RE: Today I learned about the Madala boson - a fake particle physics discovery most particle physicists were fortunately not aware of
Is this that one weird peak I was talking to you about a few months back from the higgs boson experimental data?
Nope. The 270 GeV stuff I discuss here is only related to run I data (at a lower collision energy of 7-8 TeV). In contrast, the infamous 750 GeV boson (that triggered at least 400 theory papers) appeared in the run II data at a collision energy of 13 TeV. These are disconnected.
The 750 GeV one was really featuring a resonant behavior, i.e., one produces a heavy state at the LHC that then decays. The 270 GeV is only coming from statistics (it is the best fit point and nothing more).
