Best proof yet of 'the God particle'

After decades of careful experiment, physicists say they have found the "strongest indication to date" to prove the existence of the Higgs boson -- a subatomic particle so important to the understanding of space, time and matter that the physicist Leon Lederman nicknamed it "the God particle."

The announcement today, based on experiments at the Department of Energy's Fermilab near Chicago and other institutions, is not the final word, but it's very close. And it comes just before a major meeting this week in Australia, where more findings will be announced from the giant underground particle accelerator at CERN, the great physics lab in the Alps on the French-Swiss border.

"This is one of the cornerstones of how we understand the universe," said Rob Roser, a Fermilab physicist, "and if it's not there, we have to go back and check our assumptions about how the universe exists."

Roser said he expected the CERN scientists to offer more evidence of the Higgs particle, though they will also be cautious. "The Higgs particle, if it's real, will show itself in different ways. We need for all of them to be consistent before we can say for sure we've seen it."

Fermilab has been home to an atom smasher called the Tevatron, which was shut down last year because CERN's Large Hadron Collider is more powerful. Scientists who used the Tevatron have been sifting through the masses of data they collected by sending subatomic particles crashing into each other at nearly the speed of light.

"During its life, the Tevatron must have produced thousands of Higgs particles, if they actually exist, and it's up to us to try to find them in the data we have collected," said Luciano Ristori, a physicist at Fermilab and the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics, in a statement. "We have developed sophisticated simulation and analysis programs to identify Higgs-like patterns. Still, it is easier to look for a friend's face in a sports stadium filled with 100,000 people than to search for a Higgs-like event among trillions of collisions."

The particle was first proposed in the 1960s by the English physicist Peter Higgs. The international effort to find it has taken decades, using tremendous amounts of energy to crash subatomic particles into each other in giant underground tracks, where they are steered by magnetic fields. Several different experiments have been done by independent teams to ensure accuracy.

Finding the Higgs particle would not be of practical value, at least not yet, but Roser argued that when the electron was first discovered in 1897, nobody guessed how it would lead to the high-tech, wired world we have today.

Physicists say the Higgs boson would help explain why we, and the rest of the universe, exist. It would explain why the matter created in the Big Bang has mass, and is able to coalesce. Without it, as CERN explained in a background paper, "the universe would be a very different place?. no ordinary matter as we know it, no chemistry, no biology, and no people."

Sony buys Gaikai: The end of console gaming?

3 hrs.

Winda Benedetti

As video?game enthusiasts await the launch of the next generation of game consoles, one of the three big gaming powerhouses has made an interesting move -- one that could change the way we play video games in our homes.

Sony Computer Entertainment?announced Monday that it has just purchased Gaikai -- a cloud gaming company?that uses the Internet to stream video games from distant servers directly to your home computer, digital TV and even your tablet and?phone.

Sony bought Gaikai for $380 million and the maker of the PlayStation game machine apparently has big plans for its shiny new property.

?SCE will deliver a world-class cloud-streaming service that allows users to instantly enjoy a broad array of content ranging from immersive core games with rich graphics to casual content anytime, anywhere on a variety of internet-connected devices,??Andrew House, president of Sony Computer Entertainment, said in a press release.?

What makes Gaikai and its cloud gaming competitor -- OnLive -- so interesting is that these companies offer a service that lets you play the kind of high-end?games you typically?play on?a home console (like, say, your PlayStation 3) on almost any web-connected device. With?Gaikai tackling?the heavy?game?processing loads on its own servers, you're free to play "Mass Effect 3" via?Facebook and "Alan Wake" in Chrome, Firefox or Explorer. You don't have to download the games, own a game?console or have a high-end gaming PC. You simply stream them -- like you would, say, a movie through Netflix.

So what does this mean for those game boxes we've become so used to playing our games with?-- the Xbox, the PlayStation, the Wii? And what does it mean now that new machines are reportedly in the works? Is this the beginning of the end of console gaming?

Nintendo will launch its new console -- the Wii U -- this holiday. Meanwhile, though both?Sony and Microsoft have not yet revealed details about their?next game consoles -- the successors to the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 -- there is no doubt both companies are working on them. In fact, many analysts?expect these next-gen machines to launch next year.

But?Michael Pachter, a game analyst for WedBush Morgan, doesn't believe?consoles are?going to be made?obsolete by cloud gaming services such as Gaikai?... at least not any time soon.

He told me?he expects Sony to?integrate?Gaikai into smart TVs, the PlayStation Network ?as well as the next?generation of PlayStation machines.

"I think initially, they'll offer a lot of catalog (PlayStation 1 and 2 games), and maybe allow people to play more casual games through smart TVs, but ultimately, they will require a PlayStation 4 in order to access content in the cloud," he said.?

In fact,?he said he thinks Sony is taking Gaikai out "as a strategic move, keeping them from the hands of somebody who would let you play games without a console."

Jesse Divnich, game analyst for?Electronic Entertainment Design and Research, agrees that consoles aren't going away in lieu of cloud delivery ... at least not?right away.

"Right now there are some bandwidth issues," he told me in an interview. "Not everyone has the high Internet speeds to make cloud entertainment?work."

Indeed, when I fire up "Mass Effect 3" in my browser via Gaikai, the game looks choppy if not?downright ugly ?thanks to wavering Internet speeds here at my house. Just because you can play a high-end,?triple-A game in your?browser, it?doesn't mean you'll want to.

But that is today. As broadband spreads and picks up speed with each passing?year, tomorrow will?look very different.?"No one will disagree that cloud technology is the future of delivery," Divnich told me, calling?Sony's purchase of Gaikai "a genius decision to future proof their company."

"This actually goes well beyond video games," he said. "This is a technology that can be used to deliver all forms of digital entertainment."

As for the next generation of game consoles,?Divnich said that he believes they?will use some form of cloud delivery. But after that ...?we will eventually say goodbye to our home game boxes.

"It does tend to take a?while?for consumers to transition technologies," he said. "But 10 years from now, the idea of having a set top box to play games --?that is probably going to go away and all of that is probably going to be handled?through the television."

And as?Divnich?points out, "One of the best and biggest?manufacturers?of televisions is Sony."

Hornets' pick Rivers on coach Williams' radar for more than six years

NEW ORLEANS ? Austin Rivers sat to the left of Anthony Davis, the media horde surrounding his table smaller than the one encircling the No. 1 pick.

Not that he cared. Not now.

While the focus is on Davis and what he?ll bring to a Hornets franchise seemingly on the way up, Rivers? role might be just as important.

And, maybe even more important, is that he knows what?s expected of him.

?I know what you need to do to succeed,? said the 6-foot-4 Rivers, son of Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers. ?But you?ve still got to go out and do it. This is a man?s league and you?ve got such great players I?ve idolized my whole life.? I?ve just got to go out there and earn it.?

It?s that attitude that Hornets coach Monty Williams is excited to have in his locker room.

?He doesn?t like to lose,? Williams said Friday, moments after the duo was introduced formally in New Orleans. ?He?s just competitive. That?s what we want.?

Williams would know.

He has known the Rivers family since the mid-1990s, when he first played with Doc in New York.

Williams eventually played for Rivers in Orlando and their families have been friendly ever since.

In other words, Williams was already familiar with Austin as this year?s draft approached. In fact, he had an extremely advanced scouting report on the now former Duke standout.

?Doc talked to me about Austin when he was in the 7th or 8th grade,? Williams said. ?He would always say, ?Monty, he has a chance.? He never said he was going to make it to the NBA, but he would just say, ?Monty, he has a chance.? And I was like, ?Really? Austin?? ?

More than six years later, both Williams and Doc Rivers have their answer.

And Austin Rivers sees himself being able to fulfill a role that?s less bit and more full. He believes he?s similar to Oklahoma City?s Russell Westbrook, San Antonio?s Tony Parker or Chicago?s Derrick Rose.

At least, those are players he hopes to be compared to one day.

?Just attacking point guards,? Rivers said. ?You look at Russell, he?s getting better and better at learning how to get everybody else involved.?

Rivers was a third-team All-American as selected by the coaches, leading Duke with 15.5 points per game. He ranks in the top five in seven different freshman categories at Duke, including points (third), points per game (third), free throws and attempts (first) as well as 20-point games (fifth).

Now he?s looking forward to playing alongside Davis, the AP Player of the Year and athletic 6-10 defensive nightmare for opponents.

It?s not Davis? defensive prowess that?s making Rivers already excited for July rookie league in Las Vegas.

?I?ve been thinking about it all the time,? Rivers said when asked about the pick-and-roll possibilities with Davis. ?It makes my job so much easier. I can throw the ball basically anywhere and those long arms can go and catch it and dunk it. It?s going to be cool.?
