Large Hadron Collider experiments detect the first "man-made" neutrinos
The least-studied particles in the Standard Model have finally been caught
Large Hadron Collider's experiments detect the first evidence of Higgs boson decay
Why it matters: Since discovering the Higgs boson in 2012, scientists have thoroughly studied the strange particle looking for new clues about the true nature of matter and the universe. Now, CERN researchers say they have observed exciting and vital behavior with the particle's decay that extends beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.
