The Higgs has been theorized for years, but never found. Humanity's best
hope of discovering the particle lies in the humongous atom smasher buried
underneath Switzerland and France called the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
There, physicists collide protons head-on to create explosions that give
rise to new, exotic particles, including, maybe, the Higgs.
LHC researchers plan to share their latest findings at the International
Conference on High Energy Physics (ICHEP) in Melbourne, Australia, from July
4-11. |
