• Resumen

  • Chalmers examines collisions within CERN's showpiece particle smasher, the Large Hadron Collider. The two "bumps" have appeared independently, in the same place, in the latest data from the LHC's two big detectors, ATLAS and CMS. They point to the existence of a particle that dwarfs even the Higgs boson, the giver-of-mass particle discovered at CERN in Jul 2012. The latest LHC bumps were spotted in collisions that produce two high-energy photons of light. Such collisions should generally produce fewer very energetic photons, purely because these take more energy to make.
