If the significance can be explained in layperson’s terms, I’d sure like to have a go at understanding it.

Let me guess. You were born after 1958 or so.

The Tevatron, the huge particle accelerator at Fermi - the most powerful in the world after the LHC - is expected to be retired when the CERN accelerator becomes fully operational, but may have struck a final blow before it becomes obsolete. D'oh. Stupid irony!

The Higgs boson is the only Standard Model particle that has not been observed and is thought to be the mediator of mass. Experimental detection of the Higgs boson would help explain the origin of mass in the universe. The Higgs boson would explain the difference between the massless photon, which mediates electromagnetism, and the massive W and Z bosons, which mediate the weak force. If the Higgs boson exists, it is an integral and pervasive component of the material world

Thanks. I thought it was Jayne Mansfield but I wasn’t sure.

"Let me guess. You were born after 1958 or so." You guessed wrong. Before 1958.
