We asked physicists to predict the discoveries that will blow our minds in the coming years.
Here are five possibilities, at least as good as the Higgs.
4) The discovery of supersymmetry at CERN. A whole new world of particles and the first big home run for superstring theory. According to the Standard Model, how often the Higgs boson interacts or falls apart—these two things are interchangeable for particle physicists—that sort of depends on the mass of the other particle of the Higgs, for that matter. That means that you can predict how often they should be made. When you make a Higgs boson, often the Higgs boson should make those particles.
The main goal for us will be to pinpoint the “flavour anomalies” in particles containing b quarks. I am very excited that these exhibit a discrepancy with the Standard Model: There seem to be too few b quarks transforming into pairs of muons as compared to electrons. I started this study in LHCb 10 years ago, so will watch it very closely. The enormous amount of data we will be collecting in the next 10 years will tell us.
