Scientists to unveil Findings on God Particle Today

Hundreds of scientists have gathered at the CERN laboratory in Geneva for the most anticipated announcement on the hunt for the Higgs Boson or God Particle, which takes place today. 

Scientists said that the findings are the latest results of the search Higgs boson, which is a subatomic particle believed to be key to the formation of stars, planets and life after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago. 

The Higgs Boson or God Particle is the missing piece of the fundamental theory of physics known as the Standard Model, which describes the formation of the universe. 

Scientists believe that in the first billionth of a second after the Big Bang, the universe was a gigantic soup of particles racing around at the speed of light without any mass to speak of. It was through their interaction with the Higgs field that they gained mass and eventually formed the universe. 

The Higgs field is a theoretical and invisible energy field that pervades the whole cosmos. It is crucial for understanding how the universe was framed, but it remained theoretical. It is the last undiscovered piece of the standard model. 

The Standard Model is to physics what the theory of evolution is to biology. It describes 12 fundamental particles, governed by four basic forces. But the universe is a big place and the Standard Model only explains a small part of it. Scientists have spotted a gap between what we can see and what must be out there. That gap must be filled by something we don't fully understand, which they have dubbed 'dark matter'. 

Scientists say the existence of dark matter and dark energy suggests the Standard Model, if validated by a Higgs discovery, is just the first layer of a more complex theory that includes the vast bulk of the universe that is now poorly understood.

The much-awaited announcement can be described as "40 years of research have reached a climax".

However, a video on the findings was leaked on the website of CERN on Tuesday night announcing a "new particle" had been observed. The CERN made it clear that the video was released due to technical glitch. The final results have not been released. It will be announced at 2:30 pm on Wednesday.
