It's the 8th July and,well,it could be the Higgs(ooh deja vu).Certain science journalists and science popularisers seem to be claiming that it is the Higgs whereas Cern is rightly being more cautious and amongst other things stating that more testing is needed.
Whatever the outcome it seems reasonably certain that a new particle has been detected.Physics theorists will now be able to pick up their pencils and try to figure out things in more detail due to them being armed with this new experimental data.In this regard I am going to publish here a series of physics snippets(one every now and then) that they need to consider when doing their sums and whatever else stuff they do.It's just a few little odds and ends that some of them may have overlooked in the past.
ps Why do certain scientists and science popularisers tend to present certain things as if they are absolute immutable truths.Said people need a major injection of skepticism mixed,perhaps,with a dash of crackpottery.Just rambling here,oh and make sure you read the bit below before you read this bit.
