The entire scientific world was beside
itself when CERN, the European
Organization for Nuclear Research,
announced the discovery of a new particle
last year. The Higgs boson received a lot
of praise, and it was postulated that it is because of it that other fundamental
particles have mass. However, researchers now claim that the
particle discovered then may have not
been the Higgs boson. Although
calculations indicate that the particle
discovered last year in the CERN
accelerator was a never-before-seen particle, an international research team
claims that the evidence is nowhere near
conclusive enough to prove that it was
indeed the Higgs particle. Heaps of existing scientific data was
scrutinized by the team of researchers,
which published their results in the
journal Physical Review. Mads Toudal Frandsen is an associate
professor at the Center for Cosmology and
Particle Physics Phenomenology at the
University of Southern Denmark. He is one
of the team’s members and believes that
the data collected at the CERN accelerator could have been obtained from several
other particles.......
