LHC energy boost will aid hunt for Higgs boson
Physicists at Fermilab are promising a March verdict on their efforts to prove the existence of a subatomic fleck of matter known as the Higgs boson. It is popularly described in the media as the God Particle, and privately referred to by many

The move appeared to quash any hopes that Fermilab had of discovering the Higgs boson, the last great known unknown of modern particle physics. Yet according to Rob Roser, the leader of the CDF experiment at the Tevatron, we shouldn't count Fermilab
Beate Heinemann presents a public talk at UC Berkeley on January 21st, 2012, as part of the Science@Cal Lecture Series. She describes the LHC and its experiments, the relevance of the Higgs boson and the current state of
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 a total collision energy of 8 trillion
