      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Physics news 4th August 2020</p>

<p>I asked about this on Twitter earlier. More to ask if I was right in thinking a dimuon was two muons together.</p>

<p>The full article can be found below.</p>
<ul><li><a href="https://news.fnal.gov/2020/08/cern-experiments-announce-first-indications-of-a-rare-higgs-boson-process/" rel="nofollow">CERN experiments announce first indications of a rare Higgs boson process</a>.<br></li></ul>

<p>Lots of interesting things happening at FermiLab then.</p>

<pre><code>“US CMS is very proud to acknowledge the significant impact made by its members in deploying innovative analysis techniques, including cutting-edge AI methods, which were critical in establishing the evidence for Higgs boson decays into a muon and antimuon pair,” 
</code></pre>

<p>It may be an idea to have an understanding, or a copy of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Model" rel="nofollow">standard model of particle physics</a> to hand.</p>

<p>This is also being discussed on the <a href="https://discourse.qoto.org/" rel="nofollow">qoto discourse instance</a>. Where there is also an updated standard model graphic.</p>

<p>You may also find <a href="https://www.scienceforums.net" rel="nofollow">Science Forums</a> a good place to discuss.</p>

<p>This has also prompted me to try and figure out how to typeset the basic equation in LaTeX.</p>

<p>\$$H\longrightarrow \mu^{–} + \overline{\mu^{+}} $</p>

<p>So to quote the $\textit{news.fnal.gov}$ website</p>
<ul><li>Please ignore the $&#39;s at either side of the equation, these will be removed at some point.</li></ul>
