Overbye on Hunting the Higgs

Dennis Overbye has an article in today’s New York Times on the search for the Higgs boson, and naturally, I’ve got complaints about it. It’s a pretty good piece: Overbye can do good work (he went a little overboard looking for journa…

dorigo,

I just found out that if traveling internationally, airlines will no longer let minors fly alone. I had to pay for extra plane tickets for my daughter to come home (to the US from EU) for summer as a result of this rule. Flying domestically in the US is easy though. Can’t say for EU at this point.

Ciao David,

By the way, let me know the next time you come at reach, in venice or padova… I seldom travel to lombardia, for some reason.

Cheers,

Hi anon,

yes, I have heard that too. I think it is some kind of resonance at about 180 GeVish, but maybe too narrow to fit in given the large cross section the observation would imply. I think they will make it public soon if it is anything serious, let’s keep our ears up…

If I hear more about it I will write about it.

Cheers,
T.

I am hearing lots of rumors that D0 has found something at about 4 sigma significance in a multi-b channel and will be announcing it soon. Do you know anything about this that could be blogged? If it’s true, I imagine CDF is rushing to check it?

Perhaps I’m hearing nonsense, but if not, I hope you’ll post about whatever excitement is coming up so the rest of us can enjoy it vicariously! All the best.

Dear Paolo Giromini,

(aka Deborah above), email frascati@fnal.gov, do I need to post you home address and phone number too to tell you this game has lasted too long ? If you really want to post anonymously, please learn how to do it.

Cheers,
T.

and…. what is the point for going to Paris.
Just another sniff of toluene, definitely
no need for you to be there. When is the last
time you had your cholesterol checked ?
