Higgs Is On The Run

But it can't hide!*

The very last of the experiments done at the Tevatron in Illinois are finally being analyzed and are coming tatalizingly close to unmasking the last of the great subatomic particles.  The hiding places are now down to a narrow spectrum of weights (remember a GeV, although a voltage is also a mass because E=mc(squared)), 115 to 135 GeV.  It's only a matter of time now.  Poor bastard doesn't have a chance...

The world is changing.

Here's 10 weird stories about the Higg's Boson.

*Thank you to my myriad of Physics junkie friends for all of the links. You know who you are.
