So this is how it is, m`kay. Smash this, m`kay, then smash that, m`kay. Drugs are bad, m`kay, dont do drugs, m`kay.

A Higgs Boson u say?

GEEZ!

Could have told me a bit earlier, i had 4 of them i had just sold in a garage sale.

Oh well, too bad my neighbor is not a particle physicist or this could have came in very handy indeed.

funny how he got the water molecules wrong.

has HO2 and not H2O on the diagram XD

@mph_ragnarok

Yeah, they shut down the accelerator over the christmas. Like they did with the LEP before it. There is some work being carried out replacing part of the cryostat system, but it was still sheduled to be offline until I think it was march anyway. So they have plenty of time to repair and retest it before they bring it up to full power.

Wow, I never knew water molecules looked like googly eyed puking bug heads!
Thank you particle physicist man!

He also got the neutrons wrong. The picture said uud, which is a proton (up quarks have a charge of +2/3; down quarks -1/3; sum = 2/3+2/3-1/3 = 1; the charge of a proton)
