RE: For the first time, the decay of a Higgs-Boson has been observed
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.
