What I read was: "Hungarian scientists may have found a fifth force of nature." The operative word is MAY. _________________________________________________________________________ “A man’s treatment of a dog is no indication of the man’s nature, but his treatment of a cat is. It is the crucial test. None but the humane treat a cat well.” -- Mark Twain, 1902 | |||

I read it as "We really think we can justify our next research grant!" Wasn't the Higgs-Boson supposed to revolutionize our understanding of the universe? I'm starting to think physicists are just very good salesmen of the unknown and the esoteric. Real science is very rare these days, nobody will pay for it. | |||

It seems like a number of other teams, at other well known institutions have been trying to disprove it, and have so far failed.
If it did, would you know?

Exactly. A further elaboration might be..."scientists see something they can't explain, understand, or replicate at this point." Lots of arrogance is also part of that equation. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

This article states that they did replicate it, and offered and explanation as well... Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Agree that they did repeat it (took 3 years) but the explanation could be as simple as not all atoms/isotopes/particles split at the same angle. This and beryllium 8 might just be oddballs or there are more.

"The study's lead scientist, Attila Krasznahorkay, told CNN that this was the second time his team had detected a new particle...". I read that as they witnessed the phenomenon occur more than once but could not force it to occur. And their explanation is a bit weak by any measure. At any rate, they're a loooooooooooooooong way from proving anything. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

A story published by CNN.... Pronoun: His Royal Highness and benevolent Majesty of all he surveys 343 - Never Forget Its better to be Pavlov's dog than Schrodinger's cat There are three types of mistakes; Those you learn from, those you suffer from, and those you don't survive. | |||

Wait, what? |
I also remember that on more than one occasion, scientists claim to have initiated cold fusion. Unable to duplicate, IIRC. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Damnation, I knew I should have written a paper on the fundamental force I first encountered in 1974. That fundamental force manifests itself when a male reaches reproductive maturity and a voluptuous female enters their orbit of situational awareness.

It's Elsa. Sorry for the spoiler, scientists, but I saw Frozen 2 last night. She's the 5th Force. | |||

It was reported by CNN. The article links to a Cornell article. I am on my phone so it would be a real pain to track it further.
