How the Discovery of the Higgs Boson Could Break Physics
In the run-up to the announcement of the Higgs boson discovery, we wondered what finding the elusive particle would mean for physics. Turns out that what was going to be great for the Standard Model of physics, could be potentially disastrous for another well-loved theory: supersymmetry. The problem is that the Higgs isn't strange enough, and the LHC was failing to turn up any other evidence of supersymmetry.
