How exciting! They've discovered Hillary Clinton's soul!

Can't throw their weight around without Higgs' permission.

As usual, excellent post. I'm wondering if the 'apiring' of this particle with Higgs Boson will occur at higher energies. Perhaps we could ask that gorgeous Lady Physicist with the recent pop-physics book?

Yeah. Whadda bitch. Maybe we'll see a rebel or two emerge before long.

Spelling is sometimes the most interesting property of my posts.

Well then what good is the stupid thing? It's the Cindy Sheehan of particles.

I've known that the axion is the particle that makes cold fusion possible for years.

I thought that was called unobtanium.

My goof. You're correct. I suppose axion exists for such a small time span it could be called temptanium.

Do they have a BMI number? Then we'll know if it is obese or not.

Wow. It is quicker than a femtosecond? I can't imagine recording something like that. It is like super-ephemeral indeed.

Any physicist worth his salt wouldn't give a tinker's damn about spelling.

That should clean up QCD.
