View this post on Hive: For the first time, the decay of a Higgs-Boson has been observed


A crypto project which sets stakes of its users to zero has nothing to do with the basic ideas of blockchains and cryptocurrencies.
It's a shame to run down such a project and let it go to waste in that way.
As funds on STEEM aren't safe anymore, I moved all over to HIVE.

Thanks for sharing this news. You may note that the original reference to it is this one and not those you cited (who took it from CERN directly).

Standard model of particle physics reconfirmed
The formation of Bottom-Quarks during Higgs-Boson decay largely corresponds to the predicted theoretical models. At the same time, the observations confirm the Yukawa coupling that gives mass to elementary particles such as quarks and leptons in a Higgs-Field.
With these new findings, the physicists have also further confirmed the standard model of particle physics.

This is unfortunately far from being true. There are still parameters of the Standard Model that are not accurately measured (or not measured at all), so that deviations are still possible. In short, the Standard Model is not confirmed at all at the moment.

Thank you very much for your comment @lemouth
Firstly, nice to see that you are back after your break.

Thank you very much for the link to the original, I have added it as a reference.

This is unfortunately far from being true...

That's a pity, since all the sources I've read through have written of a confirmation of the standard model. For my part, I would have liked that this is confirmed so far. But my sources, as well as I seem to have added something wishful thinking. I have changed the corresponding passages in the text.

Btw. It's nice to get some criticism, too. Thank you for that. :-)

Yeah, science news websites easily modify things (not necessarily on purpose). When some text is taken from one source that is taking it from another source and so on, this can happen.

To be more specific, the LHC will barely be able to get the order of magnitude of the Higgs trilinear self-coupling (an interaction of 3 Higgs bosons), and only after accounting for all data to be recorded for the next 20 years. There is also a quartic Higgs coupling (4 Higgs boson) for which a next machine should be built. The LHC will not be able to get it at all.

Thanks for adding the extra source that is the only relevant one in fact :)

Yes, that's right. It can happen so quickly. Or one interprets something slightly different into a statement.

Then there are many more discoveries waiting for us. The analysis of this data should then take quite some time.
I think I had already read something about a larger particle accelerator somewhere, but that was still music of the future.

You're welcome. If there's anything wrong, I'll be glad to correct it.

wow what a discovery! thanks for informing us about it, best regards to you :)
