British physicist says anti-gravity has a future…

Can anti-gravity be real? It’s about to get tested at CERN, as a group of physicists are testing antimatter as a way of generating anti-gravity. Time to break out the hoverboards!

The results are in: That is in fact a Higgs Boson that was discovered by CERN

After thorough re-examination, review and triple/quadruple checking of all the facts and figures, CERN has announced that the Higgs-like particle that was detected last year using the Large Hadron Collider is in fact a Higgs boson. There ya go. New pope, Higgs boson.

So there it is… physicists have discovered the Higgs boson

In a big announcement earlier this morning, scientists at CERN in Switzerland have announced that with 99.9999% certainty, they’ve found the once-elusive Higgs boson. This is a huge deal, not only because it’s one of the last pieces of the Standard Model puzzle, but the Higgs is theoretically what gives everything its mass. Without the Higgs, there could be no physical universe.

Leaked CERN video confirms discovery of new particle, may or may not be the Higgs

Recently, there’s been a lot of speculation that scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider may have actually found the Higgs boson. While such a finding would need much more testing to confirm, a leaked video from CERN confirms that they’ve found something new, but no one is yet calling it the Higgs.

It’s official: Neutrinos do not move faster than light

Last year, the science news world was abuzz over the idea that neutrinos could and do break the light speed barrier, but it wasn’t long before those results were heavily disputed. And now, after a number of checks, tests and review, it’s official. Neutrinos do not and can not move faster than light. It really was all just a glitch. Carry on.

CERN manager weighs the official CERN gnome. For precision.

Mike Stoor of the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) near Geneva, weighs a gnome in the Control Room of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) on April 5, 2012. A German precision scale maker sends the gnome to different scientific institutions to demonstrate that, due to gravity and the Earth not being a perfect sphere, its weight differs around the world. The gnome reportedly weighed 307.65 g (10.8520 oz), but failed to protest his captivity in the voice of U.K. comic legend Harry Enfield. Photo: REUTERS/Denis Balibouse
