BaalChatzaf Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Please have a look at this: http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/72095/title/Remodeling_the_standard_modelPerhaps a new Boson will be discovered by the LHC this year. If found and verified we have yet another Force in nature.Ba'al Chatzaf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others tried their procedure exactly as described and got negative results.Stuff you find on Fox are not scientific publications. Go to the journals.

Go to the journals. “The God Particle”“I would compare it to the discovery of electricity”Read on, and it starts looking like a scientist trying to get attention, and maybe save their funding. Doesn’t remind you of the cold fusion episode? Going to the popular press instead of / before publishing in a peer reviewed journal? Oh well, I guess my nose might be having an off-day.

Oh well, I guess my nose might be having an off-day.When a scientist goes to the mass-media instead of a refereed journal or does not post a short article to Phys Revs (or like journal) my bullshit alarm starts to ring. The proper place to post new ideas, hypotheses and results are in the profession journals or get an endorsement for posting to archiV.
