back to article Boffinry bitchslap brouhaha: Higgs and Hawking head to head

Famous retired physics prof Peter Higgs - of boson renown - has stingingly counter-poohpoohed the theories of his equally well known Nobel Prize rival, Stephen Hawking, who has already poohpoohed Higgs' particle concept. The clash of intellects is expected to be settled by particle-punishment results at the Large Hadron Collider …

    Question...

    I was explaining to the missus that, in a sense, it's more exciting if they *don't* find the Higgs boson, because then they'll have to re-draft the standard model.

    So... she says, does that mean they'll have to spend another fifty billion?

    No, says I, because all those years of data from CERN and Fermilab could be re-examined.

    But hang on. There must have been monstrous amounts of data collected over the years. How much of it has been kept, and how much discarded because it was deemed not to show anything interesting?

    Huge Assumption

    Of course, there is the possibility that neither of these two "boffins" are correct. Scientists who treat theory like fact are no better than anyone who believes in a religion. It's not a fact if it's based on faith and flimsy rationalisation.

    The last thing science needs is "My God's better than your God" type arguements.

    @Neil

    To try and answer your question...

    CERN have a very strange data retention policy. Basically they back up data using in-house software to tape and hope it gets saved. As they collect so much data the loss of one, or more, sample(s) isn't considered significant (unless it's the one with the Higg's Boson in it!!). Recovery is a word and nothing more...

    They try and keep the data for many years so that as new data theories are developed they can re-analyse their data against the new theory.

    One big problem is that tape technology is rapidly changing and they may not have the ability to recover all of the data they want. Also tapes deterioriate and CRC errors can occur effectively destroying a data stream. But, as mentioned, the loss of some data isn't considered significant so they don't really care...

    If only life was so easy in the real world.

    There's a reason they call it the "god particle"

    The Higgs Boson is supposed to be the "thing" that gives other particles their mass, begging the question... where does it get its mass from? Some other particle?

    The standard model seems flawed to me for this reason alone, the idea that you need some special "particle" to give mass to thing just strikes me as an attempt to fill a hole in the model. A "god particle" of the gaps, you might say.

    You know if they don't find it there'll be about half of them saying the thing is obviously even more elusive than we thought and that they need to build an even bigger accelerator to see it.

    As I recall the torrent of data is so great that the detectors (or ancillary equipment) do event selection in hardware; only the tiny fraction of interesting looking events are logged. Presumably "interesting" is not too closely tied to any particular existing or proposed model, so there'd be a reasonable hope that the recorded data is still useful.

    True story: I once went for an interview (*) where the very first question I was asked was

    "Do you find the Higgs mechanism esthetically pleasing?"

    After a bit of fumbling around I basically said "no", and failed the interview. I've kinda resented it's potential existence ever since So imagine my delight to find that, albeit 20 years late, Prof Hawking has come out in public to back my point of view :-)

    BTW, there is an icon here ( <-- ), it's just that you haven't yet got a monitor big enough to see it.

    Data Retention at CERN

    In the past (when LHC was just LEP), all the data from recorded "events" was backed up on two copies of Cipher tape (3600 bpi). Each truck load of backup sets was stored in two off-site locations, one in the US and one in Gloucestershire, UK.

    With the advent of the LHC plans were afoot to pick a different backup technology, but retain the same off-site storage locations; the chosen backup storage method was Toshiba’s HD-DVD technology and the two-off site storage locations were SecureVault Corp, floor 42 in World Trade Center Building No.2 and the underground storage facility at Tewkesbury.

    These plan are now under revision.

    You must have been reading the Vulture Central abridged description of the LHC. I'm pretty sure the unabridged version said the LHC is trying to simulate energy densities a short time AFTER the big bang.

    God Particle, Weight Loss, Shiney New Toys, and Bets

    I'd LIKE to believe in the mass-donating properties of a particle as an explanation about my own over-mass situation. It seems so elegant compared to the more mundane explanation of too much beer and chip molecules. And I bet there are physically tons of others who want to believe, too. CERN has just turned on the technology to remove the God-particle from protons and they're sitting on a gold-mine.

    Assuming success, it's just a matter of time before late night TV marketers will be offering personal hadron colliders for effortless, in-home use for three easy payments of 29.95 per month (plus postage and handling). Can I order one in advance?

    Oh yeah. The story was about Hawking and Higgs. I guess I just WANT to believe that Higgs finds his particle and proves the God-model and creates a market for in-home hadron colliders so I can have one.

    Of course, if the particle isn't found that won't prove the Atheist-model is correct but it won't create a weight-loss product either.

    Maybe like the SETI project they'll decide that hobbyists could collect and analyze data and they'll* offer in-home colliders to anybody who can cough up 6 easy payments of 39.95.month (plus postage and handling). Then I can have my toy anyway.

    And meanwhile Hawking will have to devise a test device to prove the Atheist-model -- potential for a new toy in 10 - 20 years to replace the worn out the collider.

    Anyway, I'd happily help Higgs and Hawking settle their bet, especially if I could lose a few God-particles in the process.

    They are both wrong. Dr. Tom won't find what his looking for, or evidence thereof. Dynamic Mass is a Hypervector, as is Extension and Time Flow. Each Hypervector works in combination with the others, each Hypervector has available to it 4 degrees of freedom of rotation. This means, in Linear terms, that there is 4 dimensions of Extension, 4 dimensions of Time Flow, and 4 Dimensions of Dynamic Mass, with all four linear dimensions perpendicular to each other. Neutrinos do for Protons, what photons do for electrons, help them change energy levels relative to something larger. As nice and well thought out of a design that the LHC is, it still is configured wrong to 'see' what it is that for which they are looking. They need to be able to determine the angle and momentum induced on a sensor pixel, not just count the particles of a particular energy, they need to include the geometry of the sensor array, 100,000,000 data collectors (if I recall correctly), to see if they get 'bent'. Genertaing an image based on the sensor geometry, and tracking the paths, IMHO, will gain them more and better data with which they would better be able to see what it that for which they are seaching.

    Actually, black holes don't destroy information as such, but as they appear to be infinite entropy objects, they simply reduce the data to a very disorganised state (a bit like a Microsoft database product).

    Apparently, if Hawking radiation theory is correct, eventually as they evaporate they will re-emit the data in the form of a collimated stream of radiation — veeeerrrry slowly.

    This way, little problems like conservation of energy and thermodynamics all balance out at the end of time (as soon as that, huh?) and everything will coalesce back to its original state!

    In this case the absence of proof is proof. The Standard Model predicts that the LHC should see the reminant particles of the Higgs as it is so short lived. If the predicted particles aren't there the theory is wrong.

    Personally I agree with Hawkins...

    Einstein's Relativity is beautifully elegant, whilst the Standard Model maths runs at 30+ pages of horribly inelegant equations full of kludges fixes & assumptions.
