Careful to note here, this is ONLY a rumour; Neil deGrasse Tyson posted about this possibility as well so figured worth noting until we know for sure.

HUGE discovery if in fact true.

Large Hadron Collider rival Tevatron 'has found Higgs boson', say rumours

Rumours are emerging from the rival to the Large Hadron Collider that the Higgs boson, or so-called "God particle", has been found.

And the denial by the Tevatron team:

Quote:
A spokesman for the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory told the Telegraph: "The rumour of evidence for the Higgs boson is just that: a rumour, with no factual basis.

"Beyond that, we don't comment on rumours."

I'll remain very skeptical, hopefully the rumour is based on some promising evidence found, but we'll see how this end up soon enough I'm sure.
