An international research team involving the University of Colorado Boulder announced Wednesday morning, July 4th that it has found the first direct evidence for a new particle that likely is the long sought-after Higgs boson, believed to endow the universe with mass.
The 抖阴旅行射-Boulder high-energy physics team, which includes 15 faculty and students, is involved with the Compact Muon Solenoid, or CMS, one of two massive particle detectors in the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The 抖阴旅行射 team helped design and build the CMS forward pixel detectors -- the 鈥渆yes鈥� of the device -- that help researchers measure the direction and momentum of subatomic particles following collisions, providing clues to their origin and structure.
