Searching for the Higgs Particle
April 26, 2012
In anticipation of the potential for experimental verification of the existence of the Higgs boson?a long-hypothesized particle thought responsible for endowing other elementary particles with mass?the World Leaders Forum hosted a special program, co-sponsored by the Columbia Science Initiative, on April 18 at 4:00 p.m. in the Low Library rotunda. more; http://news.columbia.edu/higgs http://youtu.be/pt8oRWNSwAk http://youtu.be/C0rBKyU1vu0
Conflicting Higgs results muddy particle hunt
March 7, 2012
The plot is thickening for the still-hidden Higgs boson. Two US-based experiments report new, hopeful hints of the slippery particle, but one of the two main detectors at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) says an existing signal has started to fade away. The announcements, all made today at the Recontres de Moriondmeeting in La Thuile, Italy,… [Read more…]
Tevatron collider’s mighty boost for Higgs hunt
March 6, 2012
by Lisa Grossman The Tevatron may now be defunct, but it is still detangling the nature of matter from beyond the grave. The late particle-smasher’s two main experiments, CDF and DZero, have released the most precise measurement yet of the mass of the W boson, one of the fundamental particles in the standard model of… [Read more…]

LHC energy boost will aid hunt for Higgs boson
February 14, 2012
Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will increase the energies of the bunches of subatomic particles called protons that it smashes together. The boost should improve the collider’s chances of discovering “new physics” and definitively confirming or denying the existence of Higgs boson particle. The proton beams’ energies will be increased by 14%, for… [Read more…]
What the latest LHC revelations say about the Higgs
February 9, 2012
In December 2011, the elusive Higgs boson was back in the limelight when hints of the particle emerged in the wreckage of proton collisions at the world’s most powerful particle smasher – the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland. There have been no new collisions since, but researchers from the LHC’s two main detectors… [Read more…]
A Historical Profile of the Higgs Boson
January 31, 2012
John Ellis, Mary K. Gaillard, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos The Higgs boson was postulated in 1964, and phenomenological studies of its possible production and decays started in the early 1970s, followed by studies of its possible production in e+ e-, pbar p and pp collisions, in particular. Until recently, the most sensitive searches for the Higgs… [Read more…]

What Higgs result means for dark matter conspiracy
December 21, 2011
RECENT hints of a featherweight Higgs boson don’t just take us nearer to a complete standard model of physics. The results affect a possible link between the Higgs and dark matter, the invisible stuff making up 80 per cent of the universe’s matter. The Higgs is the last remaining hole in the standard model, the… [Read more…]
Update on the Standard Model Higgs searches in ATLAS and CMS
December 13, 2011
The main conclusion is that the Standard Model Higgs boson, if it exists, is most likely to have a mass constrained to the range 115.5-131 GeV by the ATLAS experiment, and 115-127 GeV by CMS 13 December 2011. In a seminar held at CERN today, the ATLAS and CMS experiments presented the status of their… [Read more…]

The 327 GeV ZZ Anomaly
October 14, 2011
Higgs boson hunters often catch themselves dreaming of the boson having a mass high enough to give rise to the spectacular decay into two Z bosons, and then four charged leptons in the final state.
