Doubt is not the 'seed of God'

Three scientists, Ian Low, Joseph Lykken and Cornell University's Gabe Shaughnessy, have expressed doubts about what CERN really found inside the LHC.

Last week, scientists scrambled to find that the signals found inside the LHC proved the existence of a Higgs boson, or "seed of the gods ," ending a journey of search. gritty, widespread in the physical world for five decades.

However, just a week later, Cornell University scientists publicly expressed that they are not 'sure' that this is exactly the Higgs particle, reports DailyMail.

Cornell University says it is far from clear that CERN has found the Higgs.

'The new resonant signals detected by the ATLAS and CMS experiments inside the large particle accelerator LHC could be the Higgs boson particle described in the Standard Model , ' they wrote. Shortly thereafter, Lykken and Shaughnessy point out that it is far from being able to claim that this particle is the 'standard model' Higgs that scientists have been hunting for decades. 'An imposter's Higgs particle can still hold measurements consistent with the resonance signals observed by the LHC.'

Therefore, researchers recommend that physicists be cautious about approaching this finding, and the uncertainty 'is too great' to be able to make a positive statement in this case.

Scientists at CERN are also analyzing the data more closely to test whether their findings are consistent with the Higgs 'Standard Model' or not, more dangerous.

One of the reasons CERN is cautious is that the new particle, although behaving like the Higgs boson, is lighter than expected.

This opens the possibility of having more than one Higgs boson. And if that were so, then physicists would have to have a new understanding of dark matter - the mysterious material supposed to make up a quarter of the universe.
