Did we discover a new force of nature? New results from CERN
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) sparked worldwide excitement in March as particle physicists reportedtantalizing evidencefor new physics – potentially a new force of nature. Now,our new result, yet to be peer-reviewed, from Cern’s gargantuan particle collider seems to be adding further support to the idea. Our current best theory of particles and forces is known as thestandard model, which describes everything we know about the physical stuff that makes up the world around us with unerring accuracy....
