Should the Higgs boson have caused our universe to collapse? Findings puzzle cosmologists British cosmologists are puzzled: they predict that the universe should not have lasted for more than a second. This startling conclusion is the result of combining the latest observations of the sky with the recent discovery of the Higgs boson. >>In the new research, KCL scientists have investigated what the BICEP2 observations mean for the stability of the Universe so they combined the results with recent advances in particle physics. >>Measurements of the Higgs boson have allowed particle physicists to show our universe sits in the Higgs field, which describes the way that other particles have mass...BUT there is a different valley which is much deeper, but our universe is preventing from falling into it by a large energy barrier.
