New ev­i­dence for the ex­ist­ence of the Higgs bos­on

We see a dis­tinct Higgs-like sig­na­ture that can­not be easily ex­plained with­out the pres­ence of some­thing new. If what we’re see­ing really is the Higgs bos­on, it will be a ma­jor mile­stone for the world phys­ics com­mun­ity and will place the key­stone in the most suc­cess­ful par­t­i­cle phys­ics the­o­ry in histo­ry.
