On November 13, 2012, at the Hadron Collider Physics Symposium in Kyoto, another round of data will be released, and it is expected to show additional confirmation that this is a Higgs boson.

The physics machine, called the Large Hadron Collider, is a 17-mile hollow ring underneath Switzerland and France built by CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research.

FORBES: Taking Bets On The Large Hadron Collider

It may be about to happen in particle physics - if neither the Tevatron nor Large Hadron Collider spots a Higgs boson soon, the standard model that scientists have worked with for years may have to be abandoned, or at least seriously reformed, and another built in its place.

Likewise, other new physics is now more likely to be uncovered at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, which will add to our knowledge base.
