Anti-protons, Dark Matter and Helium
First post of “Postcards from the Energy Frontier” at the Cosmic Shambles Network. A new measurement at CERN tells us something about the way particles travel through interstellar space. Which in turn may help a satellite on the International Space … Continue reading

ATLAS and CMS results on Higgs decay to bottom quarks
This morning two results appeared on the arXiv: Observation of H→b anti-b decays and VH production with the ATLAS detector (from the ATLAS Collaboration) Observation of Higgs boson decay to bottom quarks (from the CMS Collaboration)
Two quarks for Muster Higgs
Since the big discovery of 2012, the Large Hadron Collider at CERN has been accumulating data and making steady progress. Two recent results establish the origins of the mass of the two heaviest quarks At the Guardian.
How much mass does the W boson have?
And why it matters Whenever I describe the fundamental forces to an audience that does not entirely consist of other particle physicists (happens more often that you might think), it is the weak force that causes trouble. Electromagnetism holds atoms … Continue reading
