Earlier today the CMS paper titled “Observation of ttH Production” was accepted for publication by Physical Review Letters. In this article, the CMS collaboration presented the first observation of the coupling between the Higgs boson and the top quark. The strength of this coupling as measured by CMS is consistent with the Standard Model expectation. This observation connects for the first time directly the two heaviest elementary particles of the Standard Model: the top quark, which was discovered in 1995…

If you have ever tried to watch a movie or listen to music on a plane, then you know the problem well: The roar of the engines makes it difficult to hear what’s being piped through the speakers — even when those speakers are situated in or on your ear.
MINERvA measures the energy a neutrino imparts to protons and neutrons inside a heavy nucleus.
The PICO experiment homes in on dark matter.
A new result from the LHCb experiment could be an early indicator of an inconsistency in the Standard Model.
CDF has updated their indirect determination of the W boson mass using all of their Tevatron Run II data samples.
NOvA announces its first cross section measurement, the probability than an electron neutrino interacts with the protons and neutrons inside the NOvA near detector. The measurement draws on the largest data set in the electron neutrino energy region from 1 GeV to 3 GeV.
The DZero experiment will present a special Wine and Cheese seminar, “Observation of a new resonance state in the Bs pi system” this Thursday, Feb. 25, at 4 p.m. in One West. The seminar will be video streamed at http://vms.fnal.gov/asset/livevideo and the slides will be posted at http://theory.fnal.gov/jetp/. Mark your calendar to attend!
CMS scientists searches events where collisions resulted in two energetic jets, called “dijet” events, with unprecedented masses.
CDF has completed its last measurement of top quark forward-backward asymmetry, using the full Tevatron Run II data set, in the scenario where both the top quark and antiquark decay leptonically.
