YOU can’t hide for much longer, Higgs. A deluge of data from the Large Hadron Collider has ruled out a slew of possible masses for the still theoretical Higgs particle.
“We are definitely approaching the endgame in looking for the Higgs,” says James Gillies, spokesman for CERN near Geneva, Switzerland, where the LHC is based. Data released from the LHC’s ATLAS and CMS detectors have now ruled out, with 95 per cent confidence, all masses for the elusive Higgs between 145 and 466 gigaelectronvolts (GeV).
“A deluge of new data means we are definitely approaching the endgame in looking for the Higgs”…
