Of course i don't believe that, just wanted to know if anyone else read or heard such news.

'God particle' announcement expected
Last updated 18:49 04/07/2012
Scientists are expected to make an announcement on the existence of the so-called "God particle" after video was leaked showing a spokesman from an experiment centre saying a new particle had been observed.
Joe Incandela, a spokesman for the European Organisation for Nuclear Research or CERN, says in the recording: "We have observed a new particle.''
"We have quite strong evidence that there's something,'' Mr Incandela says.
Physicists from the experiment centre are playing down the video, saying it was one of many prepared ahead of the historic announcement today.
At 8pm (NZ time) today, simultaneous announcements will be made in Melbourne and Geneva settling the question of whether the theorised Higgs boson - or "God particle'' - does exist.
Two heads of one of the experiment stations at the Large Hadron Collider, where the experiments are taking place, said videos for all outcomes of the experiment were prepared.
"Two videos, a set, were prepared,'' CMS experiment deputy physics co-ordinator Luca Malgeri said.
"It's an interview, but it is one of many videos.
"You want to be prepared in all occasions.''
Physics co-ordinator of the CMS experiment Greg Landsberg said the past few days had been hectic for scientists working on the experiment as they tried to finalise the results for the seminar.
He said people would have to wait until 6pm to learn if the particle had been found.
Professor Malgeri denied the recording was leaked, saying the video was accidentally made public during the editing process.
There are three possible outcomes to the 30-year search for the Higgs boson, a theoretical particle that is key to the scientific understanding of all matter.
The first is that its existence has been proved.
The second is that the researchers have found something previously unthought of.
The third is they are able to rule out the existence of the Higgs boson all together.
In the leaked recording, Mr Incandela says it will still take some time to ascertain the properties of what had been observed.
"Obviously all of this is extremely preliminary,'' he says.
WHAT IS THE HIGGS BOSON?
The Higgs is the last missing piece of the Standard Model, the theory that describes the basic building blocks of the universe. The other 11 particles predicted by the model have been found and finding the Higgs would validate the model.
Ruling it out or finding something more exotic would force a rethink on how the universe is put together.
Scientists believe that in the first billionth of a second after the Big Bang, the universe was a gigantic soup of particles racing around at the speed of light without any mass to speak of. It was through their interaction with the Higgs field that they gained mass and eventually formed the universe.
The Higgs field is a theoretical and invisible energy field that pervades the whole cosmos. Some particles, like the photons that make up light, are not affected by it and therefore have no mass. Others are not so lucky and find it drags on them as porridge drags on a spoon.
Picture George Clooney (the particle) walking down a street with a gaggle of photographers (the Higgs field) clustered around him. An average guy on the same street (a photon) gets no attention from the paparazzi and gets on with his day. The Higgs particle is the signature of the field _ an eyelash of one of the photographers.
The particle is theoretical, first posited in 1964 by six physicists, including Briton Peter Higgs.
The search for it only began in earnest in the 1980s, first in Fermilab's now mothballed Tevatron particle collider near Chicago and later in a similar machine at CERN, but most intensively since 2010 with the start-up of the European centre's Large Hadron Collider.

They're trying to catch the bull by the tail! Where is the proof that the universe started with a Big Bang? This is just a theory to fit mathematical equations!

Because observable universe seems to be in a constant expansion, it is easy to preposition that the farther back in time you will go the denser universe will be until the point of immense density, so it presumed that outburst of all the matter wasn't a sloth crawl in a park but more like an explosion, oh and the evidence? well how about cosmic background radiation?

God Particle meaning the particle that is raping all the other particles?

You think scientists do not know what they are doing?
If they knew then what is the point of doing whatever they are doing? scientist doing whatever they are doing because they don't know! ignorance is the driving force behind curiosity.

This will be an amazing 21st century accomplishment if it turns out to really be the higgs particle they're looking for.

No, that was anti-matter.
This experiment was done to validate the theoretical knowledge they had in this field, so they obviously know that they are doing. Sometimes the obtained result doesn't match the theoretical data's.

Excitement in physics world as 'particle consistent with Higgs boson' is found
By: Keith Campbell
4th July 2012
Scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (better known by its French acronym CERN) announced on Wednesday that they have observed a new subatomic particle consistent with a Higgs boson. However, it is not yet clear what kind of Higgs boson has been found.
The experimental results have a significance level of five-sigma, meaning they are regarded as discoveries. (A one-sigma result could simply be a random fluctuation in the data while a three-sigma result counts as an observation.)
The Higgs boson was postulated as a means of providing mass to other subatomic particles, but until now it has not been detected experimentally. It cannot be detected directly, but must be identified indirectly, from detecting the predicted combinations of different particles it decays into.
CERN operates the giant Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator located about 100 m underground on the Franco-Swiss border. Scientists from two of the LHC experiments, the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) and Atlas, made presentations at a seminar at CERN which was webcast live.
The first presentation was made by CMS scientist and spokesperson Joe Incandela, professor of physics at the University of California Santa Barbara, who stressed that the CMS collaboration involved 3 300 scientists around the world.
“We have observed a new boson at 125.3±0.6 GeV,” he announced. (GeV means giga-electron volt; although this is a measure of energy, because of Einstein’s famous equation E=mc2, where E stands for energy, m for mass and c fof the sped of light in a vacuum, GeVs are used to express the mass of elementary particles.)
The second presentation was by Dr Fabiola Gianotti, senior research physicist at CERN and spokesperson for the Atlas experiment. She highlighted that the data from Atlas was processed at 80 sites around the world, often by young researchers.
The Atlas results established, with a confidence level of 95%, that the Higgs could not be in the mass ranges of 110 GeV to 122.6 GeV and 129.7 GeV to 558 GeV. “The best-fit [Higgs] signal strengths, normalised to the Standard Model expectations, for all studied [decay] channels [was] at mass equalling 126.5 GeV,” she stated.
“It was a global effort, it is a global effort, it is a global success,” enthused CERN Director General Prof. Rolf Heuer.

Humans are far behind from knowing the truth of universe.... We all works on frequency and the frequency control is in cosmos energy's hand.... Humanoids and reptilians knows the secret to control humans by frequency.... Humanoids always use pure love frequency which is 528 Hz.... Read more to know the truth....
