AWhat changed
The two experiments separately report signals of a new particle, central observations in the discovery of the Higgs boson.
Scientific scope
The two experiments separately report signals of a new particle, central observations in the discovery of the Higgs boson. Scope limitation: The 2012 discovery papers remain distinct from later spin, parity and coupling measurements. Experimental teams and theorists who proposed the Higgs mechanism receive separate attribution. Both independent experimental sources are retained.
Evidence
Assessment uses the catalogue-linked source evidence for the stated contribution. The 2012 discovery papers remain distinct from later spin, parity and coupling measurements. Experimental teams and theorists who proposed the Higgs mechanism receive separate attribution. Both independent experimental sources are retained.
