Science and religion have often created explosive outcomes. But now particle physicists are hoping to get a glimpse of what they call the God particle when a new large particle accelerator starts smashing atoms in the next few months.
Some fear Earth-swallowing black holes being created while scientists are gearing up for what could be the biggest data collection event in history.
[...] For physicists the search for the elusive subatomic particle that gives all things mass is tantamount to the search for the Holy Grail. That’s one reason why scientists call the much-theorized but never seen Higgs Boson the God particle. [...]
[...] first evidence of the Higgs Boson, a particle that may or may not exist. It is also known as the God particle because the Higgs if it does exist could explain three of the four forces of nature that account [...]
[...] learning more about particle physics than ever before. They are even close to capturing the elusive Higgs boson, also known as the God [...]
