Physicists say they have found a Higgs boson GENEVA – The search
is all but over for a subatomic particle that is a crucial
building block of the universe. Physicists announced Thursday
they believe they have discovered the subatomic particle
predicted nearly a half-century ago, which will go a long way
toward explaining what gives electrons and all matter in the
universe size and shape. The elusive particle, called a Higgs
boson, was predicted in 1964 to help fill in our understanding
of the creation of the universe, which many theorize occurred in
a massive explosion known as the Big Bang. The particle was
named for Peter Higgs, one of the physicists who proposed its
existence, but it later became popularly known as the "God
particle." If you have any technical difficulties, either with
