Scientists say they have found signs of the elusive Higgs boson, known as the ‘God particle’, which is thought to give atoms their mass.
The elementary sub-atomic particle is believed to have played a vital role in the creation of the universe after the Big Bang.
The leaders of two independent experiments, Atlas and CMS, revealed their findings to a packed seminar at the CERN physics research centre near Geneva, where they have tried to find traces of the boson by smashing particles together at near light-speed in the Large Hadron Collider.

Bend Desk is a prototype interactive display that takes the digital workspace from the screen to the desktop by the media computing group at RWTH aachen university. While a typical work setup combines a flat desktop with a vertical computer screen, bend desk combines the two into one single unit. bend desk is a vision for a future workspace that allows continuous interaction between both areas. using multi-touch technology, the display curves from a horizontal plane to a vertical plane.
