seems to possess a number of similarities with what physicists from Scotland,Peter Higgs.
This finding was restricted to a theory which could analyze the reason behind matter having mass.

The center's atom smasher,the $10 billion Large Hadron Collider,sends protons whizzing around a circular 27-kilometer (17-mile) underground tunnel at nearly the speed of light to create high-energy collisions.The aftermath of those impacts, can offer clues about dark matter,antimatter and the creation of the universe,which many theorize occurred in a massive explosion known as the Big Bang.

As a result of the collisions, the particles are produced, but do not exist more than fractions of a second.After continuous efforts,only some dozens of collisions produced results with data that could be valuable.
However,an Italian physicist Fabiola Gianotti said that a long procedure was about to follow for the ultimate explanation of the phenomena as a whole.
Nobel Prize winner, physicist Leon Lederman tossed the term "God Particle" for the boson which later came to be used in common discussions.
Scientists are estimating that this finding would lead to revolutionary progress in scientific analysis for the decoding of the universe's start and existence through a single particle.
