Are we close to discovering the Higgs Boson?
Today ATLAS and CMS will present, during two scientific conferences, their results with the complete set of data from 2011. ATLAS has also released a preprint, submitted to the Physical Review D, in which the experiment propose a measure for the Higgs mass: $m_H = 126GeV$ with a significance of $2.9 \sigma$ (like I wrote yesterday). There are not the numbers for a discover, but we are really close to the Higgs boson, like John Ellis explains in the following video:
You can follow the conference in webcast, on internet thanks to the live blogging from Sean Carroll, or following the hashtags on twitter: #Higgs #ICHEP2012 #CERN #LHC #LargeAdronCollider.
