Article Synopsis
  • The Higgs boson, crucial for the standard model of particle physics, helps mediate the weak force between elementary particles, and its mass is closely regulated by the model's symmetries.
  • Researchers measured the mass of the boson using data from proton-antiproton collisions at the Tevatron collider, accumulating about 4 million candidates to achieve a very precise measurement.
  • This new mass measurement shows a significant discrepancy with what is expected from the standard model, suggesting potential gaps in our current understanding of particle physics.

Importance: The appropriate approach for weight loss among children and adolescents with overweight and obesity remains unclear.

Objective: To evaluate the difference in the treatment outcomes associated with behavioral weight loss interventions led by laypersons and professionals in comparison with unsupervised control arms among children and adolescents with overweight and obesity.

Data Sources: For this systematic review and meta-analysis, the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Embase, the Cochrane Library, and Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) databases were searched from January 1, 1996, to June 1, 2019.

A search for the exotic meson X(5568) decaying into the B_{s}^{0}π^{±} final state is performed using data corresponding to 9.6  fb^{-1} from pp[over ¯] collisions at sqrt[s]=1960  GeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. No evidence for this state is found and an upper limit of 6.

The CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron have measured the asymmetry between yields of forward- and backward-produced top and antitop quarks based on their rapidity difference and the asymmetry between their decay leptons. These measurements use the full data sets collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt[s]=1.96  TeV.
