CERN Announces a Particle Consistent With the Higgs Boson

CERN, 1, Route de Meyrin, Meyrin, Geneva, 1211, Switzerland

CERN

Starts 07/04/2012CONFIRMED88% CONFIDENCE

CERN's own press release is dated the day of the seminar, and Wikipedia's^[2] Higgs boson article repeats it throughout: "On 4 July 2012, the discovery of a new particle with a mass between 125 and 127 GeV/c2 was announced" and "On 4 July 2012 both of the CERN experiments announced they had independently made the same discovery".

At a seminar at CERN, the ATLAS and CMS experiments each report a new boson at around 125-126 GeV at five sigma, independently and from the same data-taking runs. It is the last unverified piece of the Standard Model.

A New Doubly Charmed Particle Has Just Been Discovered in CERN

CERN

07/07/2017 - 07/08/2017CONFIRMED85% CONFIDENCE

Happened as dated, per interestingengineering.com^[1]: "…HCb) collaboration at CERN, Switzerland announced their observation of a new particle with two charm…"

For many years, physicists have been aware of the existence of this doubly charmed particle because of current physical theories. However, nobody has been successful in observing the particle and it is only now that the baryon with two heavy quarks has been distinctively detected. Known as Ξcc++(Xicc++), this new particle is almost four times heavier than a proton.
