Yes, that did actually answer my question. I think what is safe to say is that the hone-in is much more accurate because of it. Rather than allowing for more error, we essentially can make a more predictable outcome. Correct?
As for Hadron, I thought they had observed dark matter. Apparently I am not with the times.
Correct, assuming that the excess will stay and that it is not an issue with the mismodelling of the background (which is being investigated at the time I write).
They discovered many things, in particular the Higgs boson in 2012 and various composite states. In the last case, it is interesting to emphasise a new charmed tetraquark particle two days ago; this will be the topic of my next post but I don't think I won't find the time to write that post before next week. The LHC has also revealed various intriguing features, but it is too early to conclude anything about them.
