I was watching the entire video seminar from press release at CERN directly. This made me really proud to be a physics student.

This discovery is on the same level like Einstein's General/Special theory of relativity or E=mc^2. Perhaps even the scientific find of the century. Now with a bit more research we will see how this fits into the standard model and interacts with other bosons and fermions. Maybe we will even get a clue if this new particle relates to dark matter. Good times.
